I'm really torn on that Shriek figure. Her hair looks weird to me the way the bangs look sort of slapped on but if i can ever get a hold of a Carnage and Demogoblin figure and they do a proper blue Venom with a non-inflated head and a Doppelganger based around the new Spidey buck, she would be a must. Hard decision considering how many other criteria I need for a Maximum Carnage crew.

Hope you know I'm not being argumentative but my logic is coming from just what I see in terms of how much plastic Hasbro is willing to use vs their cost. I know Vulture came with some extras but that doesn't always happen for every figure. How many times have we all been on here complaining about a lack of accessories for this or that piece? For instance, my favorite 3 figures from Legends are the Alex Ross Cap, Iron Man and Thor. Iron Man came with 4 blast effects, 2 fists, 2 blasting hands and 2 extra heads. Cap had a shield, 2 fists, 2 O-hands and a throwing effect hand. Thor had Mjolnir and an extra fist. What? Did his cape count as an accessory? It's a dice roll on every figure. Bottom line: I just don't see Hasbro willing to spend the money on a Redwing mold as well as the extra paint. Granted, they would likely just mold it in brown and not paint him. Between the wings and extra hands that to me is probably as far as Hasbro will go on a character like the Falcon. Hopefully I eat my words.

Both of these are pretty lazy releases since Falcon is a slightly different paint app and Loki includes knives and a new head. I'll get the Falcon because he's one of my favorite characters but I have the original Loki and definitely don't need this one. That would be considered and accessory and since he already comes with wings, no way we can have Redwing since it would hurt Hasbro's profit margin. Lord knows we can't have that.

More rehashing of older, better ideas I see. There's only one Avengers Forever and that's the Kurt Busiek masterpiece. Not only are they re-using the old title but it's being written by Jason Aaron. Yeah, that really instills hope for the story. Also, I guess we're to the point that everything needs laying out like an MCU phase now? Awesome.

A few things here I like. I might grab that shield pack but most of the weapons suck so I'll put some neca weapons with them like I did my Sharon Carter. Think I'll get 3 skrulls to sort of represent the first 3 that became cows in FF. That Spidey wave is garbage but I'll probably grab armadillo on ebay someday. I would be a little interested in shriek but her head looks like glued on hair. Not feeling it at all. Eternals still look like a waste of plastic.

Marvel Legends Sightings and Hauls thread
sentinelofliberty41 replied to aaozz9's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I figured the new packaging would be something more like what they use for their army builders on Hasbro Pulse. -
This looks like some kind of player 2 skin for Ermac or Noob Saibot on Mortal Kombat.

I'm on the exact same boat as you. I was really hoping for a good classic Thing but the headsculpts are bad, Sue would have been a must but she looks awful. Reed is known mainly for stretching his neck, torso and arms and we get long fingers? Flame on Torch looks good but he looked good before too and Johnny looks ok but I'd never display him flamed off. Oh well. I don't get it either. We're fresh on the heels of the recent She-Hulk which had the alternate relaxed expression which is one of the prettiest faces on a Legend ever. I just don't get it.

What a #$## reveal. Invisible Woman has one of the worst head sculpts I've seen in years. Thing isn't much better. Firey Torch is ok but aside from a few stripes he's basically the same as before and his flame off version is decent. Mr Fantastic looks good but he isn't good enough to replace my walgreens version. High evolutionary and Psycho Man are the best in the lot as they look great. Overall what a waste of a marvel special. Hasbro is getting lazy imo and just tossing out whatever they can at this point in the pandemic. Thankfully, I see nothing here worth spending money on

Captain America Anniversary set?
sentinelofliberty41 replied to tarot's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
That's true but considering how they handled the X-Men box set with Calisto, it could go the same way for a box.
