I'd say wait til you have her in hand, sometimes even other's in hand pics don't capture the figure

I'd have been happy with gold paint but I don't hate the painted on reflection at least based on that pic

What is it with you and the incessant name calling? It's juvenile and totally uncalled for. People have a right to not like something you may. I hate cel shading and anything that approaches it. A vac metal face plate would have been fantastic.

Vac metal cracks and peels over time. I'm good without it.

I ordered the Rogue two pack on day one and mine still has not shipped or anything. It's in-stock and I can have it by Sunday, but because I ordered other things that already shipped at the same time I can't cancel the original order. Anyone else who ordered day one get any update on the order?

Mine was shipped out during the night to arrive today.

I know how you feel though. Yesterday my preorder was still saying it would ship on Thursday while their listing yesterday said if I had ordered it within the next 7 hours it would arrive overnight before 8am. I don't get it.

What is with you needing to police everyone else? Clearly you haven't noticed that Ive pretty much ignored you since the last time I had to put you in your place. Clearly I hit a nerve. If the beard trimmer fits, use it.

Jesus christ people, I'm supposed to be the one who acts like the childish one around here. Stop stealing my schtick!!!!

Not my fault Appalachia got a bee in his bonnet

Destiny has come home/A Rogue in the House:

https://i.imgur.com/lVjc905.jpg

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo where do I begin? I mean, I guess the positive. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants is now complete!!!!! YES!!!!! Come on Hasbro, give us Leland and Banshee!!!

Now for the unfortunate negatives (suck it Wally!!). First off, this pack has NO business being $50. I should not have bought it. In fact, after opening it I wish I hadn't. The figures suck ass. The both have the exact same hands and fists, which is complete bullshit. Not to mention they are the same open hands they have been giving female figures for like 8 years now. Where are the newer hands they have done recently? Why did they not at least give one of them the new ones? Destiny's cape can not be removed, so there is no way to lift her upper arms up much. I also don't get why they couldn't be bothered to give her an unmasked head.

For Rogue, she has no body articulation at all. There's a waist swivel, some side by side motion, but not much. What the fuck was Hasbro thinking with this? This is so god damn dumb!! Hell, she barely even has neck articulation because they used the god damn barbell peg. Additionally, she only has one head and the paint job is hideous. My wife asked me if that was supposed to be Rogue from the future timeline and when I told her that was teen Rogue, she was shocked.

For $50, we deserved better. This is excusable and if you are on the fence about this pack, do NOT waste your money until it drops in price. I am half tempted to just return it and buy it again later when it goes on sale.

For what it's worth, despite being a teen in her early appearances, she was always drawn a bit older than that should have been. At least in my appearances. Especially in her first couple of appearances she looked middle age to me.

This is what she looked like in Secret Wars as well. That is the only reason I ordered this set. I don't really want the Destiny figure at all.

I agree completely with this sentiment. She was illustrated as almost homely in her first appearances, when she still was evil. As I remember it, Paul Smith was the first artist to soften her looks giving her a more youthful and innocent appearance as she joined the X-Men.

Yes, but this figure's face still looks like she is Destiny's age. It could be the make-up they've used though as they kind of over did it.

I just wish they had given her an alternate head with the longer hair she had in later issues while wearing that outfit. Or at least, messier hair.

I'm consistent, if nothing else...

My Target Exclusive Let There Be Carnage Venom just shipped coming Tuesday

The sole Legends acquisition from my birthday on Monday, yes? I was sorely tempted when he went up on Pulse but between tax and shipping he was almost $50 so I passed but then earlier in September he was up on Amazon for $36 prime so I jumped. I'm very happy to finally have Death's Head join my Legends collection.

Man he looks amazing. And happy belated birthday yes? :)

Amazon is having a Prime day October 7th and 8th so keep an eye out for Legends stuff being on sale

Finally arrived, I've definitely got buyer's remorse paying full price.

I gave Destiny Classified Series Movie Scarlett's crossbow and What If Nebula's trigger hand, the blues don't match, but it's close enough. I'm probably going to brighten Rogue's streak so it's actually white and not gray.

The rest of the Strange Tales arrived (Bloodstorm came in last week)

Doctor/Brother Voodoo is a decent update to the original release, his staff is really gummy so probably won't be using it, if you're happy with the previous figure you can definitely skip this one. I swapped the armbands from the original.

Lilith was a character I was really looking forward to. This release misses the mark in places. The biggest being they should have used a bigger (Moonstone or Power Princess) body. I repainted her face to match the comics a bit more

Daimon Hellstrom, not a lot to talk about, very basic figure, could have used some fire effects

Dracula turned out really cool. I wasn't expecting to like the figure as much as I do
https://i.ibb.co/yfKG6pP/20241006-140911.jpg

Moon Knight.... yay. The smaller cape does make fitting him on the shelf easier. The gold accents really are eye-catching

Blackheart is a bit disappointing tbh, the tail doesn't bend a lot. It throws off the balance, and the legs are not real stable, so he doesn't stand on his own well. Beware the spikes while you're assembling him

The paint apps on Lilith are sloppy as fuck too. That is not a $25 toy.

I saw that deal, but their website would not let me order her nor did they have anything else for me to buy.

Ghost Rider doesn't even come up on their site when I type him in. It gives me only a selected number of Marvel Legends. hell, Phoenix doesn't show up in the search either. I only learned of her through a link on Twitter.

However, it said the price was online only, but I couldn't order it online. It said the store by me had it, but they did not. When the lady checked the telxon, it said no stores within a 50 mile radius had any.

Now I'm not sure where you are getting $17 from as that deal would only take $5 off the figure, not $8.

looks like there was a save 20 dollars off 75 dollar purchase target offer

Yes, but there's only two figures there, so I am confused on how anyone got that activated.
