Might be stretch goal...though I think that's too high in the prospective quota to be realized.

In any case, I don't mind it. The original/classic Kirby-Byrne/Starlin era never had them, to be sure. But since the mid 2000s Galactus' armor was never uniformly consistent from artist to artist...Adi Granov drew his G with the "power circle." Sideshow's statue has one, and I think the heroclix Galactus as well. Hasbro's own MU Galactus has the two circles. I think they're paying homage to the older MU Galactus helmet design with the two circles (I hated that overall helmet though, but that's besides the point), which goes along with the rest of the modern Galactus look they're going for.

Welcome to Marvel Legends collecting and the Ark! It's nice to meet someone new that's invested in Marvel's cosmic tapestry. All the figs you mention are great and there are plenty we (the thread has a couple of cosmic heads) can suggest to help your collection along. Let me know how your search for Terrax goes; I've a spare that I might be willing to trade, if you have something that interests me.

We'll see what happens on Monday with Galan, no doubt, but the thread has speculated that there might be some activity this "Fan First Thursday" on HasbroPulse. Fingers crossed.

Hey thanks man! Lol it's good that your first Wiki read was positive...some people get turned off, as admittedly articles can leave a lot to be desired. I used to be deep into X-Men in the 90s...stopped reading when the Onslaught fiasco finished. Took a long hiatus from comics but came back when Annihilation first came out. Told the comic shop guy I wanted something new with Thanos in it and he recommended it to me. But Galactus stole the show for me, ever since then I started following Marvel Cosmic almost exclusively.

I'm definitely going to try to tune in "live" (even though it's taped) to the Legends stream on Thurs. I'm 100% convinced they are going to make some sort of reveal beyond Surfer (if and when the quota for Nova is close by Thurs) and basically pull out all the surprises they've held in reserve. I'd be very surprised if they didn't...I believe Eternals will be presented as well, so it will be a nice cosmic themed presentation with Galactus finishing it up.

I'm mainly a hardcore Transformers collector (can't wait to have both Haslab planet eaters displayed), but might reach out at some point to see about your extra Terrax!

Any chance for a Tyrant stretch goal lol
