I also found a Rogue at TRU 25 which includes shipping PM me if anyone needs her, if not back to the store she goes. |
I am not sure if anyone saw this but several of the figures for the new Doctor Strange wave up for pre-order on Amazon are now on sale for $15.99 with free shipping for any order over $29. I just grabbed Enchantress and Iron Fist for the sale price, and MCU Strange and Nico for regular price, which was not a bad deal. Just going to have to hunt down the other baf parts when the line launches.

Of course, the only figure I want fro the Strange wave is the only one not discounted on Amazon (Nico).

However, yes, that Tombstone and Shocker were shown for the 4inch line, which makes no damn sense why Hasbro is calling the 4inch line Marvel Legends. |

We will almost surely get the following redos in the coming years - 2018-2019-2020 I'm guessing, depending on if they do one or two waves a year
Bishop, Angel, Beast, Banshee, Domino, Cannonball, Professor X, Storm, Gambit, Nightcrawler, Psylocke, X-23 (maybe as X-23 or as ANAD Wolverine, not sure). Pyro, Avalanche (not a technical ML redo as it was the X-Men line, but close enough) Mister Sinister, Apocalpyse, Lady Deathstrike Sabretooth, Mystique, maybe even another Magneto and possibly Omega Red. Count on the above, as long as the line continues long enough I'm going to say it's a near 100% chance. Not so sure about Rachael Grey, the newer Emma, Forge, Warpath, Spiral or Fantomex as they hold up well. Magik and Jubilee are really odd cases so I'm not sure on those. Longshot is not a core character so I'm really not sure if he'll get a redo. He was the only non-main X-Man done in the TB days, IIRC. Did I miss any that have been done before? Newer villains: I'm thinking as far as non BAF Exodus and Sebastian Shaw have the best chance. and BAF Sauron and Nimrod. Newer X-Men/non villains - that's tougher. I think we absolutely see a Madrox and Moonstar. After that I'm guessing Wolfsbane, Monet and Sunspot due to higher visibility in the films or the UXM book. I'm really hoping we get a Blink and Callisto as well, but I'm not so sure. Same with so many others like Syrin, Marrow, Trevor Fitzoy, Boomer, Emplate, Black Tom Cassidy etc etc but honestly I just don't see it happening. There's only so far Hasbro will go with tertiary characters. I would say with an exclusive con set we have a chance as getting some of the Hellfire Club. What I would give for a FA Emma Frost, a Selene, Madelyne Pryor (she was a later member I believe), Sebastian Shaw, Donald Pierce and Mastermind. I would be willing to sacrifice a finger or toe at least to make this happen! |

Didn't Hasbro indicate that they have intentions of filling out the Jim Lee Blue/Gold team sets? We already have Jean Grey, Archangel, Rogue, Iceman (in spiky form), Wolverine and will be getting confirmed Cyclops.
Beast, Bishop, Storm, Psylocke, and Gambit are left and are for sure going to get done. Almost no question about it, unless they cut the X-waves completely or stop producing Legends. THat only leaves Colossus, which is a really confusing case because we are getting a Colossus, but it's not the Jim Lee version. I honestly don't know how long it would be before getting a proper one or if he's missed his chance or what. Considering the rumor of completing that line up, a non-Gold team Colossus was a really baffling offering (despite the fact the TB one holds up extremely well.) |

Edited because I can't think anymore and my fingers substituted the wrong word. |
Starjammers would rock, but i would hope we'd get hepzibah with cho'od as the baf. ( heh heh cho'od heh heh )

well i think all those x-wave was sold out, very quickly , i know from where i bought them they did really well according to the seller, i think did to see how well the x-men sell.

I say forget Avengers, they should just focus on X-Men for 2017.

