Valeria too tall. Develop a damn small teen/child body, Hasbro!

Sprite has the same issue.

Agreed.

#notmyfranklin.

This set kinda blows tbh. Ignoring the issue of Valeria's outdated body or the fact that every male teen for the next 10+ years will be web compatible due to Hasbro's laziness, these are just looks know one was asking for.

I think it would've been much more beneficial in the long term for Hasbro if they just bit the bullet and made a male and female kid body. Firstly, it would give people the Franklin and Valeria they actually want, but then we could get those molds reused into a bunch of other characters like the Power Pack, Moon Girl, Kid Kajiu, and could go even crazier with more X-Babies and shit like that.

$35 for Spidey?!?!?

They can totally pull of the kid bodies. They did one for the Eternals figure. I forgot her name. She’s like 1000 year old in a little 9 year old girl’s body.

Sprite was the same size as all the other teens in the ML line. She was too big.

IzzyTipsy 01-18-2023 01:00 PM

$35 for the web effects I guess?

GizmoTron 01-18-2023 01:09 PM

They literally made a properly sized Rocket and Hitmonkey, I don't know why they avoid it for human characters. Legends needs to come up with a cheaper assortment/price point where they can produce more smaller, fully articulate figures for children and other smaller characters like a better Spider-Ham.

They are shooting themselves in the foot . 24 was too much but manageable but I was done at 27 . to see price at 35 now doesn't surprise me greed is steering our society.

Zigerlion 01-18-2023 02:56 PM

$35 for a deluxe that has a couple of flimsy effect parts? Bwahaha Hasblow thinks their trash figs are premium like other lines?

Comedian 01-18-2023 03:13 PM

I’ll just echo the shock of everyone at this $35 for a basic figure.

I’m horrified at what the price of Star Wars will be soon.

MeLikeJinx 01-18-2023 03:25 PM

Wow. 35 for that? Too bad they cancelled the new Twilight Zone show a few years ago they could make an episode about action figures costing 35 dollars and everyone thinks it's normal except for the one guy who is going crazy over sticker shock.

lordbest 01-18-2023 03:34 PM

Their height seems fine:

They aren't children any more.

Smasher 01-18-2023 04:16 PM

I wished I had gotten Spider-man in that outfit when it came out for the first game.
But there is no way I'm going to pay $35 for it. ($37 on BBTS).
Is it the actual cost of the figure these days?
Is it the web pieces?
I don't care I'm not paying that much for it.

Also:
I don't understand why this site still follows this archaic paradigm, but why do I have to go through so many URLS to see all of the pictures for the toys in this discussion?
Depending on what you click you may get pictures of Franklin, Valeria and Spider-man or you may just get three pictures of Franklin.

Why does clicking "Discuss on the Toyark Forums" take me to a discussion that removes all of the images?

Is it impossible to just show the thumbnails, all the thumbnails, on the Opening Post and give you the option to comment and reply right there?

You took all of those words right out of my virtual mouth.

Thatannoyingguy 01-18-2023 06:14 PM

I dunno why Hasbro keeps using this buck. Its neck articulation is GARBAGE for Spider-Man.

MeLikeJinx 01-18-2023 09:28 PM

I wonder if that Valeria headsculpt will work for an unmasked Gwenpool... maybe you can color the bottom of hair pinkish somehow.

I used a rachel summers marvel girl from the old brood wave fig. It looks so great and just a lil paintin* on the hair and shes damn near perfect.

DtLS 01-19-2023 04:44 AM

Looks like they're going to start giving Spider-Man the Fett tax treatment.

MeLikeJinx 01-19-2023 05:17 AM

^ Yah for real... 3.75" VC Book of Boba Fett Boba Fett was $27 at my Target! $27 for a basic 3.75" fig! My Target likes to mark stuff up though, but still! That's legit crazy.

Ooo... that's a good one... she's still kinda pricey though for such an old fig. Guess will have to keep waiting until something comes along.

The cost of diesel fuel and out of control government spending is steering our society.

"Hey, here's some new Marvel Legends reveals........................................... .................................................. .................................................. .............................also some new retro-style 3.75 happened; no photos."

No love for this line anymore? It's relegated to an afterthought? We are finally getting a Dr. Doom!

snake5289 01-19-2023 12:53 PM

Was there any before? Reception to those retro figures always seems pretty negative.
