The Legends team has been doing a lot of interviews for NYCC with Boog, Unparalleled Universe and a few other toy collecting channels.

Most relevant bits:

- There are still more unrevealed figures left for the year and there will be more Marvel Mondays.

- They admitted the product flow this year has been crazy because of the COVID situation (I'm guessing the movie delays meant a lot of stuff got pushed forward), but they said they know most people have budgets and so they generally try to pace fans throughout the year rather than releasing everything at once.

- Galactus, the Blackbird and Ghost Rider's Hell Charger car were some of the other potential ideas, and Dwight says he plans to resubmit Galactus when for the next Marvel HasLab project. They also did measurements for what a correctly scaled Blackbird would be, and said it'd be close to 7 feet (he compared it to the old U.S.S. Flagg toy from GI Joe) and thus is kind of unlikely due to how expensive it'd be.

- They still plan to hold off on releasing any products for the upcoming MCU films until they're actually ready to release. They don't anticipate another awkward Black Widow situation where the toys are on shelves months before the movie is out.

- They reconfirmed yes they're making figures for WandaVision and The Falcon & Winter Soldier, and should be ready around the time the shows are out.

- The first classic female character with double jointed pinless elbows should be coming sometime next year.

- There's an additional figure they wanted to tease during the PulseCon stream after Firestar that they'll be revealing later this year.

- Ryan says more Retro stuff is coming in a big way. He talked about future ideas he has for the line and mentioned both the Iron Man animated series toyline (which Dan has hinted at before; it seems very likely it's coming) and one inspired by the purple "Evil Mutants" packaging ToyBiz used to do for the X-Men villains.

- When it was brought up that the G.I. Joe: Classified and Power Rangers: Lightning Collection figures sometimes have more accessories and unique articulation and sculpting than Legends, Dwight said that's because those teams are able to work with a higher budget due to not having to pay royalties to Disney.

- They pretty much confirmed there are plans to repaint the Gamerverse Joe Fixit body with a new comic-based head down the line. It was also mentioned they'll likely use that body for other characters of a similar size (so probably Mister Hyde at some point).

- When discussing the all-new sculpt for Kang, they confirmed there are some upcoming new villains that haven't been revealed yet that'll also get new bodies.

- The House of X wave is 100 percent based on the Hickman run and won't be including X-Men characters from other eras/runs. The previously announced figures in that wave will also have some accessories that weren't revealed at PulseCon.

- They were asked about the possibility of some Sam Raimi Spider-Man figures. They said they're interested but due to a lot of contractual stuff and how much time has passed, it'll be difficult. However, they pointed out the same thing was also true of the recent X-Men movie figures, so fans should remain hopeful.

- Dwight said it's likely they'll do more Hellfire Club members in the future, especially now that they have the Victorian male body. He specifically mentioned Mastermind and Harry Leland, though the latter would obviously need a new sculpt.

- They were each asked which new, never-been-done characters they'd like to see in Legends in the coming years. Dan said Blue Marvel, Miss America Chavez and Amadeus Cho, Ryan said Generation X (he specifically mentioned Mondo and Chamber) and the New X-Men kids like Surge, and Dwight said he wants Bonecrusher and more Reavers.
