I just think the pins were set up here but Hasbro threw a gutter ball. It's ok, though, stuff like Lizard and Apocalypse picked up the spare.

But it wasn't just that, I don't think stuff like the Deadpool Monopoly set went over with the crowd, either. And that might be our fault for expecting nothing but "figures, figures, figures!", but I also think Hasbro used that stuff to fill out time on the panel because they really didn't have much to show for Marvel Legends, and most of the new reveals already showed up in the cases over the weekend. I really think if they worked on not tipping their hand so much, people might have looked at this panel a lot more favorably.

Ill be getting deadopoloy.
