Marvel Legends Maximum Series

Cue up a Maximum Liefeld Captain America next. Ugh!
How about a Liefeld Thing? I mocked one up awhile back.

Spinny hammer is on my shortlist of accessories I keep browsing Ebay for. You'd think that would be an essential pack in for anything claiming to be a Maximum Thor.


I don't know if I'd recognize an artistic-specific figure style (unless it were something really extreme like a weird Sienkiewicz Moon Knight), but I do know that Parker head looks like an effing idiot. If that's what artist-specific gets me, I'll pass.

So far that feels kind of like the thing for Maximum figures, though. Even the ones I was even kind of interested in lost me when I saw, like, two nearly-identical Spider-Man masks or the absolute weirdest choices for Hulk heads. I may've missed the announcement, but if this line *is* dedicated to artistic-specific sculpts, I've a feeling I wouldn't like those artists' work.

It doesn't help that what's considered Maximum accessories are massive web balls and a random horn.
So it's not for you, just like a lot of collectors here liked stuff I passed on. If I spent a lot of time reading comics I loved as a kid then it's exciting and fun for me to finally get it in plastic. I think there's enough Parker heads out there to meet different tastes.

I love Maximum, it's exactly what I wanted and a lot of effort goes into it. Like Dwight said everything isn't for everyone, this line though, so far, is definitely for me.
