New Marvel Legends/6" Appreciation Thread

Boogieman4hire · 07-16-2020, 12:18 AM

I have had only the vaguest memories from when I was about 6 of watching X-Men: the animated series but I started fresh a few days ago. Man-oh-man have I been missing out. I love it and it's given me a newfound appreciation for so many characters. Makes me sad that I had to let go and sell my Juggernaut wave Rogue a few weeks ago because she went from being someone I always liked okay enough to being my favorite X-lady. Also never saw the appeal of Mojo but that episode was awesome. I could keep gushing about this show and all it's cool unique things, like Mr. Sinister's pointy teeth, but there's so many things that have come and gone that I now hope to one day own in legends.

I ordered a "pack" of 8 - doesn't say if it's a set or a case...I think they didn't offer the 7 figure offer which is why it may not specify. I know I pretty much placed the order within a minute or two of it going up and did not order anything else with it. I'm sure that can affect order status. Hopefully you get your notice soon!

That’s a great idea!

Random thought of the day:
I'm thinking we might get one more X wave this year (after Deadpool), which will round out a few things. It could include a few things like a new AoA Sabertooth, X-Force Rictor and Feral, probably some other Wolverine, and Syrin. Then, I'm betting we get an Excalibur box set with Shadowcat, Rachel, a repainted Nightcrawler, Captain Britain and Megan. Similar to the Alpha Flight set from last year. That will then pave the way for a HoX PoX wave(s) since the 90's would be pretty much done.

Happy boy today...

Props to Starlord67 for the deal on Meph & Watcher

I really hate the paint wash on ToyBiz marvel legends, they always looks kind of grimy. I don't have as much issue with the molds, and I think Blackheart still is an awesome figure. Good haul all around!

Thor Laserpunch · 07-16-2020, 07:56 AM

Thanks. I know what you mean and that effect doesn’t really age well on more solid colored costumes but there’s still plenty of gems from the good ol’ Toy Biz line.

Thanks! Day ain't over...

Strong Guy wave just arrived! Just in time too. I'm hearing there may be some big shake up the next day or two with work, if the worst happens I'm going to have to cut back way back way way back. At least I'll have this!Hopefully the worst won't happen!

Thor Laserpunch · 07-16-2020, 11:54 AM

Good luck!

No legends out i didnt already have but did get the alpha pred, which is motherf&$king awesome as hell and the ranger slayer.

Bo Ttef · 07-16-2020, 12:39 PM

My EE guy just got the StrongGuy set so I should have him shortly. X-Factor is starting to look good!

Bo Ttef · 07-16-2020, 01:01 PM

Time to invest in the X-Force Warpath I guess... lol.

oh very nice shot! Yes, having the more "modern" X-Force Warpath is great, as it's been so long since he's been in the OG X-Force costume.

I really do hope they give us an X-Force Psylocke. She sticks out with that group. No offense intended on your shot, it's just the colors she comes in. Classic and needed but too bright for X-Force

Oh, that's not good. Shake ups are never a good thing. I just told my school district that I will NOT take a single sub job for at least the first 8 weeks of the school year as my health is not worth their measley $120 a day.

I'll have to figure something about regarding the Strong Guy wave since now all my money is going to focus on the Sentinel and a few other things.

If the Nimrod pack does indeed include her and Fantomex then her X-force colors would be the most logical choice. I know the lineup itself already isn't really sensible but at least with Psylocke and Fantomex they were only really a pair in Uncanny X-force.

Bo Ttef · 07-16-2020, 02:34 PM

Thanks- it's a fun shelf!

yeah- can't see pairing her with Fantomex and NOT going with X-Force colors.

With the 90's Daredevil Armour now getting a release what are the odds we might get the 90's Cap Armour (or Silver Spider-Man)
