That's Bandai's intent with them, provided they sell well. They're supposed to be the PR version of Marvel Legends, thus why they come with BAF pieces instead of additional weapons.

I am sure they'll find a way to correct the signature weapon issue. It's already being discussed apparently. We'll see if they address it this weekend.

They should have also thrown in the green ranger gold chest armor for both red and black because the 4 inch line has red wearing it as well.... im ready for wave 2 already bring on white ranger.

Except they are failing miserably if their intention is to copy Marvel Legends. The ML figures come with a BAF and accessories. They come with all of the weapons necessary for their character, these rangers do not. Bandai only has to make two different body molds for each team, a female one and a male one, so when you have a team of 4 male characters, the only different is the head, so they are clearly cheapening out here. Not to mention Yellow Ranger having a girl body when they should either do both or do a male body.

These were just delivered:

I was looking forward to this wave and it doesn't disappoint, I think Silk and Electro are my favourites.

Zorn88 · 08-09-2016, 09:02 PM

Went to go grab the new MMPR figures, but found this guy and couldn't pass him up for the price.

Thanks, it really is a great wave. The only characters I have any emotional attachment to are Silk and Miles Morales but the other figures are all so nice there isn't one I've considered selling. Silk really is great, one of the nicest if not nicest female Marvel Legends sculpts. I've found her a bit challenging to pose dynamically and have her stand up but I'm starting to get the hang of it.
Anyone who is still on the fence about this wave of figures, I really recommend getting them they are great.

That is MOTUC Anti-Eternia He-man. It is a "chase" figure that only pops up for sale for a couple hours during random times. Your best bet is to get one off MattyCollector in November or December as chase figures are usually posted during their end of year sales.

Looks like silk , I know in past some of the female ML I wasn't too impressed with (example black cat). But yeah became a fan of silk from her series , like what I have read so far.

erastop · 08-10-2016, 02:02 PM

I've been on an Ant-Man high the past month.
First I picked up the Giant Man Funko pop (retail price), then the Scott Lang MS Ant Man figure, then I painted the ML Ant Man mouthpiece, then I picked up the regular Funko Pop Ant Man and THEN I bid on this collector corps exclusive which JUST arrived today! 😀

Silk totally took me by surprise, and has become one of my favorite members of the Spidey family in years.
Nothing against Spider-Gwen, who I really enjoy in small doses, but I find it odd that Silk hasn't become nearly as popular as SG. But then again, I think that quite a bit of Gwen's fame is due to the trendy, hypebeast, bandwagon mentality that sometimes surfaces in the world of comics (lol, I'm looking at you Deadpool

)

But anyways, yeah, I'm going to be soooo excited when I finally find Silk !

I got mine off eBay. Didn't Matty close, or has that not happened yet?

Personally I'd get one off eBay since the price of mine wasn't too bad and I'm in the UK!

MattyCollector.com does not close until the end of 2016, as that is when all the current subscriptions end. I would expect some major sales on their website in November/December too.

Dr Kain · 08-11-2016, 08:12 AM

Thundercats for non-subscribers now on clearance for $9.99. :-D

Oh wait, no, that will be the price we find them at Ross and TJ Maxx next Summer.
