>X-Men Legends Juggernaut Wave and Spider-Man Legends Spaceshit Venom Wave coming in the next 30 days
Marvel select Kingpin fucking when
>>5764247
Seems like I got a shipment notice from entertainment earth on the juggernaut wave preorder. Should arrive by Thursday next week
>>5764337
Same here hoping sooner since im just a couple towns over. Fags wouldnt let me pick it up
Marvel Legends Karnak fucking when
>tfw too scared to attempt the hip mod on Hobgoblin wave Spider-Man
I only have a hobby knife and a blow dryer, and I'm afraid of messing up because it's not exactly a cheap figure to replace anymore.
Anyone here do it?
>>5764592
Neither of those tools are adequate anyway. You need a heat gun and a dremel tool to do proper damage cause the plastic is so strong.
>>5764595
Well, looks like I'm stuck with shit leg articulation then. Thanks for stopping me before I fucked it up, anon. I have no idea what they were thinking with such a bad hip design.
>>5764596
Rotate the leg all the way forward, then twist up and out. Youre welcome.
>>5764592
I just did mine, anon.
Hair dryer is completely fine. You don't need a heat gun to get the leg off.
Listen to this anon:
>>5764685
Just be careful with it.
Every time I see photos or videos of people doing it, they take off way too much material from the socket. You don't need to remove all that much to free up the articulation.
I personally used a dremel, but with patience and care, an X-Acto knife should be just fine.
>>5764765
This was my joint mod.
Makes a world of difference.
If you feel up to it, the successful end result is worth it.
Then again, if you fuck up, you better save $40 for another one from eBay.
>>5764564
Fucking this x1000. To a lesser extent, Gorgon and Triton, but I need me some more Inhumans. Was hoping that would be the theme of the SDCC set.
Despite the ML Raft box set & MU The Collector set leaks, and their being less than a month left, Marvel/Hasbro hasn't done an official announcement of them for SDCC 2016. Maybe they'll pull out another ML set or something like last year's Ant-Man set.
>>5764858
Okay?
>>5764891
OKAY!
>>5764592
just buy a scarlet or ben to practice on
>>5764778
I've always thought the legs would end up all floppy
>>5765092
pssst... they do.
Has the Venom Knight wave shown up in stores yet?
>>5764858
Some sort of Netflix set would be glorious, but equally horrible because the aftermarket prices would probably be the worst out of everything to be SDCC exclusive this year.
>>5764765
>Every time I see photos or videos of people doing it, they take off way too much material from the socket. You don't need to remove all that much to free up the articulation.
How do I know exactly where and how much to cut? I want the best range of motion possible.
>>5764247
I got living laser in the mail
>>5764564
If they keep pushing Inhumans, they'll inevitably make him.
The Target near me isn't getting any new Marvel Legends until the sell the dozen Patsy Walker Hellcats and White Tigers on the pegs :(
>>5765397
He has his own series right now and that's why I really like him, honestly I'd forget he's a major Inhuman if it didn't remind me
>>5765440
I wish one of the stores near me had a dozen Patsy Walkers because the two at my Wal-Mart aren't doing it for me paint-wise
>>5764592
Using just a blow dryer and a hobby knife was a bitch, but after about an hour and a half I did it.
Thanks for all the help and tips, anons. I like this guy WAY more now.
... Now if only the ab crunch had lateral movement.
>>5765328
Older pic and using Spidey 2099 as an example of what you need to remove. See the indented area that's circled? Cut that away and you'll have much better articulation.
>>5765910
May I add that if you have Superior Spidey it's not there and the spideys from later waves are better in the range
>>5765806
You'd have to move to 1/10 for that.
>>5766064
Huh?
>>5764592
Do you have Walgreen Ant Man, Scarlet Spider, Ben Reilly spider etc?
These guys have the same mold, you should practice first before going to town on pizza spidey. Also a blow dryer might not be strong enough, those pegs are really jammed in. Make sure to lever the legs out, rather than pulling them out of the peg.
>>5766138
The Select has both a hinged crunch and a diaphragm with a ball.
>>5764778
Or just fucking rotate the fucking hip. Whatever works.
>>5765276
I haven't even seen the Giant Man wave in my area. I'll never understand how this shit works.
