New Marvel Legends/6" Appreciation Thread

Quick chiming in on the pics causing folks trouble- Blocking people is a pretty easy solution. it's in your profile. Just add Ken to your "block" list and his pics won't show up anymore. Easy to remove people from the list or even view a post on a case-by-case basis. Hope that helps everyone.

I have been here long enough and have many friends here. None of which have a problem with my pics only a certain few. So I will do what they say and just ignore you and let you figure out your own way of fixing your Tablet, Phone problem.

DarthKamen · 02-08-2018, 09:56 PM

Ignore me if you want but I just don't see why you can't compromise.

But back to appreciating Marvel Legends I suppose.....

Keep doing what your doing dude ! We all like your updates. Maybe some people should get better internet service or a better cell phone service.

DarthKamen · 02-08-2018, 10:11 PM

It's not that I don't want him posting pictures, I just don't see why they have to be so large.

What is he supposed to compromise about? He posts the pictures, end of story. It isn't his fault the site itself doesn't auto shrink them like other forms do. Is he supposed to think of people who are looking at the internet on their phone? Is it his fault their phone sucks? Guess what? Internet on phones suck ass in general. You just have to deal with it.

Anyway, I've been away from the internet for the last 9 hours. Did I miss any more Legends reveals?

redfox · 02-08-2018, 10:35 PM

Movin' right along...

Gah, I love this figure/two-pack. With all of the heads and Phoenix accessory, it's just about perfect for any Jean Grey fan.

So, what two-packs are you guys hoping to see revealed for 2018???

Bo Ttef · 02-08-2018, 10:42 PM

MCU Shuri and Klaw (or Non-Golden Jaguar Killmonger) would be an excellent 2-pack.

kylactus · 02-08-2018, 10:53 PM

Red fox, awesome pics (even if they’re big lol) she is definitely the most dynamic figure released last year, I don’t think she can even do a vanilla pose. As for two packs, gambit/ mr.sinister, battle damaged Wolverine/ sabertooth, 90’s havoc / 90’s Polaris (give her a shit load of head sculpts), 90’s jubilee / powered down colossus...

Hey! I know you!

It's affecting multiple people. There is a simple way to prevent it from affecting these people. He gets to post his photos, no one suffers lag, everyone wins. Why is that an issue?

And he complains he shouldn't have to change to satisfy others....and then proceeds to tell others they should change to satisfy him. Hypocritical much?

And Dark Phoinex looks gorgeous there, the Tamashii fire effect works great with her.

As for 2 packs....I want something to come with a MCU Ghost. I don't care what figure it is, I'll buy it.

kylactus · 02-08-2018, 11:04 PM

Not really hypocritical since I don’t think the complainers matter to him, nor does he give a damn what they do...just sayin. Some want him to change, he said F off... no hypocrisy.

First Appearance Green Goblin vs First Appearance Hobgoblin.

It could be advertised as a battle of the Romitas.

Anything 70s/80s X-Men related.

The figure in that photo is from Medicom and was a part of their RAH (Real Action Hero) line for Spider-Man 3. It's about 11.5", putting it close to 1/6th scale.

As you may or may not know, Hot Toys produced a bunch of figures for Spider-Man 3, but for whatever reason, Venom was not among them. I'm not sure why, but Medicom was the only one who attempted Venom in any capacity. The figure is really nice, with puffy paint outlining the web lines and logos, and has the matrix texture that was featured on all of the Spidey costumes for the movies. It's also pretty damn accurate to the movie, considering that it's not a Hot Toys figure, although the head itself is more based off of the concept art for that film's Venom, as opposed to the look we got for the actual movie.

My only gripes with it is that the shoulders are a bit wide as well as the hands, and the suit really restricts the amount of dynamic poses that the figure can strike, which sucks because the body is actually really well articulated. The figure does not have ankle rollers (as they were not a standard at that time,) so standing the figure is a bit tough as well, as he is top heavy due to the aforementioned wider upper body. The suit is also not removable, and is made of a pleather like material, which has held up surprisingly well over the years as I have taken good care of it, but if it holds up another ten years without the stitches tearing, I'll honestly be surprised. Still, the figure was a great one for it's time, and had Hot Toys not stepped up their game the way they did, I'm sure Medicom would still be around making these. I hope that Hot Toys might come around and go back and give it a shot, but after ten years, I'm not holding my breath, so this guy holds a special place on my shelf, wide shoulders, goofy boots and all.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to use the block feature. I don't see anything about it in my profile.

Go to User CP on the left of the forum toolbar at the top of the forum page.

i like that figure, looks kool. too bad its not 1:12, too big.

Spyne98 · 02-09-2018, 04:59 AM

If I may ask, what are the people who are having problems loading pics using? Specifically? I have used my phone (Samsung Galaxy s6), an iPad, a laptop, a desktop at work, an Asus tablet and whatever my old phone was. I have never once had an issue loading Ken’s pics or anyone else for that matter.
Is this a dial up issue? Just asking.
And if I may, nothing he has posted is against the rules. I love seeing custom progress. I make some customs too. I find it interesting. If you don’t like the pics, either block it, like what was suggested above, or stop complaining. Are we 7?
Oh and yay Legends!

The worst is I can't even figure out how to upload pictures through my pager. Internet forums need to realize that not everyone is using new fangled crap like Netscape and AOL.

Packard bell ? Wowww lol they're all probably on dial up and or have no idea how to hit the wi-fi button on their phone. That is if it's capable of using wifi.
