I'm told it's a complete spoiler. Don't know for what exactly as I opted not to find out.

Um, can these guys really be called Marvel Legends already? And I know teenage boys are supposed to be all gangly but this is ridiculous. It looks like they were all put to the rack.

Yes I've seen the pictures. Someone dropped the ball. If I were Geoff Johns or Dan Didio, I'd a been rampaging through the marketing department demanding a pound of flesh.

On the one hand, I think it's nice that Marvel has enough faith in Young Avengers to even do action figures, but on the other hand I agree that they're still a little new to be considered "legends"... even though they are just about the only Marvel characters I like anymore 
Some people are like slinkys: not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when you knock them down a flight of stairs

The series is doing well enough to warrant figures in a regular ML release, I suppose... but it seems the main reason for the boxset at this point is because Heinberg's name is attached to the book. And I'm disappointed in those figures... the pics I'd seen of them in the packaging looked pretty good. But what, did ToyBiz have a bunch of those awful Scarlet Witch thighs they needed to recycle?

Marvel Legends wave 12 (The Apocalypse Series) has finally hit the Northeast. I'm not going to be getting the whole wave, as I don't care for the giant Apocalypse BAF, and refuse to buy an X-23 ( :rolleyes: ). But the Sasquatch is a really nice sculpt, and I'm very happy to have an Iron Fist... although I can't get the floppy "flaming fist" attachments to stay on for the life of me. The "Astonishing" Wolverine is a nice surprise, also, but those three (and possibly the variants for IF and Sas) are going to do it for me for this wave. B!tc# time: Did we really need variants for FIVE out of the six figures in this wave?! besides the "official" variants-- unmasked Wolverine, bald Bishop and Iron Fist repaint (red and yellow, from the end of the PM&IF series)-- there's a white "Snowbird as Sasquatch" and a repaint of X-23 (WTF?!!). Overkill. I hope this isn't ToyBiz's attempt to milk it while they've got it, but it sounds like there'll be more of the same in the Wal*Mart exclusives and the Mojo wave.

They're cancelling the X-baby pack-ins because of the skyrocketing cost of petroleum, thus plastics.  The war on terror has turned ugly...

Hey! Doom Patrol! Probably the last year Bandai's gonna make toys fot the TTGo! series, but what a way to go out! The 5" superposeable Raven and Starfire look good, too... Not completely sure about Raven's "soulself" yet, though. Check 'em out for yourself at AFI\'s Toyfair Bandai links.

Unfortunately, it appears so. A quote from AFI's ToyFair coverage of ToyBiz: Wave 14- Mojo Build-a-Figure: FA Iron Man, Longshot, Luke Cage, Falcon, Baron Zemo, and Psylocke. (X-Babies will not be in this wave- cost of oil is just slamming the extras this year!)

Legion toy fans who passed up the SA Superboy because of the stupid grin are in luck. DCD is releasing a "classic" Superboy Prime in wave 3 of their Crisis on Infinite Earths line-- basically the SA body with a new headsculpt . I'll probably get it and pack the grinning loon away. :rolleyes: And yeah, the Wal-exclusive wave of ML's look sweet. They may be hitting stores as early as next month. Keep your eyes open...

So I spent my lunch placing my DCBS order-- as if DC wasn't getting enough of my money with their comics, they had to solicit this, from the Adam Hughes Women of the DCU line of busts: ![[Linked Image]](http://www.dcbservice.com/images/large/APR060309.jpg) I can't quit you, Harley...  I hope we get a classic Babs Batgirl in this line...!

I've had to quit looking at the figures and statues when I do my order. Just can't afford it.
