The New Marvel Legends West Coast Avengers Boxset Up For Pre-Order - Plus Other WCA Based Figures To Consider

The New Marvel Legends West Coast Avengers Boxset Up For Pre-Order - Plus Other WCA Based Figures To Consider


Jay Cochran - May 25, 2023
Yesterday we told you about the newly announced Amazon exclusive Marvel Legends West Coast Avengers Boxset from Hasbro which is now available for pre-order on the Amazon website for $124.99. This set includes Hank Pym and Classic Mockingbird which are being released for the first time in the line along with slightly modified re-releases of Silver Centurion Iron Man, Tigra and Spider-Woman.

From what I can tell the only difference between this Tigra and the most recent one Hasbro released is the orange on the skin has been toned down. The previous Tigra came with two headsculpts where this one only comes with the more angry looking one.

The Julia Carpenter version of Spider-Woman was last released in the MCU Molten Man BAF wave. This new version has a new headsculpt and comes with closed fisted hands that were not included with the original figure. The original figure did have an extra hand with a web shooting out of it that is not included here.

The Silver Centurion Iron Man was previously released as a Walgreens exclusive. This new version has white on the arms and legs as opposed to silver and the eyes on the helmet are blacked out. The shoulder pads look like they may have also been slightly modified to give it a more comic accurate look than that of the Walgreens one. This Walgreens one had a few more replusor type effects included, but you do get the standard versions with this new figure.

For those who are looking to round out their West Coast Avengers team we would also recommend you check out these figures which are still available as well:

The recently announced Hawkeye with Sky-Cycle. Hawkeye was a founding team member and for most of the time the team's leader. While Hawkeye has been released multiple times in the line over the years, this is the newest version and you also get the cool Sky-Cycle which was also featured in several issues of West Coast Avengers.

Classic Wonder Man which is available now. This version of Wonder Man was featured in the original 4-issue WCA mini-series. Granted he wore his traditional black and red outfit more in the series which Hasbro has done a version of, but that is an older released figure and you will likely have to go to the secondary market to pick that one up if you don't have it already.

If you want a more classic looking Iron Man figure for the team then we would recommend getting the Tony Stark (A.I.) figure which was released in the Mr. Hyde BAF wave. While there have been other Iron Man figures released by Hasbro in the Marvel Legends line over the years that would work for this team, the AI one has that classic yellow and gold look that fits the comics and is still available at a reasonable price. When WCA first started, it was actually James Rhodes under the helmet and not Tony Stark who at the time was wearing the classic yellow and gold armor. Later on Stark resumed the role of Iron Man and was also part of the team.

So that rounds out the original team members, however since this new boxset also features Spider-Woman who didn't join the team until issue #70, we also recommend checking out these figures. Note the art on the packaging for this new boxset is NOT comic book accurate. It says issue #60 on it but the artwork is actually loosely based on issue #1 Vol 2 of the series. They replaced Wonder Man with Spider-Woman and Hawkeye with Hank Pym.

Pym who at the time had retired from the super hero life had been around off and on pretty early on in WCA, but didn't really officially join the team and start wearing the red jumpsuit until around issue #20. He still didn't want to resume any of his previous super hero identities such as Ant-Man, Giant Man or Yellowjacket which is why he wore the jumpsuit as opposed to a traditional super hero costume.

Anyway getting back to the other figure recommendations for the team, I recommend the newest USAgent figure Hasbro released. Walker was originally forced on the team by the government in issue #44. He and Hawkeye didn't always see things eye-to-eye.

Scarlet Witch and White Vision. The newest White Vision figure Hasbro released on a Toy Biz Retro cardback is currently available on Amazon for $15.72. These two played a significant role on the team during the VisionQuest storyline that began in issue #42 and explains why Vision turned white for a time.

It's very tempting when I see these figures marked down this much. I've been contemplating the Grey Hulk 2-pack for some time but just can't bring myself to justify the purchase. I've also been looking at this 5-pack but find that a lot of these characters are very niche, at least for my collection.

I don't get why Amazon.ca doesn't mark down the exclusives as drastically or frequently as .com...theprice I pay for living up here I guess...

The stockpile/orders of merch in Canada is considerably less than in the USA, so there's more incentive/urgency to move stuff down there as opposed to up here. We get about 1/10th to 1/20th of the quantities they get stateside.It DOES happen up here, but it's a lot less frequently.

This was my favorite set for the year just behind the Wolverine set. Every figure was an improvement on the previous one except for that frustrating Iron Man. The color was more comic accurate but they could have and should have improved that stupid neck articulation situation.

Anyone that was on the fence about this, I was presently surprised by how much I liked every figure in this set. This price is definitely worth it now.

I ended up being able to wait until now. I picked up two sets and can't wait to get them!

I know that everyone's focus is on Prime Day at Amazon, but was just going to drop a mention that there are some decent deals on Kids Warehouse right now also. I don't go out there too often, but saw some decent prices for Marvel stuff. Plus they have a promo with $5 off $50 or $10 off $100. It's mostly stuff that we've seen on clearance before, but still some good stuff at nice prices. Lots of Legends around $10, including some potential army builder and/or generic types.

Been waiting on Ronan to get a price drop for a while so thats nice to finally see. Unfortunately Ive blown way pass my budget this month so..Im gonna go cry now.

Originally was only going to pick this set up on discount but I'm slowly being swayed to buy it now lol. After watching JayC's review I never would have realized that Hasbro altered the Silver Centurion's shoulder pads to stick out a little further.

I'm dubious but just got an email updating delivery to Aug 10....
