just got Legends 5 in the mail, all are very nice figures, I was never a huge fan of Martel or Akeem but I collect every legends figure regardless. I have to say even for people I don't really like Mattel did a great job, I like the Akeem/Africa logo on the back of Akeem its a subtle touch that Mattel does and it really made it look nice to me. Martel's legs were a bit wobbly when they came out of the box, i'm guessing from the way its packaged, the Arrogance spray is a nice tough and believe it or not the thing has a little pump at the bottom that actually goes in and out, again something subtle that is just something Jakks would have never done, the scan on Martel isn't that great to me, but maybe others will like it. Savage is awesome, its the same scan as Defining Moments 1, so some people will be pissed, but the best part is this is exactly the attire I wanted when I heard Savage was gonna be made by Mattel, very nice figure. Bam Bam Bigelow, the jacket is amazing to say the least, the tattoos are awesome, and the attire is perfect, Mattel hit a home run with Triple B. again the pictures aren't that great and theres not a lot, took it with my iPod touch so im sure someone will take better pics soon    |

oh man oh man! grats on the receivings! I can't wait to hurry home today (better remember to pick up my son from daycare) to get my L5 in the mail.
Only got Macho and Martel coming, but hope to take some pics and post my reviews later tonight.

hmm I just noticed from your pic that Bam Bam towers over Savage. I remember Bam Bam wasn't overly tall, and a quick check of the internet has him at 6' 3" - he should be the same height as Randy Savage =/
And Akeem is supposed to be 6'9" but he looks shorter than Bam Bam...I was a bit worried when they had the giant Bam Bam proto at the previous toy show, but they said his height would be fixed.

Akeem is pretty much the same size as Bam Bam, which is weird cause he was billed as 6'9, didn't think about that until you mentioned it
also, Akeem's top is a pain in the ass to get back on after you take it off
update: got it back on, but it is a little snug to get on

I only have Macho coming. I had ordered him the day they listed them, but held off on the rest for a later date, but when I finally got around to ordering the rest they were all on Backorder. So I might just wait to find them locally now. I should have had my Savage 2 days ago, but bexause of the flooding in NJ he's been stuck in a USPS facility for 2 days. He should be here tomorrow though. Anyway enjoy your figures. They look great

I'm wondering if Savage's smaller head is making Bam Bam's height look worse than it really is.

However, besides that, they look awesome!

I didn't realize every single thing Mattels made thus far was completely out of scale and lacking almost all important details. They look great man. I've got my set ordered but I decided to order them along with Defining Moments 3 and Elite 9 Ryder and Orton, so I've got a month or so to wait still. Can't wait to get them! |

Quick question, does Martel have the short pony tail?

Really love that Savage! I wasn't overly hyped on his defining moments figure as I wasn't a fan of that era. This, however, is a Savage I will glady add to my collection.
Thank you for the pics!

Thanks for the pics, can't wait til my RSC order should be here hopefully tomorrow or sat. Really looking forward to the Beast from the east, also ordered Macho but ended up picking up a allstar macho after I ordered so its pretty much the same fig....dang I ended up getting every Macho with the same headsculpt. Hopefully the next Macho release will have a new sculpt and him wearing pants/tights.
