Marvel Legends Fanstream Response |


The Legends staff was again yesterday with a Fanstream containing much more reveals than I might have anticipated this near SDCC. Learn on for some opinions on these new reveals!

The primary reveal is a shocking approach to wrap up the eighty fifth Anniversary line with a large new Odin determine. Now for Marvel Thor, I have a tendency in the direction of favoring Kirby or Simonson designs and these don’t match a specific a kind of that I can keep in mind, however the vibes are there usually there with a bit extra of a contemporary detailed sensibility. I believe the extra ornate helmet remembers Kirby higher and the ram horn feels a bit extra Simonson. At any fee, the imposing mass works nice right here, although his employees now seems to be a bit comically undersized (ahem). I can image this Odin blasting onto the scene with rays of blinding mild to set proper no matter shenanigans Thor and Loki have gotten as much as. This may drop subsequent week at Pulse and different mainline retailers so he needs to be tremendous simple to get.

I couldn’t care much less a few new Venom determine. Good trying deco and sculpting, however I haven’t seen the film and have lower than zero curiosity as I’m so not a Venom man. Coming quickly to Goal on an unspecified date.

This Professor X is one thing I wished, however in an effort to go together with the 275 group, I in all probability would have went with the gold helmet even when he doesn’t appear to be that a lot within the interiors. I believe the gold would make a nicer distinction to Lilandra too, so I believe I’ll look forward to that on this model of Charles since they closely hinted on the risk and the X-Males 97 model as nicely.

Future has been a prime need for me for some time, particularly as we now have been increase a pleasant Freedom Drive/ Brotherhood of Evil Mutants staff for a bit right here, so it is a should purchase for me. Whereas my most wished Rogue could be ’80s punk with the belts and the virtually mohawk mullet hair or a Silvestri pre-outback period model, this will get me a villain Rogue and Secret Wars Rogue, in order that’s fairly thrilling for me.

This must be essentially the most amazingly lovely determine that’s extraordinarily disappointing to me personally. I can not fault the determine sculpting, the articulation, the paint, the wonderful 3D flame stand, it’s all unbelievable trying. I’ll 100% purchase this. However rattling is it annoying to get one other Jean Phoenix earlier than Rachel. I’m dying to finish my Excalibur staff! AAAARGH! Such lovely frustration.

The Unusual Tales wave emblem was fairly thrilling to me as a result of I really like the bizarre Marvel mystical stuff. That mentioned, I don’t actually have lots of data of those explicit variations of the Spooky characters.

Brother Voodoo seems to be like a stable replace and I do just like the function you can swap out the Eye of Agamotto, however I used to be fairly good with the 2 Brother Voodoo figures I have already got. If they’d made him a basic model, that may be one thing a bit extra interesting to my basic comedian leanings. As it’s, I’m debating whether or not to purchase this or attempt to observe down the BAF half on it’s personal.

I’m a Tomb of Dracula, Gene Colan model fan, so whereas this isn’t my most popular Dracula, I actually just like the look of this determine. I wish to say I learn a ebook with him combating Captain Britain trying like this, in order that wins him factors in my ebook, however this design at all times felt to me like a reference to Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula movie armor, which additionally wins him factors for me. I completely love that they gave him a fang face together with a extra impartial look. Vampire figures should be exhibiting fangs in my ebook. It is a particular pre-order day one determine for me.

Speak about scorching claws! I’m not aware of Hellverine, however I believe I would crack open the Marvel App and study extra as a result of this seems to be fairly enjoyable.

I used to be type of vaguely conscious of the existence of Bloodstorm, but it surely’s a what if kind character that builds off a basic X-Males story, so I’m already type of invested though I haven’t learn any of her books. The determine seems to be fairly slick, although these legs are fairly spindly. Hope the plastic isn’t too delicate there. That mentioned, the portraits look unbelievable and kudos to the staff for doing a pair with totally different ranges of fangyness.

I do know Hellstrom as Son of Devil, however this look is slightly uninteresting for my style. I believe I’d choose the frilly cape from the unique design.

I don’t know a lot about Lilith both, however the design is fascinating sufficient for me to perform a little research.

I didn’t assume I wanted one other Moon Knight, however I do have fond recollections of the gold accented costume, so I do kinda need this.

We’ve been dwelling in a BAF world with Legends for many years now and this sort of BAF nonetheless stings a bit all these years later. I would like a Blackheart, however I believe Dracula might be the one 100% should purchase determine for me for the remainder of the wave. Bloodstorm and Hellverine are type of enjoyable spooky variants I may go for and I do just like the gold Moon Knight, however the remainder aren’t actually calling to me. I don’t know, I may have to simply purchase the BAF off of eBay and Dracula. I’ve a sense it could be cheaper to simply purchase the wave. Total, there was a hell of lots of cool stuff proven at present, however the Blackheart wave has me weighing my choices.
