My two cents (which are two cents more than my opinions are actually worth):

- Other than Old Man Loki, the M.C.U. stuff is a pass for me. Howard the Duck looks cool, but none of those toys are must-buys for me. That said, I'm glad for those who collect them. With "Loki" getting more Disney+ wave figures, I hope "WandaVision" gets a revisit. I still want Agatha Harkness, Monica Rambeau and the main characters in their Halloween costumes.
- Did we really need a Tesseract? I don't remember seeing a lot of posts from collectors who were asking for that.
- Razorback and the Human Fly are nice for collectors, but I'm not interested. At all.
- I've never been much of a Sentry fan, but the figure looks great. I'm not buying him though.
- I'm not much of a symbiote guy, so Riot and Agony are a pass, even though they look good.
- As someone who is a huge Spider-Man fan, how did they get the chest emblem wrong for the Spidey from his "Amazing Friends" three-pack? And no Peter Parker alternate head? Ugh. Iceman looks great, though.
- White Tiger's pretty cool and Black Panther was very impressive, but I'm not really a fan of either character.
- The only "must-buys" for me are Retro Beast and Retro Scorpion. Anyone know when those go up for pre-order on Amazon? I imagine they'll sell out quickly.
- With the Terrax reveal, I hope Hasbro plans to do more Retro Fantastic Four figures later on.
- Ghost Rider gets a 50 years teaser. The Hulk and Thor get nada for their 60th anniversaries THIS year. Oy.

This is the most underwhelming set of reveals in recent memory and the ones I DO like are exclusives that will sell out quickly. And seriously, how do you get "Amazing Friends" Spider-Man's spider wrong?!? Japanese Spider-Man had the right emblem. Heck, WEB-MAN had the correct emblem!

After the underwhelming selection of characters this year, the "Marvel Legends" figures for 2023 need to work REALLY hard to win my money back, and even then, they have to have the figures sculpted, painted and designed correctly.

P.S. Does anyone know why the Wal-Mart exclusive animated Spider-Man is completely gone? Was he a limited release? I went to the page the link for the figure was at and it's completely gone.
