Oh gawd... I feel like that Matt Damon/Saving Private Ryan old man morphing .gif. Also kinda crazy to think you sometimes need to wait a decade to get a figure upgrade... even though I guess this is a different version of Hyperion.

Time goes by and it definitely hits ya. Less than three years til I hit the 20 year mark with legends, barring a random Thor I bought in 2003. I know I’m guilty of harping on thr things I still want, but taking a look back at how far the lines come and characters we’ve gotten and l find it pretty amazing.

When I started collecting the line seriously, thinking about what I hoped to see, and the point where ToyBiz left off and even where Hasbro left off before the ROML, I don’t think there’s more than a handful of characters or looks that was too high up on my list that haven’t gotten a figure or redo. Still waiting for a Hasbro comic Mandarin though, one the last really bad ToyBiz figures to need redo or new outfit
