20th anniversary Cap with backlit cowl seems very likely for the secret wars wave, imo. I'm really hoping for an updated version of the first retro spidey however but, maybe it's more likely that itll be retro symbiote spidey. Rhodes in classic iron man suit might be a possibility too.
Listing all this stuff, I'm realizing I dont really need any of it (other than retro red & blue spidey) anyway since I've been piecemealing a secret wars lineup and it works well enough.

Those are minor issues to me. Because the product is quite good. There's another dude that stocks the same soft goods. Name is "GPSLot". But I had trouble with him.

That's good to hear. What do you say in your message to that seller? Are you just asking about a shipping time so that they know you're paying attention?

I bought a trench coat from GPSlot a week ago and it arrived the other day. The quality wasn't bad but the arms were way too long. Thankfully, I was able to give it to my Mezco Gambit.

rewatching the first Marvel Avengers movie right now.

Hasbro or whoever ever make a Marvel Legends figure of Avengers 1 Nick Fury?

early 2000s to close to 2010, did Toybiz or Hasbro when they did those lanky Marvel Legends figures, did they even make a Samuel L Jackon nick Fury figure a long long time ago?

Hasbro has done MCU Nick Fury at least twice before the more modern figs...it was released for the Captain America: The First Avenger stand alone line (which I believe was a Walmart exclusive at the time,) and then again in the TRU Shield 3 pack with Coulson and Maria Hill. Both figures were largely the same exact figure, with maybe a minor paint detail here or there.

I'd love to see a list of every single character we've gotten in ML. So not counting multiple looks, just one character covers all their looks. Wonder how many we're up to.

This year also marks the 10 year point of where I feel modern Marvel Legends really hit its stride. Sure, it "returned" in 2012 but didn't really hit great quality until 2014, somewhere around the Winter Soldier wave.

[WallySparks]

While it is nice to see that Hasbro is making new figures for Marvel Legends of characaters from Phase 1 of the first Marvel movies like Thor and Black Widow for Avengers they could at least make a brand new figure of Avengers 1 Nick Fury. pack him with a tesseract cube and a tesseract plasma energy rifle or something.

also the flannel shirt human Bruce Banner figure that got made, its nice but Id rather have Avengers Banner where he wore a purpleish shirt. pair him up with that old junker motorcycle he borrowed from that old guy guard at that abandoned warehouse place

[WallySparks]

new figures along with re-releases that Hasbro should do for Marvel Legends

New
Lou Ferrigno Hulk figure would be nice for Hasbro to make if they could get around to it. Shouldnt be that hard to make from them
Avengers 1 Nick Fury
Avengers 1 purple shirt Bruce Banner
Avengers 1 Hawkeye with big veiny arms
a Chitari multipack
Iron Man 2 Ivan Vanko
Iron Man 2 drones multipack representing each miltiary branch
Iron Man 3 President Ellis

did Hasbro even do a Marvel Legends figure of the 1990s Marvel Hour cartoon Iron Man with the big shoulder pads and Tony with long hair?

more new
some more Age of Apocalypse stuff please. There's stiil Abyss, Bishop, Havok, Sinister and Shadow King in a glass jar container, Gambit

Re-releases
classic Iron Fist
classic brown/tan outit Wolverine for one last time
single carded release of X Factor Havok
single card re-release of brown bomber jacket wearing Cyclops

[Captain Nash]

More AoA stuff would be great. It's just really odd that for all we got, what we didn't get was any of the horsemen. Granted, they made Nemesis but that was 15 years ago now, and could certainly use an update since it was from when Hasbro was still finding its footing in terms of legends (and right before they took a 3 year break from them).

I mean, I'm great to have gotten the AoA figures we did get, but it's just odd none of the Horsemen got made. I still feel like they might be planning to do something for the 30th anniversary, but I'm probably just hoping too much. Storm, Quicksilver, Nightcrawler, Mystique would be great to get. And Dazzler but she'd got to include an alternate cigarette smoking head (that won't happen). And Bishop, who was absolutely central to the story, if not the lynchpin setting everything into motion. In a way, he's as important to the story as Magneto and Apocalypse.

