so lets do the quick math, we were aware of the bishop/ beast wave what now, about a year ago? and I have still seen nothing at retail.... so I can expect to get my hands on these around the summer of 2017? that sounds about right. still no Skurge or North star!?! I hope that DCU puts out one wonder twin! On a positive note, I'm glad that scarlet spider isn't just a repack, I like the alternate heads with Chameleon.

Also glad to see a Miles Morales reissue for those of us who missed out the first time.

The fact that US Walmarts still aren't carrying the product is a huge failure for Hasbro. The rebrand was supposed to be about getting stores to order but they have fucked that up. At least we've gotten figures in our hands but they aren't making it easy..

I'm not sure that's Miles, I think it's Superior Spiderman on the new big time buck... not positive but from the pic that's what I'm getting.

Nice close ups there. I'm only going to get 7 of the 12 new 3.75" figures. Seriously though these Legends are making me wanna reach for my wallet. I'm going to pick up that Ghost Rider, Ben Riley Scarlet Spider & Probably that nice Spider-Man.

The Beast wave we only knew about at SDCC in July so not that long ago. Beast, Bishop, Black Cat, etc were rumored in the month before that. Last year at Toy Fair it was Ares, Whirlwind, Deathlok, etc. that were new (if my memory serves). I'm fairly sure everything they showed us last Toy Fair has been released except for things like Northstar and the canceled 3-pack figures or stuff that was only CG mock ups.

ok it feels like we 3.75" fans have become the unwanted step children of Hasbro, judging by recent offerings I feel like were getting the scraps. they must be putting the "B" team on our scale while the real brain trust is cranking out some 6" love. that said I see some cross scale potential in the new target three pack,(namely Hulk and ultron)

double post sorry

[Iceman]

Sadly it's felt that way ever since Dwight Stall took over. I'm just glad that we are going to be getting some good figures and new characters. It's better than nothing and there was a point when I thought new figures worth buying might be a thing of the past. Sure, the Legends crowd is getting way more and stuff I wish they would make in the 3.75" but maybe it will come back around eventually.


Legends must really be making money or something. The price increase and volume has me wondering how Legends collectors can possibly buy it all. I only have about 25 Legends and that number will only grow by a 3-4 this year.

[samsson37]

So again..no Northstar or Skurge....meanwhile Legends get a freaking MISTY KNIGHT AND HELLCAT, and a Banner !!! WTF !!!!!!!!! Like really HASBRO.....

[Captain Nash]

Glad we're getting Emma, at long last but I feel the pain for those who want Skurge. They have (nearly) totally dropped the ball on this line. I wonder if we'll see Northstar still or not.

Too add, Emma is literally the only figure I'm interested in buying post Wave 2. You all can keep your Chameleon, just ho-hum on it. The ML line is going to get the majority of my money this year out it looks like.

[Iceman]

They've made it clear that Northstar is coming the last time they showed him. Maybe he will be like Cyclops/Ant-Man and they will just insert him into a wave whenever they feel like it.

I wonder sometimes if Hasbro is working on a "pendulum" theory. kill legends and drive everyone to re-buy everything in the 3.75 scale, then when that takes off for a while and everyone is on board turn it down to a trickle, double down on the 6" scale bring everyone back to re-re buy all the revamped Legends. we'll see if in two years MI gets "revamped" and legends drops off.

I do like that Widow/Iron Man 2 pack. As to Cap/Fury I have to ask why they seem like straight repacks at least Widow sports her updated movie uniform.

Personally I hate hate hate that they're releasing this one. X-force colors would've been my choice, original behind that, then Weapon X, and then (hell) ultimate Deadpool would have been better than this.

[kylactus]

how easy would it have been to give us a marvel NOW Deadpool? or raid some spare parts containers and make an evil deadpool. this just seems too much like there trying not to give us anything ML doesn't have, while making sure they get everything we've got and more.

[samsson37]

Just plain lazy with the Deadpool, Cap, Widow, 2packs, Im hoping the head that comes with Chameleon is a Osborn and I'm glad for a lot of people that finally get Emma....I still scratch my head over Colosunaught before Northstar and *drumroll* MUTHA FREAKIN SKURGE !!!!!! I mean really we get a Chameleon before two that had full sculpts !!!???

[Autobot_Goldbug]

Northstar is coming with the Shana/Vulture wave. Why they didn't put him out is a mystery.

[Ninjinister]

So we gettin' 3.75" humans in Jurassic World so I can make my Starlord or nah?

Only thing I can say is Hasbro hates Asgard in 3.75 scale lol. I too demand my MUTHA FREAKIN SCOURGE. and yes I know we are getting a 3.75 Thunderstrike but I don't consider his as Asgardian.

Redpool meaning his standard red costume (any variation). We don't need it. Sure, that blue costume isn't great but at least some people will want it an no one already has it. Better than a reissue. A blue Deadpool is better than a lot things they could have done. At least it's from an actual comic and has proper articulation.

If they gave us a new red Deadpool there would be people lined up complaining they already have one and he's wasting a spot same as they will with this (or a Wolverine/Cap/Iron Man). People always find something to complain about. I'm just happy when we aren't stuck with a reissue like Yellowjacket or the GoTG wave. I don't feel the need to buy every figure anyway and I know that not every figure will be made for me. Now if they could make a proper Iceman in either scale that would be great lol.

I like the X-Men Deadpool and will display him with my X-men since I keep them and X-force Separate and my red pool has teamed up with Deathstroke to wreck havok on my 3.75 Titans

[kylactus]

I agree, a 90's era Ice man with a decent sled cast in a pure translucent plastic would be awesome. that or an AOA Ice man. I'd buy a "dead" Wolverine incased in Adimantium with no articulation before I'd go for another standard DP.

[samsson37]

I love how lazy ass Hasbro..likes to put salt in a wound...ok you give us Korg WTF !? But then you stick it to us more by making him with closed fist..!!!!!!!!!!!!
