New Marvel Legends/6" Appreciation Thread

Hulkwummy · 07-14-2020, 02:58 PM

I was hoping for something new to be revealed today, like the rumored Thunderbird to go in a two-pack with First Appearance Storm.

Alpha Flight sale if anyone needs it.

The Family Matters 3 pack and the Captain America & Peggy Carter set are no longer on sale.

Wow, $64.11 is a great deal for six figures.

Bo Ttef · 07-14-2020, 03:55 PM

Considered another for that price but there's not a lot of fodder value in the boxy. But the Family pack (Magneto/QS/SW)for $40 and PeggyCarter 2pk for $20 were must (re)buys

Was all the tiers unlocked on the Haslab Sentinel already?

Basically, yes. There's a prevalent assumption that there might be more. Maybe someone from Hasbro hinted there might be?? It'd be great if there were more add-ons to reveal (cough cough, Laser Blast Effects, ahem). Either way, the fact that they've nearly doubled their minimum in a fraction of the proposed time frame leads me to believe they weren't prepared for any new reveals so soon, if there are to be any.

That Dan Yun fella did hint at more tiers on twitter or somesuch.

That's such a nice Widow bash! I want to try and do something very similar.

I thought they were showing the Hellfire club boxset or Storm/T-Bird 2 pack. I don't collect movie based figs so this was a huge meh reveal to me, plus the 20th anniv X-Men figs looks like they were made 20yrs ago.

Shinzero02 · 07-14-2020, 06:34 PM

Ugh... Looks like I waited too long hoping for a Magneto family pack sale. Amazon seems to have run out of stock sold directly by them and the resellers are all $80+

I can't wait until Hasbro gets that new female body into circulation! We need it so bad!!

I know!

Hulkwummy · 07-14-2020, 08:29 PM

We need a Neo-Classic black suited Black Widow, with an open collar shirt.

Would that one also work for Titania? She's long overdue, as are many female villains of note. Of course, she has all those little spiky things that probably would be hell to mold.

They could put her on the Thundra body and just add a couple wrist/leg bands with spikey bits on them

They need to retire that body ASAP, the hip articulation is archaic at best. The proportions are all off, the arms are too short. They can stick to the new She-Hulk body

lol- complaints about the bodies always crack me up. I haven't not liked a Marvel Legend since they upgraded from those weird ball hips. I think folks get a little picky sometimes.

Bo Ttef · 07-14-2020, 10:54 PM

... except the lack of boobs and hips on all the modern female bucks is funny on some figures (White Queen for example) and i would want the Moonstone buck back for some characters.

edit- and quick edit before i get "perv bashed" lol. Just mean that the athletic build is not right for every single female figure the same way the Nuke body isn't right for every male.

The weird t-joint hips on the red She-Hulk body are straight trash, and the arms being to short is especially apparent on the A-Force She-Hulk, I've seen more than a few mods where they swap her arms with the Annihilus wave Banshee. They have the new body, why not use it? They could probably stand to use the Angela body more often too. Not all the modern female bodies are lacking, Lady DP has decent sized chest, I think she might reuse the Ashley Barton torso. They need to work on the modern female body's hips too, they're really narrow. Ideally they could combine The upper torso from the Moonstar body with the lower torso from Hellcat to achieve a more feminine form
