I hope 2099 is a sign of more retro Spider-Man releases, those were my favorite releases from last year. By the same token, I’d actually prefer it if Sandman wasn’t in the upcoming Spider-Man wave, so that they can save him for a deluxe release like Kingpin. Sandy lends himself to lots of accessories. Of U.S. Agent, my impression would be that it seems like the WCA is a team they’re working to finish, so he’ll probably be coming sooner or later.

Agreed on Sandman. I just said I hope he was in Wave 2 due to the listing. But I'd prefer him on the Retro card. Admit it - seeing Sandman on the Toy Biz packaging of the 90s "Spider-Man" animated series, the very show he was forbidden from showing up on, would be too perfect. I do hope we get the classic U.S. Agent, he's been a character I want Hasbro to make an updated figure of for years. But I really, really, REALLY hope he isn't a Walgreens exclusive. If he is, I doubt I'll ever find him, especially now.

I mean of course I'd love to be getting Shadowcat and Banshee at some point soon here, but if it's not a huge difference if it's 8 or 14 months, which is probably when this wave and the first X-Men wave for 2022 will drop.

But seriously. They need to be made by no later than next year and really should try to squeeze them in this year somehow.

I'm with you, Captain Nash, I'd also love to see Shadowcat and Banshee. It'd be nice to see them get new Marvel Legends figures. I do hope we'll see more classic X-Men figures - and more classic figures, period - this year.

Also, is anyone else wondering if Marvel Legends have any plans to do something with Captain America? I know we got that Marvel Comics 80th anniversary figure in 2019, but this year is Cap's 80th anniversary and it'd be a shame not to see any Legends figures for our Star-Spangled Avenger this year.
