General Marvel Legends

Man I can't believe I am actually considering getting rid of my 20th Anniversary Cap and Secret Wars Cap. I was messing around with them both and was thinking of taking one of them for my work desk today but I ultimately went with Gamerverse Cap. He just is so how I picture Cap body size wise and so poseable with the butterfly shoulders. I had not really touched the other two Caps since I got him. I need to find a loose Gamerverse one because I am afraid I'll wear this one out. First world problems......

I flipped mine soon after and had no regret. I miss the scales but it's way more fun to play with.

Following up on Enforcer's comments, it is odd that we're not seeing more classic "evergreen" figures for Marvel's popular characters. I'm honestly surprised by how long it finally took us to get a new sold-separately figure of Daredevil with the new Retro "Secret Wars" wave. Also, I'm still surprised that Hasbro didn't make classic versions for characters like Dracula and the green one-piece swimsuit look for Namorita for their recent "Marvel Legends" figures. I also hope Hasbro does circle back to make more new classic versions of Spider-Man villains into figures sooner than later. As cool as some of the recent Spider-Man figures have been, I'd love to see some more figures of classic Spidey foes back on shelves. While it's nice they re-released previous Retro Spider-Man figures of characters like Electro and the Green Goblin, I'd prefer to see new updated classic versions of characters like Doc Ock, Hobgoblin and Black Cat instead.

They ended up giving us 2 "classic" Punisher releases with Walgreens the first retro card. Waiting years for another classic version with this new body is very odd strategy. Was seeing some love for the Amazing Friends 3 pack Spider-Man release yesterday on Instagram - I do have 2, but they really need to single card release that one. The Secret Wars Wave 2 would have been perfect. I guarantee it would have sold better than the symbiote patch version we're about to get.

It really is. True hand candy. If I flip them it will be at a discount as I have taken a lot of the accessories from both of them and use them with Gamer Cap. Even took the shield set up from Marvel Select Cap for him to use. The scales are definitely cool but I don't need a Cap to have them.

It is genuinely bizarre to me that a classic, red and blue costume Spider-Man isn't literally always available.

All they need to do is bury the AF15 red/blue Spider-Man in a retro wave release or as a one off like the last Iceman and then release Maximum Spider-Man in brighter red and blue with a less stylized head and no web accessories at the random mid price-range (in Canada it's $41.99 - in the States I think it's $34.99) and they'd make so much money you could easily justify a niche character like Dr. Bong or Attuma or yes even Dracula in a wave later in the year. Seems like a no-brainer to me. Why the Hasbro team doesn't pitch either Spider-Man release with the caveat that if it sells exceptionally well they could price out 2 D-listers for that or the following year since the development cycle is apparently over a year.
