just get Toybiz's Ka'zar. you get the Tiger, the Loincloth is removeable and with the proper tweak, it'll fit. and you get all those nifty Ka'zar Accessories like the spear and shield

I'm doing the same thing with a lord of thunder thor head

Idk I think it's just the Marvel logo..But whatever...We don't work for them so who knows...IMO I think they are differant..but whatever...I still just think its just to conpensate for the lack of money that they don't make in the slow months...

Yes, I'm thinking of going for the FE, but had to stop myself for a moment:P Just going to watch them on evilbay to see...Sucks too cause I saw BB, Star and Arcee at the time but they were 15-18 retail, and passed on them, hoping they would go on sale. Boy was I wrong, didn't realize they were FE. Live and learn.

Yes Takara does have more variety and they do look better, but if I went into that line, oh man...can't even imagine :P

I agree, those were the best X-Men artist. At least for that era, I like Art Adams as well.

I also saw those same 3 tf's, went back for Arcee the next day and she was gone...I really wanted Voyager Megs and Optimus, dlx BULKHEAD, Cliffjumper. Oh well...

Marvel Kid · 02-02-2012, 05:56 PM

The toys are made from other countries, and the US dollars seems pretty weak right now if you guys have notice. That could be the reason why the toys' price has gone up high for you guys.

Tiberius · 02-02-2012, 05:57 PM

To all my Canadian brothers and sisters. Canadian dollar is worth more than USD as of now. If there is something you want on eBay, get it now!!

Be warned - that version of Zabu is bright orange and quite large - I had him standing next to my MU figures, but IMHO it did not look good so I had to buy another smaller Zabu. Here is the result: MU Custom Ka-Zar and Zabu Work in Progress - Toy Discussion at Toyark.com
You can buy the tiger (or as it is called smilodon) here:

Nope. The only Voyager Megs from TF Prime is in the RID line.

Diaper, lol. I just used piece of a brown cotton shirt, authentic look I guess. Scale goes ok with toybiz sauron.

I didn't cut off the wings because I wasn't committed.

Hell, I dont know.. i dont buy that Namor is a mutant in any case.

He saw Emma Frost one day and was like. "Uh... yeah.. I'm a mutant too.. can i join?"

SoundWave88 · 02-02-2012, 08:15 PM

I thought they had a FE Megs as well. I forgot about Vehicon, he's a FE and getting RID re-mold..

Ahh, maybe it was both deluxe Megs and Optimus. Either way, I prefer Voyagers of those 2, if possible.

Does anyone know which Spider-Man is supposed to be the rumored fully articulated version? Is it the Ultimate one, the FF one with its multiple variants, a different one?

MU and Legends are different lines handled by the same Hasbro division. It's similar to Star Wars and its associated sublines (SWTFs are handled by the SW team, not the TF team).

The "Marvel Universe" logo also has better brand recognition than Marvel Legends right now.
