If they're like the knockoff of the build-a-figure Jubilee (which was pretty much indistinguishable from the original other than slight color variations), I would agree. The good thing is that these sellers offer buyer protection in the form of refunds and returns if you're not satisfied.

In this YouTuber's review, the Storm seems to be very good quality although you may need to swap out the arms and forearms.

This video of the original vs. bootleg classic Spidey seems to suggest that the bootleg is actually an improvement.

Although his comparison of the black costume Spidey isn't as good.

It looks like the cell-shaded Spidey isn't as good either.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Yeah the KO/bootleg ML market has really gotten strong in the last few years.



I really like some of those crazy Juggernaut bootlegs where they have combined Juggernaut with other Marvel characters. Especially the Colossus-naut. I have the official Hasbro MU version from years ago, but a ML sized one would be nice.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Need some opinions, got the entire Infinity Saga, but some transformers also came out. I have to return some of the infinity figures.

What do you guys see selling out first? I plan to keep Bruce, Black Widow, and Thor. Not sure if they others will be hard to find a couple months down the line or not.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

probably only bruce and black widow. the rest of the wave is repaints and retools of figures that came out like 10 years ago that people already own. my other opinion is that this wave doesnt do that well and none of these become hard to get. thats what im leaning more toward to be honest..

Yeah even with some new tooling these are basically rehashes of 10 year old figures/designs that a lot of people already picked up.



So I don't imagine they will be a) hard to get, and b) sell out. Unless Hasbro made their course correction already and reduced their production runs by up to 1/3 (as was rumoured).

I like the Black Widow but can't get over the lower half they used. I hate those non functional holsters. Enough so that I'm passing on her even though I really like the repainted heads.
