    General Marvel Legends

    Fat Cobra made it to my top 10 list a few years ago and he's not coming off until we get him! I'm not customizer, but I'm always eyeing new E. Honda figures for one that has the right stature.

    General Marvel Legends

    My kingdom for an Orson Randall and the other Immortal Weapons. Still one of my all-time favorite runs. It's a straight crime we don't have any figures from it outside of the Dormammu wave Danny.

    ML Secret Wars

    Volcana seems like someone they'd have pretty wide latitude in execution - she doesn't have a costume, per se, she's just "lady on fire", and that doesn't always get portrayed consistently. Color-wise, I hope they take their cues from Secret Wars - when she's powered up she's more like Sunspot...

    General Marvel Legends

    I agree that Volcana makes perfect sense to be in a Secret Wars wave, but it's not thematic fit that's holding her back. If/when they decide to make her they'll fit her in wherever it makes the most sense for them to based on the budget for the wave. There's no shortage of options for how to get...

    General Marvel Legends

    I'm also all about the new characters. To me, Constrictor, Falcon, and Magik are as good as new considering the previous versions are either hugely outdated or in costumes I don't have any use for. Absorbing Man is close to the same - I don't hate the BAF, but an improved classic version is...

    He still got to have the cool flaming wheels even when he wasn't a skullhead. Spiked hubcaps were optional.

    This classic Falcon better absolutely kick ass. We've been waiting 20 years for an upgrade!

    The Feb 20th Fan Stream last year had a bunch of stuff - more than I remembered. Gamerverse Spider-Man wave Gamerverse deluxe Venom, Kingpin, and Wal-Mart exclusive Spirit Spider X-Force Warpath/X-23 2-pack X-Force Archangel I was only interested in the comic stuff personally, but that's quite...

    Random Observations and ?s Re: Older Marvel Legends

    Zabu is an incredible BAF - an all-time favorite. Personally, the lineup for that wave worked for me - 4 new characters (or 6 if you include Ka-Zar and Zabu - which I think is fair for anything pre-ROML). Cable I was more than happy to get in this look. Iron Man was the biggest disappointment...

    This brings back so many memories of some of the frustrations from the Toy Biz days. Highly articulated, detailed, 1/12 versions of iconic Marvel characters! But some of them come in this weird re-imagined way that - while kinda cool - weren't exactly what people were wanting for the very first...

    This is the third crack at classic blue Johnny Blaze with his ride. (I know you know all this, just using it as a chance to post some fun/nostalgic pics) Toy Biz series VII - "Phasing" variant Hasbro circa 2018 in Legendary Riders New guy I still really love both the previous versions...

    We definitely need some new reveals around here.

    Marvel Mezco One:12 Collective

    Tempted by Nightcrawler as he's my all-time favorite but don't really collect One:12. The accessory load out is pretty cool - they definitely would have gotten me if they'd done a real BAMF effect.

    My Snapshot Spidey broke in that exact same spot when I got him 20+ years ago. Still always loved him, he was my default Spider-Man for a long time.

    One A Day 2.0 Day #369 - Kwannon

    I've cooled a bit on Spider-Verse variants, but this version of Pavitr is still a big want. Feels like he's the last big need from the "original' Spider-Verse, before it really exploded and the variants started being counted by the hundred instead of the dozen. The animated version is a great...

    Spider-Man Retro 2026 Wave with Cardiac, Owl & Hypno Hustler

    I mean they keep making them and the box stores keep buying, so clearly something must be working.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    Honestly I haven't looked into it. I decided to let them sit when all the chaos started on the vague hope that some of this might get rolled back, then kinda forgot about it, then remembered but didn't want to put the money up. I'll have to see what the options are.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    I've left three paid items sitting with Hobby-Genki since August due to all the instability in the customs rules. I think they said they would hold items indefinitely, but I should probably check and make sure I'm not going to lose them. Eventually I'll have to bite the bullet and pay up.

    Great pics Akat! I had the same problem with Nimrod's waist. Between that, the extra pink and the classic head it does seem like a big upgrade. I wish the torso was a little longer and more svelte, though - he's a little too squat through the midsection for my mental image of classic Nimrod.

    General Marvel Legends

    This whole discussion is basically the exact internal debate I've had on adding Red Sonja and Conan to my Marvel collection. I'm definitely not a "mix and match" display kinda guy and I want everything on the shelf to make sense according to the canon/continuity (as slippery as concept as that...
