Last week was the first Monday of the month, they revealed Maestro.

Dorkside is on "fire" so far this year - just got my payment notice for Firestar - I would guess I'll get it this week based on how fast I got the X-Men wave

That....will actually officially catch me up on Legends with nothing else on preorder (as yet, still torn on that Maestro but leaning towards waiting for a sale or a classic release). And no other waves ready to order yet....have we been in this spot before? Like there's not another wave even revealed in full except the Eternals but that was a leak not an official reveal and that's months off anyways I'm sure.

Wish dorkside would carry fortnite figs.cause i cant find any of thew new ones anywhere.

Spyne98 · 02-08-2021, 03:52 PM

Got most of the Stilt Man wave today. I am so excited! I currently have two stilt extensions on the build a figure and I might end up getting a few more. He’s going to be so tall!

And thank you for correcting me on the marvel Monday stuff. I didn’t think there was one today but I just wanted to check.

Dorksidetoys.com shipment arrived with Cyclops, Jean Grey and Moira. Cyclops is good. I like having the extra head with the optic blast. Jean has an extra thick skirt. It is 10x thicker than Moira/Gwen/MJ. Her legs can't move. I saw a mod on another board that I may try with White Rabbit's thighs. I wish Jean came with an unmasked Head. Don't know why she needs fists or the plant. Moira looks great. I bought 2 extra for Kitbashes. I skipped the other figures. Firestar is on her way!

Captain Nash · 02-08-2021, 04:41 PM

Come on Hasbro, Bring On the Bad Guys!

(literally)

JCarterVA · 02-08-2021, 04:49 PM

If anyone needs Walmart Unworthy Cap, Entertainment Earth has him up for order.

lmao Yep, Maestro was such a shitty ass reveal that people have forgotten that was this month's Monday reveal.

God I hope Hasbro actually shows off something that isn't a garbage dump of a character this month.

I've been finding them at Target. The new regular 6" figures and the Deluxe Legendary Brawlers.

I think they only do Fan First Fridays every two weeks, but who knows.

Veronica Mars · 02-09-2021, 09:25 AM

Since they recast Cassie for Ant-Man 3, think we'll get a comic Stature soon or will an MCU version be first?

That's a good question. I'd assume MCU since we got an official version of her as Stinger in that Ant-Man 2 pack a few years back. I could be wrong. I actually have a custom one that I was thinking of selling of anyone is interested.

Also, Hasbro did a Fan First Friday for Star Wars and now they're doing a Power Rangers ones this week. I assume Legends (and Transformers) will happen soon.

Veronica Mars · 02-09-2021, 04:55 PM

Picked up a second Storm 2 pack on clearance and swapped the hair

Captain Nash · 02-09-2021, 05:48 PM

Ya'll. Miss lion is articulated.

I mean, it' just 1 POA but it counts. We got an articulated Miss Lion.

(oh, btw it's her neck, her head can swivel)

Captain Nash · 02-09-2021, 06:17 PM

You're welcome! Firestar is neat too I just think it's funny we have a (very semi and limited ) articulated Miss Lion.

Spyne98 · 02-09-2021, 06:24 PM

Awesome! Wasn’t the dog brown in the cartoon?

Yeah, true, I forgot that actually. Perfect for a re-release with Aunt May.

ThorOdinson123 · 02-09-2021, 07:00 PM

Entertainment Earth got the former walmart exclusive Worthy Cap from Endgame in stock.

https://www.entertainmentearth.com/p...d=PR-409059264

Also their ebay store

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Lege...YAAOSwOK9gG6mh

I just ordered mine off their ebay store. I have been after that figure for 2 years no thanks to the fucking incompetence of Walmart and asshole scalpers. So pumped to replace my Civil War Cap

I remember they mentioned Ms. Lion being based on the Pet Avegers look, not the cartoon

En Sabah Nerd · 02-10-2021, 02:19 AM

Got my first two figures from the Stilt-Man wave in from Amazon. Obviously Peter does not come with the burger but I had to let him borrow it since he has the drink (the burger came with the DST Jules from Pulp Fiction). Getting my complaint out of the way, my figure's lower left knee hinge is seriously stuck (heating it up did nothing) and some other joints took some effort to get moving which isn't what I like to see on a Hasbro figure. Other than that though I really dig hobo Peter. The expressions on his faces are great (although I wish the partly masked head also had the stubble paint) and I like all else that he comes with. Gwen is pretty great then except that mine's left knee is even worse than Peter's. Both hinges are locked and I'm seriously worried I'm gonna break it somehow if I keep on going at it with the hairdryer to try and loosen it up. Everything else though is moving alright and she can stand perfectly well so I'm not losing sleep over it. Both heads straight up nail her look and I also feel like the hips are a bit retooled from previous versions for a little more range. I think my only bonus wish for this figure would've been to include some wall-crawling open hands. Of course that is totally made up for then by also getting Spider-Ham who gets pretty decent mileage out of only having a ball-jointed head.
