It's Drew's lucky day!

Check out the new action figures here: EDIT: This page has been taken down, presumably because it contained major X3 spoilers. (http://www.superherohype.com/news.php?id=3632)

Marvel Legends Series 14--Mojo Series includes Longshot, and once you collect them all, you can assemble your own Mojo figure!

I hope it's based on the Art Adams drawing from the Marvel Handbooks. That's the creepiest one ever.

I'd heard the rumors about Longshot in ML 13, but it's nice to have it officially confirmed. :) And Mojo is cool, but puzzling... he's big, yeah, but not so big that you should need 6 or 7 pieces to put him together- he's not like a Sentinel. Still, really stoked notnetheless; we'll wait and see.

Other than that, really looking forward to the regular Hobgoblin figure for the Spidey line, and I'm intrigued by the monsters box set... I'd love for that to be Dracula, the Werewolf, Frankenstein's Monster, and the Zombie, but I think they're more likely to just rerelease Man-Thing, Ghost Rider, etc. with some new heads or something.

Statues are art and are meant to be admired! Dolls are toys and are meant to be played with! :)

Don't mention Heroclix, don't mention HeroclixThey don't even belong in the same room as statues or action figures. Heroclix. Glorified D&D if you ask me.

Yeah, but they did the same thing with Apocalypse, and he's not that big. In fact, at last year's International Supervillain Weigh-In and Renaissance Fair, Mojo weighed more than 'Lypse. I had a C-note riding on the Lips-man, 'cuz I knew all their mechanical parts weighed about the same, so I bet on the "muscle weighs more than fat" principle, right? Turned out that inside A-Poc's smooth criminal suit, he was just a shrivelled old man. Y'know what's inside Mojo's fat layer? ...More fat. Y'know what's under that? ...About 2 miles of intestines filled with rotting Sloppy Joe.

You mean you built yourself your own gameroom for them?

So does this mean that Vengeance and Phantom Rider are in the Ghost Rider movie, since they are in the movie figure assortments? 'Cause that would be sweet!

There should totally be a Capwolf variant.

I'd pay extra for that.

WTH! They give Longshot an action figure, but not Dazzler.:rolleyes:

Probably because Longshot is more deserving.
:D

But don't feel bad- they like to throw in at least one oddball character per wave. Lots of longer-tenure X-Men haven't gotten figures yet, like Havok, Polaris, Banshee, Cannonball, etc.

For real. Dazzler was a landmark title when it was released.

(awaits tomatoes of Dazzler hate)

That, and her disco look would actually make for a really cool action figure, especially if they gave her some skates so I could roll her around my hardwood floors. :D

Don't feel too bad. It was just a list. No pictures. I'll draw some for you later, though. You like anatomically-correct action figures, right?

The series was Psylocke, Kitty, Marvel Girl, Polaris, and, um, Clea, right? With chase First Appearance Marvel Girl (Jean Grey)? Then, yeah! Sure!

I'm not too interested in a Mojo figure. I saw a picture of a Spiral figure somewhere. I can't wait to get my Domo kitty ! :p

What, for X3? Glad I didn't look at that part, then. Spoilers rarely bother me, but I think in this instance, I'd like to stay in the dark.

Wish list:

Havok (classic black costume)
Polaris (Neal Adams emerald green or Dave Cockrum Shi'Ar costume)
Non-furry Beast (black & red costume)
Banshee
Classic Storm (Cockrum costume)
Marvel Girl (Jean Grey -- green skirt)
Better Iceman sculpt
Gladiator, Fang & Oracle
Thunderbird
Good list.

I also want Rachel and Kitty very much so. I wish the Storm variant had come in the correct outfit for the hairstyle. And I would love one of Dani and Karma and Cannonball and Magik and all the New Mutants.

And I want it now!

Good suggestions. Wish costume for Kitty and Rachel though?

Also want a Dazzler (disco version).

It's a shame they do so many Wolverine figures and very few of the other X-Men. :mad:

Kitty, I would like in her most popular Blue outfit. Failing that, her second Excalibur one. Her new one is too boring.

Rachel, the red phoenix one springs immediately to mind. Unlike some people, I'm not entirely opposed to her current one. It's terribly impractable, but it doesn't look too bad on her. Third choice, hound leather with the studs.

Dazzler would be pretty cool too. I know it would get several posters excited.

There wasn't any Revolution figures were there? Those were my possibly my favorite costumes for everyone, especially Betsy, Nate, Piotr, and Ororo.

I wouldn't trust the validity of that... some of the characters don't match up with the other rumors (particularly imbd). Though all we have atm are rumors so, who knows?

Have you seen the "Marvel Legends: Walmart exclusive" line, apparently Kitty is in that!

It's what was released on superherohype before...i don't know if it's accurate or not, but it very well could be that they are keeping some of those characters secret, such as Nightcrawler.

I have Nightcrawler pictured on the X-3 figure solicits that I have, so yes he's in the assortment. :)

As far as I know, he's still not in it.
They're just using the X-3 banner to release an X-2 figure of him that was cancelled. :)

A little off-topic, but for Dazzler fans wanting a Marvel Legends, CHECK OUT THIS CUSTOM DAZZLER!

See how awesome a ML Disco Dazz could be?!

Here's a Custom X-Factor Polaris/Havok -- FABULOUS! (http://i7.ebayimg.com/04/i/05/7e/02/e9_1.JPG)
Why they mess around with Iron Man and Elektra is beyond me. Ah well.

The Lucky One

11-21-2005, 11:38 AM

Wow... that's really impressive. I think I'd want that costume to be the variant (with her classic X-Men costume the regular, of course), but seriously, looks awesome. Pop her and Havok (in classic eggbeater costume, of course) into series 16, please.

-D

Novaya Havoc

11-21-2005, 11:42 AM

Classic Dazz makes for much better design and sclupt, though -- there's so much more to the silver outfit than the generic blue spandex outfit.

Take the recent busts, for example. Classic Dazzler, with the Blue X-Men variant. I have both, but the disco one is by far the more detailed and stunning piece.

Different strokes, I guess. I'd take any Dazzler, but the classic version would have so much more to her.

PS... check out that Polaris/Havok. It's amazing!
