According to Hasbro's Steve Evans, the
Marvel Legends Retro 3.75 line is ending, at least for now. The last wave to come out will be wave 8 which includes Dr. Doom, Luke Cage and Spider Woman. Those are available for pre-order now from our sponsors
BigBadToyStore.com and
Entertainment Earth.
Yeah been finding these figures at the Dollar Store, found quite a lot, and right at the time they announced this "rest" seems like the bean counters pulled a b-line on these.
honestly these figures would have sold far better from the jump had the price point been more like what the discounted price is, at least sell these for 10 bucks MSRP, but here in Canada these were 18 to 20 bucks , nobody wanted to pay that, so they just waited it out till the eventual sales, which were plenty to be had, and now only 4.99.
I found the whole Thor/Green Goblin Marvel Legends Retro wave at my local Ollie's discount store today. $4.99 each.
Never understood the purpose of these but I will say, they were very colorful. If hasbo took the time and energy from some of these off-shoots and put them to them consistently to the Legends line....
Not surprising, a retro line with no nostalgia links wasn't going to last. Hasbro are probably also doing it to focus on their new Epic Heroes line
Glad to hear.
These Happy Meal Marvel Legends were an insult to the much higher quality and expansive Marvel Universe lines legacy.
I never bought the idea that these were for nostalgia purposes. The old MU line hit classic suits as well had excellent articulation.
So good riddance to bad figures
Just do Secret Wars style.
If they're showing up at dollar stores..............yah, the line has failed.