I've never been able to find this venom in stores and kinda want to get him online. Is he any good? The Marvel Select looks better, but muh scale.
>>5767831
Venom fluctuates in size, so scale shouldn't be an issue. If you want better sculpt and paint, go with Select, but if you want better articulation, go with Legends.
>>5767834
I prefer articulation to paint and sculpt, so I think I'll bite the bullet on the Legend. Never had a Select before, is articulation bad?
>>5767834
>better sculpt and paint
>better paint
>emblem cuts across waist joint, ruining it in anything but a neutral pose
It's sad when the retards at Hasbro can at least cut the emblem off above the waist.
>>5767831
The Legend's way better than that body buck has any right to be. I hated him from the promo pics, but now that I have him in hand, I love him. It's worth a buy.
Haven't seen the Select in person, so I can't speak for it.
Got my notification from BBTS about the X-Men wave.
My body has never been more ready for X-Men.
>>5767831
I dig this figure. So much so, that I want to pull him down from my display and play with him right now. Wish I'd gotten 2.
>>5768027
>literally just got my pile from them in today because I figured they wouldn't get the x-men stuff until late july/early august
whups.
>>5768030
Pretty much this. I have 3.
>>5768033
To be fair, it was a really short preorder period for a ML wave.
rate my display/toy/, which ones should i buy next? getting al the new shf that are coming out, exept mk 3 and ultron, i want to get some new spiderman figures, which ones would u recomend?
>>5768135
>bug eyed rogue
WELP
>>5768100
change up the poses a little bit. The 3 in the front all basically all in the same pose.
>>5768135
>wolverine is a proper manlet
>juggernaut is a bonus for the case
>actually getting rogue, kitty, and deadpool at all
What a time to be alive, etc.
>>5768144
>Wolverine is a bit shorter, wish he was a bit smaller though
Are you serious? What more do you want from them? They gave us a shorter Wolverine just because sperglords like you weren't satisfied with the last two and bitched incessantly. And now this isn't good enough? What a fucking joke. I hope you never get your Puck sized Wolverine.
>>5768135
Very hype. I just hope dorkside doesn't take too long to get their stock.
>>5768155
>dorkside
Hope you get it sometime this year.
>>5768153
Wolverine is barely taller than a 15 year old asian chick.
He should be shorter.
Shit, I don't get paid till friday...does bigbad cancel orders outright or is there a period of time they give you?
I haven't heard anything on my pre order, yet...

Ah, to be a child again.
>>5768133
>that is a BAF in 2016
God almighty. At least onslaught is great.
>>5768252
Have you tried heating it and pressing it down more? Maybe it's not seated properly.
>>5768161
By the look of things, Wolverine is shorter than/around the same height of the teenage girl body, which Jubilee was on, so he's plenty small enough.
>>5768153
You must have a very sad life to come into /toy/ with such a bad attitude. How dare someone else state an opinion!
Just bought the MS Hulkbuster for 15 bucks, I'm really excited. Anyone have the tutorial for popping out the head a bit more out?
>>5768133
Can you take a close pic of Juggernauts head? I'd like to see how bad that chipped tooth looks in hand.
>>5768340
They made a Hero Mashers Juggernaut?
>>5768340
The MS version has a better sculpt, by far
>>5768353
No doubt.
I'm surprised at the size of the ML though, didn't expect it'd be as tall as the MS.
>>5768353
Doesn't look like the articulation is much different either
>>5768370
I'm sure if you're just posing them, sacrificing articulation isn't a big deal, but I like to play with my figures so I go for the hasbro one.
>>5768359
They probably have plans for the body and erred on the large size. They needed a step up in terms of bulk over the recycled Avengers Hulk physique, and it looks like it will be a good body for that. Definitely more in line with a traditional ultra buff body.
>>5768370
MS Juggernaut has really bizarre ankles. They're set to move laterally, with no way to make it hinge forward without basically spinning the entire leg around. I would say the Legends will hands down win in that regard, but the MS is vastly better in every other metric.
>>5768379
>but the MS is vastly better in every other metric.
So ML wins at ankles. Got it.
