Tempted but passing. Not a huge mojo fan, and while I’d definitely get Longshot figure on it’s own, at this price I’m content with the Toybiz one
And yeah,definitely a three pack |

Hahahaha "4" pack. That is hilarious. I am quite glad I chose to limit what I collect within Legends so I could easily avoid the temptation for that set. Firelord and animated War Machine, not so much.

Yeah, as my secondary line, the price was a bit hard to swallow, but for me, Mojo and Longshot are musts. I'll have to figure out what to do with Dazzler and the blind box style Wolverine, though. I justified it by reminding myself that I paid nearly that for Stryfe and the Apocalypse BAF not long ago.

I already have both Dazzler figures I ever need and I don't need a HabsboKo POP! Wolverine.
So if Dazzler and Longshot are $25 each and the Wolverine is $2 (cause that is what it looks like it is worth to me), that means that Mojo is an $80 figure? I'm not even sure if this is a better figure than the ToyBiz one. I was expecting around $100 for the set, but this is kind of ridiculous. If they had put in Spiral instead of Dazzler, I would have been all over it and even with the price. As it is, I don't know if the cost is worth it for a small upgrade to the Toybiz figures I already have. In my opinion, Longshot was one of the very best Toybiz Legends. |

It likely breaks down to $70 for Mojo, a large and highly articulated, completely unique sculpt, $25 each for Dazzler, and Longshot, and $10 for Wolverine, which is in line with the sold-separately Grogu. I honestly wasn’t surprised or all that bothered by the price.

I hadn't really noticed and I hope it isn't a case of misleading sculpt but it looks like there's articulation on every joint of Mojo's spider legs. If so I can definitely appreciate that and see how that helps justify the cost on this set. Yup I buckled and decided to make this set my personal christmas present given the release date. Though it was actually Dazzler that pushed me over the edge. She was the one I was least interested in character-wise but I just really love her execution here. Her and Longshot also for some reason remind of this old animated movie Rock and Rule.

I just hope said joints are tight enough to collectively support the weight of the figure. |

I'm not certain that it's every joint, but they did say that "it's one of the most articulated figures we've ever done if you count the legs" and "these rotate and pivot at three points on each leg", so it sounds like it to me.

Well I'll be damned, you're right. I really oughta look more closely at these things before just pulling the trigger, eh?

There also appears to be a switch of some sort on Mojo's base. Possibly some lighting feature, but I'm uncertain as to why it would be there.
Many aspects of figure designs are difficult to discern from these renders, but I'd be quite surprised if the legs featured more than one point of articulation each. Edit: whoops, I see the leg articulation was quoted and not speculation. Well, that's good and lends to the riser being added as a measure to prevent the joints in the tiny legs from getting loose due to supporting the oversized and, presumably, hefty figure.

How do you do this? I'm curious how close it is to selling out.

Yeah, this new reality is setting in pretty quickly. Ostensibly, these three figures cost $20 less than have some low end waves that retailed at $154. Let that sink in.

Has anyone in the Chicago area seen the Love & Thunder Legends in the wild?

Speaking of which, thanks to Ariellagunas, that nightmare of FINALLY over!! Although I must say, the figures in this set are really really weird. Like Rictor has pinless lower legs, but not upper legs while Domino has pinless arms, yet her legs are not pinless. That just makes no sense to me. Rictor's sculpt is cool despite looking a bit too much like Fabio from the Iron Sword Nintendo cover. It's nice to finally have a Cannoball with legs. I'm just trying to decide which body I prefer. The jacket on the new one has better detailing while the white shirt on the older one matches the white of the paints better.
