i agee 100%. i hope they (hasbro), do not kill the line.

I have always said that Hasbro is killing the line. I am thinking of getting rid of a whole bunch of my Legends too. But then I look at the only 90's FF, Iron Man, X-Men, and Spiderman figures I still have, I wonder If I would regret selling off Legends. The variety of characters Toybiz put out was pretty darn good.

Of the upcoming series, Yellowjacket and Quicksilver dont look too bad, and I am in for a Lord Thor one way or another...The BAF Blob looks really bad so far.

I wish Hasbro would not dilute the line with X3 figures. I also wish they'd focus on true "Legends" and not characters like Xorn (Toybiz started that crap by calling X-23 a legend).

I wish they'd do a BAF Super Adaptoid!

I put three cases of these out at work the other night and I do feel they were a big step up from the first wave. The only truely horrible figure this wave is Ultimate Wolverine, the head and face on that are just wretched. Lord Thor was actually really nice, he's the only one in the group I shelled out the dough for. She Hulk was tempting, but with Bowen's FS already pre-ordered through Danny I just wasn't feeling all that pressured to pick her up. No variants in any of the cases so I couldn't tell you what the ratio is on these.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Don't worry, in a few months Hasblo will release a cool silver repaint of him or something. That'll be even better, lol.

You guys shouldn't bail so soon on the Marvel Legends line. I've got a strong feeling things are going to pick up very soon.
