General Marvel Legends

A few thoughts:

- Although I'm not too thrilled with Jesse after his horrific treatment of PantherCult at SDCC, him insisting they make the twirling gun accessory is genius.
- Dan asking if we want more cowboy figures: we know the drill. At every given opportunity, we all need to name drop them to any Hasbro rep, livestream, Twitter/Facebook/Insta/Reddit account we are a part of. I personally will always expand that from "cowboy" to "western" to open it up further to characters like Red Wolf and Firebird.
-Pink Heart Iron Man: this ridiculous waste of plastic had better lead to Monsters at Halloween, and not just regular characters who have become zombies. Jack of Hearts and Dominic Fortune have hearts prominently on their costumes. I'd rather see them.
-I like that Grizzly was not on any rumor/leak lists.
-Cassandra and Blade look AMAZING.
-Cowboypool is hilarious and a must buy.
-Classic Johnny Blaze will go with my Champions, once I buy him at a deep discount.

What really ticks me off:
Johnny Blaze - update
Abomination - update
Kitty - update
Colossus - update
If the upcoming Secret Wars wave is correct - all updates
If the possibly upcoming BAF wave is correct - mostly updates
Grizzly is "new", but we all knew he would be coming eventually using the Ursa Majors body.

Feel like Cosmic Invasion is a good excuse to kick some reissues out of they're not going to draw new things from it

100%, it would be a great excuse to reissue all the GotG members, finally wrap on that era of GotG (who do we have left... Phyla? Mantis? Jack Flag?) As well as bringing out Annihilation Thanos, Annihilus, and 90s Nova. All really solid additions to the line if they get to them.

Right, first comment is "Why don't we reveal our first DP&W wave for 2026", and after the wave reveals "This is not IT for Deadpool and Wolverine in 2026, but this is the first real wave of Deadpool and Wolverine. If there are other characters you think we are missing, I would just ask that you be patient."

Rumor/leak lists going back a full year included all of the revealed Deadpool/Wolverine figures, which also included:
Elektra
Johnny Storm
Gambit
Cavillrine
Juggernaut (although listed as a BAF)

A lot of updates on characters we very consistently get only slight variations on, as well-- I'd be all for it if it these single carded releases of every essential character in their evergreen looks were kept in-stock and reissued any time it's justified and needed.

Wish Benty was on here so we could push him to make a comic accurate old and wrinkly Cassandra Nova head for that body.

"ribolito" on Instagram made a killer comic Cassandra Nova head a year or two back. Same guy who made the kits to make Nanny and Orphan Makers. I'm going to message him to see if he's intending to do another run that fits the MCU figure.

I'm always looking for new folks too, but taking 2025 as a whole I'm not complaining. They knocked it out of the park with never before made comic figures this year.

riboblito used to post on fwoosh as TVsRobLowe. That's his real name. He's been one of my favorite customizers for like 20 years.

I wonder if it wasn't somewhat intentional so the first stream of 2026 will seem a bit more grand with showing off some new folks. I do think this past year they hit a lot of wants and it really did feel like they did a lot of team completion like they said a bit back.
 
Lot of fun stuff in there but I'm kinda relieved I"m Deadpooled out - normally I leave a stream like this like "oh no my wallet" but this was a rare live stream where I kinda think I'll wait and see on most of it. Everything LOOKS great, just not for me. Except for Kitty and Colossus, I'm going to preorder that so fast my laptop will start smoking. Maybe Grizzly too because I want to support anything that convinces them to release random weirdo villains.

Only definite buy is Grizzly, and in some ways he’s the laziest of the lot. Gotta get my classic Spidey guys. I half thought they were building to it being a 2 pack with a similarly lame villain (Kangaroo, Spot?) and that would have rocked.

I thought the same thing, building to a two-pack and then BAM - just him.

Kitty's fists are TINY! Her floaty belt already annoys me. And it is ridiculous to keep releasing this terrible Lockheed. Give us a new version, or a flying version, or one that doesn't suck and can actually stay put. Also, every bit of piping on these costumes is sculpted EXCEPT her boots. Course.

Her hair-down head looks like Niki from She-Hulk. Maybe that head would be a good start for a Jennifer Walters figure!!

Also, why won't they ever do anything with her powers? Even just an alternate lower torso that's flat so it looks like she's rising up from the shelf and her upper torso snaps into it?
