I got put off by the price of that hulk buster, £60... Seems a bit much for what it offers, or is it just me?

Im only wanting iron patriot. I have my preferred doom (the secret wars version that came with photon) and i dont really want that taskmaster. Wish theyd put ip on the retro card iron man wave.

Well then. I may buy it and sell you Iron Patriot.

Who needs a Doom? Anyone know the story on the skull head?

Isn't that a robot head to make it into a Doombot?

Lmk bro.

[Dolemite]

Well, I always have to buy every new Doom and Taskmaster figure, and while these are almost straight re-releases, at least Doom has a decent-looking cloth cape and a SWEET Doombot alternate head (although a removable Doom armored mask would have been awesome with it), and I believe Taskmaster has a new head sculpt that may be the best one Hasbro's ever done for him. Plus he now comes with a bow and arrows as well.

That's enough for me, as I'm a huge Doom/Taskmaster fan. No shits given about Iron Patriot, however.

[AyaToyBox]

Robot head sweeten the deal for Dr doom
Taskmaster great with weapons included, comic iron patriot still improvement compared with one from iron monger wave

[snake5289]

The cloth cape on Doom is a little disappointing but other than that it looks like a solid set.

[deecee4]

I hate this Bendis era of Marvel but Doom and Taskmaster look very good. Is this the first soft goods cape in the ML line? I like it but,it would've been nice if both of them had it.Especially with Taskmaster being the type of character that people will be putting in all kinds of action-oriented poses I think.

[hasbroherofan]

Iron Patriot looks awesome. Glad he comes with the alternate Norman head this time.

People were saying that taskmaster is on the vulcan body.

What!? I'd say you never read Bendis' New Avengers & Illumanati framed- half A decade long era then....?
>> Its regarded as A Top 10 (IMO possibly Top 5) Marvel comics epoch. Of course supporting itself in unicen along w/ Hickman's FF & Warren Ellis' T-Bolts: Caged Angels (the precursor to BMB's Dark Avengers).

But alone, Bendis's NwA 'Breakout', than Post CIVIL WAR into Secret Invasion (them solid tie-ins) then Dark Reign; all concluding in SIEGE. Is in total, the Best long-winded modern Marvel cross-over to date IMO.

Ya got them 3 CABAL one-shots (including the Secret Invasion epilogue Dark Reign kick-off one-shot), The Hood's gang stories (including the Hood Dark Reign mini-series), The Sentry stuff from way back in New Avengers (pre CIVIL WAR) that all comes full circle in the Big SIEGE (1-4) grand finale. Thems some MUST READ comics! Especially if you like Marvel villains

Hell, even the reg. (flagship) AVENGERS comics that BMB briefly wrote w/ JRJR pencils- which came in the aftermath of SIEGE were good too decent, w/ The Hood & the Infinity Gauntlet.

Then they relaunched New Avengers; an BMB couldn't put it away (Lmao)! Thus having Osborn briefly reform A New Dark Avengers team w/ Skaar, Gorgon, Trickshot & Ai-Apaec the real Man-Spider. Just Go read them 3 comics- New Avengers (vol.2 / 2011) 16.1, 17 & 18. Then tell me how you "Hate Marvel comics by BMB."

As for M Legends first "cloth capes" it looks okay in the one pic. Then in the other it looks like cheap one ply, 80's Super-powers style. An you are right- that since Doom has A cloth cape; then Taskmaster should of had one as well. It makes sense..
Also,
maybe they should of just made it an SDCC 'CABAL' 5pk.... An give us another 'Astonishing Emma' updated- w/ cloth & A more Leinl Yu; Dark Reign appropiate head. Plus A proper Parker Robbins 'The Hood' figure altogether! Who would also have A cloth cape & A better headsculpt that isn't Ryan (himself) yelling at Dan & Dwight.

It really bothers me that they did that (w/ the "Bring on the Bad guys" wave Hood fig), and didn't even bother offering us A secondary more classic accurate Kyle Hotz styled head- that depicts his actual ethnicity (an insult to the character & his creators).

I've read and own some New Avengers and Secret Invasion trades but, maybe I will give them another read through. I'm finding that stories that I enjoyed earlier in life aren't as good as I remember them being, when revisiting them. So maybe that goes the other way, as well.

[themadbubbler]

Shocked to see that Amazon listed this for $99.99, not $74.99. I pre-ordered one, figuring the Amazon pre-order price guarantee will adjust it down to $74.99 if/when Amazon changes the price to the previously-stated $74.99 MSRP.

[firmpulse]

A 100 bucks!?!? Lololololol

Looks like scamazon is now in the scalping biz.

[snake5289]

It said 74.99 when I clicked the link. Looks like someone goofed when they added it to the website earlier today.

Not feeling Doom's cheap, thin cape. Really doesn't fit the character at all. I know it's not Marvel Legends MO, but they really should have went for a fuller, wired cape a la McFarlane's recent releases.

100% agree. The recent McFarlane capes have been stellar. I love the one on First Appearance Batman.
