    Lucid's Legends - Hypno Hustler's ankle articulation & Shuma's tentacles

    Well, I just received my shipment containing my Hypno Hustler figure and, as per NORM's accurate critique of his limited ankle range, I immediately got to work opening up that point of articulation. After a quick boiling water soak, the foot popped off no problem, but the shin/lower leg is...

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

    Got Cardiac & Hypno Hustler this afternoon. First impression: to my eye, Cardiac is a darker blue than is represented in the official images but, damn if he isn't one sexy emmer effer. He is the perfect example of a character with which I am absolutely not familiar, but is so well-designed and...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    I usually only buy a maximum of one or maybe two of ANY offering including army builders (though I did buy 3 Skrulls and 3 Hellfire guards) so, I would actually be livid if I ordered a sexy Sentinel and instead received a battle-damaged one. Just sell the battle-damaged version as a separate...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    What do y'all think about Hasbro doing a felled Sentinel playset/display stage? In a similar vein to my oft repeated idea to do an F4 Giganto play-stage, it could have minor articulation (head, one arm, & hand), strategically placed foot pegs all over it, fire and smoke effects, major battle...

    Well, it seems Cardiac, Hypno Hustler, and F4 She-Hulk are out for delivery! is it just me, or has this been an unusually crazy holiday season for ML.

    Cosmic Wish List - Just For Fun!

    I feel like this is, once again, an opportune time to reiterate my assertion that most, if not all cosmic characters should, as a rule, have metallic paint applications to differentiate them from the standard earthly Marvel Legends. I mean, space people just loooove shiny metallic outfits. Just...

    Cosmic Wish List - Just For Fun!

    I don't really have ten of either category that I desire enough to list but, I would take a smattering of each. ALLIES--> Air-Walker Mantis Adam Warlock Martinex Beta Ray Bill Ch'Od (all-new, larger, devoted sculpt) Raza Longknife ADVERSARIES--> Erik the Red Annihilus D'Ken Blastaar Warstar...

    Celestials anyone?

    I would absolutely love me some Celestials! However, 3-ft-tall @ $250 a pop is ridiculous. Make them around 18 inches tall and under $100 and I'd be in like Gunga Din!

    Update/Upgrade Wish List - Just For Fun!!!

    Here are a few in dire need of a proper redo... CLASSIC KRAVEN--> with Capri pants and Iron Fist's maryjane ballet shoes. And with new and improved headsculpt. I detest that other head. CLASSIC MOLE MAN--> I know he's rumored, but they better do him right or I'm going to lose my mind...

    General Marvel Legends

    I've considered creating a frosted effect using a mid-grit sandpaper (maybe somewhere around 300?) to rough-up the surfaces. Then there's no need for sprays or coats or sealing anything. I have yet to run any experiments, mainly because I still display the old TB Iceman-with-exploding-crotch...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    Am I the ONLY one collecting not only marvel legends, but also sweet-ass 5-figure paychecks from Hasbro each fiscal quarter? lolz Like Chuck D & Flava Flav say, "don't believe the hype". (Yeeah boyeee) NEWS FLASH! Our collecting compulsions are constantly being exploited. Set your...

    A couple months ago one of our cats knocked over our aloe vera plant and I've been trying to root it since. Well, I'm really not sure exactly what's going on here but, I think Shuma is confused and might very well have a interkingdom crush. It's either that, or he is genuinely surprised...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    Well, I've had a handful of days to play with the '97 Sentinel I post-ordered and, I have to admit, he is simply magnificent. The minimal paint applications are clean and precise, his joints are all well-engineered & sturdy, and I appreciate his ability to strike dynamic poses. He is a beast...

    I feel ya, B. It works the nerves having to flawlessly be on point. But you got this. I imagine you have already prepared all sorts of fun and games for the youngins, including filling out their very own wishlists of their top 10 favorite candies and such. Haha Remember to breathe. In thru...

    The Islands of Misfit Toys

    I expect we all have acquired those random action figures and toys that, for whatever reason, just do not fit into our displays or bins and instead seem destined to languish, perpetually collecting dust on the random shelf, desk, or windowsill. Well, I thought it might be fun to share our misfit...

    I must say, after inserting the tentacles in the 12/4/8, 2/6/10 configuration, this Shuma Gorath is pretty stinkin' fun and definitely in the running for my favorite ML figure of 2025. But my late-order Sentinel just arrived this afternoon so... more fun to come. And yeah, ...I'm all done...

    I think this is maybe the optimal thread to talk about the upcoming Ghost Rider & motorcycle offering so, ...I was just looking at him again, trying to figure out what is throwing off his overall appeal in my mind's eye and then it hit me; the damn gloves! Why the hell are they white? I don't...

    Marvel Legends Gamerverse

    Understanding that Shuma's tentacles are pretty much analogous to a Roach Motel ("Roaches check in, but they don't check out"), I'm hesitant to insert them into their ports until I determine their optimal configuration. The strange thing is, while the official image shows the three hooked...

    I was just thinking how Hrimhari could be an interesting figure in a supernatural sub-line provided they make him look badass. But I would much prefer that version from X-MEN annual #9 where they were in Asgard and Loki transformed he and Rahne into Grimfang & Bleakheart. That could also be...
