Aside from everyone posting pics here, where's the best source for Marvel Legends news/pics in general and from SDCC? I'm slowly getting sucked into this line haha

Every year at these toys shows I get all excited. Then I call my wife into the room to see all the cool stuff. She gets mad at me because she think this all comes out next week and that we'll be broke. Then I explain every year that this is most likely six-eight months worth of product. She then murmurs to herself and walks away. Enjoy your youth kids.  Hahahaha legit the SAME exact scenario with my wife |

For me so far:
USA Savage!! Pumped for that one
SS Elite Rollins. Thank God I didn't buy the basic
TNF3 Rollins (probably Liz and maybe Alpha too)
Basic 77 Rollins and Balor
Mean Gene whatever he will be now
E52 D Lo and Shamrock
Maybe CW Neville
That's honestly it for me so far

With some parts swaps it may be worth picking up Graves to convert into Million Dollar Corporation or nWo DiBiase  This pic just answered my question of if Balor is different from basic 75 and it is so thanks haha |

These would be perfect as the stands we got in the Elite packaging. Obviously scale would be a little off but I wouldn't care personally

Hoping Sherri is NOT in this because aside from Elizabeth she's the only woman I would really need in my collection.

This is the same for me and I'm starting to realize it more and more. I used to blind pre-order any name that caught my eye and now I don't pre-order anything unless I see it first with all the re-releases lately. I mean I guess thanks Mattel for the re-releases as it's made me more cautious with my pre-orders and now I'm realizing I can usually save 5-10 bucks a figure if I just wait a few months. Yeah I feel that way too but I only collect flashbacks so I get nervous once I miss out on one then that's it. So I tend to buy them all when they release Yeah I'm 90% flashbacks but I buy Styles, Balor, and Rollins. But even look at the new Macho basic... 2 years ago that would have been an instant pre-order... now I'm so glad I didn't because I already have the RSC elite. |

I regret not waiting for certain figures. Some flashbacks can be found for super cheap but after I missed out on elite 16, I was always scared of it happening again This is the same for me and I'm starting to realize it more and more.

I honestly have fonder memories of the packaging of a lot of stuff I had when I was kid than the contents inside it haha. I collect loose as well but keep the boxes/cards of all my figures in a drawer. I carefully slit the tape at the fold and then fold the box until it's flat and then basics and BP's I I try as hard as I can to leave as much of the print in tact.
They put a lot of effort into the box art and Elites especially how they have the specifics on the back is cool.
Side note- I wish they still did the figure line ups like the good old days on the back of the cards. I mean I understand nowadays the internet takes a lot of the fun out of the hunt, but nothing was as cool to me as getting a new ToyBiz Marvel figure and circling which figures I had to find next and also in the series.

I want a white AJ Styles from Elimination chamber really bad. But I also want a white with red, blue with white, and red with white like the exclusive basic but different logos.

Survivor Series 89 Summerslam 89 Survivor Series 90 I think you're my new favorite member here. I'm the only person who ever asks for Survivor Series 89 haha. It's the closest to the 2nd Hasbro and looks a lot like his kids dress up set |
