@Sypne, please please update that post. My eyes!

It's quite odd that they haven't updated Jim Lee Cyclops already, although maybe they're saving it for a big event or something. Seems like a pretty easy figure to do considering they've already made three Cyclops figures on the Bucky Cap mold.

youre missing my point , you want them to remake certain characters but when they do people complain that their is too many of them cause you are counting toybiz legends with the amount of figures a character gets, which is seriously lame to do, i get toybiz are used as a filler til a character is made but holding it against the, for not getting around to characters (that are A or B listers )and never seen in plastic form all while wanting remade in different costumes is crazy.

Captain Nash · 03-07-2016, 12:13 PM

Okay xjuza, I guess I am missing your point.

What would you like to see them make? Where would you like them to focus their priorities?

i want more ironmen and caps duh

edit just joking , what i want is them to be taking on groups of the same themes, as it grows and it completes switch it out costume wise, like say x-men for now i think they should of focused on it being marvel now / modern verisons of the team hero and villain then when the a and b list is complete move on to different outfits adding characters that appreared more in with that era of the group, but ofcourse this is only me.

Well you're in luck. We're getting 2 more Caps this year and at least one Iron Man.

I think you're missing our point. We want remakes for characters that don't already have decent offerings out there. Iron-Man and Cap are not in that category. There's an abundance of them already and they're not as in need of a remake as other characters are.

And we're not complaining about there being too many of them. Captain Nash even stated that we totally understand WHY there's so many of them. We're simply stating that they are all characters expected to get a new figure every 1-2 years and characters that already have a dozen or so figures out there so we just don't get excited over them the same way we would over a new Black Widow or a new Jean Grey. I don't know where you got the impression that we're sitting here complaining about getting a new Cap or new Iron-Man. Our feelings regarding those characters are closer to apathy than anger. The thing is, just because WE don't care to get another figure of them doesn't mean that we're going to argue that they absolutely should not get more figures, like what you're doing with Black Widow.

Haha nothing wrong with that, another reason I got out of the 6 inch is cause as a MISB in this field, I felt best going for the Koto Bish statues, even though they're limited in characters, they do look great with no articulation :P

Too soon, probably know in May the earliest.

It's a good balance to have both male and female characters made.

Agreed, this isn't the "Hasbro" Legends Appreciation Thread

hasbroherofan · 03-07-2016, 12:32 PM

Hasbro is doing a poll for the next Legends replica item.

Thor Mjolnir
Thor Helmet
Black Widow Gauntlets
Ant-Man Helmet
Wasp Helmet
Captain America Helmet
Iron Man Gauntlet
Spider-Man Man
Spider-Man Web Shooter
Star-Lord Mask
Thanos Infinity Gauntlet
Gamora Sword
Magneto Helmet
Cyclops Visor
Deadpool Mask
Wolverine Mask

deadironpoolman · 03-07-2016, 12:36 PM

+1 on the deadpool mask however with copyright restrictions I feel that is highly unlikely sooooo +1 on the thanos gauntlet

A replica Infinity Gauntlet would be so baller

Captain Nash · 03-07-2016, 12:42 PM

i want a cyclops visor and I want one now. I have been told that with sunglasses on I do actually look a bit like an (older) comic cyclops in the face, meaning same general facial structure, so that would be so very cool to have a visor.

Black Arbor · 03-07-2016, 12:42 PM

I'd love a magneto helmet personally, but a Wolverine mask would have more variation potential (classic colors, orange and brown, X Force colors...)

RIGHT? Would wear that ish around the house pissing my gf off 24/7. Do every chore with it on. She would be SOOOOOO annoyed LOLLLLL. Buying the Iron Man helmet for that reason too.

donmeca2020 · 03-07-2016, 12:48 PM

While we're at it about what figures one would want, i NEED a black costume spidey, i'd also like to get more of the sinister six characters together.

As far as replica props go, i would like a wearable Infinity gauntlet. not like the big foamy looking one that came out at SDCC 2 years ago but something better. with real LOOKING gems, instead of just painted on.

I recall as a kid, i thought it was so bad ass, i had my mother make me one out of a grey work glove and a bunch of hot glued on fake colored gems lol i thought it was cool back then.

OMG was totally thinking about needing a black costume spidey this morning. They need to re-use the Pizza Spidey Buck and give us the same options with the hands. I can see it happening.

daetrin · 03-07-2016, 12:54 PM

Oh wow. I am not in the least bit interested.
At least I thought I wasn't... until I read "Magneto Helmet"!!!
What just happened?

I really hope they remember their previous superb eye for detail and put the tiny hole on the white section of his glove!
Then maybe leave out the thwipping hands (unless people really want them) and put in something like an unmasked head in there.

Absolutely!! Would be sick. I don't see why this couldn't happen. We are already getting a secret wars Cap, why not hit the rest of the characters.

Spyne98 · 03-07-2016, 01:10 PM

Oh man! Black Widow Gauntlets!
Just kidding. I'm sure someone would like them but my vote is going to either the Infinity Gauntlet or Magneto's helmet!
