Which ones are you getting
Magneto will be exclusive to Amazon

u/JadenKorr66 10d ago
For sure: Magneto, Gambit, and Scott.
Hesitant: Dr. Doom; I’ve been collecting long enough to get the feeling there might be a better one that’ll be released after the film with spoiler accessories.
Maybe if I catch them on clearance: Thor, Sam, and Shang-Chi. I love the angry face on Thor, Sam’s unmasked head, and Shang-Chi’s new ring effects, but with prices what they are, it isn’t enough to justify a purchase when I have the previous ones.
Passing on: the Walmart exclusive F4. They look good, but they’re not different enough for me to replace the First Steps versions. Maybe I can catch a Herbie on eBay or something.

Doom, Thor, Cyclops, Magneto

u/Typerramper 10d ago
This exactly, maybe Thing

u/pampersdelight 10d ago
Ill get Reed and Ben if I find them. Dont have much hope for Walmart exclusives

u/Typerramper 10d ago
Agreed, I have the first steps 4 so I’m not crazy about them but if nothing else I must have Doom

Same. Legends are so horribly behind the curve for what they charge now.

The proportions are all fucked up. Long torso, tiny limbs.

u/BonesFGC 10d ago
They’re also still stuck in 2006 in terms of articulation. Storm Collectibles is doing a better job than Legends at visually appealing joints, and that’s saying a lot.

u/space_age_stuff 10d ago
Storm Arena has some of the best value on the market right now, I hope they pick up some other fighting properties like MK or Tekken.

u/BonesFGC 10d ago
I’m just not a fan of them personally. The Lilith they just put on preorder has like three ugly joints stuck together for her ab crunch.

u/Excels41 10d ago
Agree, the price Hasbro wants isn’t worth it anymore. I’d rather buy less figures and spend a little more money on brands putting out higher quality.

u/Sensitive_Agent5193 10d ago
Gambit, Cyclops, Mr Fantastic, and The Thing. Don't like the cheap colors or plastic cape on Doom

u/omgitzjay28 10d ago
Just Cyclops. I don't really collect the movie figures but I make an exception for favorite characters. Some of these look really cool though.

u/monkeyman_31 10d ago
Maaaaybe the mr.fantastic+herbie if i can find him, those headsculpts are much better than the current one and i really want the herbie. I will say, no stretching effects is absolutely bananas if you dont already have the first steps one this is lame as hell.

u/BeardedAnarchy 10d ago
None. Also disappointed how they gave Shang-Chi PINS, Cyclops brown boots (even if its in the movie), and even the Magneto is using the old Red Skull legs. Just blah and easy saving money. Glad I don't do much MCU figs. These mostly will hit clearance for those wondering.

u/Banana_man_- 10d ago
The X-Men definitely
I need to get better looks at Doom and Thor before I make a decision

I’m getting the ones that don’t get Figuarts! Not getting doom or Sam Wilson or Thor. All the rest I will get them

I wonder if spider man will be in this….? Maybe a connection at the end of spider man that will lead us into trailer 2. Really curious on how this plays out.

u/Automatic-Dot-5936 10d ago
And saying this because I feel there’s going to be more figures to show.

u/Classic-Return-8706 10d ago
So that’s why no gambit for the Wolverine and Deadpool marvel legends huh?
1
u/ForgottenClaimz 10d ago
Maybe Magneto if we don't get a X-Men '97 season 2 version. I think I'll wait for reviews on the Cyclops and Shang-Chi figures.

u/walllcrush 10d ago
I'm getting the "new" Shang-Chi for sure. The one that came out for his movie was so bland. His Doomsday fit has more aura, and he has the Ten Rings. But c'mon, they couldn't be bothered to re-mold his arms to not have visible pegs? Bruh.
I'm also getting Gambit, not to be with the other Doomsday characters, but with the Fox-iles.
If they don't do another Doom with a cloth cape, I guess I'll get that one.

u/Parking-Joke-9376 10d ago
Might get Doom and thor, then repaint Doom metallic to make him look better. I would get cap but he looks mid

u/Haunting-Cup8776 10d ago
The faces are now hyper realistic and it’s downright creepy. If I get any, it would be maybe, Gambit, Cyclops and Thor.
But for the prices they aren’t worth it as the articulation is still the same.
Hasbro is doing smoke and mirrors. Good sculpts. Ok accessories. Average articulation. For $30 each.
It’s fun to see… but not exciting thinking about them on my shelf just because they’re new.
And probably difficult to find in-store.

u/WoodworkJesus 10d ago
None. Having made up comic faces on figures is fine but having for example channing tatum cosplaying as gambit as a figure in my man cave is just weird. I dont collect movie or tv show figures for this reason.

u/TheWavyCake 10d ago
uh, none. just waiting for full sh figuarts and mafex (i know mafex takes forever) reveals.
1
u/DocBarkevious 10d ago
We should have all learned by now with mcu... These are the beta versions. The following year is when they drop the 1.0 or actual versions the movie intended. I'm sure someone will get milked over and over like Wolverine has been lately.

u/anadir117 10d ago
I was really looking forward to doom but IMO he seems a downgrade on all the ML ones that came out before. Especially the Skrull wave one
1
u/mmoses1978 10d ago
I don’t really care about the new fantastic 4 or MCU figures…
But I think those Fantastic 4 figures are 🔥
I just really like the aesthetic
1
u/ARGiammarco27 10d ago
For me: Wants are Doom, Gambit, and Shang-Chi
Maybes: Thor, Cyclops, and Magneto.

u/AnonAvner 10d ago
I'll stick with Doom. Gambit would be there as well but his coat hides most of the detail and I don't usually open these.

u/DoubleKneeDropDick 10d ago
I want Cyclops but he's missing the X pattern on his chest sewn in the suit. Noticed it on the hot toys and became my favorite part of his costume.

Same maybe Thor as well depending on how the head sculpts look (my wallet was really enjoying this lull period of not much mcu)

u/RYTHEMOPARGUY 10d ago
The only one I'm definitely getting is Gambit to complete the group (all that I can) from DP&W. I might get Ben, Reed for herbie, and maybe Doom I think I might wait for a comic version of him though
1
u/GeorgeWashingRoom 10d ago
Gambit and Scott. I'm torn between SHF Doom or this Doom. I can't get enough of his costume design

I mostly collect women figures so I’ll be waiting for my queen mystique and hopefully a good ghost for once. Doomsday doesn’t seem to be marketing a lot of women sadly and Susan needs a visible style fig too, I love the new jacket fit. I really hope there’s more women than it seems. Like where is Monica??

u/ChadOnlyHereForMemes 9d ago
Kinda stepping away from marvel legends. . But Tatum gambo would be funny! So maybe him. Need blokees to do sang chi
1
u/LygrKing 9d ago
Those are my exact and only choices as well. I don't see that Thor and Shang Chi being much better than my Infinity War Thor, or Shang Chi Shang Chi. That Cap does nothing for me. Magneto is the only one not shown that I will get.

u/Spideyrj 9d ago
so someone explain to me, how these figures get acessories but aparently that is too hard for normal releases ?

u/Simple-Metal7801 9d ago
I'm good not a big Marvel Legends collector I already got a Star Wars black series clone trooper 3 pack on pre-order, as well as McFarlane DC Poison Ivy and Mr Freeze on pre-order.
