He's got such a nice sculpt hasn't he? Pity the leg articulation is just not there. I hope they re-release him and address this in the upcoming Iron Man line next year.Quote:

As he should be.
I found the leg articulation to be OK, the thigh swivel is decent I guess, though the ankles, what were they thinking, he is Iron Man! :confused:
My Legends so far:

Wait, wot? Are these being sold locally now? Aaargh, gotta trawl back through the thread. Eeegads! I wants me a Deadpooool!
Nice pic Gantz! I'm waiting for Thunderball to arrive then I might do a similar show and tell. After that all I'll be needing will be Piledriver, then the first two waves will be done for me.Quote:

Deadpool's not released yet so you can take some time to get prepared. I'm glad to see he's been packed two to a case but he will still be pretty sought after. I have a feeling the X-Force variant will be common at first with the red and black coming out a bit later.Quote:

Which wave is Red She-Hulk (Betty) in again?
Thanks gantz!Quote:

I believe Red Shulkie is wave 4. She's a must buy. Hopefully the do a She-Hulk on that body too.
Sorry meangreen, been a little busy, so will get on this tonight!
And by artificial, you do mean just like house lights or LEDs?
Just houselights. Don't go to any trouble over it. I'm just curious.Quote:

My LCS just re-stocked Wave 1, I got Ghost Rider :D
http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/...z3/photo-2.jpg
Have added The Punisher to my Legends collection :)
And the New MU as well.
http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/...tz3/photo2.jpg
Oooh, I love the look of that MU punisher. I have to say I've cut back on MU lately but If I could get my hands on that one at a reasonable price I would.
Do you have Fantomex Gantz? Or anyone else? I'm thinking of springing for him. Is he an okay figure?
I pick up the occasional MU here and there, Frank only cost $15 from LCS.
Yes I have Fantomex, the guy is a great figure, I reckon you should get him :)
http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/...0032012603.jpg
Doom added to the collection. Gotta say he is fan-friggin-tastic!! :D
http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/...psf4be9ff4.jpg
Real creepy under the mask too!

I'm reposting this here because that Frost Giant is an honorary Marvel Legend in my books!

My latest ML haul has a slight theme to it. Exciting to finally get the classic Iron Man mold and the Heroic Age one too.

Hey Meangreen,
Good to hear from you dude. Were those retail at all? I hope so :)
I should take a few more pics of my Legends, nothing too new since Ghost Rider, X-Force Deadpool and Doom, waiting for my LCS to restock Red-Shulk etc.
Been going nuts on Star Wars Vintage EU and DC/Batman Unlimited.
Hitmonkey Series is now up in store at Kingscomics if you guys are interested, just got myself teh Archangel and Ultimate CapQuote:

They're pretty much my newest ML for a wee while. You gotta get that Heroic Age Iron Man though. Really top notch. Iron Monger looks like it'll be great too.
I'm waiting for these to hit US retail in full force so I can grab a Red She-Hulk and Sentry and build Hit-monkey. Hopefully it will make these a little cheaper to grab.Quote:

Looks great!
I also want Sentry, but so far have only seen Hyperion, leading me to believe he will be a variant, so we probably wont see him in a long time :(
Still awaiting Moonstar and Blade.
Picked up Red She-Hulk, she is gorgeous, and X-Force Wolverine the other day :)
They're both great!
http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/...psf384833c.jpg
Hot damn! Manged to grab me a beautiful ArchAngel. Mmmm, shiny lineys. Nabbed this bad boy from TRU.
http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k3...ps0fcc65ef.jpg
Annoying though, the shelves were full of Wolverine and some dude with an atom on his chest. I saw some on the storage shelves way up high, naturally no staff around. So's I did the logical thing, one foot on the shelf, and reach up to nab all the crap up top. Of course Acrhy here was all the way at the back wasn't he? :-/ Found a red She-Hulk as well up there. Nice.
Would have grabbed Wolvey, Hulky as well. But jeebus $30 a pop!! that's a little like a ripoff in my books. i remember when these babies were $16... but that was before hasbro got involved.
Naturally they didn't scan at the checkout and the dude couldn't find the tag on the shelf... I found it just fine. It amazes me that people at TRU consistently have no idea about their products at all!
Hey guys,
So Target have the first wave of Marvel Legends for $24, $18 during the sale, and both the Comic Series and Movie Series Iron Man 3 Legends for the same prices.
I couldn't help myself and picked up a Thor yesterday afternoon. I've wanted him for a while, man he is huge :)
Good score on Thor Xman. You should try to build Iron Monger too. He's impressive.
Is anyone out there going to try for the SDCC set this year?
It looks pretty good but I don't have too much interest in those Thunderbolts.
I got my Archangel from TRU as well last Parramatta fair (last month), and as like Tets they don't register when scanned, lucky for me though the guy they asked to look for the price came back saying it's $17.... I was so happy walking out of the store :D. It was the only Archangel left in the racks too!
http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/b...ps8e2c2b4b.jpg
Right now though I came across the little versions - Marvel ones, Im so impressed with how poseable these little figures are as well.. I bought Hercules which I must say looks way better in poses than the big version they released years ago. waaay better, kinda sexy actually hehehe :D Plus got Angel - I have Archangel (small version too) way back so I was quite pleased to grab him - the wings are awesome! Also nabbed Psylocke, Professor X and Silver Surfer. As well the two pack Colossus Vs Juggernaut. Though the Hercules little figure still is quite my favourite!
nice Score there liege, I love that figure, it;s just too damn good. And since I am linking stuff, here's my review of X-Force Wolverine
I caved and pre-ordered the Deadpool Taco packet set...:o Don't care for the Thunderbolts however. The IronMonger looks cool, but yeargh. All those Ironmen...:pQuote:

A friend in the US grabbed me the Iron Man MLs. I'm collecting them in 2 days at Botcon. (YAY!!!!) Will post some pics when I get the chance.
How much did you pay? Series 1 and 2 are on sale at Target for $18 each.
US16 each I think.
Wait, Target got the Iron Man Marvel Legends with the Build-A-Fig Iron Monger?!
Saw these at a Sydney target today, they have the iron man ones and the old school ones with ghost rider and thor etcQuote:

Don't collect these myself, but end up with a couple because a mate orders a case, and there's usually one or two double ups per case. Grabbed the masked Wolvie and Big Time Spider-Man for him from Target the other day.
I should add, Target only have wave 1 (comic series) of Iron Man Legends, not wave 2 (with the Iron Man 3 Iron Man mk42 and Iron Patriot).
Hence, you can only get half a BAF Iron Monger (comics) if you only get the ones at Target.
