NYCC 2016: Marvel Legends Old Man Logan & Shatterstar!

Posted on by October 5, 2016

Alright, ‘fess up! Try as they might, Hasbro wasn’t able to keep the lid kept quite shut enough prior to SDCC 2016, and the lineup for the Marvel Legends 2017 X-Men wave ended up leaking out. So most of us knew the wave in advance of its announcement. But there were two figures on the leaked list who were absent at San Diego Comic-Con and still unconfirmed… until tonight! At the NYCC 2016 event tonight, Hasbro officially revealed the 2017 Marvel Legends Old Man Logan and Shatterstar figures!


With Old Man Logan returning during “Secret Wars” last year and then crossing over into the mainstream Marvel Universe comics, it was only a matter of time until an Old Man Logan Marvel Legends 6″ figure appeared. And that momentous day has now come!

I’m a bit exhausted from 8 hours of travel and then 3 hours of Hasbro event tonight, but to my weary eyes the X-Men Marvel Legends 2017 Old Man Logan figure looks like a 100% new mold to me–and he looks awesome!


I imagine some fans have forgotten by now, but a Marvel Unlimited exclusive Marvel Universe Old Man Logan 4″ figure was released several years back. 6″ collects have been waiting for their turn to get the oldest and most jaded Wolverine ever ever since, and now their wishes have finally come true!


But Old Man Logan didn’t come to the Hasbro party tonight alone… he brought a date: Shatterstar from the original X-Force lineup!


It seems like eternity since we got a classic X-Force character in Marvel Legends (modern Cable doesn’t count), so I was delighted to see Shatterstar in his original costume tonight!

 Shatterstar’s awesome swords look so 90’s it hurts. Love it!

What do you think of the final two figures to be revealed for the 2017 Marvel Legends X-Men Series, Marvel collectors? Are these the Shatterstar and Old Man Logan six inch figures you’ve been waiting for?

  2. Shatterstar’s feet are way too big. They should either just be a sliver of plastic hanging off of the ankle rockers, or he should come with a cloud of dust to cover his uni-toe.

    • Hahaha, oh man, that’s fantastic!

      He’d almost be as hard to stand up as Hasbro’s high-heeled figures.

  3. I wish they would release this Logan with a young Logan head.

    And Shatterstar! It’s about damn time!!!! We now have Cable, Cannonball, Domino, Warpath and Shatterstar! We’re half way to the real, original X-FORCE! We just need Siryn, Sunspot, Rictor, Feral and Boom Boom (AKA Boomer AKA Meltdown etc etc etc)!

  5. Yes yes and more yes! That shatter star is the version I wanted! Thank you hasbro for making the correct classic figure. I need more Jim lee X men!

  6. I’m for everything X-Men but I’m not feeling old-man-Logan. Shatterstar is a must have though.

    • You know? It’s not a crime to see something on the internet and just like it without coming up with something cynical or condescending to say. There’s nothing wrong with the paint jobs. Or the feet. Or anything else here. I can’t wait for the “I hate everything” thing to go away.

      • You know the thing about Shatterstar’s feet was a joke about Rob Lefield’s drawing style and not the figure itself, right?

        I was almost going to roll with it and mention how it also needs bendy swords, entirely closed fists holding said bendy swords, and inconsistent ponytail lengths for each figure to be truly comic-accurate.