>>5768373
>sacrificing articulation isn't a big deal
Take good look at those two figures and find sacrifices in articulation that are worth an absolutely awful looking Juggernaut.
Because, without having it in hand, if you just go from head to toe and look at the articulation of those two figures, they're really similar. Sure, the ML might get a slightly improved range of motion in a few places, but I highly doubt a fraction of a degree of range here or there will be noticeable to anyone.
So I really doubt the extreme sacrifice in sculpt is worth very minor range of motion improvements.
>I like to play with my figures
Just curious. How is what you do different than "just posing them"?
>>5768427
>So ML wins at ankles. Got it.
Yeah. Ab crunch too, I bet. The MS barely moves there. Not sure what's going on with ML Juggernaut in terms of boot cut and wrists, but if it has either of those it comes out ahead there, too.
>>5768341
Heat the head till it becomes rubbery, pull it out, replace the peg with a Hobby Base Big Size double ball joint, heat again, pop it back together.
>>5768427
>Just curious. How is what you do different than "just posing them"?
sometimes I just need them to stand up straight while another character talks about his plan or goes over plot details. Having Superman and Buzz Lightyear explain to Juggernaut and Krillen the plans to take over the book shelf doesn't require a range of motion.
>>5768433
IIRC, the MS moves back pretty well, but forward, not so much.
I'll have to mess with him again when I reconfigure my X-Men shelf after the new wave gets here in a few days.
>>5768475
Just tested mine, from the fully forward position to the fully tilted back position it moves roughly 1/8"-1/4".
>>5768479
So 1/8" forward and 1/4" back?
>>5768507
No, full range of movement in total, maybe 1/4"
I wouldn't even call it capable of actual forward motion just static straight up and some back.
yooooooooooooo
>>5768518
Yeah the ML will no doubt beat that.
>>5768521
No fucking way. Is that the Legends one?
>>5768534
Undoubtedly, yeah. The hinge crunches have been mostly good on the big bodies that Hasbro has been making. But I would never put BAFernaut in my collection because it looks so ridiculously cheap and cartoony.
>>5768521
What am I looking at? I'm assuming a Legends first appearance Spider-Man using the pizza Spidey mold?
>>5768543
the one from the civilwar 3 pack i think
>>5768562
MCU Civil War Spider-Man. All new mold, almost entirely inaccurate.
>>5768566
Ah, I see. I don't pay attention to the movies so I had no idea. Real old school looking costume, I like it.
>>5768566
Inaccurate how?
>>5768591
Do you have any examples of inaccuracies?
>>5768590
Just look at it. Proportions, web lines, chest logo, colors etc.
>>5768596
In pic related you can see the different spider in the chest and a slightly different layout of the black bands in the arms. The dark blue lines on the legs are also omitted. I still think the fig looks cool, though.
>>5768342
Paint doesnt line up on the mold correctly
>>5768100
>Mixing movie shit with comic figures
Into the trash it goes
>>5768614
It'll obviously be case by case.
>>5768027
i hope my amazon preorder ships early as well. currently has a august 3rd date on it
Just got Scarlet Spider in the mail, and I couldn't help but notice how it seems like it's much better quality than Pizza Spidey. Joints are tighter, plastic quality seems more solid too.
Anyone else who owns both feel the same way? Or is my pizza spiderman just a victim of bad qc?
>>5769482
Mine are about the same, and if anything, My pizza Spidey's joints are stiffer than Scarlet's.
>>5769648
I guess I must've gotten a sub-par pizza Spidey then. His right knee is a little loose and sways left and right slightly and his ab crunch is a little shakey, while my Scarlet Spidey is basically perfect.
Can't win them all I guess. I'm really liking Scarlet Spider, so happy to finally have a good figure of him. Wish the eyes didn't have the black outline though.
>Updated non-movie Black Widow nowhere in sight
eurofag here, whats the best place i can pick up this guy, local stores only have the ultron wave and the allfather one
>>5769673
so absurd. 4 inch got like 4 versions of her in 3 years, 6 inch nothing.
![SabertoothVariant01[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/Wz1nmdH.jpg "SabertoothVariant01[1].jpg")
I got this Face Off Sabretooth loose for pretty cheap thinking I could customize him into Puma. I never got around to it but stuck him on my Spidey villains shelf anyways.