Where are people doing their figure shopping these days? I am still struggling to find a retailer that's right for me ever since Dorkside closed. I've gotten dependent on Amazon but would like to find somewhere else. I don't use BigBadToyStore too much anymore because California based stores take over a week to get to me. With the price increases, I can't purchase as quickly and stock sometimes runs out too quickly on me, especially any Spider-Man waves. So looking for quick shipping and always in stock. Not too much to ask?

[Dr Kain]

Depends what it is. I pretty much use Amazon for most of Hasbro's figures and BBTS for the ones Amazon won't sell. I use Tokullectibles for some Toku items I don't want to get at BBTS whether it's because it's cheaper or BBTS requires a down payment.

BBTS is in Wisconsin not Cali. You might be confusing them with Entertainment Earth, who are Cali-based. It's usually at least 2 weeks for me getting an order from EE but, the real reason why I dont order from them too much anymore is because they raised the free shipping condition to $79.
Too many instances of putting 2 or 3 figures in my cart and then looking around for something to add to my order in order to hit that $79. And since most of their stock seems to be in pre-order status, I'm pretty much left with random pops,magnets & coffee mugs. So eventually, I usually just end up leaving that junk in my cart and waiting it out elsewhere for what I wanted in the first place.
Yeah, I miss dorkside too.

When is the next livestream for Marvel Legends?

[WallySparks]

I still order star wars and once in awhile Marvel Legends figures from mostly bigbadtoystore and hasbropulse

but there are times when i order from cmdstore and staractionfigures to get some figures early and quicker

I tend to use BBTS if not Amazon, only because the $4 flat rate shipping is the most reasonable

Probably early next month, the next GI Joe Classified stream is Feb 1st and the Marvel Legends streams is usually not long after

[StuartGreen2019]

I've never used Big Bad Toy Store before and I think I might be missing out by the sounds of it. How fast do you guys get your toys and items shipped from there? I had heard that they were slow to send things out.

Personally, I use Amazon and sometimes GameStop and Entertainment Earth. I usually have no problem with finding enough things to make the $79 total for E.E. My problem is getting up to $79 to make the order since I am perpetually broke and our bills have gone up considerably. I have a lot of Legends items I'm still wanting to add to my collection, but bills naturally come first.

Whenever we get a livestream, I hope it won't be too much longer until we get the pre-orders for the second wave of "X-Men '97" figures. I'm hoping to get Cyclops, Jean Grey and Nightcrawler pre-ordered, but given their popularity, I'm more likely to see them sell out and then re-sold at five times the retail price two weeks later on Ebay.

Depends on what you choose to do. One of the things that is great about them is they will hold your items for 90 days (called Pile of Loot). As such, let's say you know 6 of your preorders are going to arrive within a 5 week period. You can just let BBTS sit on it until all of the items arrive and then have them ship them. It will be $4 plus whatever the tax is on those items (they charge the base price at time of arrival).

Typically, when I have them ship my PoL, they tend to have it shipped out within a few days, sometimes the next day, and then it takes a few days to arrive. I think the one I got back in Nov arrived in 2 days from when it was shipped.

Seeing all the new tooling for Psylocke as Lady Mandarin makes me wish we were getting Deathbird instead.

Same. They should have done Lilandra, Deathbird and 175 Prof X as a 3 pack.

Is the Void series a regular release or specialty only like Mindless One series?

It's like the Mindless One wave, not going to big box stores. I have a feeling this is going to be the standard going forward for waves that don't have a media tie in


Also it looks like Lilandra's pin striping is part of the sculpt, so no reuse of the torso for Outback Psylocke. The face is quite lovely though

I hope we dont just get mcu stuff at retail. A lotta that stuff just kinda sits.

[Dr Kain]

Stupid Hasbro. They're hurting for money, but by not selling these waves in stores, I can't wait for them to go on clearance to buy some of them. I would totally buy Blade and Clea if they were like $15.

That fig looks to be of a level on par with the incredible Spiral fig. I'll wait until it's in hand, but this might be the BEST female figure Harbro has put out (in terms of sculpt) to date.

More of this, Hasbro! Keep this energy.

[hasbroherofan]

Damn. She looks great.

The only gripe i had with spiral was no removable helmet. I did find a basic wwe scarlett with white hair so i use 5hat as the unhelmeted head.
