I just wish this set would come out already. The more images/video I see of it the more I want it in hand. November seems like forever away.

Amazon...please don't randomly cancel this preorder. God I'm stoked for this set.

All it would take for me to be all in on this line is a knee joint and a couple bucks cheaper (that'll never happen.) I'd love to have elbows too but knees would put them at the same articulation level as the 90s Marvel Superheroes line which is why I got into toys as a kid. That would get my nostalgia going way more than this. Moon Knight does look cool though.

I don't know what it is about the look of this thing but it just doesn't look like old school Sabretooth. I'll stick with the Apocalypse one.

Not sure about this new Agent look for Sleeper, all of those awkward vile's in his back, like some kind of Bane thing going on, I really liked Sleeper and thought he looked amazing as is, but of course they gotta prod and poke at things and can't let anything be, this new look is really giving me Radiation Ranger from Toxic Crusaders vibes.
I couldn't agree more. Sleeper had one of the most interesting designs for a symbiote. This is just weird looking.

I bought and watched the other two films so I'll at least pick it up when it drops on bluray eventually. It's not a movie I'll trudge out to a theater to see (no movie is anymore. ) I really dug the first movie and the second had some cool visuals but was a huge mess.

And that's why the Knull/Venom 2 Pack is my last Legends purchase. I get it but since my pay is staying the same while Legends increase' I have to back out. It's been fun though.

Looks like I'll be getting a couple issues of Thor. *sigh*

I'm pretty pumped for this and what's to come. That interior work is absolutely beautiful. I'm not crazy about Steve's weird collar but it's a minor issue. can't wait to check this out.

Quite a few reveals for me here. I'm definitely getting that Rhino, Madam Hydra to replace the hideous original one. US Agent is a must and I'll likely get 2 of Quake to try and make a Sharon Carter and Maria Hill to put with my Fury and Dum Dum. Great reveals today for sure.

I'm looking forward to this tomorrow. The Hawkeye on the bottom gives me hope that we might get a better version of him and if it does in fact have the skycycle, I'll put that with one of my Cap figures since he rode one too. Maybe since Jigsaw is there too we'll get more info on the second villains wave. Should be a good show tomorrow.

My biggest gripe is the dang price! Make these $5, and I’d buy all of em.
This right here. I know they're more decoration than toy so if they were a lower price point I'd grab a bunch and slap them all over my office. Its the same reason I don't collect anything from the ReAction line. Just too high for pretty art and a figure that isn't meant to be played with.

It really bugs me that it looks like Sam has a Septum piercing, I can't unseen it, and it's off.
I was just about to post this. The paint beneath his nose is really odd, otherwise this is a great headsculpt. I really like these and think Hasbro did a great job but the lack of wings for Sam shows me Hasbro cheaped out like usual. They know the wings are essential, they just didn't want to push the cost/pricing. I don't collect MCU but I will say complaints aside I could definitely see why someone would pick these up even without the wings.

Zemo is pre-order in Canada now, with a potential release date of the 18th , if you want to buy one off me I will gladly order you one.
also I know my local store as of 2 days ago still had a binary, want, I'll grab
I'm willing to help out my US people, nobody asks.
What would your cost be to ship to Tennessee? There's no chance I'll. E seeing this in store as all 5 walgreens in my area have almost completely phased out toys.

Oh man! I'm not an X-fan but I do hope this does well so that maybe they will branch into other characters/teams. The trading cards from the 90s were my introduction to comics when a friend showed me a Venom card. I'd be all over something like this for Spidey/Street characters and Avengers.

Because of the constant leaks that have been happening over the years as well as trying a preventing them so they can make a show and dance of the reveals so they can surprise people.
I think it has a lot more to do with their policy of making figures that aren't quite the version everyone wants and then later releasing an "upgraded" version to resell the same figure/character, thus they use code names to keep things hush hush so any current product continues to sell.
I really wish Toyfair had happened this year. I completely understand being safe over covid concerns but god I hate that we have no idea what's coming save for things like this and random guesses until they do video updates.

Without a doubt, a must have figure. That said, I've recently been hitting all 5 of my local Walgreens to help a friend and their toy sections are non-existent. I'll definitely be hitting ebay for this.

I mean, it sucks but honestly I feel like that's about what I average paying for them anyway. Like I'm seeing others say, I'm really not surprised and 22.99 always felt like a placeholder pprice. Still,, Legends are the only toyline I collect and they're cheaper than anything else I'm interested in outside Marvel comics. Thank God I'm not a completionist, I just get who I like or have a personal attachment too.

It truly does not warrant this price point. New butterfly joints would be good. At the very least, a standard or even "metallic" shield should have been included. I get that the holes are for the impact strikes against the shield (bullets, lasers, etc) so that doesn't bother me as much as others. But just like the upcoming Dr. Strange & Iron Man, the cheesy base and postcard, plus the errors on the figures themselves, just make me feel Hasbro is playing the fans for chumps. Sure, put some really nice features on the figure, but then make this or that thing thats just flat wrong....so that when the inevitable "premium" version comes out, they'll buy that too.
Its not a horrible figure, absolutely not. I just don't think I can justify buying it. Definitely not getting the Iron Man 'cause they just made a mockery of that.
I'm sure that's the long game. They'll likely do a release of this without all the extras and give it a shield that doesn't have the holes in it. Iron Man is a joke, Hulk has one of the stupidest headsculpts I've ever seen (them sideburns...oof.) Hasbro's choices for so many figures lately have me losing interest in what was once my favorite line. It feels scummy the way they've used the fandom to double dip on figures so many times.

I have this on preorder and I'm excited to get him but it still turns my stomach to think how much he costs. There's nothing in this that tells me it's worth this much. Sure, we get some effects but the electricity makes no sense for Cap, the swoop piece is ok and the bullet pings are neat but it still pisses me off they compromised the integrity of the shield for those. The holes will make displaying him annoying unless we get a fan fix. Also the stand will probably end up bent up in a drawer somewhere. Regardless, I love the headsculpts and this will always be my favorite look for Steve.

I'm not super interested in the race aspect of Sam's book since I think his merits came from the man he is, not really his skin color. I still might give it a shot but it does smell of mcu tie-in. As for Steve, I'm looking forward to it but I'm also a little apprehensive since I'm unfamiliar with the talent involved.

No question for me on picking up a Knull and Venom 2 pack. Im curious about 90s Spidey as I missed out on the retro figure and need a classic Spider-man.

That Moondragon mock-up makes me realize just how much I would love to see it done. That's the definite pick for me.

Everything the reviewer said is why this figure isn't even on my radar. I would love a US Agent as Marc Gruenwald's Cap run is my favorite and this was an epic part of that run but John is bigger and taller than Cap. This could have been great but fell way short. Oh well, maybe in another 10 years.
