Yeah, good eye on Legion. Re-use abounds and is coming at a faster clip. Deathstrike's legs found a quick home with AoA Kitty...

They better not think they can get away without putting out a Silver Age Sandman.

The only Toad I know of is the medieval cosplaying Down Syndrome-looking guy.

And OOOHHH. That Colossus might be the perfect base for my Death's Head custom.

I would like his Frightful Four costume for the sake of cohesiveness and accuracy but I highly doubt Hasbro cares that much about Sandman. I'm sure the thinking is there's been three options so far. Take your pick. Again would be nice though.

Quick question. Does an Ursa Major shit in the woods?

The neck looks fine to me. What's the issue? It's Rogue's neck that looks weird to me as if it is long as hell.

Been a long long time since i read some of the Age of Apocalypse comics back then. Forgot if Angel had his plain angel wings or if he was a rich human. also i think Emma Frost had a head scar or something since Apocalypse and his goons did brain surgery on Emma Frost or something

^ I wonder if Ant-man has ever been like half-size... he is usually very tiny or giant... I think it would freak me out if Ant-man were walking everywhere like a skinny hobbit sized human all the time.

And now I'm just looking at Marvel Legends in general for characters I like.

I've played myself.

Legends is indeed a slippery slope... before you know it your toy fund is like completely drained for the next couple of months. The only good thing is that IMO Legends actually tries to complete teams... even if it takes a few years to do so. That's why I never regretted switching from MU to Legends... since I got to actually complete my 90's X-men blue and gold teams in 6" scale. It still kinda bothers me how incomplete my 3.75" X-men display is and how all my X-men are mix and matched from different comic eras.

It happened in the 2nd Ant-Man movie. Hobbit size Paul Rudd was a thing.

There's also a bunch of teams that Hasbro started and hasn't come close to completing. Weren't people on here fretting about Hasbro losing the license and not being able to complete teams just a couple of years ago? To be fair, the only reason some ML teams have started to be completed is because the line has been running for so long. Outside of Star Wars, toy lines don't have this kind of longevity without some kind of forced change/reset in order to appear "innovative and fresh". The final years of the MU line was rife with this nonsense.

People were prognosticating the end of Hasbro's possession of the license here and elsewhere just a few years ago. I doubted it then and I don't see them losing it anytime soon as they are doing a good job, on balance - got my Ursa wave and my eyes weren't lying about lil'Ultron (he's a rapper now), but beyond that, aces all around. I agree with some of what you are saying regarding some teams never getting finished as I'm still waiting for a Phyla-Vell, Moondragon, and , if they are feeling nice, Starhawk (since they made Vance Astro) to finish a DnA Guardians. However, all that said, Hasbro has been engaged in efforts to complete teams as of late with some (Flight) even getting multi-packs. A trend that seems to be giving every indication that it will continue.

Angel had his normal wings and ran a nightclub called "Heaven" as a neutral ground for mutants and humans alike. As it can be imagined, staying neutral didn't work out so well in the end.

Emma Frost had brain surgery to remove her telepathy at some point so she could join the Human High Council, hence the scar. She unlikely will get a figure as she doesn't play much of a major role in the original AoA storyline (but in the 2012 series she did return and it was revealed that the removal was only temporary as she still had her powers...and her charms, as she first sleeps with Victor Von Doom before betraying and murdering him, then becomes the new Queen of Latveria, betrays the human resistance, and joins forces with Weapon Omega).

[Boogieman4hire]

I would like to see what teams they complete in the next couple of years given what we do have. I hope that constitutes the original Thunderbolts team since we already three members. I've definitely wanted to see a Speedball forever and I really like Namorita. Not much of a fan of Marvel Boy but I would get him to fill out the team. Rock Python was more like a flaccid python for Hasbro but I really do want some more Serpent Society. As for new teams, I don't know that anyone else would be interested but one day I really want to own the Great Lakes Avengers. Given controversy with Big Barda I don't know if Hasbro would do so though. But maybe a new Blob would convince them to with all the tooling both could share. It's such a shame that Freeform show of the New Warriors never happened that somewhat mixed both teams. It would've given a push for Squirrel Girl( in furkini with Mime stripe makeup) and Mr. Immortal to get figures, and it would've been amazing to see Milana Vayntrub potray her on-screen.

How are you going to leave out Cosmo, Mantis, and Bug?
I would understand if they never do Guardians Jack Flag, or even regular Jack Flag for that matter.

I was surprised they never made comic Yondu.

Lol For shame! Yeah, I reduced it to those I consider to be most likely and essential. Excepting Starhawk, of course, considering he's on almost no one's radar along with Flag (although I'd love to get him too). Mantis has been done and were they to revisit, there'd be a push and pull between Avengers classic and the Guardians uni - hell, I'm conflicted on that. And can they actually do Bug? I thought the character was swirled up in that Micronauts licensing debacle. Or maybe he's the only Micronaut they (Marvel) do have license for...I forgets...

I meant to ask you about this the other day, but I get distracted easily. You mentioned delivering a High Evolutionary with parts from Mr. Sinister. You don't think he'd be a bit too big on that mold? I know dude can increase his physical stature to match the likes of The Stranger and Galactus, but his 'human' height is just average in my estimation. Also, one man's magenta, is another's pink, and yet another's hot pink! I like how you selected the most manly 'pink' for him! Lol Dude is pink and silver, man! I learned a long time ago to acquiesce to Marvel's crazy color schemes...

Yeah the Micronauts licensing tangle might prevent us from ever seeing Bug.

I admit that my suggestion of using Sinster parts for Herb mainly came from that being the first not-Colossus figure that popped up in my mind when I was thinking of those that already had the sculpted lines. I'd have to agree that generally HE's height is average or only just above it and the use of Sinister's body as a base would suggest he's decided to only partially enlarge himself for no reason. I also have no qualms just saying he's wearing pink, it's a lovely color and you don't often see deadly super-scientists wearing it.

[TheBlueMarvel]

'Real' men (and super-scientists) rock pink! And I forgot to mention that I think Cosmo is the most likely DnA Guardian to be delivered by Hasbro. Meaning, if we only get one more, my money's on him.
