Glad I didn't go deep into the VHS line.

...though that Magneto looks a little wonky in the arms.

I don't know why they didn't just do the 97 line instead of the vhs. Not many wanted the vhs and were wanting what the 97 line is going to give us.

I'm guessing the Hasbro Pulse VHS line was just for diehard collectors who like fancy packaging and cell shaded designs, whereas the 97 line is going to help promote the new upcoming animated series on Disney+

Now can you imagine if they had made the 97 line a Hasbro Pulse exclusive??? lol

Some photos of more upcoming Marvel Legends figures including Power Princess (of the Squadron Supreme), Justice (of New Warriors and the Avengers), a new version of classic Vision (with proper colored upper thighs and what appears to be new head sculpt) and Crystar.

There will also be MCU Infinity Saga movie figures including Iron Man Mark II, Black Window (from Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and Bruce Banner (from Infinity War).

They wanted to triple-dip (or is it quadruple?) Jim Lee's most popular designs in a 6-year period.

It's good that the 97 line (with no cell shading or fancy packaging) is going to be a mass retail line, particularly for those who weren't able to get either of the previous Rogue or Magneto figures or who just want a basic tiger-stripe Wolverine.

I wouldn't doubt it if they re-release and retool harder to get figures like Jubilee, Cyclops or Jean Grey (who was only available in that 3-pack) down the road as well. Maybe even a new Beast with a different head?

Mark II Iron Man needs chrome plating. The grey plastic looks really bad. Bishop looks good, I need one for my X-Men collection. Thr other X-Men look good, but I won't be upgrading them. Cool for those who didn't pick up the previous figures though.

Just want that Vision. Missed out on the retro carded, metallic one.

Yea I can definitely see Jim lee Cyclops getting a new release real soon. Most likely in a X-Men 97 wave 2. it's been too long since the last release.

Power Princess, and the whole Squadron Supreme, are not characters I am familiar with but looks great.

The Infinity Saga, I am all in for love the sculpt of Banners head and I need a MCU Black Widow in classic costume still.
