So has anyone gone for anything on the Cosmic Legions preorder?

I’m thinking of getting Zeeri, it’s a good looking figure.

I've got two all ins and am thinking about which legion builders to buy. I like the sentries bubble and was thinking of buying some to put my extra ML heads in

I got the science officer alien dude mostly out of curiosity. They finally announced a bonus head for that one the other day.

I went with an all-in and then later got an extra sentry and bug drone, but these new head reveals have me questioning if I want some extra science officers and tech minions. It would be easier to cop a few more figures if the shipping wasn’t so crazy expensive; just adding a few figure stands to a two-figure order shoots shipping up almost $20.

My first posts in the thread are from ‘09, wishing for a good Blink figure. At least I finally got that ML release a year or so ago. :unsmith:

So I was able to find a NIB Blitzway Stantz, Venkman, and all the parts of a Spengler from an eBay seller who was parting him out. But it feels like Zeddemore is going to be the one that’s absolutely impossible to find.

Making a dedicated three pack with just Peter, Ray, and Spengler felt like a really weird move on their part.

I got the payment request for PAK Sephiroth and SHF Harley today after a Persona statue got hit with a delay until March. Only Red and Jessie left to go now, I wasn't interested in the other ones they've put up.

Speaking of Ghostbusters, where's the Phoebe figure in the Plasma series? She shares my daughter's name so I figure it'd be a really fun gift but I can't confirm if it's been released anywhere.

Phoebe will be in the next wave, apparently. Probably with a bunch of spoilery film figures.

Yeah, I was thinking about getting a Sentry 12 pack but now might get a few extras of the others, too. I still can't get a straight answer as to whether the Sentry bubble will fit on the science officer body

Off topic, but: For all you Timothy Olyphant fans, a great and underrated performance of his was as himself on the short-lived but excellent sitcom “The Grinder,” where he has a friendship/rivalry with Rob Lowe’s actor character. That show had a great cast all around, but he stole a lot of scenes.
