General Marvel Legends

No cel-shading on animated Punisher or Blade.

Spidey line looks like it's been done, but even if they were coming, I wouldn't sell those characters if you were looking to placehold. It'll probably be a while.

I wouldn't even count on a '97 Colossus anytime soon, so don't sell him.

RTM.and AFT were my jams.

Yep... As I recall AFT began to unwind when their main content editors opted to go elsewhere and start new ventures... seems like history repeated itself with fwoosh.

Yeah I feel like the Spidey line is done for now too which is a shame but I think it's literally Blade and Punisher that are missing the most maybe Mordo and The Spot too. We are obviously very unlikely to get Wong again as the Strange and Wong 2 pack Wong is good enough. Man-spider would be a welcome addition too and the toy-biz one is very dated.

The X-men 97 line is going to keep on pumping out wave after wave if the 2nd season is as successful as the 1st I think. Just need another wave or 2 to finished an ideal complete 1st season selection of characters.

Thanks for the advice

Surely it updated more than weekly. I remember lots of back and forths. No way that would have taken months and lost energy. Maybe I'm remembering wrong. That was a long time ago.

Sorry to poke in with more off-topicness, but did anyone hang out on the spawn.com forums back in the day? That was my haunt for toy discussion.

Man... RTM... I remember when Eric Myers and Jason Geyer decided to make the site and move discussion from Rec.Toys.Misc (same initials for both, see) to the site. Those were heady days in the action figure collecting world - 1701 Star Trek chase figures, "party" Angela, The 1990's were wild, man.

 

[PanchaMaestro]

See. Back on topic. The 90s. The era that birthed Marvel Legends.

 

[Gothneo]

yes... I was doing just fine as comic book junkie when one day the comic shop I was a regular at had a ML Thing. I bought it and damn I was hooked!

We’ll see how this new cycle does against my old Toy Biz ML 7 skull cycle though. (I kept the red hellfire variant). That Toy Biz cycle is going to be tough to beat. Hard to believe that combo (figure and cycle) cost less than $10 back in the day.

Size creep makes the Toybiz one too small, but yeah, what a dang deal those were back in the day.

I hate to use the media's example, but I remember struggling to justify that $6.99 then as much as I do the $27.99 today. (In todays dollars, thats.........)
Arrgh! And Arrgh again!
