I’m already head to toe sheeted in lovely Gold Bond smellin’ like a spicy old man up in dis piece awaiting his answer.

On topic, my Ursa Major figs have trickled in this week, along with She-Hulk. I dig ‘em. Mostly. The only one I'm not sure I'll keep is Hologram IM. Don’t get me wrong, he’s an excellent figure. I just don’t see where he really fits in my collection. Ultron is damn-near articulated comic perfection, and Stealth IM might be the coolest straight-up repaint I’ve ever seen.

They're neat for small children and as novelties, but from the start I was of the opinion that the price point should only be $9.99 per. I won't bash the line too terribly because Super7/ReAction has proven there's a market for 5POA nostalgia of all sorts.

Your point about the packaging is spot on. I'm not generally swayed by packaging, it's so much refuse in my eyes to be tossed and recycled (hopefully). That said, many Legends fans seem to love the retro cards. To each their own, I guess, but at least the ML fans are getting their money's worth for their purchase.

I always liked this photo as a really well executed bit of layered meta!
