It's the best of times and the worst of times, because this much product in a short amount of time is a major hit to the finances, and if you're not preordering stuff, you're taking a gamble about what you can get and when (and yeah, I know, that's more on the shoulders of the collector in question, but it's still a factor).

I mean, I absolutely LOVE the product we're getting, but I'd also like some breathing room between releases. When it comes to confirmed product for 2018, we have nine waves (Black Panther, Spider-Man 1 & 2, Infinity War 1 & 2, Deadpool 1 & 2, X-Men, and Venom), three Ultimate Riders releases, the entire Marvel Studios 10th Anniversary line, and around a half-dozen store exclusive multi-packs, and that's not including the SDCC exclusives.

Even if you're not a completionist, there's a lot to get right now, and it's a little crazy.

(NOTE: I know the Black Panther wave and the first Spider-Man wave were starting to show up as early as late 2017, but the 'official' releases place them as 2018 product, so I listed them that way)

Agreed on both counts, but it gives me a sigh of relief that there's no SDCC exclusive Legends that I want.
