Everyone is reporting that they are 6 inch. Why do you think they are 3.75? Edit I see the post now, but I've seen people claiming they are 6 inch.

People have the tendency to be wrong.

100% that this HAS to be 6" Legends and not 3.75" Legends. 100%

Here's why:

Note the "description card" that states the information. That is guaranteed to be a bit bigger than a business card, or else people would would struggle to read it. So that would make it at a minimum of about 3"..... stand the figure NEXT to the description card and it doubles that. Thus, rendering this a 6" Legends figure set.

I don't really know where to ask this, but does anyone know of a 3.75" normal white male human head that is bald and beardless? I need one for a custom and the only figure that I found that would work is a Sephjet Josall Jedi figure, one which is $65, which I will not spend. I looked through GI Joe figures, Marvel Universe, and a good chunk of Star Wars figures so far and I am coming up empty. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Added more specifics

Search 3.75 Vulture on Amazon. Lots of sellers have him for $10-$15.

LordMudd · 06-14-2017, 04:11 PM

You can repaint and use the Major Astro from the 2 pack head too.

Jinkies indeed!

I was wrong. As usual says my wife! Thought I was all C.S.I. on the case, but turns out I was just D.U.M.

It's one of those cases where it was good to be wrong, at least for this scale!

And I totally thought I posted that link in the Appreciation thread and not this one. My bad.

Oscarv · 06-15-2017, 09:37 AM

More 3.75" loveliness. Yippee

I paid 39.99 plus 35 shipping, which was too much for how bad Fed Ex screwed up. It made it to Dallas, sat there 3 days, came to Houston for 1 day, went BACK to Dallas before finally being delivered. Not impressed, but it is finally here.

Just FYI, retail on these was about $80 to $100 when they were still available. Also good to look for at thrift shops.

Hey that looks pretty accurate:

LordMudd · 06-18-2017, 05:41 PM

Mattel has several of these under the Fisher Price name, and I suggested to Toyguru using one of them for a proper Wayne Manor. Shows how well they listen.

That's a good idea. He left Mattel a few years back tho.

Yeah, that's how long ago I suggested it.

Regardless · 06-18-2017, 09:37 PM

Please share suggestions! I just bought Gorgon and am stoked for other discoveries as I am unfamilar with the line.

ukmu · 06-19-2017, 03:10 PM

I love those Toy Biz lines!

Terrax is perfectly scaled. Fantastic Four 1995
Sauran looks good. Fantastic Four 1995
Attuma is sweet. Fantastic Four 1995
Firelord works well enough. Fantastic Four 1995
Dragonman is awesome sauce. Fantastic Four 1995
Warstar. X-Men 1995
Blob. X-Men 1995
Dreadknight. Iron Man 1995
Blizzard. Iron Man 1995
Backlash. Iron Man 1995
The Prowler. Spider-Man 1995
Kingpin. Spider-Man 1995
Madame Webb

Some were not actually made in 1995, but a Google search.with all the words of each line will point in the correct direction.

Also, some scale better than others. They tend to be taller and beefier than MU. Also, weird whiney plastic.

However, if you mix one in here and there, maybe even "hide" them amongst and behind others....I think they look perfect. There are others as well, these are just ones I like. I actually own a few. The Kingpin I highly recommend. He is a bit tall though.

Il Cattivo · 06-19-2017, 04:12 PM

also:

sandman (flip n trap)
spider slayer
tombstone
caliban
absorbing man (incredible hulk transformations)
stegron
holocaust
two head (incredible hulk outcasts)
thunderbird (x-men giant size boxed set)
onslaught

Il Cattivo · 06-19-2017, 04:17 PM

I don't own one but sugarman works too.

Oscarv · 06-19-2017, 04:26 PM

It's nice to know I have some of these already. I love mixing lines, my collection would be a hell of a lot smaller without these other figures
