Re: SDCC 2014 Marvel Legends Infinity Gauntlet Exclusive Box Set
OK.
WOW!!!!!
I, personally, would have preferred another "team" themed ML box set. However this, AND, the MU set are really great choices in my opinion.
I love the Infinity theme, especially since it ties into the GotG movie nicely. (Even though it really isn't a direct tie-in).
ML class Black Bolt and Medusa are nice, Blaastar is pretty sweet , and StarLord will hopefully foreshadow more comic versions of the GotG.
However......GLADIATOR!!!!! YES!!!!!! Love the character, and love the Shiar Imperial Guard (who I know we will never see, alas). Great to get one in ML size. Love the reuse of the box from last year's Thunderbolts set, but now as the Galactus Engine?!?!? Great.
The MU set is equally inspired to me, although the one big knock is reusing the Thanos mold (boo!).
However the rest is classic!!!!! Lady Death??? AWESOME!!!!!! (and I have MS Thanos already). Star Fox and Nebula???!! Really??!!! I'm not complaining, I just never thought I would see the day that either of them got modern action figure love.
Man, I love me some Marvel galactic characters, and both these sets really speak to me. Noe I have to figure out how to get them at a reasonable price.