>>5767831
I bought 6 of these marvel legends and already opened 3. Will open the rest once I get the space cleared up and dusted off
>>5764247
MODOK Trump when
>>5769673
>>5769800
A simple re-release of the Black Widow from the TRU exclusive twin-pack would be more than sufficient.
>>5767831
Select is amazing and works really well since Venom varies in size so much. I'd say he's still the best Venom figure available. That being said, ML is still really good and he has more of that simple style of a old comic/cartoon Venom so he might work better in certain displays than the more detailed Select. For example I think he looks better next to ML Carnage than Select Venom does because of the difference in detail.
>tfw love pizza spidey but hate the eyes
They're bothering me enough to want to try sculpting my own over them but I've never done anything like that before.
I've looked into maybe getting a series 1 Spider-Man Classics head (but I think it'll be too small) and headcasts of the McFarlane Spidey head, but they all have sculpted webbing.
>>5769924
The SDCC Spidey looks to be what you're looking for.
>>5769925
Do you have any pictures of the one you're referring to?
Hey, wondering if anyone knows if the blue deadpool got a bootleg/KO. I can't find anything, but the colors on this one that someone's trying to sell me feel a bit off.
>>5769722
It's trash. Buy the select
>>5770278
I believe it does. I saw a Chinese seller on eBay recently selling a bunch of the blue and red ones for $9 each or so.
>>5770291
The Select is good aside from the useless diaphragm and lack of ankle pivot
>>5769933
Sorry about the wait, friend.
>>5770448
What is the best way to get SDCC Legends for non-con attenders?
>>5770448
No worries, bud.
Wow, that's exactly the kind of head sculpt I need but damn, to be part of a huge, convention exclusive set full of figures I don't want...
Pardon my ignorance, I'm new to Hasbro Legends. Is there a chance of that Spidey getting a single carded release sometime down the road? Or am I stuck paying scalper prices for what I'm assuming is ready an expensive box set just to get him?
>>5770455
Hasbrotoyshop after the event. Gotta be lightning fast, they sellout quick
oi cunts, the spider on my mayday spider girl is sloppy as fuck, and im trying to fix it with some paint, but i dont know what to get since im kind of new to all that shit. i fixed he huge chips of white out of the eyes with an opaque paint pen, but the body paint looks glossier than what comes in the pen. any suggestions?
>>5770546
Use a top coat to level out the finish of the paint and plastic.
>>5770448
>yellow hands and electricity on electro art work
what they mean by this?
>>5770459
They sell some on HasbroToyShop after the con is over, that'll be your best chance
>>5770459
Look up the individual figures on eBay after its release. They'll be a bit more than a standard release but its cheaper than buying a whole set of figures for 90% of the ones you don't want.
>>5770448
Thats the new mcfarlane spidy right?
looks like a mcfarlane eyes with pizza body
will it be know as hasbro mcfarlane or pizza mcfarlane?
>>5770627
tried buying doctor strange box set after multiple page crashes and failed loads I didint make it. hopefully I can with this box set. got ant man set cause he didnt sell fast at all
>>5770635
spidy and sandman are the ones I really want and they will probably cost the price of the boxset on ebay together.
So they advertise a specific time when things go up?
>>5764337
Got mine today, everything looks pretty good
The 4 inch Black Panther and Agent 13 pack is in stock at toysrus.com.
Got the X-Men wave on the way with a Black Panther. So stoked to start a 90's X-Men cartoon line up. Hearing rumours about Cyclops and Colossus in the next wave.
>>5770448
I was right. The SDCC Abomination deco is much better than the Cap Wave one.
>>5770751
What makes you say that? He seems to be a rather solid green as opposed to the mostly 2 toned one. I thought people liked colour variation.
Has anyone who ordered any of the new waves on Dorksidetoys heard anything yet?
>>5770803
>What makes you say that?
Cause it looks better.
I wouldn't mind the two-toned look if it was done better but it isn't. Plus the darker green on him just looks better.
