I love reading all the leaks about what Hasbro might be doing with Marvel Legends. I'm hoping Hasbro will surprise us by giving us Banshee with Black Tom Cassidy, but if either gets made as solo figures, that'd be fine too.

I'm curious of the Pyro/Rogue two-pack will be the re-release of the Jim Lee Rogue or of Rogue in her early '80s/Secret Wars era costume. I'm betting on the former since Hasbro knows fans want the Jim Lee Rogue re-released and I can't picture the more modern Rogue paired with classic Pyro, though odder pairings have happened for two-packs. And on that note -- PYRO!!! WHOO-HOO!!! AVALANCHE, BLOB AND TOAD, PLEASE!!! (*clears throat* Sorry 'bout that...)

West Coast U.S. Agent has to be classic U.S. Agent, otherwise they would've said Force Works U.S. Agent. Since I voted for classic U.S. Agent in this year's Top 10 poll, I'm glad that at least one of my Top 10 is for sure likely getting made this year (I voted for classic orange-and-black suit Leader and got disappointed with the costume they actually made for him).

With the Venom wave, I'm sure one of those has to be Shriek (I'm guessing the "Mohawk" code-word listed figure, given her hair style) since Shriek is in the Venom sequel. I wonder if that means Hasbro could make Firestar in the Venom or rumored Morbius wave, but if the rumors are true she won't be in stores until 2021, I can wait a little longer.

I do hope these reports are true, even though my wallet will hate me more than it already does. For late 2020 or 2021, I hope Hasbro builds on the retro Spidey wave with more classic figures (new classic figures for Chameleon, J. Jonah Jameson, Doc Ock with bendy wire tentacles, Mysterio with alternate heads of Quentin Beck and Daniel Berkhart, Shocker and Black Cat all come to mind) or at least a proper retro "Spider-Man: The Animated Series" vintage wave to match the classic Toy Biz packaging, that Hasbro gives us some more Fox "X-Men" figures ("X-Men" versions of Magneto and Storm, "X2" versions of Deathstrike, Nightcrawler, Jean Grey and Cyclops, "X-Men: The Last Stand" versions of Rogue, Iceman, Kitty Pryde and Beast, etc.), and that the next retro/vintage wave is for The Fantastic Four, The Incredible Hulk or Iron Man. John Byrne era blue-and-white F.F. figures and more Hulks (Mr. Fix It, Fantastic Four suit She-Hulk, brown Pantheon jumpsuit era Professor Hulk, etc.) would be welcome additions to any fan's collection.

Black Tom is part of the Strong Guy wave.

[StuartGreen2019]

Oops, you're right. I forgot he was part of the Strong Guy wave. There are so many figures coming out, it's hard to keep track of which figure's in which wave and coming out. It's going to be very interesting to see what Hasbro will show us with San Diego Comic Con and if any of these leaks actually get displayed/confirmed by the summer.

Kingpin is the rumor/leak that I'm most hoping gets confirmed, I only got two figures from the Kingpin wave. Also with other recent deluxe releases like MCU Giant-Man, Venom, Red Hulk, and the upcoming Apocalypse and Nimrod I'm really hoping we can look forward to such releases as a regular part of the line. Since we're getting Apocalypse and Kingpin is rumored, Rhino is the only other one off the top of my head that I really want but just from principle deluxe releases like these would be a great way for people who missed out on BAFs to still get the characters without having to feed scalpers.

[StuartGreen2019]

I hear you, @En Sabah Nerd. I'm hoping Kingpin gets confirmed too, and Rhino would be great. I would especially love a classic Rhino release without the screaming head sculpt. Classic Sandman would be cool for re-release too, as he's one of my favorite Spider-Man villains. I hope we get to see the other retro/vintage Spider-Man figures. I'd love to know if the leaked classic Electro, Green Goblin and Daredevil listings are true. I'm curious if they'll give Green Goblin alternate heads and what the suit for Daredevil will be (I, personally, hope it's classic red D.D. on a new body, but black armored D.D. is also highly requested by fans so it could go either way).

[Captain Nash]

I see a lot of the rumored and confirmed stuff is rumored to comes out in august. Does that mean a dry spell from May -August? I mean there's a LOT of great stuff planned, but that's quite a gap.

Yes. I WANT to spend more money on more stuff. This may be the last year I can.

