    hmmm I think you have valid points but at the end of the day we are all just guessing.
    This unknown has left me a little bit hesitant to plunge head first into collecting this line in the fear that Legends will be back and once again I will be able to buy figs in a scale that matches everything else I have already got instead of starting again.
    I know of ppl who will be ticked off if this does happens though, as some of you would too. We are talking of the ppl who got rid of their legends line collection and started again with universe, I would be very angry indeed.
    in all honesty though I still haven't bought any despite trying too, all I can find is green goblins and hand ninjas mostly, none of the figures I really want.
    I had a look at ebay but prices are ridiculous on there.

    I highly doubt Legends will ever be back. F*** they even had most of the same ones at this years SDCC as last year, and Im pretty sure the year before that, its a dying line and Hasbro are to cheap to truly continue it imo.

    Have you checked out bigbadtoystore?

    http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...05&mode=retail

    Thats the wave with Mardox, Ghost Rider etc. Its $78.90 AUS for the whole set, and shipping is $28.95 AUS

    Its what I am deciding will be the best option.

    Speaking of BBTS...

    You should see what price they're selling the new unmasked Iron Patriot for.

    I could think of much more rewarding ways to blow $200 USD on MU figures... Especially considering he'll probably prove to be as plentiful as any other of the recent variants.

    Cheers mate. Not a huge fan of the other figs in the set, I think I have found an alternate supplier though just working out the price of shipping. Polaris and Havok hopefully next!

    Nope, though I did email Hasbro on my end and was told to expect wave 8 and wave 8 revision as well as wave 7 in stores.

    Maybe I'll see 'em nearer Christmas I suppose.

    nope, just the same peg warmers on display in my area.

    In addition to my previous posts stating my love for x-factor, if they don't use my ingenious idea (if I do say so myself lol) of releasing entire team packs then for good god make the rest of the x factor team or at least Strong Guy.
    end rant.

    Your idea is Grand!! lol

    Team packs would be great, or at least a little consistancey, like a member of a team in each wave, something like that. Oh and strong guy would amazing, has he ever had a figure?

    Oh that Marvel Legends Madrox looked sick in his trenchcoat.

    @ MeanGreen:

    LOL if not Christmas, expect the waves to hit some time in the new year!

    errr..yeah..thanks Hasbro!

    Strong guy had a figure back in 93, but never saw it myself, I only know of it due to ta quick search on figure realm. I have seen a few cool customs though. The idea has tempted me a bit but I figure by the time I buy the parts and put him together that is going to be one expensive action figure. I will hold my breath in vain that hasbro will one day deliver.

    Yeah any Madrox figure should really come with a trenchcoat, most definitely!lol
