Marvel Legends Age Of Apocalypse 6" Morph Figure Video Review And Images

I think people are complaining about Morph, and the others in this wave not getting any other accessories or parts becauseDark Beast, the biggest figure of the wave, comes with extra hands. Sure those extra hands arejust a repaint of the same hands that came with the regular-release Caliban Beast, so the given reasoning doesn't line up.

Morph could probably benefit from a repacked/straight up rerelease of an extra head from another figure or Jean or Natea TK blast power display or WildChild extra hands or fire effects for Sunfire.

I'm not really understanding the requests for more head sculpts with this figure. He's morph; he can be anyone and any similarly-sized figure head will fit. Reminds me of the Walgreens Mystique figure, where just about everything I read considered the Rogue/Mystique head that it came with to be lame and otherwise pointless. Hasbro just can't win with its customers.

Anyway, it's a character people have been asking for for years now. We finally have it. With the amount of originals in this wave (even if they're specific to AoA), this is one of the strongest they've released in a while.

I think asking for an additional head sculpt has to do more with the fact that many people aren't happy with the one that he came with.

He's just begging to be a custom fodder. A multiple"expression" faceplate might have helped thisfigure, similar to what TBS did for the Hoth Rebel Trooper.

A decent alternative would be a pretty easy repaint of the Madcap head.

I was going to do this as well seeing it painted looks better now, great suggestion.

Sure. and for the most part it doesn't bug me, since i have enough effect pieces from other figures to give flame effects/fireballs toSunfire, and something i can use forJean. But i can't really duplicate any more heads for morph so it feels like he would've especially benefited from an extra head accessory. I don't know that the characteris in-demand enough to merit a deluxe figure. I suspect we will get an animated series morph in some sort of 2- or 3-pack at some point, or even as part of a wave.

As I have said before, I would love XTAS Morph to be part of a Vintage line with the same heads as the 90's toyline version

I don't think it's that odd. Back in the TB days people were asking for him. It may have been because the Exiles were a big thing at the time and he was the only member to be on all teams.

I suggested earlier in the post of a quick repaint of the Madcap head as an alternative head. Don't know why Hasbro didn't include at least one extra headsculpt (they could have just reused the Madcap) because I totally agree with you that he would have benefited with having at least one more.

The mantle/cape piece looks really awkward to me. It just floats there above him instead of being a part of his costume. And not to beat a dead horse, but the head they did give him, I'm also not psyched on. Looks like Mike McKone and it really should have looked like Joe Mad. Is that raised eyebrow taken directly from the cover to Exiles #1 or what?

Yup, definitely agree that it came straight from this cover. Also answered my question about why the Blink figure had shorter hair. I always remembered AoA Blink having long hair but the figure didn't (but not a big deal to me). But it definitely makes more sense if Hasbro used this image as a reference.

As Shartimus himself said, if you ask Hasbro about the lack of accessories, they will probably tell you most of the money in this wave went to Sugar Man
