Not gonna lie, but I wouldn't mind seeing a Legends version of Silhouette in her classic New Warriors get up...

I was a bit iffy on this Daredevil when I saw the first pics but I like him more now that I have him in hand. Out of the whole wave, he takes the number 3 spot.

OH NO! Not a Justice figure!!

J/K. I knew what you mean. I hate that we have so many line ups that are halfway done, or, even more frustrating, one figure short.

As an aside, I found Greypool tonight and I bought him. will work to get Cable, Paladin and Deathlock (I know the last two won't be much work) so I can complete Sasquatch. I wasn't sure I was going to but even with the preorders the lack of actually physically getting any figures lately has gotten me wanting to just buy something.

Yeah my Dorkside case shipped, was not expecting it to hit until next month and only had 2 bucks in my debit account.

I just keep most of my money in a savings account so if my card gets compromised my life savings aren't going anywhere but backfired on me there.

Daredevil is the only one I want, girlfriend wanted basically everything else.

Got Magneto pre-ordered!

Check your GameStops homie. One in my town got in the case but they were on hold (I guess a preorder or some shìt)

I was on a FB group, quite a few people are having their orders shipped via dorkside. Hell even that new wolverine on the bike is out now too.

Weapon X · 06-18-2018, 09:56 PM

It's strange, the Deadpool wave has seen great distribution near me, while the Lizard wave got next to nothing.

I picked mine up from Dorkside today.

Dr Kain · 06-18-2018, 11:03 PM

I haven't received anything from Dorkside telling me my order is instock. WTF? In fact, it says my orders aren't supposed to ship until July.

None of the Gamestop's around me carry Marvel Legends.

We're all in that boat.

Captain Nash · 06-19-2018, 05:44 AM

Somewhere in an alternate reality the Lizard wave is falling off pegs and forums are complaining about "if they ever see another Mysterio again they'll puke."

That must be where the cull obsidian wave is and thanos the cable guy wave never hit en masse.

Captain Nash · 06-19-2018, 07:15 AM

SDCC is a month from today!! No leaks no rumored lists nothing so that's exciting but gosh darn it I know we have waited longer than this once before but it sure would be nice to get some whisper on the exclusive.

And the Star Wars exclusives are listed on the Hasbro Toy Shop site! What the hell? Where's the Marvel Legends one? Or even the Transformers one that I'll probably pass on because I haven't ordered a Transformers SDCC exclusive in years.

Captain Nash · 06-19-2018, 07:45 AM

A HA! Just reading over on Fwoosh someone has sourced Rektangular as a source of the news, so I think this is legit but I'm not 100% sure. Third party word mind you: looks like a Netflix pack. Daredevil with masked/unmasked head, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Danny Rand in suit and I think Colleen Wing.

If that's true. EASY EASY pass for me, but very glad for those who want more Netflix figures. It's definitely a corner that has a lot to grow into. I hope is is true so I don't have to worry about getting the set in the first time for like...forever.

And now I can order the Cull Obsidian wave now that its' available nowhere. o_O

donmeca2020 · 06-19-2018, 07:54 AM

Just saw this online. Sdcc 2018 box set. I'm honestly not enthused. This will be the first set that i'll skip out on.

But isn't it kind of nice to not have to worry whether you'll get it or not?

I am probably in the minority here but I definitely want this set. The only one that’s a bit a let down is Jessica Jones (without a jacket wow) but everyone else is a definite want especially Luke, Coleen and Danny. The unmasked Head for Daredevil (thou the pic is small) looks a lot better then that pumpkin headed masked one. So that’s a plus

It is ! But being a collector of legends we all now know Hasbro plans to release these down the line anywho. I'm glad because it's just not my cup of tea. I already have the netflix DD and im content with him.

See that's awesome. It doesn't have to be some kind of MCU vs comic bs - some people like both. Some people only like one of the two, or at least more than the other. Some things SHOULD appeal more to one group and not the other, and vice versa. I'm thrilled for all ya'll who want more Netflix series figures. Not only does that mean I can take a break, it means those who have gone without (except for one wave and 1 yet to be released 2 pack) are going to get more.

Exactly man! I hate when people do that haha. When Hasbro releases anything live action all you hear is hordes of people complaining about which comic figure they didn’t make and should make & Vice Versa.. that’s what my problem is haha I collect both the comic and Mcu so that means I’m broke 99% of the time ha