>>5770937
Opinions my man
>>5770660
How's the googly eye condition on Rogue, Phoenix and Kitty? Do they look derpy
Those are my biggest fear. I went through 3 Misty Knights from Amazon before giving up and just order 10 of her on my local walmart and return 9 of them on pickup because the googly eyes
Am I the only one excited about pic related? The white outfit was dope and I missed the toybiz one always wanting it. Kinda disappointed but the weird legs on the white suit but all the dope hands made up for it for the most part.
>>5771125
Excuse the bad grammar, meant the white one's legs bugged me but the extra hands made up for it
>>5771125
>dope
>dope
Yeah this looks terrible
>>5770963
I never said it wasn't.
I just like the look of the SDCC one better. You're the one who got buthurt over me stating that I liked one better than the other and then I stated why after you asked.
>>5771159
I think the colors look just way too dark.
>>5771159
Hasbro's gotta stop basing MCU Legends on pre-release concept art. It'd be one thing if that was done so there'd be figures available as soon as the movie was out, but it's months late.
>>5771159
Hasbro just needs to stop the MCU figures and stick to comic figures. These are so bad.
>>5771182
If .5% of your total buyers care about such things, and 50% of that .5% are going to buy it no matter what, there's not a whole lot of incentive to wait things out.
>>5771159
I'm so fucking bummed out they ruined this figure, I wanted a Spidey so bad. At this point I'll probably get the Funko cus the eyes are normal-ish looking.
>>5771216
We'll get another one for the movie
>>5771216
I'm still hoping for an SHF.
>>5771159

>>5771239
>What makes that any different from the Hasbro Defense Force coming to the aid of every other shitty looking figure they make
That's what I'm saying, as crappy as it looks, they'll make excuses and praise it anyway. It's an endless cycle.
>>5771159
Totally agree, looks like they rushed that one out the door.
>>5770448
I can't tell if I should pursue getting those figures or not. I want maybe half of the figures, its such an odd case.
>>5771159
Wow that looks like shit.
I hope Hasbro puts out another more screen accurate one eventually cause this whole set looks like a pass for me.
>>5771024
Kitty looks perfect, Rogue's eyes are far a part so it's not a great mold to paint on, but alright and jean seems like she is looking a bit up, which is ok I guess. Haven't had time for a full unboxing yet or Id take some pics.
>>5771024
I may keep an "eye out" for a 2nd rogue, she's ok, but I'll see if I find a better head in the wild
>12 inch Legends introduce vastly superior torso articulation
>dat surprisingly realistic crouch pose is now achievable
>people still defend horribly outdated setup with inaccurately placed ab-crunch and garish waist cut
>>5771804
That 12 inch version of Spiderman is pretty bad though.
>>5771838
Certainly not worth $50, but it's not bad.
>>5771838
Said no reviewer, ever.
>>5769825
Nick Spencer might be the biggest August to ever write a Captain America comic
>>5771985
That page is from Spider-Gwen Annual #1
Oh who am I kidding nobody in /co/ reads the comics they're triggered by why would I expect better here
Does the Rhino wave Scarlet Spider not twist at the waist? I just got one and it doesn't seem to have the standard waist rotation (or it's really stuck).
>>5772073
Lower his belt and you should be good.
>>5772075
No luck. Gonna try boiling the joint to see if that loosens it up a bit.
>>5772098
Don't. Just move the belt away. Don't worry about pushing too hard
Is there a Shocker figure coming out anytime soon?
>>5772108
Too late. Already did it and it did the trick.
>>5772120
One was rumored for the upcoming Spider-Man wave, but when the wave was revealed it wasn't included despite almost everything else the leak mentioned being featured. But since almost everything else in the leak was true hopefully we are getting one soon.
Nothing's been officially announced or shown, though.
>>5771804
It saddens me that we'll have to wait a very long time for an Ant-Man in this line since they need people to buy their shitty BAF first.
>>5772127
Walgreens exclusive perhaps?
>>5772142
Possibly. Or just pushed back to a later wave for whatever reason.
>>5771947
I don't know which reviewers dicks you're sucking but I own the figure.
It has no waist twist which makes no god damn sense. The legs barely go to the sides at all either just like its 6 inch counterpart.
Not to mention the web shooters can't work like they should on a natural pose. Just sculpted on detail nothing else.
