Ant-Man & The Wasp Quantumania MCU Wave shown today. I am good with my Cull Obsidian wave Ant-Man and the Wasp figures I got for 10 bucks a piece in 2018. Not a must upgrade in my opinion

Yeah I’m just in for the Kang figure myself. Which I figured would be the case. I’m nearly out of collecting MCU figures but i do want one of all the bigger names. This might be it for me for MCU legends until we see Doom and the F4.

I see this wave lingering on shelves for a while, Kang & Ultron non-withstanding.

Which is a shame, because I applaud character choices like Crossfire & Egghead, while recognizing that they’re not usually hot sellers. A classic comics version of Ant-Man or Wasp would have been a smart inclusion here.

I'll likely get the Kang, Ultron and Egghead, but I'm in no rush to get any of them yet. Since we saw Egghead, now we now what body will likely be used for the Bruce Banner for the leaked listing of the Banner/Hulk two-pack in the fourth quarter this year. My question is, will it be a first appearance Grey Hulk with Bruce Banner or another version of Hulk?

P.S. Walgreens exclusive Marvel Legends figures like Baron Zemo, Jigsaw and Quasar are in stock on Amazon right now, just in case anyone didn't know and still needs/wants any of them.

Fine with me if This new version of Ant Man and Wasp hits 10 bucks I might upgrade. The Cull Obsidian Wave MCU Wasp was a huge peg warmer after it came out

I rebought that figure recently and I'm not really pleased with him. Must be why I sold him in the first place. I'll wait for this new Antman to go on sale and buy him.

Spyne98 · 02-08-2023, 01:50 PM

I've been cutting down on Legends, I might be selling a bunch soon too but that remains to be seen. With that said, I couldn't bring myself to pre-order Egghead or Crossfire (since I stuck to comic stuff and not MCU figures). It might be a side effect of rising prices. Part of me certainly has a fear of missing out with some of these. The other part of me feels alright about it.
But in all seriousness, who is Future Ant-Man? I know he's from a comic, but like...which one? I swear this is the first time I have ever seen him.

AFU · 02-08-2023, 04:19 PM

The new Ant-Man wave. All I can do is shake my head. Ultron and Crossfire look good, but I really feel they could have done better than this. BAF Giant-Man would have been an easy choice for this wave, but who am I! Sometimes it makes me wonder are these the same people that thought to make Spiral? Well, I will save money on the wave!

Got Avalanche from Amazon Monday, along with Retro Captain America.

Dr Kain · 02-08-2023, 07:58 PM

I managed to get BP2 Ross today at Target for $3. He didn't have a UPC on the box and when the guy tried to look it up, it said $0, so he asked if $3 was fine.

En Sabah Nerd · 02-08-2023, 08:50 PM

Got Okoye on Amazon for $15. I was really glad she was just a standard release this time around but figured I could wait to save a few bucks and it worked out alright. Reusing the same concept-based spear for the third time strikes me as odd but whatever, it's still pretty cool on its own. This is also my first plastic-free packaging Legends pickup so that was an experience I guess.

Hulkwummy · 02-08-2023, 10:36 PM

When can we expect to see more Marvel Legends reveals? Just asking.

You mean beyond the batch that was revealed like 2 days ago?

I may have to nab that figure. I realize now that it has many accents distinguishing it from the BAF. I assumed it was the same but it is actually different.

Did anyone here order replacement feet for Venom (Venom/Knull two-pack figure) from Anthony's Customs? It's been freaking 4 months and I haven't gotten mine.

(Yes. I've written him. Just seeing if anyone has received theirs)

I received mine a while back after a similar wait. It did not go well. They were sculpted nice but the dremel work was shoddy, and despite heating, once the foot peg cooled and expanded, it literally caused the foot to explode from the inside out. Was a total waste of time and money.

If you have the Marvel Select Venom (which has not aged well imo) pop those feet off and mod them. They're perfectly sized, made of sturdier plastic, and the color and texture match. It only took about 15 minutes minutes to do, and I was really happy with the result.

Alternatively...if you're able to find a KO Spider-Man Classics Venom (as in the Toybiz one commonly found on AliExpress) those also work really well. Plus, those feet have toe articulation.