If we have to go with more heroes, I'd really like to see some more love go into "street level" characters at this point. Cardiac, Prowler, Cloak Dagger, Blade, etc... |

I mean, I get Spider-Man is their #1 character, but I just feel like 2-3 waves a year is a bit much. Think about it. 2017 is going to probably shape up like this: Spider-Man wave that's been revealed, BAF unknown (Sandman most likely) Warlock X-Men Wave GOTG 2 Cat-Person thing wave. Most likely a Spider-Man Homecoming wave, a Thor Wave and yet another Spider-man wave at the end of the year. With possibly the Wolverine wave I am beginning to lose hope in being real, since it only has popped up on the rumor-net once, months ago. 6-7 waves, and 3 of them will be Spider-Man, 4 will be movies (1 of which is a Spider-Man wave.) While I understand they want to promote their movies I just feel it's a bit unbalanced. SO the question is where to go from here? 2017 is likely already well planned out/beginning tooling production and factory work so it would be 2018 at latest. 2018 COULD shape up like this (not in order): X-Men wave ,Spider-Man wave 1, Spider-Man wave 2, Black Panther wave, Ant-Man wave, Avengers wave...and likely another Avengers wave. Just basing that on movies and production of waves history. I fully would be fine with one spider-man wave and 2 X-Men waves. Or more in fact, if they were to combine the Ant-Man wave into a second Avengers wave, or even BLack Panther into the second Avenges wave. But I really think Spider-Man is where the line gets over done. 2019 is much the same. I'm envisioning (not in order) Spider Man wave 1, Spider-Man wave 2, X-men wave 1, Avengers wave 1, Avengers wave 2, possibly mixed with Inhumans Captain Marvel wave 1 and either another Spider-Man or X-Men wave. You can do much the same with this year as with 2018. All the above doesn't take into account thoughts on a F4 wave..which I'd love to see somewhere, but not at the cost of another X-wave. My point being it's not the Avengers that's overbalanced in production. THere are many characters to pull from. And they're absolutely going to promote their movies and understandably so, so you can't really say that one wave a movie is being over done. It's Spider-Man. And I do like Spider-Man, and honestly understand why they want waves focused on him. But he's had his time in the sun with multiple waves. It's time for the X-Men, the OTHER comic pillar that kept Marvel afloat in the 80's and 90's, to get their due in Marvel Legends form. |
So I've just been dragged in to the ML6" world kicking and screaming. Mostly because the 3.75 boat has way too many holes in it lately. The X wave got me on board, now I've finished the X wave, all the Walgreens exclusives, onslaught wave, giant man, and a few random a I really like, like venom, spider carnage, and I'm now trying to build a respectable MCU avengers team. I have a few observations thoughts and ideas. First, everyone complains that hasbro doesn't complete teams, this is on purpose, if you got a perfect say, wolverine you would never need to buy another wolverine. If you put together a the perfect X team, how many odd ball X men would you buy? I like the way ML defines the waves, and sub collection. For instance I plan to be an X men compleationist, there is no way, jumping on this late in the game to be a legends compleationist, but I'm one Deadpoool away from having all the single boxed X men, another thing that really impresses me about legends is the fact that they really hold there value, even loose most old legends are worth more than retail. I feel legends collectors are far more of an opener and poser crowd " poser" not being in the negative sense, and less concerned with packaging. On the movie side I feel hasbro has rather dropped a major ball, or is planning the most genius move In marvel figure history. I refer to the lack of movie villains! It really sucks and the list is stacking up. But this gives them an opertunity to do do a whole cinematic villians wave with maybe a BAF thanos. I think it would blow most peevious waves out of the water.

Nash i agree with yah. I too like spiderman ( adult spidey not this new one ) and i would be more than fine with only one spidey wave. Id like a wave that has spme side characters and one to no flagship characters. Im sorry but im sick of caps widows thors iron men ( unless they do an updated comic silver centurion, whats ith their lack of this obe ) etc. how about a wave of citizen v tbolts, or some merc and cyborg characters ( moon knight, silver sable, solo,coldblood, dethlock micheal collins, cyber, maverick, deathshead) or villians like serpent society characters, diamondback black mamba asp princess python death adder.

I honestly don't look at my 3.75 figs the same now...and i used to LOVVVVVE them..that was my favorite line..but even the price point now doesnt make any sense compared to the 6" line. ************************************************** ******************************************** If anyone was interested... Dorksidetoys has a good deal on Captain B...and a GREAT deal on Secret Wars Captain A. http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/n...psyavkvmse.jpg |
