I remember that comic like it was yesterday. That was when Jim Rhodes was filling in as Iron Man (because Tony was doing his "oh hai I'm an alcoholic street bum" thing) and there was this hilarious scene where he awkwardly tried hitting on Captain Marvel (because they were the only two black people on the team, of course) and she just totally blew him off, lol.
I wish they'd release a 4-pack with the entire Wrecking Crew, or a 2-pack with Titania and Volcana or something. If they're going to do just one stray 2-pack it seems almost pointless (especially as the recently released Molecule Man looks nothing like his Secret Wars version...) |

That Bruce Banner looks like Tobey's Peter Parker.
I'm not into the whole caveman look of the Hulk. I would love a movie Incredible Hulk, love that version of the Hulk (yes I'm an emo). Still sad they dropped/retired the Rogue female body type with the strong legs and medium sized chest. The newer female body versions are so boring and stringy. |

I believe she was leading the Avengers at the time, too. Just as Storm was in charge of the X-Men. The original Secret Wars was good times...

This slow rollout of these pre-orders has nothing to do with being mindful of customers' wallets, and everything to do with marketing. The slow drip means these toys are in the news every couple of weeks, but since they all drop at once it does nothing to save us money.

At least with the first ML Super Skrull they used the sculpt to create a smooth transition to express his shape shifting. Here they were like,"Just stick an Iron Man forearm on him. PERFECT". It's cool he's pinless though. OH. Wait...

Am I counting wrong? 7 accessories, 8 if you include the cape. Which it shouldn't be, because that's a part of his look. It'd be like say Magneto's cape is an accessory, or Batman's cape is an accessory. So where does the 9 accessories come from?

Did you count the two folded wings on the Spider-Woman/Skrull Queen?

Which would be a funny way to count accessories. I'm not saying you're wrong, but they didn't count her fists, nor the original head, nor the original arms on Super Skrull as accessories, because they're part of the figure. Like Zigerlion said, the cape is a part of the figure, so it shouldn't count as an accessory. Neither should the folded wings, since they're part of the figure.

Never understood Spider-Woman. I have no idea what the skrulls are, this makes me want to check out the books based on them.

The Two Packs look bad to me. I think if they sculpted the gloves, it would be worth it.
It just literally looks like a cheap repaint rather than a work of art. The Diamond Select Version looks amazing. Still have my wallet closed to Hasbro. |

For a green version of a figure that released 7 years ago for $50 and sat on shelves for months until they were consistently under $30...
As much as I want to keep collecting legends these prices are on the verge of gouging... |
