    Marvel Legends Gamerverse

    That’s because he wasn’t getting bigger at all. He has an adamantium skeleton, which makes it pretty much impossible for him to randomly get taller. He was getting more unhinged and his berserker rages were more common during the time from X-Men #4-25 as he had found out about his memories...

    X-Men '97

    I didn’t really have any pressing questions about why Wolverine liked a supermodel redhead or hated this blonde Sabretooth guy who regularly tries to kill him. The big Wolverine reveal I kept coming back for each month shouldn’t have been that he will firmly judge you based on your hair color...

    Marvel Legends Gamerverse

    It would be really weird for them to have made Gargantos for Multiverse of Madness but molded him in green and only sculpted the details present in Marvel vs Capcom. This looks like a newly designed figure unless they just gave up on the MCU look immediately.

    Marvel Legends Gamerverse

    I love the Bengus sculpt, but surprised they went with that sprite height. I’m not against it, but it’s a little weird it was so accurate when Shuma Gorath looks 50% bigger than he did in game.

    X-Men '97

    Yea, Origins is more of an essential series. It introduced Daken and the overall plot device was that it happened after House of M when Wolverine’s real memories were restored so he kept flashing back to the past to deal with a present day loose end or answer some 90’s mystery. Kept Wolverine’s...

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    Whatever it is, I hope they finally make a Deadpool that’s bigger. He’s listed at the same height as Cap and nearly as heavy. Somehow he keeps ending up on Spidey’s body or Bucky Cap’s body. Going full-Liefield with proportions would keep the maximum line interesting though.

    X-Men '97

    I read Origin as it was coming out in 2001/2002. It got top-billing as a game-changing series, but it was sort of an uneventful monthly so the regulars at my comic shop were kind of down on it. To me, Origin’s main problem was that it just ended up being totally unessential reading. I think...

    Marvel Toys on Sale

    I always have better luck with Ross than Ollie’s, but that’s just because the nearest Ollie’s is 1761 miles away.

    General Marvel Legends

    I bought the Metal shield, the plastic cap shield, both Mjolnirs, the first Iron Man helmet, Black Panther’s helmet, Ant-Man’s helmet, Thanos’s Gauntlet, the Eye of Agamotto, and Magneto’s helmet. I keep the metal Cap shield as a good wall decoration in my living room, but honestly the rest just...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    O Yea, I’m pretty much the same way. Looks like he’ll have a swivel waist and a ball-torso. I guess he’s so tall people just can’t deal with the way he doesn’t have torso joints every 2 cm or something. It’s got me wondering how much anybody might need to bend to sit in a chair.

    X-Men '97

    GameStop’s got them all in stock and marked them up to $27.99 apiece but at least they fixed their system so it gives you combined free shipping on preorders that’re shipping around the same time.

    The Countdown to SDCC 2025!

    Jesse works for Disney/Marvel, not Hasbro. I’d imagine that he’s got to be a lot more PR sensitive about M’bakus and whatnot in that role than he was beforehand. The Man-Ape is probably on a short list with Yellow Claw and Frank Rook that necessitates a walk off.

    General Marvel Legends

    You might wanna try clearing all your stored payment information and re-entering it into the new app. They had a lot of app updates and just the formatting of old info can cause errors. Or maybe just do it through the desktop website. The last time they did a sale the entire sale section only...

    The last figure you want from McFarlane?

    Just a singular solid classic Dick Grayson Robin for Multiverse. Doesn’t seem like a high ask but the last good one for a 6” or 7” line was probably made by DC Direct. Sure would look good with that new classic Batgirl too.

    DCAU/Batman Animated

    Might have to try that. I was hoping to just run into them like the HARDAC wave, but those ended up pretty scarce and never got restocked. My LCS gave up on the last wave of BTAS from the original line so I think all I cared to get was Grey Ghost this time around. They got me with Bruce Wayne...

    General Marvel Legends

    At least there’s no rush for Mephisto. Got my Crossbones/Masque set. Pretty cool overall. Really good updates. Masque is kind of bare bones. Aside from the new heads she’s 100% SHIELD agent body, heads, hands, and even belt. I like the classic masked head a lot- the hair’s got a great sculpt...

    X-Men '97

    Oh weird. Somebody must’ve canceled and let me add Emma Frost that looked sold out. Glad I got the set. Also the Series 1 Gambit rerelease showed up at GameStop. Quietly also went back in stock on Pulse too.

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    Nah, it’s literally just the inferno parts were defective. Like, just about everything molded in clear plastic that isn’t the left wheels ended up being total garbage.

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    Yea, they shipped the whole run with the wrong wheel mold so the flames couldn’t pop in. Then they shipped the correct wheels separately, so you had to replace all the wheels yourself. Then all the right-side replacement wheels were mismolded so they snapped the connector pins right off the...

    General Marvel Legends

    Yea, I’d just request a replacement from Amazon. They ask you to send the other one back within a month or something, but the replacement gets shipped immediately so you can mix and match which figures ended up better before sending a set back.

    SDCC Exclusive Savage Land 3 pack (Rogue, Sauron, Shanna)

    I keep thinking that too! But even I know the custom fodder stockpile is bad when it can offload extra 2008 Shanna, 2018 Sauron and 2020 Rogue to pay for two sets of 2025 Shanna, Sauron and Rogue lol. There’s a future in which my toddler cools it so I get the time to sell my extras off, then I...

    General Marvel Legends

    It’ll probably just depend on how useful the card is. If the in-toy card is really useful for play and the non-toy version of the card ends up rare, then the toys will just end up being a cheap way to get an alternate version of the card since the toy would be easy to resell. If the toys come...

    Best Spider-Man Figures

    I’m still using the Retro one. I wanted to like the RYV one more but I just couldn’t get over its relatively massive noggin and the huge over-bold chest emblem. He’s seems a little bulky for Spidey too. The House of M Spidey’s head looks a lot better on him and matches the paint really well...

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    $80 was about what I was expecting for Mephisto. Dedicated sculpt, tons of accessories, big throne, no reuse, and made to order. Lots better than trying to find a Marvel Select one with a throne. He looks and moves a lot better too. Sure woulda been great if he came free with a Hellcharger...

    General Marvel Legends

    Can’t believe those Magic card ones are gonna be $40. They all look incredible, but that is an absolutely crazy markup. Unless the figures are produced in the smallest numbers ML has ever done, those cards are gonna be worth just about nothing.
