General Marvel Legends

[Ru1977]

Great point. "Hey, it's the Millenium Falcon!" isn't a plot and I'm tired of movies that think that suffices.

And you know, if anything, maybe they could use the boost these days. "Oh, damn, just saw the new figures for that upcoming Marvel movie; I hadn't realize THAT character was gonna be in it. Maybe I'll see it in the theater after all." I'm completely fine with figures spoiling stuff like that, as opposed to seeing Hulk rescue Iron Man in the trailer for Avengers.

This one hits hard as an MCU dude. There's obviously demand out there Hasbro! Fill the holes!

Exactly. It's like going to an orgy, I want to fill as many holes as possible!

What's a guy gotta do to fill his holes with 6 inches of plastic around here?! Sheesh!

Just give me Cassandra Nova and some mix of Gambit/Blade/Elektra/X23 and I will be happy

Same except add Misty Knight/Echo/Valentina/The Hood/Ironheart's demon armor/Kahhori/The Warriors Three/Ancient One/Billy Maximoff/Baby Franklin/Darcy Lewis/Foggy Nelson/Karen Page

I still want:
Cassandra Nova
Elektra
Laura
Gambit
Blade
Sleeveless Wolverine
Nicepool with Dogpool (yeah, I doubt this is possible)
BAF: Peterpool

Fun bonuses: Paradox as BAF, Ladypool, Kidpool, or Human Torch

I realize this list is 18 months out of possibility. But I still want it.

The MCU drought really makes me sad. The last proper wave we got - was it Love & Thunder or Disney+ Infinity Ultron before PFP came in and just cratered sales? It wasn't the MCU figs' fault!

I feel dumb but what is PFP? When I think of what might have caused MCU figure sales to crater I think of the Eternals

 

[Ru1977]

Plastic-free packaging.

My greatest shame in collecting will always be that I enthusiastically paid full price for the Eternals figures.

 

[Chooch555]

If you liked the figures and/or the movie I don't know why you'd feel shame. I buy a shitload of things at full price that go on discount later, but I wanted them and I enjoy them so no harm no foul.

LOL, not only did I buy the whole wave at full price initially, I also doubled, tripled and quadrupled down when I started finding them $5-$7 each. I've got so many sets that it's ridiculous. Same with Kro when he got under $10. Same for the store exclusive Ajak and Thena. LOL!

I'm not even a big MCU figure collector, but when this wave came out I thought that it was some of the best work that Hasbro had ever done. I also am someone who legitimately enjoyed the movie and was quite surprised by all of the negative reaction.

 

[Justice]

I agree on the figures. I'm always a sucker for a group of figures in similar costumes but just with different colors, like the Power Rangers. These Eternals scratched that itch for me and it was fun to build out the team.

I also really enjoyed the movie.

I think it was also the lukewarm reception of Ant Man and Marvels films, which Hasbro did put effort and budget into.

I still love my BAF Kathryn Newton. Underrated in my circles.

 

[joshsquash729]

Cassie is one BAF I never picked up, and honestly keep forgetting exists. I'd love to say I'll just wait for the inevitable regular-sized version, but I'm not sure if anything is inevitable anymore (aside from Thanos himself). Just don't know if I like the character enough for her to take up that much space on my shelf.
