Question about Hasbro ML

Today arrives my Astonishing Cyclops, my first Legends from Hasbro and I see than he`s really small in comparation with the Toy Biz line.

All Hasbro line is smaller???

Don't take it personally, DB... it's hard to get much interest in Marvel Legends or other toy lines on this forum.

For what it's worth, yes, SOME of the Hasbro Legends are smaller than ToyBiz's average Legends figure... for example, I just got the Silver Surfer and Namor from Hasbro's FF series, and they're nicely sculpted but too small.

But some Hasbro Legends are not small at all... the King Thor figure from Hasbro's Blob series, for example, is LARGE.

Thanks Pym !! I have now 6 Hasbro Legends more and yes.. are a little small than ToyBiz.
Toy Biz line is better 1000 times!!

The current Legends Hulk Fing Fang Foom wave has huge figs.

A lot of the ToyBiz Legends weren't in scale with each other. For example the first Namor figure was gigantic when compared with Black Panther, Silver Surfer etc. The first Toy Biz Cyclops Figure was on the large side as well. Hercules from Hasbro is larger as well. The line itself hasn't really been consistant scale wise from either company.

You have reason. Allways exist figures more or less tall but the line of Hasbro is smaller.
The action figures of DC are great but I hate the disproportion. In one line Robin is more tall than Superman.

The only way to display is for series, not for group of heroes.

By the way, smaller o tallest, I really love the Legends & I want all !!!

But Mr. X is right... the Hasbro Hulk Legends figures (Fin Fang Foom waves) are very large. I just got the Wendigo, and I think it's as tall as ToyBiz's Sasquatch (will have to get him out of storage, to be sure... but these are definitely large figures!)

I don't like it when toys or statues are out of scale with one another, either. The way I usually deal with this is by putting the undersized figures in back, for a little "forced perspective." That makes the display look more natural.

The problem is when your favorite Hero is undersized.
