new marvel legends revealed

Recommended Posts

Anyone have any more insight on the Marvel Legends style Boomerang and Beetle figures that were revealed at SDCC, especially as to which series they are going to appear in? Judging by the Spidey display pics, I am guessing they might show up in the Spider-Man ML line, possibly with The Black Cat. They look great, I just hope they actually are found on the toy shelves.

OK, I am totally in for:

 

Moonstone

Radioactive Man

AIM goon

NOW! Cap

movie Widow

Black Cat

Venom

Rescue

IM3 War Machine

 

and that's a LOT for a cherry-picker like me who already has a ton of awesome Marvel superarticulated toys.

The NOW! Captain America looks amazing, could turn out to be a highlight of the line, and might replace my current Cap, although I agree with Cobra Officer that the paint leaves a bit to be desired. I can fix that.

Black Cat looks to be the best-looking superarticulated female-shaped superhero toy ever. Will have to wait till I have her in hand but MAN that might set a new standard. Nice job, team.

 

Oddly enough the only unreleased variant I want is Bulldozer. I don't want any of the other Wrecking Crew, I just love the look of that toy.

And since tooling has been done on these things, the guys seem pretty confident that they can release them via some venue or other just to make back the investment.

We'll see. I'll remain optimistic.

 

Songbird is a total letdown. Not just because she's on that skinny body that I hate, but it just came out badly. I've been campaigning for a Songbird forever because she has such a toyetic look, but that came out terrible. I bet that move Black Widow's head would work great for Songbird, but it's still a badly done piece all around and a decent head will only take it so far.

I guess Bulldozer can go in the Avengers 2 wave, or they could try to sneak it in the Cap legends, the same way the Rocket Raccoon series case comes with an Ultimate Cap and the Punisher red repaint. I too was disappointed with Songbird it just looks off the head looks too big for the body and it completely throws off the figure, funny thing I have seen people complaining about the lack of wings when the figure itself looks bad no amount of plastic wings is gonna save that figure I'm hoping it was a kit bashed quick prototype and the final product doesn't look like that.

You are correct they are gonna be part of the Spider Man movie legends along with Black Cat and movie figures and the BAF which is gonna be Ultimate Green Goblin.

 

Thanks for the info, my only gripe now is that the BAF Ultimate Green Goblin is absolutely terrible.

That would be nice. I always say, wait till you see it in person, but that is getting so much harder these days. I hardly see anything in person and order from online sellers almost exclusively.

Not by choice, I just haven't seen anything on the shelves here in years, except Heroic Age Iron Man.

I think as this wave gets better distribution, the prices will drop.

I had a brain storm today and simply asked a LCS to hold a Jean for me when they get their Rocket Racoon wave in. "Yeah, sure" the guy said.

 

Can it be that easy?????

 

She'll be marked up a good $7 there, but I'd happily pay it if I can get her with no hassle. I asked if he knew when they'd get it in and he said he didn't know and that MLs ALWAYS come in late. That's completely fine with me since "late" is relative. Compare "late" to places like Target or Walmart in which case you'd be talking "never".

Might as well buy a case from BBTS...

 

 

That's outrageous charging when the figures it not even out yet. I'm avoiding a case with this wave since it's coming with yet another Ultimate Cap and Punisher with the skull painted red and I really don't want to get those.

Jean's everywhere on ebay now. And her price is getting lower and lower.

 

Ya, I picked one up on eBay for $29.00 the other day. I probably should have waited to see if she started selling for even less, but I was worried it might not happen and prices would increase. Either way, it was better than paying $99.99 and being stuck with 4 figures I didn't want.

She'll probably go lower as time goes she has some stiff competition with Wrecker who seems to go up and down in price sporadically and was also a fan requested character. Personally I'm not in a hurry to get these even though I like the wave as a whole and would love to have Jean Grey but I'll wait for a good chance to get her. I'm thinking of just getting the 3 that come with BAF parts first and then wait out on the others.