>>5772127
Ok. I thought he'd been rumored a while back. Really wanting to finish the Superior Foes lineup. Hopefully, we get him and Overdrive soon.
>>5772015
I'm reading most of the ongoings and I'm digging the whole Kobik thing connecting both Caps and Thunderbolts and stuff
MCU King Pin when?
>>5771804
looks like those shitty 5poa footlong tard toys :D
no waist twist? also is chinee knockoff?
>>5768252
I would cut the neck off at the base, remove about 1cm, then drill in and pin+superglue it with a paperclip. the customs general thread might have more ideas.
>>5772108
Why would you tell someone to not heat up their figures to fix sticking? Are you actually retarded?
Just traded Black Panther for these. I thought that with the all-BP cases, the demand for him would dwindle. Apparently not?
>>5772339
he's 25 dollars on ebay right now. It's a fine deal considering using that old toybiz mold for Bulldozer is the only good thing Hasbro has ever done.
>>5771772
Rogue is the mold too, the eyes cant both line up looking forward when they are so far apart on a round face.
Popped open iceman and holy hell is he gummy.
>>5771804
I will buy the shit out of this if they make a scarlet spider and a symbiote spiderman
has anyone seen the hobgoblin wave hit yet?

>>5773030
Free them

Sell them to me.
>>5773030
What are these, Marvel Universe?

Yep.
>>5773064
Maybe, I'm going to try and open them first tho.
>>5772339
Do you live in a cave?
>>5773030
If you have Ares and Moonstone Ms. Marvel send them my way.
But really I'd just keep them or sell them if you really have to.
Which ones do you have? Can you take a pic?
>>5773030
>he buys 1/18

Yea, hopefully that means he won't snap and break, i'll take gummy translucent plastic over broken translucent plastic.
>>5772524
Has the juggernaut wave hit stores? How come there's no reviews yet? Which wave is even supposed to be out first, venom or juggy? All these figures comin out at once. It's very confusing and hard on the wallet.
>>5773422
Reviews are there. But, 3 waves hit at once.So not all reviewers are staring with the X-Men wave.
>>5773453
What's the third wave? Abomination?
>>5773462
Cap/Abom
Spidey/Venom
X-Men/Jugg
>>5773502
I can't believe people are already getting these and reviewing them. I haven't seen the Giant Man wave here yet.
>>5773509
Spider-Man and X-Men waves are getting to those who preordered cases months ago, not surprising. Cap wave is getting to those who got it early through connections to people out of country. Move on from buying in store, distribution is fucking garbage.
>>5773509
>I haven't seen the Giant Man wave here yet.
>looking for MLs in the wild
There's your problem.
As shit as BBTS, dorkside, etc are, buying cases and singles online is the only way to get your figures in a timely fashion.
With all 3 of these waves hitting now, what in the fuck is Hasbro going to show at SDCC?
I'm actually getting scared we'll get 3 more waves this year at the rate we're going at.
Has any of the exclusives shown up at retail yet like the TRU 3 pack or the Civil War Falcon and Bucky?
>>5773622
The tru three pack with falcap, Kate Bishop and for some reason another fucking vision? Saw it in the wild about a month ago mixed in with the shield three pack. Sam Wilson looked okay but I wasn't about to drop 60 dollars plus tax for it.
And I updated it. I had to cut out a ton of them, but I may go back and update it to fit everyone in, or just break it into two parts.
I'm sure I missed some, but here's what I put together for the moment. There are released photos of some of the figures, like the Abomination wave. I just used comic photos since there weren't any good official, promotional images available.
>>5773716
Can you post the 2015 version as well?
>>5773724
Sure, it looks like I last updated it in January? Some anon may have a newer one, it's been awhile since I've worked on these charts. Time flies by fast.
>>5773619
SDCC tends to open with displays of recent releases, and a few new items. Then, each day leading up to the panel, they show a new wave.
At the panel, they'll show off the waves that they just showed off. And they'll talk about things that are in development for the next year.
So expect ~2 new waves and a hand full of exclusives. Either multi-packs or single cards.
Let's look at last year:
Last year they started by showing off the waves they had just released, and then two new waves (Absorbing Man & Onslaught) and new exclusives.