Has anyone had any luck scoring the Red Hulk? I'm visiting Denver and the Target here said they have only had two come in thus far. My local Target back in Katy said the same thing before I left.

Not at all. There's not even a tag on the shelf at any of my local stores, and a stock search comes up as none in stock at all of them.

Usually Target releases are pretty easy for me to track down, but Hasbro really botched this one so far.

The scalpers in the Chicago area keep grabbing what few come in here so I haven't seen (or gotten) one yet

@Captain Nash - I doubt it. It's been rumored we're supposed to get the retro/vintage Spidey wave in June and I'm sure we'll be seeing some of the New York Toy Fair reveals in the next month or two.

I always have the opposite problem of everyone here -- I always have too little money and too much I want to collect. I've got five different toylines this year I'm legitimately hyped for - Marvel Legends (especially the retro Spidey wave -- could you tell? ), Ghostbusters Plasma Series, Power Rangers: Lightning Collection, DC Direct, and Masters of the Universe. The price of everything has gone up for me, from the rent to bills, so it's very hard to save up for non-essentials like figures. The $19.99 and $21.49 per figure usually goes to groceries instead.

[Hulkwummy]

Here is my Deluxe Marvel Legends Wish-list.

1. Abomination (Classic Comic Version)(same size as the Vintage Hulk)
2. Wendigo (BAF with Classic Headsculpt)
3. Rhino (Classic Comic Version)(same size as the Vintage Hulk)
4. Zzzax (90s Hulk Cartoon)
5. Madman (2003 Movie Video Game)
6. Flux (2003 Movie Video Game)
7. Ravage (2003 Movie Video Game)
8. Half-Life (2003 Movie Video Game)
9. Bi-Beast (2008 Movie Video Game)
10. Ironclad (2008 Movie Video Game)

Not sure.....80’s/90’s west coast avengers sleeveless?

[MeLikeJinx]

That final Black Widow trailer is pretty awesome... watching it actually made me start to miss the MCU for the fist time in ages. MCU Taskmaster is kinda growing on me... even if he still reminds me of Kikaida... or like a Power Rangers bad guy or something.

Was messing around with X-Factor yesterday- anyone else think that when they finally drop Jean in her X-Suit they'll do green and yellow instead of red and yellow...

I hope for the green and yellow marvel girl. And maybe come with a hair on top version for cyclops. I hate cyclops condom head look.

Uhg- Green and Yellow would make make us 3 figures out from a complete team (human beast/angel/blue and yellow Cyc) Red and Yellow would at least finish off the later stage team. If it's green/yellow it better be a box set so I'm not waiting 3yrs to finish another team build, lol.

[Captain Nash]

Nice Apocalypse fight shots Bo Ttef!

SPeaking of Apocalypse, I'm seeing on fwoosh that someone caught the Hasbro team saying that the one AoA wave and Apocalypse is all the AoA we're getting "this year". Which is counter to how they made it sound months ago.

I'm guessing they had more planned and still may have more planned for next year, but worldwide events affecting the job production force (Coronavirus) in China are throwing some things off schedule. Which is understandable. I mean, I like my figures but that's literal life and death stuff.

I'm also wondering if some of the shown stuff will have delays as well, I'm guessing so. Seeing that the AoA wave is trickling in, so I think that should still be set for this or next month, beyond that not so sure.

I hope not too much of a delay. I want my xman and sugarman! I always knew that corona beer was deadly!

I'm thinking that if there's already some tricking in of that wave, production is run on it - at least some numbers. I think there will be some on-time distribution of that wave, here's hoping everyone gets their orders for it. As far as an entire wave that's my most looked forward to thing shown so far, but I eagerly await Storm, Sunspot, Nimrod, Mach I and the Rogue figure/set/however she comes. I hope they at least all get released this year.

I'm thinking it's entirely possible that everything they've shown may be all that comes this year, minus showing the completing figures for the waves and packs.

X-Men wise I think Longshot, Banshee and Rachel are my top 3 at the moment. I know we got Stinger in that 2 pack, but I'd really like to get Cassie as Stature and more Young Avengers and Runaways in general.

Holding out hope that we'll get some new Young Avengers figures (with Stature and Speed) and, god willing, a full Runaways set.

And those aren't Pepper feet - they have toe joints.
