Go educate YOURSELF instead of getting on my damn back.

Im not a comic book historian expert and neer said I was.


Im telling you Beast was grey back then and he was grey in 1972-1973.

By the way i couldve sworn McCoy/Beast was in his grey form for the Avengers back then but like i said, Im not a frikkin expert.

And neither are you, Dustin so back the hell off. Ive noticed youve been on my back over certain things of all comic book related yada yada.

Hank had grey fur for slightly more than 4 issues of Amazing Adventures in 1972. He grew grey fur in Amazing Adventures #11, was wounded in Amazing Adventures #14 and in Amazing Adventures #15 his fur turns black. It was drawn as black with blue highlights, just like Superman hair was, but is specifically said to be black.

Then they just started coloring him blue and eventually acknowledged that he was blue.

ANYWAYZ

when is the new Age of Apocalypse Apocalypse figure supposed to be in stores anyway?

[urrutiap]

Since this is the Marvel Legends topic thread, Hasbro really needs to stop making odd Spider-Man figures such as that neon green Spider-Man outfit. Not everyone reads or keeps up with whatever goes on in the newer Spider-Man stuff.

as for X-Men related figures for Marvel Legends, Hasbro needs to make these

X-Men 2099 wave
Hulk 2099
Groo
original Power Pack. Not just the kids but also include the bad guy lizard aliens and Whitey the horse alien

Horror Wave
-Werewolf by Night
-1990s Morbius
-1990s Blade
-Nightstalkers pack
-Tomb of Dracula Dracula

Apparently now. Ive seen remnants at targets and epicfailmarts ( walmart ) so they're hitting. Ya just gotta beat the scalpers and resellers. I ordered mine from dorkside toys cause i am not running all over hellngone burning gas to strike out finding the figs i want.

Ummmm.....you were the one trying to snarkily correct people and telling them to "Go read your frikkin comics".

I am kind of an expert on X-Men related comics. I have literally read every issue of every comic that has an X-Men character in it from 1963 until early 2019 (I still have some catching up to do).

I gave the exact issues that Hank was grey in. It was a little over 4 issues of Amazing Adventures and nothing else. No Avengers or X-Factor. I was giving the full information that someone was asking for and correcting the false info you posted. It is super easy to look things up. If you are on this forum, you clearly have access to the internet and the information resources widely available there.

Are you sure man? Because Sinbad had all the copies of the movie Shazam collected and burned to erase it from history. Could be some kind of Masonic hoax for Avengers gray Beast also.

Sinbad didn't get everything.

Everyone always forgets about that variant cover that proves Grey Beast was an original member of the Avengers. That's even before Captain America.

[Thor Laserpunch]

Ah that's funny, he actually leaned into it.

So who else remembers when Rocket Raccoon met a pre-Liefeld Cable in 1976?

This is a nonsense opinion. A lot of people don't read older comics either. Not every Legend is for every fan, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't make them. Big-Time Spider-Man is hugely popular with some readers, and at least one well-known Legends reviewer. I don't read anything but X-Men, but that doesn't mean I think they should stop making characters that aren't X-Men-related.

Firmly agreed.

Every time I see someone cry about how Hasbro makes figures from eras they don't like, I wanna remind them nobody is forcing them to buy anything.

Case in point, I'm pretty sure a lot of people have zero interest in most of the 2099 stuff just mentioned, but if Hasbro makes it then more power to them.

I couldn't find Rocket until 1982. That character from 1976-7 is technically Rocky Raccoon and isn't canon. It's debatable and I don't have any investment in the issue. At least we can all remember that time Cable gave the Hulk a wet willy for throwing a hissy fit.

No, he was asking about Apocalypse himself, not the wave. That is anywhere from August to Oct.

Found The Leader today and grabbed him. Question: has he ever been shown using a weapon of any sort? I'm considering giving him Killer Moth's pistol - seems like it'd be a good fit, aesthetically.

I've seen him with a laser gun sometimes.

My local Walmart was well stocked today. They finally got the Gamerverse wave, two cases from the looks of it, and they restocked the AoA wave by three cases. Mar-Vell was the only figure from his wave that I wanted for full price, thankfully they had two to choose from because the face on one was seriously sloppy. He's a pretty straight-forward figure but his hair is fantastic, as redundant as they'd be he might have benefited from some energy effects.

I saw Morph back when I grabbed Sunfire but re-reading AoA encouraged me to pick him up this time around. I know this figure is more explicitly based on Morph from the Exiles when he looked like this (details on the head, lack of elbow and knee pads) but it's close enough. Blink was in her Exiles look too so I'm okay.

Dark Beast was the only figure they had only one of and his box was mangled, thankfully I open my toys. Like others have said this figure is a nice reuse, mostly, of last year's Beast that they put just enough effort into to make it stand out. I gave him a flask from DCC's TNBA Poison Ivy for this shot.

I have wondered the fire on red hulk as well.

You still haven't bought these 2! You are seriously missing out on 2 fantastic figures that are the best versions of these characters in 6' scale ever.

Amazing Adventures featuring Beast #12 had Grey Beast fighting Ironman on the cover. Maybe that's the image that comes to mind when folks remember grey Beast with the Avengers. the story was reprinted in Avengers #136 (Beast was recolored Blue for the cover but was probably still grey on the interior art) I would post the covers of each- but Flickr is being difficult. lol
