TRU has only the spidey line, but at $26.99/figure they can keep them. Still waiting for Cap wave figures to hit retail so I can start army building.

Yeah I'm wondering if Walmart is giving hasbro the finger on the ML figs since Iron man wave was not a great seller.

I have a black cat MOC, got her from the states, I have seen one at retail, and noticed langues stickers, but that's normal for Canadian figures, damn French laws, slowing product lines from hitting retail faster. I still have not seen Cap series yet. I also wish target did online ordering, I go there but the spidey wave is always empty.

Yeah, between the underperforming Spider-Man Legends and Iron Man Legends, as well as the Man of Steel Movie Masters (which were all still clogging pegs up until the recent post-Christmas clearance sales), it would seem that Wal-Mart (if the stores in my area are any indication) is looking to limit the number of 6" figure lines in their stores

Serious Lee · 02-13-2014, 08:08 PM

Iron Man may have sold better if they didn't stagger the waves and then not release the third wave, but who knows? Split cases are not my favourite things

$20 a figure is the other thought many of us have had, is it too much?

I went to 2 walmarts today (both on the verge of reset) and there are 3 pegs waiting for Spidey and friends at each, I don't know if that's good news or not, depending on how fast they're willing or able to restock. I suppose their popularity up here will determine that.

At least you might get them at those Wal-marts, my local Walmarts do not even have a peg for the new series. They've been adamant in carrying the Legends line in stores for some reason. Bummer. They are foolishly missing out on making some money big time.

May be so, I didn't see any ML on pegs nor labels for them either and just about everything MoS is on clearance this past week....

When I was at SDCC last year I spoke with the Marvel Legends brand manager and he told me that the Iron Man Legends sold great. He said they sold 3x the amount of normal Legends assortments which was the reason they were making each new wave tie-in with an upcoming movie.

Just a heads up. Wal-mart.com has the 2nd wave of Cap America Wave up RIGHT NOW. Better get them while they're available.

So has anyone else noticed that Boomerang is a bit loose/wobbly where the legs meet the crotch? I'm wondering if all Boomerang figures have this issue or just mine. If it's just mine I might try to grab another one.

ProfessorHov · 02-15-2014, 02:38 PM

Omg the nova and iron man looking amazing I can't wait for the GOTG legends to
Come out. That nova is amazing. Great line up.

Is anyone else thinking that there might have been more? No sour grapes, I just thought maybe...Jubilee?

BAD MOON · 02-15-2014, 03:56 PM
