New Marvel Legends/6" Appreciation Thread

Despite how basic the figure is I really enjoy Blizzard. Does anyone think we'll see another Blizzard eventually in an Iron Man retro wave? Personally I though Hasbro was going to repaint this figure and make a Firebrand.

If they do make new Blizzard figure in the Retro Iron Man line, he must be sculpted and painted like he did in the 90s Iron Man cartoon.

I have no clue about the comic, but that cover art is pretty lackluster.

I also like the fig, the paint and plastic were very cool in conjunction. As far as whether or not we could see it again...c'mon man, of course we could. As ML collectors we should all change our middle names to 'Phil' in honor of Bill Murray and our ongoing Groundhog Day experience with Hasbro. If we do see it again, I hope they at least provide some snazzy effects.

EvilMonkeyPope · 07-06-2021, 03:33 PM

You'd think they would've made some ice blasts to share with Iceman.
If they do a "retro" version, I want Blizzard in his animated costume with an icicle spear & an ice boxing glove.

TheBlueMarvel · 07-06-2021, 03:40 PM

He has a couple of cool costumes. While I'd be happy with the original many of the T-bolts unis are pretty chill also.

Boogieman4hire · 07-06-2021, 04:25 PM

I think the one we already got was near perfect if not for his having no ice effects. Personally I like the costume he has that's got the white head and the spiky white shawl.

TheBlueMarvel · 07-06-2021, 06:57 PM

That's exactly one of the T-Bolts uni's to which I was referring.

I say "T-Bolts" because I'm fairly certain that's Grummet's art from his run on the book..

Yes that very costume. I love that look. Much more than the one with the headsock and ski goggles.

EvilMonkeyPope · 07-06-2021, 10:37 PM

I want the Gregor Shapanka/Donnie Gill mash-up costume:

Classic Loki is awesome.

How has no one else called attention to the Dairy Queen sticker? That’s hilarious. I wouldn’t mind another Blizzard (Shapanka’s costume would make a cool figure), but I think he would also pegwarm even harder the second time around. With that in mind, I think Firebrand will be made sooner or later. That would make me happy because it would mean we finally have a Scourge of the Underworld victim in Marvel Legends… which means I can start demanding the rest of them! Steeplejack! Basilisk! Cyclone! Which would of course require a classic Scourge.

… really if we were to get anybody the Scourge killed, it’d probably be Melter.

I’m down for an entire Loki wave. This is by far the best Marvel series Disney+ has put out so far.

Yeah he's the Dairy Queen Blizzard. I was surprised no one else had said anything about the sticker. And I agree with you on his potential pegwarming which is why even though I would like another I'm not sure we'll see that. Firebrand would rule and Scourge would be even cooler. Also definitely Melter. And Letha. I want all the Grapplers especially Screaming Mimi. Death Adder. Damn there actually is quite a few in there that would be awesome.

Shit, I forgot about Death Adder somehow! He was always my favorite Serpent Society member, his look is so cool. It’d never happen, but I’d like a Bar With No Name boxset based on issue 319#. Actually, scratch that, we got Elvis M.O.D.O.K. Anything can happen.

True. Heres to hopin’ coldblood and the whizzer get a fig soon.

Yeah, I absolutely HATE Elvis Modok- but how can you say no to The Captain?

Heads up Hulk people, She Hulk finally shipped and Maestro is shipping early. Both from Pulse.

Nimrod · 07-08-2021, 11:18 AM

Been a while since I took out my HFC Mercs. I hope Hasbro does a re-release of these guys on the Pulse so I can get at least 5 more.

hasbroherofan · 07-08-2021, 12:33 PM

New Fan First Friday next week.

jwyss234 · 07-08-2021, 01:21 PM

I’m guessing we’ll see more of the retro FF wave next Friday. Since Marvel just released the trailer for What If?, maybe we’ll see a couple of figures from that wave like Captain Carter.

Harbinger · 07-08-2021, 01:40 PM

I’d like to see Fantomex get a release in his black costume.

Not being an army builder in 1/12, I have an extra one. Hit me up if you'd like it.
