IMO for Legends somewhere around 2012/2013-ish is when they started to become "good enough" visually.

In my case, it was because literally the only other Marvel figures produced up to that point were the Toybiz lines from the 90's (barring even more rudimentary lines like Secret Wars and whatever Mego did, because they were before my time). I mean, hold up Spidey from the pre-legends "Classics" line next to one from TAS and there's your answer. At the time, they were the best there ever was. I wouldn't want them for free now, but I can only say they're ugly or whatever because I have the benefit of hindsight.