At the pannel, they talked about a lot more including Abom, Namor, and a future X-Men wave.

I absolutely can't wait for them to completely drop the buckycap body. I got comic nick fury and he's a complete mess. Wobbly hips, wobbly ab crunch, and his neck won't even hold his head up.
>>5773775
I've never had that problem with the Bucky Cap mold. I do agree that it needs to get changed out.
>>5773786
The neck was a new one for me too, but the hips and ab joint have been consistently terrible for a long time now. Is that how that sort of thing works? They just have a single buckycap steel mold and it's been getting more and more worn as they've hustled it for the last five years?
>>5773716
I sincerely hope the next Spider-man wave is true. I need my Shocker and Black suit. Spider UK is just a plus.
And I wonder if we'll ever actually get Darkhawk. Maybe when GotG 2 comes out, he'll get a figure? He could take the place of Nova or Iron Man.
>>5773716
Fuck Marvel legends move to fast and my country doesn't even get them. I'll just collect spideys at this point they are the most solid so far
>>5773953
Which country? And yeah they really need to calm down with the releases. A lot of stores still have figures from the Allfather wave shelfwarming.
>>5764247
So im a filthy casual who only gets figures he likes and not the whole line fuck BAF but waiting to see Scarlet witch, winter soldier and falcon walmart exclusives in store.
>>5773716
I really hope that next Spidey wave is true. I need Symbiote Spidey, Kamala, and Shocker
>>5773970
Ecuador. The only legends we get are $50 and fuck me if I ever pay that. It's bullshit back in the day we used to get them normally for like 15 bucks in toystores not in some weird "collector" store where they charge 50 bucks for mattel multiverse
When will the Mango Iron man and Civil War War Mchine 2 pack hit stores or did I missed it?
It seems like a bunch of reviewers got early releases, then the two pack was scalped on Amazon for $80 bucks and that's it. Is it supposed to be exclusive somewhere? It never even showed up on BBTS
>>5774071
It's a Target exclusive. Based on how they handled their other exclusive packs, I wouldn't be surprised if it hasn't hit most stores yet and ends up going on clearance.
>>5774087
My local target literally only has Misty Knights and White Tigers. It's been that way for like 2 months now since the last Kraven and Chameleon was sold out. Oh yeah and also lots and lots of Finn Jakkus. Started to think that maybe toy collectors in my area are racists
>>5774092
Man I really wanted to get Misty Knight, but every single one I come across had lazy eyes. I went with White Tiger in the end since the paint wasn't bad on it.
>>5774110
Well it's not like she's selling, so you can probably just visit your local Target, Walmart, and TRUs to compare them physically.
She suffers the same shit sculpt as Rogue >>5771770 The eyes are already far apart to begin with, so if it's slightly off center then the googly eyes will be exacerbated by an order of magnitude
can I see some marvel displays
I want to see some good ones to get me in the mood to display my spidermen,
I have em sitting in a bin
>>5774146
Sorry for the potato camera, this is what I had
>>5774146
Mine is just okay compared to others like >>5774154 (awesome poses by the way), but here it is. I need to work on my posing and display options. Also haven't dusted for awhile.
I'm not sure if I should move Superior Venom to the Superior section or keep him with the other Symbiotes.
>>5774177
>awesome poses by the way
Thanks anon, your ain't half bad too, might want to declutter slightly. I understand that it sucks that you can't display all your figures together, but giving them space will make them look more premium and nicer.
I might steal your Kraven pose, because his neutral facial expression made him looks pretty bored on my pose
I just bought a supposed new and sealed Legends Carnage off eBay, and I noticed in one of the pictures that there's no tape on the flaps. Did they originally come that way, or was it opened before?
>>5774210
My bad, wrong picture.
>>5774154
really like your black cat pose gonna probably borrow that from ya. Id recommend some acrylic stands to add verity for the space you have. there are also bootleg sh figurarts stands on the cheap on ebay that can help with more flying poses for the future.
>>5774177
aside from the snarky remark your display i pretty solid, my only issue with it is that its a bit too static for my taste
>>5774214
most have tape some dont. My carnage didnt when I got it at my comic shop but did when I got my spare at a target.
