… for simplicity’s sake, why don’t we just say all of these? ;) To start, of course. |

And don't EVEN get me started on my wish-list for the Hulk. He's long overdue for some Marvel Legends attention. I'm hoping we'll at least see some kind of She-Hulk, Professor Hulk in his brown Pantheon era jumpsuit, Tyrannus, the Ringmaster, the Absorbing Man, classic Abomination and the Leader in his orange-and-black suit with the "Jiffy Pop" giant brain look. I'm also sure we'll see Armani suit Doc Ock within the next few years, especially since Hasbro has oddly been making a lot of figures in jackets, business suits and lab coats lately. And as I said, I'm worried about the lack of ab crunches and alternate heads with recent reveals. I get that Hasbro is trying to keep the prices down, but the lack of accessories is really hurting the new figure reveals for me. Quote:

Good lord ya’ll a buncha novel writing mofos. :p

Hasbro has a warehouse sale on Pulse. It's 30% off select items. I got the Khonshu wave for a far more reasonable price!

Got the Khonshu wave with the warehouse sale. Happy to pay $16 a fig instead of full retail for that wave.

Apparently, Entertainment Earth is putting the net Spider-Man wave up this week, so I expect Hasbro Pulse and other sites to follow suite. I'm still wondering what the BAF will be. |

The BAF dilemma is constantly happening to me too. This Spider-Man wave isn't ideal for my shelf. I'm sure many people like all the figures, but I only want 2 or 3 of them. I'm hoping the BAF is something I can live without. Frankly, I just want Elektra and maybe Tarantula. If the BAF is something I'd like to have, I might throw in pre-orders in for The Rose, and both Bens, but that's probably all. I'm not digging that new Spider-Woman or Miles costume.

Sorry to double post, but literally right after my last post, I saw on ToyNewsI that the Spider-Man wave will be on the retro card back and there will be NO BAF. This really makes me feel better about skipping figures.
Also, the Legends team is saying to expect weekly pre-orders from now until the end of April. Not every pre-order will be a full wave, they may just be singular items for the Avengers 60th Anniversary program. |
I want Rose and Tarantula, but I just don't know if I want them for $25. Maybe Amazon will lower the preorder price during the preorder period.
The rest are butt ass ugly looking figures on top of having little to no accessories. I wouldn't even pay $10 for them, especially whatever the hell they did to Miles. |

Fantastic that it’s a retro wave. Totally skippable. My Spider-Man related wants are very few now, so everytime a new wave is reveal I’m both hoping for and dreading a Stegron BAF reveal. Mainly because I’d love to get Stegron, but also would not love buying a bunch of figures I don’t want.
Speaking of Spider-Man related, i know he was on the big leaked/rumored list,,but how in the hell do we not have Spot yet? Depending on how creative they wanted to get he could be the simplest of repaints, or a rather complex deluxe figure. |

I do like some of the new stuff that I am seeing from the ML team. The Avengers stuff is great, IMO. But, I wish they would have gone a different direction with the Spider-verse. Do not get me wrong, I love me some Spiderman, but kind of dissatisfied with having a Spiderman themes, which seems often. Fantastic Four would have been great to me like some have mentioned, for example Crystal, FF She-Hulk, or a BAF Lockjaw would have wet my whistle. But, it there is one Spiderman themed figure I wish they would revisit and the is the Sandman. The latest figure of him I feel is lacking some size, and should be a little beefed up, also would not mind a Spider-Hulk.

What disappoints me most about this new Spider-Man wave is, aside from the fact most of the new figures are from the awful current Spider-Man comics, that it's not even a full Retro wave. Only Tarantula and Rose have the Toy Biz animated series box art. The new packaging for figures like Chasm look as generic as the current comics. I would've rather have seen this be just a plain Marvel Legends wave without the plastic packaging.
I also don't like that this is another year of current Spider-Man comics figures and movie-based figures. We're getting two movie waves this year with Into the Spider-Verse and the rumored No Way Home figures, but all of the Retro/classic Spider-Man figures are sorely lacking some much needed A-listers. Making Lizard and Kraven both Wal-Mart exclusives was a HUGE mistake, considering having one or both of these than the two Ben Reilly based figures would've raised my excitement, and drained my wallet, much faster. Making Doc Ock a repaint in a Amazon exclusive two-pack with Silk didn't help either, as I couldn't find/buy it and now it's $90+ on Amazon. If we get another Retro wave, I'm hoping for A-list villains like Chameleon, Vulture, Doc Ock (green-and-orange suit or white Armani suit with the bendable wire tentacles) and suit-and-tie Tombstone, civilian characters like Aunt May Parker or Mary Jane Watson (and no, giving Gwen Stacy an M.J. head isn't the same), and other Spider-Man variants (battle ravaged, Octo-Spidey, "Spider-Man Unlimited" 1999 suit, etc.). Heck, I'd even take a Slingers boxed set. Also, I agree with AFU, we need a new Sandman. I LOVE the Retro one, but having Retro Electro being more buff and bigger than Sandman seems off. I wouldn't mind an updated classic Sandman or even a green-and-yellow suit from when he was in the Wild Pack, and I know a lot of folks want the green armored suit look. A new figure of Spider-Hulk would be cool, but then again, so would more Hulk based Marvel Legends figures, but that's another rant altogether. |

But that doesn't change the fact that this is a well executed figure. Even the removable face covering is contoured well. It's far from "butt ass ugly". |
