Did that Walgreens exclusive Namor ever come out? I feel like there is a backlog of exclusives that we haven't seen nary a peep about. Any news on what's going on with these?

Walgreens Namor.
Walgreens Punisher.
TRU 3-Pack: Vision, Falcon-Cap, Kate Bishop
Walmart Exclusive: Movie Falcon, Movie Winter Soldier
Target Exclusive: Movie War Machine, Disco Armor Iron Man

Still not seen him, but Fwoosh has a review of the Namor figure up from a few weeks ago.

A lot of them came out in Honk Kong and the UK early. Namor, TRU 3-Pack, and the War Machine Two Pack have been out overseas for a few months now.

Walgreens SHOULD be getting Namor any time now, and Punisher will be in the Fall.

Falcon and Winter Soldier are supposed to be fall as well, most likey to coincide with Civil War DVD release.

TRU 3-Pack has been spotted in Canada, so really any day now.

That wave isn't the strongest one, but I do want classic Electro with the star mask.

I have the SMC Electro with replacement arms. I don't think they can do any better than that.

How many more waves of Marvel Legends are coming this year? The X-Men wave, Civil War wave, apparently this Spider-Man wave now? Am I missing any? Who all is coming in the Spider-Man wave?

Dr Strange wave is the final confirmed one for 2016.

However, Hasbro may have moved up Civil War wave 3 to release a 4th Civil War and 2nd X-Men wave for 4Q.

No alt-hands for Electro is weird...but probably easily fixable. Also weird how Silk gets an un-masked alt-head but not Barton? Loving that Punisher so much and I don't even care that much for the character.

It's the same body that they are using for Ultimate Pete in the same wave, it's also new.

They didn't have a standard teen male body before. So this is probably it.

When I originally saw photos of these dudes I thought the sculpts were meh at best, but seeing a fresh case in person convinced me. Especially since I can never find the goddamn diamond select ones at toys r us no matter how often I check. This will do.

Honestly, Murray's the only one who looks slightly off and even his likeness is still pretty decent.

It looks like Bill Murray got hit slightly by a children's cartoon, but you're right, on the whole the flaws are pretty minor, and they're pretty nice figures all things said. Love the uniform detail.

That AMT/Ertl model is a loving bitch to paint and put together, though.

I like my toys slightly cartoony and that Venkman figure is what I've wanted since I was like...3. I just wish I could get a proton stream at a reasonable price.

I might try making my own. I did this using some crafting wire, white thread and superglue:



Kinda wonder if the same concept with some thicker thread in blue and orange would make a decent simulation of it.

Might give that a go this weekend now that it's on my mind. Guess I'll post results if it works halfway decently.

I just braided fishing wire together. If you are going 1/6th scale, just twist and knot some gauze and it'll look spiderwebbish.

Seconding the Detolfs. Get the LED lighting for them too.

Also that Spider-Man wave Hobgoblin appears to have a Demogoblin head in the package with him. If that's the case I'm gonna need two of that fucker.

I have those also but I just need a single display box for one figure. I found ones that are for American Dolls but have the doll stand permanently attached to the bottom.

The container store has 15" cases. More of a cube shape but should do what you're looking for.

Does Kitty really just come with a random severed Magneto head? I'm also bummed that Iceman doesn't get a sweet ice slide or anything when Cable and Deadpool get guns out the wazoo. Otherwise this wave is tempting enough to have me consider getting back into Legends.

It's for the recent red skull Onslaught figure, to turn it into the original Onslaught.
