I just love how StarWars Black is maintaining the 19.99 pricing for 6 in. Kinda hate that Jabba and Biker Scout gonna be $40 bucks but oh well..they did make detailed awesome figures. Except slave leia

They don't have any obligation to do so of course, but I feel the same way everyone else does. I'm very attached to ML and if they ever wanted to put out a survey online for collectors of any brand, I'm sure they would get some really great feedback and lots of crappy ones at the same time lol.

I feel lucky in a way, because we got a new Emma, and we're getting Stryfe, Ororo and Magneto. I like the ASM2 Spideys, Cap Now, Boomerang, Black Cat, Zemo, Wrecking Crew, Madame Mask etc. I don't however expect every figure made to be my dream version, even though I buy them all, it's just not practical to expect it.

Too many conventions have come and gone without 'official' word on what they have planned with the lines in Marvel and other brands IMO, some companies have no problem and are infact excited to tell you things, but I don't 'sense'? It from the Legends perspective. Let's face it, ML has a big base of fans, they didn't bring the line back because they knew it would fail. I continue to hope that a rep from Marvel or Hasbro or both would visit forums like this from time to time, even if it was just to say 'Hold on until October, we've got something coming up and we'll let you in on it then' kinda thing.

It may be too much to ask from 'big toy' companies to care about much more than profit, but at the same time we are getting some really good figures sprinkled into the waves in the last while, and it can't be because they're not listening in somewhere, or everywhere lol.

I'm personally not worried if we don't get a wave of figures from the Fantasic Four movie, or Dr.Strange or Antman and if we didn't get them from GotG it would have been ok with me too. I can see how FF can bring us some amazing figures, but do I want the 4 in movie version? - no. All I'd want is great comic versions of them and some of their awesome enemies. Would that happen? - no.

DoFP figs would be great too, mostly, but where we are in the 'return' of ML is thin ice, at least for awhile. Hasbro and Marvel/Disney want to make products that will sell as much as possible, no peg warmers and they sure don't want their products ending up at TJMaxx etc. If the current boom in popularity continues we'll see more waves in a year, bodies will be updated etc etc. And if you look at the 'success' of the X-Men box set that fans were clammoring for, for a very long time, then you might have perspective on why they big companies aren't flooding every shelf in every store with ML's.

Just so you know, like Dave Vonner said in that interview he did last August, this line was and is a dream come true for me, so I'd hate to see it over saturate or burn too brightly too soon this time around. What I'm also saying, is that it's far too early to worry too much.

(I feel like I've said this before lol)

sorry if this rant wasn't edgy lol

That being said, the Nova is the best damn figure Hasbro has done.

From TRU.com It says they dont charge until the items ship. But I placed my order and they did charge me already.

I'll call tomorrow and see what that's about. I don't mind being charged now but they shouldn't until my stuff ships.

just ordered the set plus and additional Styfe....
Tooo Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!

on a side note...Notice the price is 14.99 at TRU!! Whats going on considering the SRP had been 19.99 for Cap,Spdey and GOTG....

8.99 for a second figure is how it should have been all along!
