General Marvel Legends

I AM happy about Colossus and Kitty.

I'm not thrilled that the diamond Emma exclusive has double elbows and the regular release does not - even though the cape basically limits the arms completely.
 
Pretty hyped about some of these reveals!

Glad all the MCU folks got to see some exciting stuff, and it all looked great. Love the Cassandra Nova and the reference to more cowboy stuff in the future!

Grizzly is awesome. Pretty cool to include the extra Ursa head. I call shenanigans on the teases, though! Nobody was ever going to guess that. The closest I saw was a heist-themed set. And the money bags don't even match!

I love Abomination. Been waiting for this since I sold the Gamerverse one years ago. He's one of those characters whose classic look in my mind is almost entirely down to the head, and we're getting two of those here. Happy to know more Hulk stuff is inbound.

Ghost Rider is just amazing. I'm perfectly happy with the classic Blaze we have, but 1) he's not exactly accurate and 2) he's hard to get ahold of. They really nailed it on this release! The body is probably too buff for him, but I think I see some reuse for Robbie in that sculpted torso. It's better than the Longshot body they used for the Haslab so I'd actually be ok with that. Oh and hey, look - another place where a balljoint waist would have been a huge improvement by allowing him to lean forward on his bike more.

Kitty & Colossus also look great, and I'm very happy they're completing Astonishing X-Men so quickly. Love the paintwork and new sculpt on Colossus. HOWEVER. It looks like both Kitty and Peter don't have lower torso articulation of any kind, and that is hugely disappointing.

Looks like they decided to go easy on us with the teases after stumping everyone with the gold. Smart Hulk and Falcon incoming! Exciting stuff.
 
They are getting a ton of use out of those new SHIELD 3 pack legs. Can't say I mind. They definitely need to use them for a modern Punisher.
 
Abomination is disappointing. That isn't classic or even comic book.

I guess I can live with the Paradox head option, but not including an unmasked Wolverine head to go with the next is... that's an incomplete figure release right there. No bueno Hasbro. At all.
Yeah, that's strange not to have the extra head in there, particularly since they already have one on hand. The face paint application must be too cost prohibitive. Who knows? Throwing it in there might have cost us a Snipes head and no one wants that ...

Thought all the reveals were great, other than the Punisher mech. I'm definitely in for most of the DP wave, Ghost Rider and the Kitty/Colossus pack.
 
FINALLY us MCU peeps got to EAT!

Very excited by the reveals - C Nova, X23, Blade and Brownverine are as hype as I was hoping. I am also really shocked and surprised by how awesome the Cowboypool looks. May as well add in the sleeveless Wolvy and I got the whole wave now!

Also holding onto the hints to more D&W figs:
- Gamit will be in the Doomsday wave
- Highest hopes are for an Elektra and a Lady Deadpool
- I would love to be cheeky and ask for a Juggs (hopefully the helmut was a hint), Pyro, Sabretooth and Toad (even in their newer costumes they could fudge into their older X movies with the slowly increasing amount of Xmen filmverse figs we have gotten)
- If I had to forego a pending character lets hold off on Johnny as we could kinda potentially fudge with some kitbashing of older MCU figs with a stretch (a Chris Evans head, maybe the Infinity War Captain America Bod, put the Deadpool 2's Cable cloak over it, add some F4 flame effects on and close enough for me!)

Lastly - awesome comic fig reveals. The Col/Kitty pack looks awesome and I might have to just pick it up to add to an evergrowing Xmen collection that Xmen 97 ignited in me.

I don't have an Abomination (nor do I really get comic figs outside of xmen or spiderman) but I am wondering if it can ALMOST be fudged into an MCU if you close one eye? Close enough to his post end game looks in Shang Chi and She Hulk.... I could be convinced... Yep I will buy it!

Happy day for MCU-ers finally :D

Yes, it's true.
- Gamit will be in the Doomsday wave
I really feel he's a lock.
- Highest hopes are for an Elektra and a Lady Deadpool
And same for these. Prominent masked character who doesn't need likeness rights? Absolutely.
- I would love to be cheeky and ask for a Juggs (hopefully the helmut was a hint),
I would too, but the DP2 version.
Pyro, Sabretooth and Toad (even in their newer costumes they could fudge into their older X movies with the slowly increasing amount of Xmen filmverse figs we have gotten)
Pyro was one I almost suggested earlier and could see as the surprise inclusion.
- If I had to forego a pending character lets hold off on Johnny as we could kinda potentially fudge with some kitbashing of older MCU figs with a stretch (a Chris Evans head, maybe the Infinity War Captain America Bod, put the Deadpool 2's Cable cloak over it, add some F4 flame effects on and close enough for me!)
I could also see Johnny being another likeness thing. yes, they've done Evans a few times but I have no idea what his deal was and maybe this wouldn't be included in that.
Lastly - awesome comic fig reveals. The Col/Kitty pack looks awesome and I might have to just pick it up to add to an evergrowing Xmen collection that Xmen 97 ignited in me.
I kinda want the Kitty to sneak in with my movie X-Men. Even if they do a figure of her from X3, I'm not thrilled to add more black leather mutants to the shelf. She and Rogue are the big ones for me since Cyclops, Storm, and Nightcrawler all got perfect suits in Apocalypse and I still hold out hope they'll make figures of those.
I don't have an Abomination (nor do I really get comic figs outside of xmen or spiderman) but I am wondering if it can ALMOST be fudged into an MCU if you close one eye? Close enough to his post end game looks in Shang Chi and She Hulk.... I could be convinced... Yep I will buy it!
Yeah, I think it's as close as we'll get in Legends.
Happy day for MCU-ers finally :D
Yeah, I can't complain. Unless I wanna be a complete dick. Maybe after a long day at work.
 
Johnny Blaze is amazing and I hope we do keep small vehicle releases coming-- we still need John Blaze, Vengeance, and a few others. Could probably reissue Cosmic Ghost Rider as well.

But the soft confirm for the Doc Samson leak is what most catches my eye. What a great way to kick off Hannukah! And one of my most personal needed characters as well.

Feel like Cosmic Invasion is a good excuse to kick some reissues out of they're not going to draw new things from it
 
That was a weird stream for me because there was technically NOTHING on my list (aside from the Falcon tease, was really hoping we'd see him), but I'm coming away wanting half that Deadpool wave, Grizzly, Ghost Rider, and the Kitty/Colossus pack, maybe even that Abomination.

The fact that there are more cowboy parts and they keep mentioning a horse is what's really exciting me.
