@Jeddostotle7

Thank you, I believe I fixed it all and I didn't include the Sandman wave because it's listed on my previous list from last year which is located here and it's over a year old now.. yeah!!!

Oh, I added Squirrel Girl to the unknown section

@redfox

I have added the "Not 100% confirmed" to the Thor release. I put a list like this together last year, because all the news ends up getting confusing (like the 2-Pack SL+Yondu / Dr Strange 4in figures) and I cannot remember everything.

Polaris and Dazzler aren't must haves IMO... the rest probably are... or at least they are more well known. I mean you can still find Rogues on the pegs at some places and IMO that is the best comic action figure I have ever played with. Kitty Pryde and Jean Grey Phoenix are pegwarmers too.

I don't think Shatterstar has a higher profile than Polaris or Dazzler personally, Colossus would be at a similar level, Cyclops is definitely more A-list. You're also the first person I've seen saying Rogue and Kitty Pryde have been pegwarming, mostly people report Iceman, Havok and Phoenix. Of some of the local importers than have them (no X-Men wave at general retail here) Rogue, Wolverine and Deadpool have sold out, the rest are in stock.

[MeLikeJinx]

^ I guess it depends on the area. I watch Pituvision on youtube and he goes on daily hunts and in his vids I usually see at least one Rogue in the ML section in his vids... he lives in Florida though where there are a bazillion Walmarts, Targets and TRUs. Like where I live there is only 1 TRU in the entire state.

And I think Shatterstar will be the star of this wave.

[Dr Kain]

I feel like I'm the only one whose Targets are not getting in the new products. My stores haven't even restocked since Xmas.

In my area, the only figures from those waves who aren't pegwarming to some extent are Rogue, Deadpool, and Wolverine. I've seen Rogue on the peg a fair amount of times, but at least half, if not more, of the Rogue's I've seen on store shelves were from my local TRU (which I worked at over the holidays) got multiple cases of only Rogue. Outside of that, I haven't seen many Rogues. I've seen Wolverine in the wild once, and Deadpool never. The rest I see pretty commonly at this point, with the most common being Iceman, Havok, and Phoenix.

Squirrel Girl is pretty much confirmed at this point to have been one of the reporters at the press event mistaking Elsa Bloodstone for Squirrel Girl, and that spreading to a couple sites early on before clarifications were made. Bascially, we're not getting Squirrel Girl yet.

If I remember correctly, that rumored lineup for the Thor wave (we now know for sure that there will be some kind of Thor wave) came from the same source and in the same rumor/leak as the rumored lineups for the second Guardians wave (which has proven to be entirely true, including the thought-unlikely-at-the-time Ex Nihilo) and the Netflix wave, which has proven true for what they've shown of it so far; the only two figures of that wave that'd been revealed before that leak were JJ and Punisher, and the rumored lineup included them, Daredevil, Elektra, Blade, and Bullseye; we now know DD and Elektra to be correct, and are awaiting confirmation on the rest.

[Dr Kain]

I don't agree with MeLikeJinx at all. Dazzler is hands down the one I want the most from this wave. Colossus would be #1 if it was his Cockrum/Byrne design.

[Captain Nash]

Even though my photo taking abilities are next to nothing, I must take a photo tonight. Tonight finally the last "absolutely necessary" character for my collection has been bought. Collecting is not over for me by any means, but I can now look at my collection and consider it complete in terms of "must haves". I no longer see a hole in terms of where a character could be, and instead can concentrate on what I WANT made, not what I feel NEEDS to be made, if that makes sense.

I do go on. It's just a weird feeling, over 10 years ago Polaris took the top spot of my most wanted Marvel Legends figures, and tonight that is finally crossed off my list.

Also, Dazzler is really freaking awesome, and in fact, the better sculpt, but my near obsession with getting this character made overrules such logic.

[lordbest]

Congratulations, Captain Nash.

[Trivial Psychic]

Got the chance to mess around with Sunfire tonight, and I'm really enjoying this figure, as he really hits a sweet spot. The paint apps for the most part are very clean, with some nice whites and gold effects, and the head sculpt is really well done. The flame effects are reused from Iron Fist, but are better this time around with shades of orange and red in the translucent plastic for a great fire effect.



My favorite part is that the figure is on the newer Spidey 2099 sculpt, which means that he has the nice butterfly swivel in the shoulders that allows him to strike some of his iconic poses. Here is a shot with Symbiote Spidey (representing Pizza Spidey) and the newer 2099 body. So glad they went with this sculpt, as the Pizza Spidey would have been just too skinny for Shiro...



