Unfortunately I dumped my spare parts from that wave a while back, but there's a bunch floating around on Ebay at reasonable prices...unless you are trying to get Bullseye along with him.

I'll take a look, but I believe I sold off my extra Man-Thing parts last year.

I played around with a couple of different options in trying to replicate Colleen's sneakers, but unfortunately, I couldn't find one that really worked. The shoes from the MCU figure don't fit on the Widow body (and are a completely different white) and the issue is that most legends characters that have the shoe/boot lace molds tend to be smaller figures on teen bodies. Ideally, I'd love to use the croc/sneaker styled shoes that come with the new Sue Storm, but even then getting them painted to match this rather shiny pearlescent plastic that they used for Widow's catsuit is gonna be a ridiculous challenge to color match, so I'm probably just gonna stick with this as is until Hasbro gives us a proper Daughter of the Dragon...

Have you tried the GwenPool sneakers on this body?

Good call! I had dismissed Gwenpool simply because she was on a teen body (therefore the feet would most likely be too small to properly fit on the Widow foot peg without some sort of extra modifications) but upon taking another look at Gwenpool, she actually uses that ball peg system at the ankles similar to Udon Taskmaster, and the shoes are a bit larger than the feet found on the traditional teen mold, making for a perfect fit.

Of course they would need to be painted up a bit, and I'm really not sure if I wanna track down a fodder Gwenpool now just for the shoes (even though people on Ebay are practically begging you to buy her from them with their low prices...lol)

I miss the days of when we had a few talented customizers out there mass casting Legends parts and accessories, before Hasbro gave them the cease and decist.

Not at all surprised, my Dark Beast now has a May 7th delivery date. Not worried about it, just so long as it doesn't get cancelled I'm content to wait until they're able to ship it out. Better luck to the rest of ya'll

Mine was the same as yours. I got tracking info Monday and it was delivered today. Don't worry, it should be coming.

Nice! It’s too bad Hasbro doesn’t sell parts like Lego does. “Two shoes, *click*, color WHITE, *click*. Done and done”

This is something I have been wanting Hasbro to do for years. If they would have known how many pairs of Spider-Man hands I would have picked up over the years, it could probably have funded all new tooling for a deluxe sized BAF at the very least.

It's strange...because while Hasbro will always say that they are "inspired" by the collector and customizer community, lately it's been feeling like they "support it"...but only on their own terms.

Take for example the new head and neck systems that they began using for several figures within the Black Widow wave, and have been using for a while on the vast majority of their newer Black Series figures. In most cases, the heads are very difficult (if not impossible) to pop off without resorting to boil and pop methods, and the heads often at times won't work on other figures unless you permanently alter them. Parts that we have grown accustomed to easy removal (such as hands) are also recieving similar treatments. It is almost as if they are trying to discourage us from kit bashing and part swapping at all.

Oh, that Marvel Girl is lovely. She’s one of my biggest wants from Hasbro. I mean, all three are excellent looking, but Jean especially looks fantastic! The paint is fantastic, the colors are brighter and more “comic book” than a lot of Hasbro’s offerings. Also, does anyone else see a lot of Taarna from “Heavy Metal” in Clea?

Edit: do I spy the beginnings of a Moondragon behind them?

@Ultra Seven...
Thanks for the kind words..I really appreciate it. I really want Hasbro to do Jean in this costume as well. And yes..that is Moondragon in the works. She will be the 5th one I've done. I just used a different head this time.

I wish Hasbro sold BAF Parts sans figure they come with.

If they did that then a lot of people would not buy the figures and just wait for Individual BAF Parts to go on sale and the Company would lose on making ML and they Marvel Legends would go under.

I get not selling them right away, but I really think they should sell the BAF parts after like a year or something. They could produce a limited supply and sell them so that people can finish the figures they weren't able to.
