I'd like to get a "suited" Marvel Legends fig to go with the spare Norman Osborne head that I have. Any opinions on the one you prefer? And if so, where's the best place to get a spare "suited" body?

Just did the math for Galactus.

In order for him to get approved it would have to be an average of 138 backers per day until 8/30/21

I don't think that's going to happen unless something crazy gets announced.

I like the Professor X body. It may not be 100% comic accurate, but I kind of like the green suit nodding to his alter ego.

[redfox]

The green suit can be comic accurate for Norman Osborn. He's a business dude that wears lots of suits, including green ones.

I know it's not Marvel Legends, but my Marvel Select Titanium Man shipped from a third party Amazon seller this week. I figure it's relevant to Marvel Legends as he's a larger character anyways, should scale just fine.

Also the Quasar that I bought off Ebay is out for delivery so that's nice.

Also went out to a few stores the middle of this week. Lots of Iron Man wave figures out there, and a handful of HOX/POX, Bring On the Bad Guys (mainly the Hood and the AIM scientist), and a few Shang-Chi legends though not as many as a month ago. Surprisingly no Disney + wave 1 figures. Really though almost all Iron Man wave.

With the next D+ wave shipping in February, and only the AOA X-Men wave for what's been officially revealed in the meantime, I do wonder what kind of presence Legends will have in the store the next few months. We know the F4, Eternals and probably Spider-Man waves will be coming "soon" but I wouldn't be surprised if the Spider-Man and even the F4 waves are not until 2022. I'm just hoping the AOA wave is still set for Sept/Oct. Eternals....I'm sure it'll come if the movie comes, they're just waiting to officially reveal it to be more sure the movie won't get pushed back, even though it seems like we've known about it for at least 3, maybe 6 months.

@Dr Kain and @Harbinger - I am so sorry for your losses. I wish you both well during this difficult time for you, your friends and family members.

@Captain Nash - I'd be disappointed if the Fantastic Four wave was bumped to next year since Marvel Legends hyped up 2021 for the team in honor of their 60th anniversary year, but I'd certainly understand. Spider-Man, on the other hand, is a wave I could easily see being pushed back to 2022 if 'No Way Home' gets delayed again due to Covid. I do hope we'll see more comic book based figures for Spider-Man and other heroes within the next year and beyond, as Covid continues to push back planned movies and TV series and is already delaying several planned toylines as it is. I'm more interested in the comic side and Retro side of Marvel Legends anyway and there are several anniversaries for 2022 (the 60th anniversaries of Ant-Man, Hulk, Spider-Man and Thor; the 30th anniversary of "X-Men: The Animated Series"; the 20th anniversary of Marvel Legends and of Sam Raimi's original 'Spider-Man' film; etc.) for Hasbro to make all-new figures of/from.

I hope you all are having a great day and I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend. Stay safe, everyone.

Nah, it'll happen, but I doubt we'll reach Tier 1. For one thing, stores like BBTS and Dorkside don't usually place their orders until the tail end of the period, so that will add up.

Unicon had an extra mo. So can Nova.

Just ask Hasbro 1-800-255-5516

Great Pulse livestream today. My head hurts though, I was all for the Rictor/Cannonball/Domino 3 pack until they said it was a HasbroPulse/Disney Shop exclusive. Why do they make greatly wanted figures and then release them so they're frustratingly difficult to obtain?

Fantastic Four wave - great reveals, even though I'm just in for the High Evolutionary (who looks kind of odd). I'm hoping we'll get some more villains and supporting cast who have never gotten legends before though, maybe next year - Crystal, Wizard, Attuma, c'mon.

I'm now thinking we won't see Excalibur set/wave/etc released until next year, but they still have nearly 4 months to build up the reveals for it.

Thoughts:

Stoked for that Rictor! That Hasbro Pulse member is paying off with that live stream!

I really wish they would update us on the Sentinel release dates.

Where can I get that FF shirt Ryan was wearing?

No clue on that hand they teased.

That FF wave looked great, now to decide if I want to leave in package. Those blisters look awesome.

I sense Feral coming soon, X-Force completion seems like a priority for the team.

Oh I know, it still doesn't lessen the frustration. Thank you for the logic backup though.

@Archangel, the hand is apparently teasing Morbius from Spider-Man TAS.

[redfox]

Loved to see all of the reveals, but I'm probably most excited for the simple clear Sue. Feel like that's a niche one that I've been begging Hasbro for.

[usernamedustin]

Feral should have been before Rictor.
Hopefully the X-Force 3-Pack isn't stupidly priced. They didn't mention price did they?

[Captain Nash]

I meant to add too, I hope that's the last we see of those special effects Rictor comes with. It's been a while , but they're running out of colors.

I don't see the issue with Pulse given they're readily available there and the price will be high enough to get free shipping.

No idea why it would be a Disney Store exclusive though when they just closed all of the Disney Stores.

Did they say when it would go up for preorder?

I'll definitely buy Psycho Man and flaming Human Torch, but I'll pass on the rest. I prefer the blue and black Kirby inspired costumes. I do like the hair on the new Sue, but the face looks really bad. No interest in High Evolutionary as he isn't an actual FF villain. Would have rather had Rama-Tut, Diablo, or Mole Man.

Not interested in animated Morbius, but if there is an Animated Hobgoblin I'd be game as long as it isn't shaded like Venom was.

That base that would come with Nova that could work with Torch would be awesome. A shame we'll never get that.

Eh, I have anxiety. even with meds I worry. It's just what I do.

I think they said the preorder goes up tomorrow.

Well given it's 3 and a half figures, I expect it will be about $80.
