Loving this wave, especially Creed. Am I the only one thinking we are seriously lacking in the villain department for X-Men? Sure the ones we got/are getting are some of the bigger baddies, not just in size but main baddies...Juggernaut, Sabretooth, Magneto and Apocalypse but we desperately need a 90’s Mystique, Pyro, Toad and Avalanche. Why don’t we get more villains Hasbro??

Throw in T-bird & that would make for an awesome boxset.

So yeah...fairly obscure character not from a current movie that's already been released in some fashion? Good chance of pegwarming.

Released as a SDCC boxset exclusive, so no, not a lot of people have ever gotten their hands on that character unless they wanna pay $50_$60+ on ebay for him Plus this version is sporting the comic accurate colors which make him pop & has a better paint job on the face as well.

Obscure to the typical non comic crowd but very well known to those of us that grew up actually reading the comics that featured him. But I getcha, not in the MCU/current toons or even a video game, so new generation won't get him.

They should have switched places on the pack list. Why not double-up on Multiple Man, a character that some will obviously want extras of? I know Wolverine is most popular, but Hasbro should understand by now which figures collectors will buy multiples of, particularly when it's in their name.

Sadly, if they did a box set, it would have Wolverine in it and not Thunderbird.

As stated in the main Marvel Legends forum, even to many many people who grew up reading comics at the same time you did, Gladiator is fairly obscure...

I do love this wave and will be getting the whole set. As a massive Sabretooth fan this guy looks great but Hasbro should’ve used the Omega Red base. The size of that figure and the butterfly shoulders and pointey feet are perfect, not the thick ankles and boot look this old mold has. A few new pieces like new lower arms/hands and lower legs and he’d be perfect. Actually thinking about it...knowing they have that better, new sculpt available and didn’t use it the more I’m disappointed. Oh well hopefully I’ll be receiving this wave from Canada tomorrow and I’ll be able to judge in person.
