Marvel Legends Scale Weapons & Random Items?
 
I've searched the net but not too familiar with what other stuff I could find to have for my Legends.

I always just used whatever came with my figures but when I found out Thunderbolts Crossbones re-used a gun from the GI Joe Sigma 6 Roadblock I started kicking myself for not buying all those carded Sigma 6 figures I used to see at thrift shops for like $5 a pop. But then again they were giant 8" inch figures so I can see why I passed at the time.

Any recommendations?

From searching around I found out this stuff isn't perfectly in scale but most of it works:

eBay: "1/12 scale weapon" (Not much comes up..and if so, pricey)
Ebay: Weapons Search; 6 Inch; Accessories; Lowest Price First (Most of it is meh)
McFarlane Military Packs (Too expensive on eBay)
DC Universe Classics items (Batarangs, whips, etc)
Casting Cave weapons (Prices seem ok but can add up) 6" Scale Weapons
WWE/WWF/WCW/TNA wrestling fodder items (Trash cans, ladders, chairs, Grapple gear sets)
Neca Gears Of War 7" figure weapons
Halo 6" figure weapons (happyeveryday sales on eBay has a lot for cheap)
Mattel He-Man/MOTU Classics 7" weapons
Diamond Select Marvel Figure weapons/diorama pieces
Old McFarlane 5-7" figure weapons/accessories
Star Wars Black Series 6" figure stuff
Ghostbusters Mattel 6" figure stuff

Hey Cidman911, I've found that the guns and accessories for the True Heroes Sentinel 1 line of figures (Toys R' Us brand) actually work really well for Marvel Legends figures. They are also not too expensive if you buy them new, even if just for the weapons. I discovered them quite by accident. I ran into someone with some loose accessories at a collector's expo, who mentioned to me that was where they came from...

Here's an example of what they look like...just in case...
True Heroes Sentinel 1 Action Figures 4- Pack- Steel/Shadow/Nitro/Patch - Toys R Us - Toys "R" Us

http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j1...309_140554.jpg

and how they work with Marvel Legends figures...

http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j1...309_135748.jpg

http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j1...309_135835.jpg

What's more...these are the only weapons that are scaled in a way that they make sense in Crossbone's huge hands. I was so stoked when I found these...

On the chinese Halo weapons, buyer beware. I picked one of those cheap 4-pack weapon sets a while back, and while they look nice, they didn't work with my Halo figures, and they don't really work well with ML either because they were a bit oversized. The shotgun worked okay, but the DMR was really tough to get into many of my figures hands, and the sniper rifle was ridiculously large (taller than some figures.) In addition, Jorge's large chain gun had a hand that was a part of the mold, which I had to chop off the handle with an exacto knife, leaving my figures with no real way to properly hold the weapon.

cidman911 04-22-2014 11:49 PM

^ Nice !!!

Yeah, I'll look into those next time I'm in TRU. I wanted a True Heroes Pirate ship for a Nightcrawler/Amazing X-Men set up but it hasn't gone down in price at all ($50!!!)

I usually carry a random Lego, Minimate & Marvel Universe figure in my bookbag whenever I go to stores so I can see what matches up with them scale wise...I should start doing this with a Marvel Legend too.

Seeing that Crossbones made me excited. I'm finally getting my Thunderbolts one in the mail soon (they sold out of the set when I went to Comic Con on Sunday last year...I was inconsolable)

And a friend of mine said he had a ton of old WWF fodder items he's gonna give me. Those items were so fun to play with when I was a kid.

Wish this was cheaper :-(

Some 1/12 scale arcade machines are cheaper on eBay but not by much. http://www.ebay.com/sch/bonsai_maste...1&_ipg=&_from=

cidman911 04-24-2014 12:55 AM

Finding 1:12 scale items has NOT been easy. LOL

I did see a few cool things that would work while browsing online at work today. Most dollhouse stuff seems to match up with them size wise.

Baseball bats
Red bricks
Soda cans
Beer cans
Beer mugs
Comic book (Yes a comic book for your comic figures, haha)

Casting Cave looks like a really sweet site...I might be giving them a try in the very near future! Good find!

I want to get the video poker machine, let Deadpool get fat and lazy

cidman911 04-26-2014 07:45 PM

I remembered I had one of these back when I collected Pro Shots and McFarlane sports statues. No clue where I put it so searched for another one...I'm sick. They go for too much.

Its the perfect scale for 6" figures too.

Xcaliber037 04-29-2014 03:06 PM

This is a great thread. McFarlane military figures also have great accessories. I think there was even a weapons pack back in the day but I'm not sure. I have an M4 with M203 grenade launcher with killer paint. Also a Barett M82A1. I'll take pics later.

Jmacq1 05-01-2014 05:23 AM

Yeah, the McFarlane military stuff works great for Marvel Legends. As do a few of the old Spawn accessories (especially for guys like Cable who are known for carrying big outlandish guns, but there's some good realistic stuff in the line, too).

There was an old line of Matrix figures back in the day (around the time the movies came out) that came with weapons that work well for ML, too.

Holy crap. I still have my open one of these with Shaq hanging on it and a sealed one. I had no idea they were so much now.

Yep...those weapons are fantastic. The McFarlane versions of the Matrix toys were alright, but if you're looking for the weapons, the toys that were made by N2 Toys had some neat accessories. The pistols my Black Widow is sporting here are from that line's Neo figure. That Neo also came with a couple of submachine guns, which also work great as well.

Good call on this man. I appreciate you posting this. I was able to use a pair of pistols from these toys to use with my Black Widow.

Xcaliber037 05-03-2014 01:20 PM

Here's some McFarlane weapons. They're very detailed for something so small.

http://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/...psb7i318tw.jpg

Those Matrix guns work well. The MP5Ks are sweet. These Maisto 1:12 bikes are awesome!

http://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/...psptvhwfvl.jpg

Here's the M82 from McFarlane I customized with a muzzle break.

The Batmobile!

http://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/...psohajtn08.jpg

I couldn't find a 1:12 scale 62 Corvette. So we affectionately call this 58, Luanne. Lola's big sister.

Serious Lee 05-03-2014 03:26 PM

Hey!!!

Is that corvette Maisto? I used to have a viper somewhere, but I think the brand name started with a 'D' or something. I'd search one out if I knew where to start looking

Xcaliber037 05-03-2014 03:54 PM

The vette is a Solido. You can always search 1:12 viper on eBay and see what pops up.

That's so funny that you also picked out those same MP5ks from the Matrix set for your Deadpool...that's the same exact thing that I did with my Deadpool!

No problem dude...best part is that you can often find those Matrix toys at flea markets and swap meets unopened for some ridiculously low prices, and most of them come with some weapons that work well...

Cheers! I'll look for the 'vette on payday! The hunt is back on! Lol

gopalkrishnan 05-04-2014 09:47 PM

Yeah actually. Casting Cave looks great. I would like to get them. Please let me know when you get it and from where. Thanks for sharing.

cidman911 05-05-2014 12:39 AM

My Shaq Attaq Rookie Of The Year Rim came in.

Not as good as the McFarlane Backboard but it still makes for a fun display.

cidman911 05-06-2014 11:28 PM

KcKilla 05-07-2014 07:20 AM

As far as the arcade machines go, this guy builds 1/12 scale, has good prices, AND is building real screen/sound models, check out his page: Retro Heart