--------------------------------------------------
Thanks for the photos. this is part one of my marvel colection (do have a ultron from the three pack but I didnt include em cause hes the only non spidy related one)
Pic 1 of 2
Pic 2 of 2
made the image smaller and combined em for slower connected annons
Thinking of repainting one agent venom red for a thunderbolts variant.
Rhino is a select but I prefer him to the legends ones so I sold him off along with absorbing man
>>5774222
>most have tape some dont. My carnage didnt when I got it at my comic shop but did when I got my spare at a target.
>>5774224
>To my recollection that wave did not have tape. I remember opening several new from the box without tape.
Thank you, I didn't notice until after I paid so I was a bit worried.
I don't give a crap about the package but I just wanted to make sure I was actually getting one that's new and sealed.
I asked the seller if it was from their collection because of how beat up the package is, but they said they found it at Ross, so that explains that.
And I could never find one at retail, the hell.
>>5774235
no prob. carnage is great I have 1 original left and a knock off. the easiest way to tell the knockoff from the orginal is that the bootleg has metalic silver eyes while the original has white pearl.
As for the ross incident it was from a retailer who probably refused to restock the shelf till the whole case as gone and since electro and beetle shelfwarmed sold off a few cases to ross thinking the whole line was a dud.
>>5774239
Nice, I didn't know that about the eyes. How's the quality of the knock off?
For sure, that makes a lot of sense. I wish my local Ross was that lucky. I paid $40 shipped for it, when the seller probably paid around $10-$13.
I don't like paying scalper prices for things, especially at double retail, but it was the cheapest legit Carnage I could find.
So far I have pizza Spidey, Scarlet Spider, Venom, and now a Carnage on the way. I just might grab Ben Reilly.
>>5774251
great start. [kaine scarlet spiderman or sweater]
Bootleg is pretty solid have owned 3 at different times. the tendrils are of stiffer plastic. the most common error is that the leg swivel at the calf can sometimes be misaligned or stuck all together 2/3
the other bootlegs from that series are no bueno except for ultimate goblin who is honestly ok.
carnage was total luck on his end. mine only ever had a spiderwoman as a legend that ended up there randomly.
Ben is solid especially for spider carnage. Id recomend just getting the ones you really like. Ive watched the 90s show and read the comics since I was a kid (mainly ultimate spiderman) so i have a problem of liking to many.
if you want to keep your collection small yours is solid all youd probably want is a green goblin just because hes such a staple and hasbro is bound to release one soon given that hobgoblin came out. otherwise just get a black suit spidy from the next rumored wave
>>5772345
not much left of what Toybiz did on that mold, they already changed it once in 2010 for Warpath and then 2 more times. Its too bad they kept the dumb toe hinges
>>5774261
Thanks, anon. Ben Reilly Scarlet Spider.
Nice, i just might grab a bootleg down the road for the hell of it.
I've never even seen Legends at the ones near me, so when they told me they found Carnage there, I was shocked.
Yeah, the Spider Carnage head looks really cool, plus I can use an extra Spidey head in case I decide to sculpt new eyes for pizza Spidey, so I think I'll pull the trigger. I grew up with that show and read Ultimate Spider-Man for a while, so I feel you on that.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll be grabbing a black suit Spidey and Green Goblin as soon as they're available.
>>5774222
>snarky remark
Oh I wasn't being snarky, I sincerely liked the anons posing. Thanks, and yes I agree needs some more dynamic posing.
Nice collection, I want your Scorpion and Doc Ock figures!
>>5774299
ah my apologies I misinterpreted it as I read it. also keep superior venom with symbiotes. symbiote superior was such a tiny thing in the comic that it makes more sense to stay with the symbiotes than the superior display.
Sadly scorpion is the most disappointing thing to get your hands on. you cant really pose him and hes more of a statue. Id defiantly get doc ock he's perfect in every way possible. only reason I keep scorpion is that there is no alternative sculpt for legends and hes one of my favorite villians.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
took the webbing from fearsome foes spidy and added him to pizza spidy I really love the result.
especially since I disliked FF spidy having the webbing in the first place
>>5774154
>>5774177
Thanks for the display shots I went with a 90's spiderman display
