Well I'll definitely be getting Blob. I never liked the grossness factor of the BAF so I never completed him. This one's much more what I'd prefer to add to my collection.

Ronan looks like a retool of Colossus from the Warlock wave.

You might be right about the corrugated arms and shins, but I believe what’s left is new…

Between him and Star-Lord, I’m very happy right now. Of course, it’s never enough, but it is certainly a start!

I’m enamored of how the figure *looks*, but I am somewhat nervous as to how it will move, since my only real issue with Colossus was stiff joints.

What an awesome surprise that Star Lord was, I was flabbergasted…and my gaster is pretty hard to flabber.

I haven’t messed around with that Colossus since I bought it, but, coincidently, I recently brought it back to the house from storage in an effort to organize my bins to make for easier photo-access (themed boxes; cosmic, magic, Spidey, Panther, kung-fu guys, etc) and will play around with it today. I vaguely remember it’s joints being strangely tight.

Galactus has arrived! He and Morg are phenomenal. Frankie Raye is great, but how in the world do you get her to stay in this flame stand thing, LOL? Surfer having a flight stand is super cool. The back of the box is pretty neat, too. I may look to cut that out (just below the Haslab logo) and use it as a backdrop.

I can't say much for my weekend FedEx delivery person right now. The package was supposed to be signed for, and I even have explicit instructions on my account that all deliveries are to come to my front door. Not only did this fool drop it without getting a signature, he/she left it at the side of my house in my driveway. I only knew it arrived because I saw another parcel they dropped off had blown out into the street.

Oh well...Galactus is here! And he's awesome. Now I just have to figure out where to put him.

Also, super excited for both Blob and Ronan.

So Mojo, Blob, and Ronan all got new figures now. Will Annihilus, Brood Queen, or Nemesis/Holocaust be next?

I'm definitely in on this and Ronan. I hope there's a way to retool this to give us a Big Bertha. Honestly I just love the Great Lakes Avengers.

Gonna pass on Ronan, but I love the pic of the kitty on the Galactus box.

I'll definitely be interested in all three of those, but hopefully if they do a new Brood Queen it is mean there are drones on the way too.

Hulkwummy · 10-23-2022, 04:12 PM

I got the Build-A Figures of Annihilus and AOA Holocaust from the early Hasbro years on my Marvel Legends display, both need an update sometime after Blob and Ronan the Accuser, maybe Fin Fang Foom and classic Giant Man will be a couple of Haslab projects.

ThorOdinson123 · 10-23-2022, 05:37 PM

Check Amazon lots of Legends with clippable coupons that bring the figures under 25 bucks if you have Prime and don't have to pay shipping

Liking this, next year seems to be a good one for Marvel Legends, they are bringing back some classics from the ToyBiz Marvel Legends line. Which I think is a great move. Keep bringing back some of the classics, and it could pan out to be one of Hasbro's best years, if not, the best. Have not been this excited for Marvel Legends in a long time.

I kind of want to display just this

Lizards don't have to pay taxes, lizards aren't beholden to any laws, this election cycle vote for Dr. Curt Connors. He'll turn us all into lizards!

So yeah I just stumbled across Lizard at a local Walmart, he was in a cardboard display along with kids toys for the upcoming movies and a bunch of the also-exclusive Civil War Black Panther reissue. I am going to display him with the classic gecko head since the hands and feet don't have claws to match the monitor head but in hand I do like the monitor style head better than when it was just pictures online. The Erlenmeyer flask is great but I find the round-bottom flask a little disappointing since the insert to make it look like it's not empty is just a cylinder sitting there not at all like a liquid. Is he waiting for his frozen treat to melt so he can drink it? The conical plug in the Erlenmeyer is much nicer. Overall he's a perfectly fine figure and it's nice to have a Lizard in the line that isn't a BAF with a Jurassic Park noggin.
