While searching for his missing father, Jesse Alexander, Sam fell off his skateboard and hit his head. When he woke he discovered Gamora and Rocket standing over his hospital bed. They too were searching for Jesse and his Black Nova helmet. After discovering Jesse’s helmet, Gamora and Rocket began to teach Sam how to use a Nova helmet. Sam was trained by both Gamora and Rocket on how to properly use his helmet in order to one day live up to his father’s legacy.

Pros
Good Head sculpt
Good Articulation
Cons
weak character
Overall
Nova is a figure that I personally do not care about. My Marvel Legends collection does not go this deep and this one has very little appeal for me. As a figure it has good articulation and a nice sculpt and stands well on it’s own. I hope we don’t start seeing “kid” versions of character, I’m not down with that concept at all. Easy pass for me.

First up is Drax!
Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 Drax Photo Shoot - The Toyark - News
would love to see a comparison with the original Drax.
Oh...and he comes with a bazooka...which like the large weapon that came with Starlord in the first movie wave, is likely to be a plot device of some sort in the upcoming film...
I want to get him to complete the team! All the Guardians are my favorites! I wasn't able to find him though for the first movie. So definitely a must buy for me. Great pics!
Ain't nothing wrong when Mr Clean goes mean.
I will be picking up Star Lord, Drax, and Yondu.
Awesome! Star Lord is a perfect improvement to the first figure! I also want to get Drax and Yondu
Why can't every wave be like this...

I know what you're talking about with the gummy material. The only figure I had from the first movie was Starlord, and when he came in the mail and was all bendy I was not happy...and ended up getting rid of him. I didn't know the other characters had that problem too. It's good to see that it has been addressed because it was ridiculous.
And Vance Astro....

The paint apps on my Vance were a bit sketchy. I would say the low point of the wave for sure. Still going to look decent on the shelf because of the hearty build and pretty, glittery blue paint.
Is there a reason why the blue guy wields Cap's Shield?
Looks much too old/flat-faced to be Vance. Is that Radioactive Man's head?
This is a must own figure...
Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 Angela Photo Shoot Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 Angela Photo Shoot - The Toyark - News
I hate that Marvel felt the need to tie Angela to a main character but it's been a LONG time since she got a figure so I definitely want this one. I preferred when she first showed up and they vaguely left it open that her Spawn origins were there she just couldn't quite remember.
"Not only is the head sculpt just amazing and the paint application on point she is an awesome character with deep history in Image Comics."
- Fixed...
Great photos as always...although the review itself really missed the mark and sees things through rose colored glasses on the cons section. Angela here has a couple a, mostly with all of the loose pieces on the figure (the belt, armor on the arms) which dangle loosely on the figure and cause the figure to be twitchy and difficult to work with when striking a pose. The huge hair piece on this her can also cause articulation issues, both with the arms and with the fact that she can barely turn her head or do anything with the neck swivel.
Cool figure, glad to have her in my collection, but she could have been executed a bit better.
I know a lot of you have been waiting for this figure for a long time.
Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 Darkhawk Photo Shoot - The Toyark - News
So I checked in at a local walgreens today since that's where everybody is finding this wave and the only figures they had were the 2 Starlords. I asked an employee if they had any more in the back and they told me that somebody else had already asked earlier and bought all of the other guardians figures they had. Disappointing as usual.
Darkhawk is a character I've always had a fondness for and yet has little to no toys out there, besides this new legends I'm pretty sure his only other figure is the MU one. He's a definite get for me but I'm not too impressed with how they did his wings so it's not a must-have. The wings aren't bad but I feel like maybe they could've done better.
