It was fun to watch them squirming when talking about the mother scale though. Clearly, they were not comfortable doing so. THANKS Kerns for dusting that one off from the vault. I need reminding sometimes of why I don't like that guy!

Well, Shartimus TECHNICALLY collects this scale, but his heart will always belong to 6 inch, so a bias IS there(though he is ALLOWED to have such a bias).

Didn't you say you saw some of the Sinister Six figures showing up on Chinabay?

Also saw some reviews of the 6" deaths head II, so jealous I hope either we get that as a reveal or someone can shrink down that head sculpt.

Yeah they really do look uncomfortable when they answer questions about 3.75" stuff, almost like when Sean spicer gets asked about Russia lol and it turned into "ask someone who is not here... cost matrix complicated profit margins Sophie's choice"

Also I agree JB, we need to be more vocal with hasbro. Sadly the response above is typical of what they give us (old video but like I said, that's the usual response).

as far as im aware Kernel,shartimus and gang are always in touch with falcon,stall and vonner on facebook and instagram.but if you notice with those guys even if a figure sucks they still pick it up out of the want of having it.its just too easy for most 3.75 collectors outside of the hardcore fanbase to pass on these figures.which in turn causes a knock on effect for the distributer.

shartimus collects several lines>>>>turtles,hottoys,transformers and i think MOTU.but he is a pure legends head first and foremost!!!the legends community tried to petition hasbro to try get Dave vonner back on board 6" line back when MU was getting better releases than legends,it didnt work out.sadly we may not be seeing much of shartimus on YT as he is going to be a dad<<<<congrats to both him and his wife!

Yeah those guys go to all the SDCC and toy fairs too. I have a buddy that just moved to San Diego so I'm gonna go one of these years and hasslehoff them about the 3.75" line lol
And this year I've passed on Spider-Man UK, I would pick one up but almost all the ones I've seen at retail had super derpy eyes. I'll get one eventually but I am very particular about the paint, especially on the eyes and face.

[MUfan97]

Hmm, random though, but ARE there any 3.75 inch only YouTube channels? I mean, ones that don't have ANY 6 inch on them? The closest thing I can think of is Jcc2224 with Star Wars, but he goes mostly 6 inch for Marvel and whatnot.

Maybe now with Sony building its own cinematic universe, we will finally get a worthy Venom figure.

I hope it flops. I want venom in the mcu.

Now, they can actually repaint the older molds, and most of the lesser articulated figures are pretty tolerable(Captain Marvel is a favorite of mine). Plus, some figures, like the Invincible Iron Man and Homecoming Spider-man have gotten more articulation back.


I wouldn't say that we're boiled quite yet.

Oh yeah those 2015 totally sucked, 2016 was a lot better and nicer cards too.

Yeah it's the simpsons town hall podium and I think the building came from My little Pet Shop line.

There are several in the line. They 'click' together or stack on top of each other.

So Hasbro wants to celebrate 15 years of Marvel Legends with fans to upload photos of their 6" figures to any social media platform using the hashtags #HasbroToyPic and #MarvelLegends. I reckon we should hijack these hashtags by bombarding them with photos of our 3.75" figures instead!

That seems a mite disrespectful.

[JadeScar]

Yeah, you're right. Bit of a brain snap on my part. Sorry. No disrespect to the 6" collectors and shouldn't hijack their rightful celebration of a great line. Still, our line is now branded Legends too so maybe a few 3.75" pics could sneak in?

Hmm. I dunno. Does it SPECIFICALLY say 6 inch?

It does NOT specify scale and the 3.75" line is now also called marvel legends. We are talking about TOYS here folks, let's not take this too seriously lol

True dat on the last bit. We don't really have a big Legends vs Universe rivalry anyway(unless you count the constant jokes about Dwight Stall), so it'd be kinda out of nowhere.
