I am keeping my ear to the ground too. I mean, who wouldn't at this point? I'm just not going to worry in the immediate future. I will worry later in the year or 2023. Right now, I have more important matters to worry about personally than figures.

If and when the time comes that the line ends abruptly, I would like to add the Jim Lee versions of Colossus, Cyclops (with an optic blast this time, please), Jean Grey (with better head sculpts, please) and Jubilee, classic versions of Magneto (sold separately, please), Mystique (that's not an exclusive), White Queen (that's sold separately), Avalanche, Blob, and Pyro (with brighter suit colors), two Wolverines (classic brown-and-tan and classic tiger-stripe), any version of Banshee (green-and-yellow uniform, blue-and-yellow uniform and/or Generation X uniform), any of the Outback X-Men (especially Longshot, Rogue, and black-and-yellow uniform Storm), any of Generation X (I'd at least take Jubilee, M, Chamber and Skin), George Perez versions of blue furry Beast and Safari Jacket Wonder Man, John Romita Sr. versions of Spider-Man, first appearance Mary Jane Watson and Doctor Octopus (a la "The Death of Captain Stacy" with the long-requested bendable wire tentacles - and not an exclusive this time, please), lab coat Bruce Banner, at least four Hulks (McFarlane grey Hulk, classic green savage Hulk with better hair, green Hulk with purple trunks and a Kirby-esque head sculpt, and Professor Hulk in his brown jumpsuit), Ringmaster, Tyrannus, Mole Man, Wizard, Trapster, orange-and-black suit Leader, two She-Hulks (Fantastic Four suit and purple and white '80s suit, respectively), neo-classic Iron Man, classic red costume Daredevil, Ditko versions of Chameleon and Sandman (on a bigger body mold), purple-and-blue suit Boomerang, classic Black Cat, classic versions of Spidey rogues like Vulture, Mysterio (with a Quentin Beck alternate head), Tarantula, the Rose, Carrion, Hydro-Man (with human arms this time), Hobgoblin (based on John Romita Jr's art with alternate heads), Venom, Carnage, Stunner and Kaine, white Armani suit Doc Ock with bendy wire tentacles, classic Falcon, classic red-and-black costume Wasp, black-and-red West Coast uniform Wonder Man, two Hawkeyes (classic uniform and early '90s West Coast uniform), a classic "scaly chainmail" Captain America with an alternate smiling head based on John Byrne's art and a shield without holes in it, classic Thor (that's easy to find this time, please), green-and-yellow uniform Loki with a yellow cape (bonus points if they use an alternate Classic Loki head from his appearance on Disney Plus' "Loki" series), classic Vision, Crystal, bomber jacket Firestar, Spiral, the U-Foes, classic Abomination, any of the 'X2' era looks for the X-Men characters (Wolverine, Storm, Jean Grey, cyclops, Magneto, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Deathstrike, Iceman, etc.) -- okay, I swear I'll stop it here, but you get the idea. I have a LOT of gaps in my collection I'd love to fill sooner than later. And since prices are still going up, sooner would be VERY much appreciated, please, Hasbro.

For what it's worth, since I brought up Target in the first place, I don't really think the line is in any danger of being cancelled anytime soon, just that the situation with Target at the moment is a great example of how something like Legends can be easily here today but gone tomorrow, and therefore not something I take for granted.

But even if Target is out, you can still find Legends at Walmart, Amazon, Gamestop, various online retailers, and even Pulse itself. So for fans the hunt isn't over yet.

Also for what it's worth, I think Classified is doing great, and I trust the line will be around for years to come.
