New Marvel Legends Pre-Orders – Fantastic Four Wave and Spider-Man Wave

New Marvel Legends Pre-Orders - Fantastic Four Wave and Spider-Man Wave

Taylor Swift as invisible woman? George Clooney as mr fantastic?

Really looking forward to Dr. Doom. White Rabbit, too...still boggles my mind that we have a figure of her, lol.

BTW, why is She-Hulk grey? Is that a thing now in the comics?

Ha! Can't un-see that now.

The Fantastic 4 one's look good. I wish marvel would get on with the new Fantastic 4 movie.

They are definitely going full speed ahead on FF and X-Men, but they gotta work it into the MCU, and I'm sure it's hard to slide into the narrative. Especially now that so much has moved past petty little baddies like a pissy 3rd world dictator or a genocidal terrorist. Doctor Doom or Magneto will seem like little fish compared to the likes of Thanos, Dormammu, etc (yes, I realize Doom is the most dangerous yada yada yada, but the MCU will water him down like they've done all villains).

Why isn't Vulture listed in the OP?

Me three months ago:

"Glad about classic Vulture, but I'm secretly hoping he will come with an alternate head for the Blackie Drago version... I think I'm dreaming..."

So I guess I must be dreaming! I may criticise Hasbro sometimes, but I have to acknowledge when they get it right...

However, also me three months ago:

"I hope Shang-Chi comes with his robes"

I guess you can't have everything! He does have many hands and two sets of nunchuks though!

I dont get the hate for the video game Spideys. They look cool.

Doom looks rad.

They do, but I think people like it better when there's some variety, so Hasbro might have been better off splitting them up across multiple waves instead of both together in the one. As is they're two Spider-Man figures with another third technical Spider-Man figure with the Superior Octopus in a wave that only has six figures.

Not only that, but the velocity suit has no basis in the comics (that I'm aware of, I know there's a game tie-in comic but that's not the 616 Spidey). In fact, I would bet money the velocity suit is one of the least used suits in the Spider-Man PS4 game, they would've been better off giving us a Bag-Man or Electro-proof suit figure!

I use it. It's one of my favorites in the game but I don't need a figure of it.

Yeah, that's her current look in the comics. At least until January where she gets a new look ... back to green, and wearing a purple two piece bikini.

I believe the grey look happened after Civil War 2, where she had been put into a coma.
The Velocity Suit was specifically designed for the game, by Adi Granov - the designer of the Iron Man suit in the first movie.

Got the entire wave for Super Skrull, Ben & Doom, sold off the rest. Bought a extra Thing figure for the SS heads & got a few more SS heads on ebay plus some Paladins off ebay for $11.66 each & made my own generic Skrull squad since who knows if Hasbro ever plans on making an army builder generic Skrull soldier.

I also replaced Kl'rt's lower legs with Captain Universe's lower legs & have em a paint job. Now Kl'rt is as tall as 80th anniv Cap n Ironman.

I managed to do some black wash in the Thing... now he lost some of his Cheetos color.
What you guys think? (My paint skills are "rupestrial" at best)...

It's definitely a notable improvement. It is unfortunate that Hasbro was willing to do such a nice wash on the original Walgreens Thing but this one just has yellow splotches that, as you said, give him the appearance of a Cheeto.

Thanks man!

Wow. That came out BEAUTIFULLY! I was passing on the FF wave, but looking at this, I might pick up Thing and do the same. That looks pretty good.

Thanks!
I recommend do it, doesn't take so much work and the results are very good.
Start at the back of the figure, so you can see how it will look without fear.
