Time flies, and the proof is that somehow today is already the 20th Anniversary of the original live-action X-Men movie! Not a company to let such a momentous day go by without celebration, Hasbro has officially launched a quartet of figures we first saw debuted at the 2020 New York Toy Fair: Marvel Legends X-Men Movie Mystique, Wolverine, Magneto and Professor X are now up for order!
And for those who prefer to order their figures through Amazon, here’s the direct links:
Wolverine ►
Mystique ►
Prof X & Magneto ►
I pre-oredered the Wolverine. Isn’t there another version coming? Is that ordered through a different company?
There was a white tank top Wolverine exclusive with Amazon. It’s been up for preorder for a few months now.
I don’t think that this Wolverine or Mystique is worth the $25 price point. I will hold out for a sale price, and if I don’t get one, no big deal.
I don’t see him on Amazon. I’ll keep looking. Thanks!
See if this link works.

He’s been up for a while, and now sold out. Maybe he’ll be available again later, who knows.
Droppo….here’s the link to the white shirt Wolverine, but it does say “Currently Unavailable”, as of right now. Yesterday, you had to click on “These Sellers” and you could preorder it for $24.99. I guess keep checking the link to see if they open back up a preorder, or maybe when they get stock in for it…

I agree! with tax, a single figure will run over $27 in my state!
Thought I would at least want the Magneto/X 2pack but after thinking about the fact that I already have the best comic versions of both characters, I’m going to hold off on pre-ordering. I’m happy with my Mystique and plethora of Wolverine figures so those were already a pass. But these figures do look great and I’m glad they’re coming out but I’ll be on the lookout for a more favorable pathway to getting them should it present itself. If not, I’ll be alright.
The Wolverine figure looks really different from what was shown at Toy Fair and not for the better. That’s one sad looking attempt at Hugh Jackman’s likeness.
I’m also not a fan of the old Xavier and Magneto heads on their younger bodies, especially in the case of the latter. It seems to be a new lazy trend of fan service that isn’t really fan service at all. Kind of like when they released a Lilandra head with the Mystique comic figure. Just give me a Lilandra figure lol!
Anyhow, I’m going to have to pick up the Mystique figure since she actually looks pretty great, albeit with barely any accessories. I really hope they follow through with this line and make figures for Jean, Cyclops, Storm, Rogue, Iceman and Nightcrawler, based on their appearances in the original trilogy.

I have to say that the Mystique figure looks pretty great though, not withstanding the lack of accessories.
Overall, I really hope Hasbro follows through with this line and gives us figures for Jean, Cyclops, Storm, Rogue, Iceman and Nigjtcrawler based on their appearances in the first couple movies. That’s kind of what I had hoped for in the first place.
