Awesome! Now I just need to find some old wire hanger. Think it might work for Nightcrawler as well?

Definitely! Even though I have Archangel hanging flush with the wall, if you use a strong coat hanger you could probably bend it and have him leaping over your other figures. You just gotta find something to hang the wire from, and, since I have my Red Dead Redemption map hanging right there, I just use the thumb tacks holding it up, haha.

The scalpers are also creating a peg warming problem. They were 4 movie spiderman and 4 superior spiderman and nothing else. Then stores will not reorder because they think the line is not selling.

I just got Black Cat, and holy cripes! She's officially one of my new favorite Marvel Legends figures.

I don't even like the character so much (I don't read Spider-man), but I saw her and I had to grab her.

The sculpt on Felicia is pretty much perfect. The only flaw I can see is her wrists. The hinge on the right one is at an odd and completely useless angle, while her left hand doesn't have one.

But yeah...gorgeous!

Serious Lee · 02-21-2014, 09:06 PM

Speaking of Black Cat, I just picked up an extra, I'm looking for another AIM soldier if anyone wants to trade. I also ordered an extra Spider-Girl, and when she arrives I'll be looking for another AIM soldier lol, so please keep me in mind guys and gals

I'm not familiar with this female character, can someone please clue me in? Thanks

I believe that's Jessica Jones, wife of Luke Cage and former superhero.

Serious Lee · 02-21-2014, 09:43 PM

Ah yes! Did they have a baby together or am I that far out of the loop?

Yup. They're married now, aren't they? Co-habiting, at the very least.

Jessica is officially one of my least favorite Marvel characters. Ewing is doing a bang up job with her in Mighty Avengers, but I still can't bring myself to like her. Hahaha.

But, yeah, they had a kid. It got kidnapped during Secret Invasion. Doreen (Squirl Girl) was the nanny for a while there. Hahaha.

Thanks guys! In your opinions, does she deserve ML treatment?

There are about 50 female Marvel characters that should get a figure before her.
Lilandra, a new 90's Rogue, Songbird, Ultimate Spider Woman, Jubilee, Deathbird, Medusa, Crystal, Dazzler, Firestar, Rescue (Pepper Pots), A new Rachel Summers (in current red/yellow longcoat or classic Hound/Phoenix outfit), Lady Sif, Blink, Mockingbird, Silver Sable, Polaris, Moondragon, Gamora, Thundra, Diamondback, and most of ALL...A MARY JANE!!!!

This is all just off the top of my head, but I think a few characters might deserve a figure before her. In my opinion.

Those all sound like great choices for figures, but is Jessica Jones (super)? Is she in mainstream Marvel in today's books? What is currently popular sometimes finds it's way into the action figure aisle quickly is all I'm saying, I just honestly don't read much new stuff.

i wouldn't say mainstream now but in the future she will be due to the fact that marvel are making tv shows that will be iron fist (most looking forward to) Dare Devil , Luke cage , and Jessica Jones although these shows are Netflix exclusive not sure if they'll come out on dvd or even tv these shows are meant to come out next year.
and i agree with Phantomcrow there are so many more females we've been waiting for and still yet to receive.

Anybody got luck finding toxin and spidergirl...looking to buy

larryw3158 · 02-22-2014, 10:07 PM

Has anyone in the Chicago area seen these at all?

Got my Wal-mart order. Got another set on the way. I have enough parts to build 3 Mandroids. That gun that WS was lame, so I gave him a better one. BW came with no guns so I also gave her one. Cap needs no extra accessories. Everything he came with works well.

Very nice! I'm here, waiting not so patiently, for my BBTS pre-orders to arrive. They can't get here soon enough.

The feeling is mutual. Up here the WM's don't even have the first wave of Spider-Man on the shelf, hopefully my LCS gets their stuff soon, because I'm itching for my Mandroids too!

klinton · 02-23-2014, 09:15 AM

I've only seen the Captain America Legends once, at TRU. Even then, there was only Marvel NOW Cap and WWII Cap. I grabbed them both (I've been craving a NOW Cap since Hickman's Avengers #1), but I'd really like to find the rest already. Hahaha.

WWII Cap...I feel full cheated. This is the third time I've paid for essentially the same figure. The Diamond Select figure, the 3.75" figure, and this one all share the same tooling. This guy has a bit of texture added to the 'fabric', and some new bits in his upper arms...but it's still the same figure.

ProfessorHov · 02-23-2014, 11:47 AM

After weeks of searching the one day I'm sick new cap wave hits all targets in LA

aefranci · 02-23-2014, 12:35 PM

Which targets? Maybe I can pick one up for you...if its not too late

All the Targets in SoCal got the new cap wave so I missed out on black widow and winter solider. I did manage two movie caps

aefranci · 02-23-2014, 01:02 PM

Damn they just came in today?!
