For weapons and stuff you kinda have to get them from where ever you can. I try to hit a lot of old Buffy figures since a lot of them came with a bunch of accessories, but some can get quite pricey. But some casters out there do decent prices. You just have to hunt around. Guns a lot of the time you can pull from a lot of generic military toys.

You can also one of any number of sites that do casting of 1/12 scale parts, such as Casting Cave, although you might have to paint some of them yourself if you're looking for things in colors other than grey, white or black.

I've found that when it comes to missing pieces or accessories, don't be afraid to think outside of the box, and use accessories from other figures, or make your own. I've used weapons and gear from various figure lines like Spawn, TMNT, Star Wars etc that I no longer have with my Marvel Legends, some with pretty satisfying results. Good luck!

Huh. Thanks guys! I'll try these suggestions out, maybe I can create a staff for Gambit at some point.

3.Cap.A
4.Hulk
5.Iron man mk 43

1 being most rare

I've personally had more difficulty finding a Cap over anyone else from the wave (which I still haven't completed). I've seen plenty of Batroc, Spider-Woman and Hellcat. Iron-Man is, as always, extremely abundant and easy to find. When the wave first came out, I saw a lot of Hulks, then they slowly started disappearing. My Wal-Mart recently restocked with that wave with what feels like dozens of cases of them but even still, there's only a lone Captain America there and about 10 of everybody else. During my toy hunts over the past few months I think I've only ever seen 3 Caps.
