Most of what I got was at MSRP that they were listed for or slightly below. The only one that I overpaid on was the Love Triangle 3-pack.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Hasbro Pulse's Fan First Monday livestream released images of some upcoming Marvel Legends figures.

The next build-a-figure wave will be Controller. The wave will include Iron Man (Model 70 Armor, no build-a-figure piece), Madame Hydra, Speedball, Blue Marvel, Quake (with interchangeable Maria Hill head), classic US Agent and Thor (based on Donny Cates art).

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Hasbro also released pics of the Hasbro Pulse online exclusive animated Storm, Future Foundation Spider-Man and a retooled Rhino which will be on Retro packaging, and a build-a-figure Disney+ animated Ultron (no single figures from the wave shown, but they mentioned Hawkeye and Kate Bishop from the Disney+ Hawkeye series will be part of the wave).

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I'd definitely recommend the Retro Storm (White or Black) over that one. It's still available in stores or on the interwebs.

The animated cell shading looks goofy AF on the new one, and the figure will probably be pricier.


Infinity Ultron looks great, but it's a BAF unfortunately.


The rest of the figures... Daisy Johnson, Speedball, Spider-man repaint, another Iron Man? Meh.

Nice. Beast is fantastic. I was tempted to get that 3-pack for the Wolverine, but I went for the Retro 80s Wolverine instead. That's the costume I want to see in a live action film someday!

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I would have loved that retro Storm face on the 80s Punk version man. I'm tempted to risk buying it case there's a fully bald head under all that hair for a swap, lol.

Any how, Rhino is the highlight for me, as well as Maria Hill. I would have been stoked over Madame Hydra, but the KB body is a major let down. Buuuut.....the Controller. He's classic, I need him, end of story. If anyone here isn't vibing on the Controller BAF, hit me up, because I'd happily buy him from you!

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

The animated line seems to have peaked with Wolverine. I like the retro Storm figure, but some of its finer details work against the animated look. I think the Jubilee wave Storm would of been a better base(though it would still need some shoulder pads).

Managed to secure one for in-store pick-up. Although I wonder how long until they tell me that the preorder is cancelled.

Yeah In-store pick up was still available, but I have to say this was the first time I've seen a pre-order get so quickly snatched up, I actually watched this figure get put up on the site, and it was available for home delivery but while I went to the cart, the cart crashed and I had to refresh and boom it was not available anymore, it was there for like 2 minutes.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I didn’t manage to get the rhino off GameStop. It sold out so fast but Amazon.ca has him up for preorder too for anyone who couldn’t get him. Not sure how good Amazon is with preorders though.
