Back in
February we first reported to you details for Hasbro's 20th Anniversary Marvel Legends subline coming this year which would include the initial 4 Toy Biz tribute package figures of
Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk and
Toad along with
8 additional figures that would have regular or more normal retro cardback type packaging.
While so far my track record with that report has been pretty good, I did
admittedly get one of those wrong. Initially I did not have
Rhino listed which ended up being one of the 8 figures.
Firelord, Sentinel and War Machine however have now all been confirmed and we have seen hints of a
lab coat which I believe will go with the
Beast figure. We still await confirmation of the
Scorpion figure which should be on a
Spider-Man Retro Cardback and
Apocalypse. Both
Beast and
Apocalypse I believe will be on
X-Men Retro Cardbacks.
The final figure I originally told you would be part of the 8 was a
second Captain America figure, and the reason I bring you this report is because I am now seeing indications that was incorrect. The figure I thought was going to be a second
Captain America is now actually looking to be a new
Ghost Rider figure. I can't tell you specifically what version of
Ghost Rider but it does appear to have a normal figure price which means no motorcycle or car. I also believe this figure will come on a
Toy Biz Ghost Rider Retro Cardback since all the other figures in this subline seem to be on retro cardback. So this is how the assortment appears to break down.
F3475: Yellow 5 - Rhino
F3444: Yellow 6 - Firelord
F3445: Yellow 7 - Sentinel
F3446: Yellow 8 - Apocalypse
F3447: Yellow 9 - Beast
F3448: Yellow 10 - War Machine
F3449: Yellow 11 - Scorpion
F3450: Yellow 12 - Ghost Rider
War Machine was the first figure from
Hasbro to be featured on an
Iron Man Retro Cardback but I don't think it will be the last. The same goes for
Ghost Rider. Of course until Hasbro confirms all of this we will treat this as
RUMOR.

This 20th line is celebrate Marvel legends as a whole.
I was really hoping that with the 80th anniversary, they would have made the original characters that kicked it all off from Timely. Without them there'd be no Marvel. The Sub-Mariner, original Human Torch, and Captain America. Just baffling that the golden age figures aren't done. Then there's Bucky, whose first figure was, frankly, awful, and really needs an update. And they could showcase more golden age characters like the original Vision, along with the Destroyer, Blazing Skull, Miss America, the Whizzer, and Red Raven, by doing a limited box set run on Hasbro Pulse or something like that. Baron Blood, Warrior Woman, U-Man, Tiger Man, Spit Fire....the 80th anniversary is the perfect theme to do these figures.

The thing is they better do the damn thing right and do their research. I swear if they put the damn thing on that ridiculous Sunfire buck I will loose my isht. The Reaper buck at the least or maybe even the Herc buck. He is a bit larger than Cap but the Reaper buck will work.
They wouldn't use the Sunfire buck. I think it's more likely they'll put Isaiah on the older Wolf Cap buck than anything else.

May have been their stated plan but sure hasn't been executed. Or, they're sure taking their time on it. Binary, Madame Hydra, Invisible Woman, for examples- all of them wasted opportunity. I'm especially ticked at MH because she's been wanted for a long time and desperately needed a re-do. I've said this before, but they need to revisit virtually all of the female figures; there needs to be as much articulation and body diversity as the male figures, and they need to scale properly. At any rate I too hope they get it together; an accurate buck would go a long way on your American Dream,

I just can't and won't spend any more $ on weak and incaccurate figures anymore. Its a shame because they have been doing a really great job on the faces ( yes, I know the Sue Richards was awful, but otherwise many of their female head sculpts have been fantastic...no pun intended).
Yeah I feel you on that, I have been standing strong with everyone saying we need a diverse stable of female bucks, so many inaccurate female figures on the wrong buck, but I have some faith in the future since they stated that the Shriek buck was going to be one they planned on making basically the Bucky Cap of the ladies figures, if they did an American Dream on the shriek buck I'd be pleased, but I'm also a sucker for a female figure and I buy em all really, since it's my biggest collection next to symbiotes, the ladies of Marvel, but I do agree they need more variety and let's hope they see that through.

Could Soldier Supreme be a possibility?
