I picked up Hawkeye, Vision and Apocolpse today at Toys R Us.
Great figures and I am glad I found them.

Toyglobe supposedly shipped my figures by UPS, so maybe....just maybe they will arrive shortly.
And by figures, I mean the MLVII set.

Findings have been sort of dull around here lately...
...a couple weeks back I got to TRU on shipment day, and had my pick of a new case of ML 7. My budget was a mere $10.00, and that allowed me the one figure I truly wanted out of the series, Apocolypse. Last week, after a disappointing TRU venture, on my way out, I lifted a top flap to find a lone XMC Archangel. Since then, I think the most "wow, that's different" find was a Joe Fixit on sale for $4.99. Happy with my lone White Shirt variant Hulk, I passed. However, if someone, for some ungodly reason needs it, I might pick it up if the correct offer was made...

I've still got a MOC XMC Archangel lying around that I never got rid of. I bought 2, 1 for me, 1 for a friend. Turns out my friend had it already, so I kept it.

Yippee! I found Scorpion at TRU today, I literally threw my hands up in victory when I saw it. The last time I found a Marvel Legends-type new character was Invisible Woman in the FF set back in August. Before that it was Carnage in April. Hasn't been a good year for me and Marvel.

Can I come play? I got Apoc so I can't complain. Hawkeye might be mine but it depends if the comic shop get them in, I'm in no rush to get it... it'd just be nice. |

Luckily I have naother one on the way...hopefully it won't break On mine, the left bicep and right wrist are immobile. I barely got the leg swivels to work, but now the joints are too loose to pose Scorpion with his tail in the air. The tail works great for balancing the figure, but a "striking" pose would have been a lot cooler. |

Mine's neck exploded when I moved it a little bit. I got the head back on and it has enough left to stabilize it, but it totally sucks.
Also sucks on the Widow and Cap. I'll probably pick up Cap since I dont have one, but the blonde widow is crap. Save for her mini, I havent even SEEN her in comics. Natasha has her own series, is featured WAY more often in the comics, and I WAS hoping to get one extra to mod into a Sydney Bristow ALIAS custom.
Dammit!

Any chance we'd ever see: Omega Red or Maverick in an ML series? I know that they are minor characters, but still  |

I still demand Marvel Legends treatment of Onslaught and Thanos before progressing any further...

Definitely not Maverick, considering he's not even Maverick anymore, and when he was Maverick he was never really popular. Omega Red I could see being made eventually, if only because of his exposure in the early Jim Lee X-Men issues. However, there's quite a few villains that I see being made before him, and they only seem to put one villain per series. Expect Mister Sinister, Baron Zemo, Kingpin and Kang to all get figures before Omega Red, if the line even lasts that long. |

I can definitely see where you're coming from, just wishful thinking on my part. I must say I've influenced by the exceptional artwork of Jim Lee (as per those characters)... thanks for the well thought reply. Also, are any of the old Toy Biz X-Men figures even close to being in scale with current ML or SMC lines? I used to have some and would have been able to compare, but I've since sold them all  . |

The closest old school Marvel toys of a comparable size would be the Onslaught and Avengers lines Toy Biz put out in like 1997. I'd imagine some of the figs (namely She-Hulk) from the older Hulk line might look all right next to your MLs. |

Thanks again for the reply cosmicspidey. |
