UPDATE 6/5/2019: It’s been close to two months since they started appearing in stores, so I was beginning to doubt we’d ever see this Walgreens Exclusive “Iron Doom” pop up online at all. But for those still looking for it, rejoice: the Walgreens Exclusive Marvel Legends Infamous Iron Man Doctor Doom figure is now up for order online! For those who already have their own: is this figure worth scooping up?

If there’s one thing that Marvel Legends collectors could have confidently bet their life on coming out of Avengers Endgame, it’s that Hasbro would cash in on the sure-thing best-seller that is a “Worthy” Captain America figure. And now that all spoiler embargos have been listed, the announcement has transpired—but in an unexpected way: the Walmart Exclusive Marvel Legends Endgame Captain America with Mjolnir figure has now been revealed!

Wolverine is miles away from being one of my favorite Mutants, but he’s such a central figure on so many X-Men rosters across eras that I own dozens of figures of him. But one iteration I’ve managed to avoid owning (even in Funko Pop form!) is his original “origin” look. …At least, until now! I needed the last piece to build the Caliban Build-A-Figure, so I had to order the new Hasbro X-Men Marvel Legends Weapon X figure. But to my humongous surprise—I’m actually glad I had to buy this Wolverine…

The new Marvel Legends 80 Years figure reveals and pre-orders over the past two weeks—Cowboy Wolverine and Big Time Spider-Man—have gotten a bit of a varied reaction from fans. But tonight, Hasbro has freshly solicited another item in the series—and I suspect this one will NOT be getting such a tepid response: the Marvel Legends Hulk vs. First Appearance Wolverine Two-Pack is now up for order!

Hasbro has had far more hits than misses since the Return of Marvel Legends began in 2012, but occasionally there’s been a hiccup along the way. One of those snafus came in the Arnim Zola series, when the black Stealth Suit Spider-Man figure arrived and was, well… green. Fans have always been discontent about that release, and after 7 years, a “make-good” is on the way: an exclusive Marvel Legends Big Time Spider-Man figure is now up for order!

The most-anticipated series of every year for a large contingent of Marvel Legends collectors is the annual X-Men Legends series, and while we’ve got some offshoot waves coming later in the year, the core wave has begun arriving! While this is another stacked series, the 2019 X-Men Legends Build-A-Figure is a little… less… demanded than the majority of the wave. The Marvel Legends Caliban BAF can already be found for around just 50 bucks online… but is he comparatively cheap because he’s bad, or just in low demand…?

Just when it looked like the most exciting thing to happen to me Marvel collecting-wise this week was going to be finding the new Mysterio Berry Dr. Pepper, a photo leaked online Friday afternoon of a previously unannounced Marvel Legends 80 Years figure of what appeared to be a brand new Wolverine variant. We didn’t have long to wait until an official announcement of exactly what that figure was: the Exclusive Marvel Legends Cowboy Logan Wolverine figure is now up for order! I’m not sure anyone was crying out for a new ML Logan–but now that he’s here, he does look pretty sweet…

Just as I had resigned myself to having to wait until July for my X-Men Marvel Legends 2019 figures I ordered online arriving, I got a shipping confirmation for Beast! Turns out Amazon is shipping the figures as they get cases in, regardless of their stated “release date”. Looks like I’ll be waiting a bit for the rest of the Caliban series to arrive, but since Mrs. McCoy’s baby boy has bounced in, I’d be remiss if I didn’t review Beast ASAP…

UPDATE: Retailers slightly jumped the gun last night, but for those who still need to place their Marvel Legends Spider-Man Far From Home series orders, POs are back online for cases including Mysterio, Hydro-Man, Scorpion, Doppelganger and more!
In addition, there’s Good News/Bad News for those who want single figures! Good: Amazon has singles of Marvel Legends Movie Mysterio, Scorpion, Hydro-Man & co. up for PO individually!
Bad news: They’re currently dated to ship a month after other online retailers. But worth waiting if you want to pick and choose, right?

With five days until the Avengers Endgame movie hits theaters, I’m continuing on with my look at the first wave of 2019 Marvel Legends Avengers series figures! Last time, I reviewed an obscure character in Citizen V who Hasbro pretty much perfectly in toy form. Going back to the obscurity well, today I’m going to review the Avengers Endgame Legends Living Laser figure collectors will need to buy in order to build Armored Thanos. ML Living Laser certainly looks unique—but is he actually a good toy?

“Justice, Like Lightning…!” If those words don’t mean anything to you, then you’re probably in the majority of collectors who are scratching their heads at this release from the first wave of Avengers Legends 2010 figures. Whether you know him or not, you’ll need to buy the Marvel Legends Citizen V figure if you want his Armored Thanos Build-A-Figure piece—but is the original Thunderbolts leader a worthwhile figure in its own right?

The first two Avengers Endgame Marvel Legends figures that I previously reviewed—Ronin and the Armored Thanos Build-A-Figure—were both overall solid figures with a few faults holding them back. But the third and final ML Endgame figure in this Wave is one I’ve had to gather up the motivation to review at all. Hasbro is hoping that we’ll all buy multiples of the Marvel Legends Endgame Captain America figure—but is this a figure that collects will want to own any of?

While the Armored Thanos Series is technically the first Avengers Endgame Marvel Legends wave of Hasbro action figures, there’s not a whole lot going on so far as characters actually from the movie go. In fact, there’s just two single-packed figures from Endgame in the wave: Captain America and the subject of today’s review. Hawkeye’s absence was keenly felt in Infinity War, but now he’s back with an all-new persona: should you add the Marvel Legends Ronin figure to your collection? Here’s my review…
