Thanks marino13, I tend to only go for these figures that I really want to get; as they're quite expensive here in Australia I stick to ones that pop for me and my brother. Not following me anymore eh?  I was, but when you didn't follow me back I assumed you weren't cool with it. I usually wait till someone else follows me first, but I made the exception this time. You ruined it!  If ya wanna be friends, you know what to do. This gave me big laugh...kudos mate! |

so I came home on my birthday this weekend & the lady friend def had a few surprises for me. among them was 2 BAF's....
- she got them @ my local comic shop that I frequent every week(behind my back!-very sly move indeed)
Those are a thing of beauty.. One collecting regret I have is not collecting the Marvel Legends line.. Not one time have I seen a Marvel Legends X-Men character and thought "man what a sh*tty figure".. They've all been spot on. I remember how difficult it was for me and my mom back in the 90's searching for that original ToyBiz Blob.. I loved that toy so much as a kid.. Mom finally found me one for Christmas.. Blob and Rogue. Moral of that story is your Blob action figure has a special place in my heart.. If I ever run across one, I'm snatching him. YOLO. |

collected ML through thick and thin.....and NEVER looked back. Lots of the Hasbro guys have replaced inferior TB versions but there are many that will never be made again.
Im especially glad I didn't pass on the Ronan, Red Hulk & Ares waves!!

Joker I picked up those two figures today. I think I just need to still find the Widow and the SW figure for you.
That Marvel Select Cap is sweet. TRU is listing a masked one for preorder. I think Falcon also. And speaking of Flacon I picked up a 3.75" Movie version today.

ur totally right about never saying "what a sh*tty figure" when talking about a marvel legends x-men...or most characters in that line for that matter 
not trying to be a dick, but the blob I have in that pic is actually the hasbro BAF blob (came out way more recently, a few years ago), although I do know which one from the 90's ur talking about...my comic shop had the 90's blob as well & sold it a few weeks before they got this BAF one in. had I known u wanted one so bad, I could've snatched him for u

on the topic of MLs Hasbro need to revisit? Scarlet Witch needs to be redone in the worst way.

I also wouldn't object to seeing Hasbro taking another stab at Wonder Man. The ML 11 one is WAY too puny to be honest. Every time I look at my Ares BAF I thank the stars I bit on the wave......awesome f*ckin sauce. I would buy any Ares out there.....which is ML & SHS so far......hanging for the MU version!! |

Scarlet Witch, worst figure, ever.
If not, it's certainly high on the list.

How Hasbro can legitimately think Widow is not a sought after figure is ridiculous. "Oh, we're sorry. You want to have a full Avengers movie roster? Pshhh..." |

But SW is certainly up there, and to be honest, most of the female Toy Biz figures aren't impressive. That weird neck joint (see series 8 Black Widow as an example) gave them all a cheap, non-human look. Let's just hope that the other remade figs aren't as tough to snag in retail as Widow. |

I bought the Movie Captain America tonight, love the figure. I was also able to go see the movie as well, loved it too. Great film, I really like the Marvel select Captain America too, it looks great. If the price is right I may pick it up as well.
I believe I have the right leg, of the build a figure, if anyone wants it PM me. I also have the right arm from the Spiderman series BAF. I would be willing to trade both of them.

It's certainly my favorite Cap Legends figure. |

Yes, the neck joint looked ugly. I passed on buying the Widow several times, until years later, when I picked her up at a comic show. |
