Marvel Legends ARCHANGEL & Apocalypse Claw action figure review by erivera94

[erivera94]

Take a first look at the new classic Archangel marvel legends action figure in this video review...

 

 

[GojiBill]

Perfect character to use as an extension to the Apocalypse wave. Kudos to Hasbro for listening to the fans and including an shapeshifting part for Apocalypse.

Damn, I didn’t know this figure was already available... Gonna have to track one down!

Yea, Marvel Legends have been coming out hot and heavy. Seems like they’re on the shelves just a few weeks/months from being showcased. I’ve already seen the Apocalypse, SP//DR, Sauron, and M. Venom waves in a few of the stores around my area.

I’m keeping an eye on discount stores too. Ever since the end of Toys r Us some good stuff has been popping up in places like 5 Below. The entire GOTG ML wave (Mantis BAF) can be found at 5 Below.

Does anyone know when this is supposed to come out officially? BBTS has it scheduled for December and Gamestop has it for next week but I don't know if thats just a place holder or not.

Not sold on the new color scheme. I prefer the darker, shiny previous one. Just a personal preference. Will probably combined both versions.

I don’t know if we have any 5 Below stores in my area — but I’m gonna be looking it up, with that in mind. The only local store I ever seem to find recent ML releases in, when I’ve been able to get out to it, is Target. I may be making a trip out, as funds permit.

This is a definite mus have for all X-Men collector.  I know that is a reissue with different paint and the added Adam Warlock heads. I don't care. I still have to figure out a way to get my hands on that Apocalypse wave.  The wings in this figure are awesome! If hasbro put some other horsemen with additional Apocalypse hands I would go crazy.

Yes it's true. I officially jealous as hell.

That’s crazy! I actually found out that there is one store location that I could get to, via bus. But, that’s not going to happen for a while, as I’m dead broke, right now.

Tell me about it. I see the new releases and the only thing that I can do is wave at them.  The only way to get figures now is by gift.

I feel you, mate... I talk a lot about my budgetary restrictions, because it’s legit, I’m lucky if I can afford a $20 figure a month. Sometimes, I can get a couple. But, that’s only when — and if — I can find them. And even then, the fact that I live stateside, and can get them with any regularity at all, is probably more of a chance than you’ve got, by what I’ve seen you say in the past.

I really do wish these things were much more easy to find and attain.

You guys at US are still lucky. Can order online and get it in your home. I have to pay stupid impor feed and taxes or jump through several hoops to get it. I get pissed when I do that math and realize that what I pay here gets 2 or 3 figures in the US. 

Hey thingswill look better for us. I try to stay positive.

That’s the bottom line, really... Stay positive — or, as positive as possible, at any rate — and try your best not to let that stuff get you down. There have been a lot of occasions where I wanted something, and I couldn’t get it right away. Sometimes, a long while went by, and I’d even forgotten about it. And yet, in time, whatever that thing was, found its way into my hands. You never know what is going to happen, especially when you feel like the only luck that you have is bad luck. But, there’s always good coming again, just over the horizon.

Missed out on the last Archangel but definitely will get this one.

[MLs4life]

Also I like the Apocalypse claw. Wish there were more parts for him though

I'm gonna ask one of my friends who live close to a FB to pick up and ship to me those $5 Legends. Maybe you should try.

I love this set too, Maybe an extra chainsaw hand would've been cool though.

If hasbro were smart, they would make more of the horsemen and give them each an attachment to put one the Apocalypse figure. 

 

[MLs4life]

They could've also put an extra hand with Wolverine. I'm still really happy from what Hasbro gave us tho

That's a great idea. Maybe even a 2-pack, lots of space in the box to fit in some hands.

I’m glad someone mentioned this guy, as I forgot about him... Especially after watching the gameplay footage, I’m definitely gonna want to pick him up!

Remember that if they go very classic they will have to put the horses too.  Also, the price tag will not be cheap. Around $50 to $70.
