No, it's time for the First Appearance Storm to get a figure.

Anything other than another Mohawk Storm. But we almost have everyone for the 90's Xmen Again. So would like to finish that off.

Well, we’ve got a little over half of them (Cyclops, Wolverine, Psylocke, Rogue, Archangel and Jean, assuming you were lucky enough to acquire those last two) and need about five more (Gambit, Jubilee, Beast, Storm and Professor X in his hoverchair), but yeah, put me down on the side of completing the 90s team first.

The 70s team is in the same boat though. It only needs Nightcrawler, Colossus, Storm, Prof X with wheel chair, and Banshee.

Yes, but I don’t want the 70s team.

Besides, we’ve gotten (I think) more of the 90s supporting cast and antagonists recently, what with Cable, Deadpool, Shatterstar, Stryfe, Bishop, Multiple Man, Sabretooth, Apocalypse, Omega Red, Onslaught and so forth, although I imagine “Giant-Sized X-Men” fans might use that as argument for more 70s characters.

[Boogieman4hire]

Jeez these suck. Hasbro why don't you just send me these and I'll dump them all in my landfill for you free of charge? No need to thank me. I know I'm pretty self-sacrificing.

[crimsondynamo32]

So wait, when are these supposed to come out?

^ You're not gonna update your Domino with the latest deadpool wave Legends version?

And yah... this wave needs to hurry up. I need that Psylocke to make my incomplete Legends X-men display to be considered good enough complete in my mind. I can live without 90's Jean Grey that I regret passing on for 40 bucks at a toy show just before the Juggernaut wave was announced. But I need that Pyslocke... when I get Psylocke I will open up my Archangel and do a proper setup.

My Domino is so much better and I do have the new one only because she was in the case I ordered. Show it now.

Original 2 Pak Version.

Archangel is Awesome. I had an extra Archangel Head that I used to make an Unmasked Warren Worthington Head so I can switch back and forth.

Xmen Gold Team

Archangel

^ Yah, the body and outfit on your Domino is awesome and more tactical looking and way better than the Mockinbird repaint version, but I still like the deadpool wave Domino headsculpt better.

And I always loved unmasked Archangel even though I pretty much stopped reading comics by the time that became his normal look for a little while.

Official listings up most everywhere now:

Marvel Legends X-Men Wave 3 (Apocalypse) Listings Live! - The Toyark - News

[Dr Kain]

It's kind of lame that BBTS is only doing the case of 7 for $155 plus shipping while Dorkside is $165 for the case of 8 with free shipping.

[Harbinger]

Is it just me or is the unmasked madrox peter parkers head from the mj two pack?

[Parademon1]

Funny how unless you're in a MCU movie or current cartoon, you are considered a "peg warmer" even though you're the top 10 powerfullest character in the known marvel universe, basically Marvel's Superman.

These non comic fans today wouldn't know a cool marvel character if it cold cocked them in the face. Gladiator is my #1 want in this wave followed by Wolvy/Sabes, only 3 I'm getting from this wave.

[Brownfinger]

Not to step on your whole... rant, there. But he was probably right about Gladiator peg warming. He's an awesome character who does not pop up often enough, though sometimes I wonder if that's for the best because he can resolve more than a few plots far too quickly. Certified omega class bad boy.

But his appearance is goofy as hell. Did you ever play that old super hero PC MMO, City of Heroes? The character creator was spectacular, though the visuals and overall presentation were limited by the technology of its time. Gladiator looks like something a six year old would cook up in the City of Heroes character creator. If you're a kid picking one of these figures out, do you think most will want Wolverine or the dorky elf in flat spandex? I've spoken to a depressing number of comic readers who don't give a crap about Marvel's cosmic stuff, and I doubt those are an isolated few. Gladiator is my second most coveted figure in the wave after Storm, and I suspect I will have zero difficulty in finding one.

Yeah, BBTS has absurd prices. I used to order stuff like this from them because they would get theirs first, but that has kinda stopped being the case?

[Omega]

Just pre ordered the entire set on Amazon.ca

Whole wave is still up for anyone in Canada wanting the wave without wanting to pay for international shipping and customs fees.

[Exodus]

Going to skip this wave actually, the 3.75 version are basically the same thing just up scaled.

[Harbinger]

Its a shame they used the smaller breasted upper torso on psylocke. Shes endowed...she needed the ms marvel, spider woman, spiderbitch upper torso.

She looks fine to me.

[Synth]

Awesome wave! The only let down is Magneto. I am still waiting on a better update for his 70's - 90's look.
Wolverine's head looks weird. I'm changing it out with the retro head.

The biggest must haves for the Jim Lee 90's team would be Professor X in his hoverchair and
from the 70s team; Storm because as far as I know, we've never gotten those in figure form.
The rest would be updates to the ToyBiz versions we got.

Also: Gladiator was already released, albeit in a limited fashion, and it doesn't look like this version is much different from that one (if at all). So basically a lot of the people that wanted Gladiator already got him via the SDCC pack a few years ago.

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