General Marvel Legends

Yeah, I think to really make it work you'd need a few new ones in the mix. And the books you could conceivably use some of the more generic molds to make new ones. Use the MCU Bucky codebook mold (that's a thing, right? I'm not imagining they did that?) to do Destiny's journals maybe. Stuff like that.

What accessories/artifacts haven't been covered? I know there was a Marvel Universe 1:18 scale Collector, and he came with some of these, plus the Cask of Ancient Winters. But also some others that I don't remember and don't overlap with what's already been released in 1:12.

Oh, depends on how deep you want to go into Marvel lore. Others I can think of would be like The Crimson Gem of Cyttorak, the Siege Perilous, Zodiac Key, the Evil Eye, as well as comic versions of some of the ones already in MCU form (Eye of Agamoto, Cask of Ancient Winters, etc).

We've got enough nerds here we could probably make a really good list.

Where is @Boy Wonder

Maybe they could put each artifact inside its own glass (plastic) cloche? That'd be pretty slick.
I believe it was @Thor-El had who setup his artifacts display in a similar sexy manner?

That would be ideal, though would probably push the price point up a lot. I think to get a price everyone would be comfortable with, while still getting a whole mess of artifacts, you'd probably have to skip that.

But y'know, if we're making a wish list, yes please. That too.
 
@JakeEkiss I figure if it's going to be a deluxe release, and he'll likely be at least partial reuse, I'd personally need them to justify the price. Because I'm not paying deluxe prices for a pile of rehashed trinkets, most of which I already own.

Oh sure. I think it'd depend largely on how they release it. I could also see them doing something like the DC Comics Icons Accessory Pack or the SDCC Black series Thrawn with his collection. Where maybe there isn't a container for every single item, just the ones that are less likely to end up in a figure's hands, and the containers are still large enough to work for everything.

So, we had a short thing a bit ago where I said it'd be cool if ML released a sort of artifacts pack that had all the cool signature accessories they've produced over the line. Wand of Watomb, Ultimate Nullifier, Infinity Gauntlet, Cosmic Cube, Book of Vishanti, the Darkhold etc.

Artifacts as accessories for Collector is a great idea.
I was thinking that an "artifacts wave" would be cool.
Instead of mini comic books, every character comes with an appropriate artifact.

Rick Jones with wearable/removable Nega Bands
Baron Mordo with the Wand of Watomb
Modred and the Darkhold
Classic Nebula with the Infinity Gauntlet
Air-Walker with the Ultimate Nullifier
Conan with the Serpent's Crown

Some might end up as just a dedicated version of the character's standard paraphernalia, like
Valkyrie with Dragonfang
Beta Ray Bill with Stormbreaker
Annililus with his Cosmic Rod

And honestly, I wouldn't care about any real connection between the item and the character anyway, as long as it got us some new characters and some new artifacts to add to the collection.

That's not a half bad idea either. And perhaps a more collector friendly gimmick than the mini comics.

For me the draw would be getting all the artifacts in a bundle, but there's definitely some figures in that wave I'd consider (Annihilus, Bill, and comic Nebula would be cool).

Yep, that was me. Thanks for the kind words on the display. But I agree, I’d love it if more artifacts came with figures in a similar way to what Mattel was doing with their MOTUC line.

Oh those are dope. Did you make the display containers yourself? If so please share that recipe.

Thanks, and nope, those are from Mythic Legions figures. I buy them loose when they’re available.

The big containers in the back are copies of a display case that came with a DC Collectibles accessory set. A guy I know made copies using the one I bought as a template. He sells them on his site, but they’re too expensive. Mine weee part of the deal for him to copy it.

Gotcha, dope display though. I should look around and see if I can find something. I've got ok luck discovering alt uses for other toys and such as accessories for this sort of thing. For example, I found these biopods a while back. They could work for artifacts, but they feel a bit more like they should have little creatures in them. Also a little too big for most artifacts.
