Anyone happen to have the 80th First appearance Wolverine and the Cowboy Hat Logan with the black tanktop? And if so could you fo a headswap of the open mouth yelling head onto the 1st appearance body? Thanks in advance!

Isn't that screaming head the same as the Weapon X one? Just slightly recolored?

No, the hair is notably different. The cowboy figure's screaming head is a repaint of the retro wave figure's head.

Edit: I mean the stocking-mask retro figure.

Pain to get that head on but it does fit.

Where do you think the first appearance head came from?

Dang that looks pretty darn good! I got a buncha Gamestop gift cards for Christmas so maybe I'll pick one up haha

I’ve found that the alt head from the vintage wave Wolverine works pretty well on the first appearance body.

Oh I know, but they're similar enough to me that I get the jist of how it'll look and I assume I can finagle it on there

So after a few days I've finally gotten around to forming final thoughts on the Legends I got for Chrimbus.

The Alpha Flight set is great. Its individual figures are not all without their flaws but these were all minor for me and getting such a near-complete team at once is excellent. As others had cautioned Aurora's elbows were tight out of the box but it took me probably a minute with a hairdryer to get both moving without fear of breaking. Paint on all of them are pretty clean with only some minor blurring on Vindicator. I do like that Shaman's belt can be turned around easily enough by pushing it up around his abdomen so you can have his pouch on his right side, where I'm more used to seeing it. All of the heads appear to be new to this set and the hair on all of them (except Puck obviously) is really well done, particularly on Snowbird. I'm having some difficulty deciding who is my favorite of this set but I might call it a tie between Aurora and Snowbird. With the simple addition of Sasquatch (who I finished back in June) I have a full team ready to go since I never cared much for Mac, and his long-running absence from the series after dying pretty early makes him an easy omission for me.


I got Punisher and Logan at Gamestop during their bag sale and I'm pretty glad that I did. I had to look through all of their Logans to find one with decent eyes on the angry head but other than that he's a cool toy. Speaking of, I really like seeing this head painted without the pantyhose stocking mask thing on the Madripoor version, it's a nice and fitting battle-face. The cowboy hat head is also well done but without a bottle of beer to fill his hand I don't have much use for a jovial faced Logan, also considering Logan's stature I'm pretty sure this is a child-sized hat. The rest of his body is well done and this time they also painted him on some chest-hair which the rider release didn't have. I also dig the inclusion of the Muramasa blade. This Punisher is just a cool repaint of mixed parts that all work together for a good figure. The weapons included are a decent variety and aren't painted in ridiculous toy colors either, although he needs both hands to really hold the sniper rifle since one hand doesn't hold the handle solidly enough on its own. I like both heads but the skull paint based on the 2004 video game just stands out way more to me and distinguishes him from the other figures we've already gotten.


I nabbed the family matters pack during one of the multiple recent times Amazon dropped it down to $40. At this price it feels much easier to glaze over Quicksilver's weak paint since he was always the one I cared least about, although seriously Hasbro got his eyebrows the right color but not the rest of his hair. Magneto in his classic costume is highly appreciated but notably flawed as his cape is cumbersome. Is the cape a reuse from an older figure? The cape's upper peg is fit for the hole in his back but the extra bit beneath the peg prevents it from actually securing in. In hand I like the neutral expression head a bit more than I did from seeing it online but the angry white-eyes head is still my preference. There's a little bit of shoddy paint around his gauntlets and boots and while mine is better off than others I've seen it's still disappointing given he's only the two colors. I agree with the many who've said that Wanda is the definite winner of the set, her face is alarmingly better than most other comic-based women in the line. Beyond that I like the different suit coloring to separate this figure from the Allfather wave one and of course changing the high heels for flat feet allows Wanda to stand so much easier.

I like that Punisher for the most part, but those Scourge/ Electro arms just don't gel with it for me, maybe if he'd had the jacketed Cyclops arms instead haha

I feel like having the same symbol on the face and the chest is too much symbol. Like maybe that face paint Punisher head with a John Wick suit body would be more cool.

And Damn... you guys who waited until the Black Friday amazon prices scored.

[redfox]

So excited to have this oddball in-hand. Ordered White Rabbit from Walmart.com as soon as she popped-up on the site. Love how she turned out.

^ So the clock and chain part are sculpted on? That sux... no easy White Queen custom for me then looks like.

The clock and chain are actually not part of the sculpted torso. Though still not an easy fix, as the clock and chain are actually plugged and inset into the torso. From what I can tell, removing both may reveal an unsightly cavity line across the figure. Probably not an issue for an adept customizer, but unfortunately it'll probably be enough to stop me from attempting.

Anyone need a Retro Storm? I have an extra I do not need and was looking to trade her

[ThorOdinson123]

Just watched Endgame for the first time since theaters back in April.

I really hope at toy fair they surprise us with Final Battle Thor and Short hair Carol.

But what I really want is an Okoye retail release that's not a BAF. Maybe do what they did with Giant Man. I need Okoye in my collection.

I kinda agree that having the face paint and the symbol on the chest is like a hat on a hat but it's comic books so it works. Captain America having a big letter "A" on his mask is sort of a similar situation since his costume already is the stars and stripes.

Alpha Flight was the one Legends item I paid full price for, I pre-ordered it and had determined in advance it was a Christmas gift to myself so even though it arrived in November I held off on opening it. While it was a bit of a sore moment to see it on sale around Black Friday at the same time the set is fairly priced for being 5 and 1/2 figures so as long you want them all like I did it's okay.

Maybe Okoye will get a complete release for Black Panther 2, of course the costume might be different.

ya that might happen but id rather get a re-release of the BAF from the BP movie wave one in the fans project line. Be better than waiting till 2022 or whenever Black Panther 2 comes out