This was probably the most anticipated figure of this new X-Wave for me, as I had been wanting Sunfire in this costume in Legends format ever since I got rid of my Giant Sized X-Men box set many years ago.



Definitely my favorite figure of the year thus far. Just need Colossus and Dazzler now!

Target has been horrible for Legends for me. I'm almost at the point where I'm not even going to bother with the ones in this area anymore.

[Jeddostotle7]

I've been trying to think for a while what body I'd want a new Classic Armor Iron Man to be on, and the recent advent of the ANAD Spidey 2099/Sunfire and Spider-UK bodies has added even more choices, and I have mostly been choosing between those two (with some consideration towards the slimmer-torsoed version of the Grim Reaper body that Namor used, sans collar of course). I've been leaning towards ANAD Spidey 2099/Sunfire because I thought it had the right mix of bulk and slimness (as I feel both Toybiz's and Hasbro's attempts have been too bulky and too skinny, respectively), but now I see from the pictures posted above that the legs might be too thin. Still, I think its physique better represents the most classic version of Tony's armor worn from 1976 through to the 80's. Perhaps they can mold bulkier legs for use with characters that warrant it, like Iron Man. My main hesitance now is height. I'm not sure this body is tall enough in its current form, but if they remold the legs (or at least the boots, as they'd need to do anyway) and give it a slightly bigger head, it could heighten the figure to a good enough height.

Sorry for the long rambly post, I just saw the pics of Sunfire and reminded me of these things that I've been thinking over for a couple months.

That's pretty much why I just preorder cases, but I can't exactly preorder something when the preorder doesn't exist.

[Charliegone]

If you guys are in Southern CA, head to Frank and sons....found a pretty good deal there for the whole set of GOTG for 140 bucks even. That's alot better than you'd find online. Also had the sandman wave for that price.

[Nostalgic]

That Sunfire looks great! Where do you guys buy the clear stands with the posing arms?

From the BAF Juggernaut wave, they seem to come and go around here, but the only ones that never show up in stores are Wolverine and Deadpool.

Depending where in Florida you are. However most the ones around me are usually all let downs.. barely restocking anything and some have waves from more than a year ago still sitting on the pegs.

[Brownfinger]

Yeah, I think I really want to complete the Warlock BAF. I'd like to find a way to do that as cheaply as possible, but it looks like I need to wait right now as the BAF pieces are nearly as expensive as the figures would be at retail.

[kenm2474]

So what Non Movie Thor Figure will it be? I think it needs to be the 12" Thor downsized. Dose anyone have any Speculation?
Thor: Ragnarok (This wave hasn't been 100% confirmed)
-Ares
-Enchantress
-Hela
-Jane Foster
-Thor
-Odinson
-Thor (Movie)
BAF: Executioner

[Nostalgic]

After seeing the Old Man Logan in a store yesterday, I decided to run around and try to find more from the wave. I haven't been able to find any at all from the new wave other than that one yesterday. I asked a guy at Walmart and he said their warehouse has been out of Marvel Legends for a while and he's not sure when they will get more in. They only had like 3 on the shelf, all from an older wave.

[Starlord67]

Found the X-men wave here in Katy at my local Target...all except Logan. Picked up Sunfire and Cyclops but man the whole wave looks SWEET! Hated leaving behind Dazzler, Polaris and Colossus. I'm pumped about this set of X-men!! I was floored by how good Dazzler looks in person as I had my doubts about this figure. She is a must have now.
Question Did anyone get a street date on the Dark Phoenix/Cyclops two pack yet?

So much X-men goodness!! I'm a happy camper!!

[donmeca2020]

Went to my TRU today and a walgreens, becausr all of you got me antsy to if any of these new waves just might be around my way anddd nada all i saw was the pegwarmers of the strange wave, the first X wave, and some of the onslaught wave... thats south florida for you.

I think the Thor figure that was listed is the Jane Foster one we just saw. I don't remember seeing Jane listed by name in the original "leak" but I assumed the comic Thor mentioned would be her since they were already doing Odinson.

I am hoping for that as well, that 12 inch looks great and would make me very happy.

Given that Jane Foster is listed, I would assume that's her.

Where is she listed? The original solicitation I saw for the wave didn't mention her. It just mentioned MCU Thor, Odinson (Unworthy Thor), an unspecified Thor (presumably Jane), Enchantress, Hela, and Ares, with Executioner as the BAF.

[Byrnes]

Found X-Men at Target yesterday. Man that Brickseek site really helped me out. I had to to be the schmuck to ask the guy to check in the back bought it paid off. He brought out the entire case. I left Old Man Logan. Love this wave. Can't wait for more X-Force and New Mutants.
