I thought I would start this thread for us to talk about the Marvel Legends so we dont have to keep going into the X3 Phoenix thread.

Good Idea. I dont have too too many legends but my collection is growing...I only get the X-men. So far, I have:
Gambit Rogue (box set) Beast Wolverine (box set) Magneto Colossus Cyclops (X-men Classics) Storm Sabertooth Juggernaut Nightcrawler Prof. X Pyro Deathstryke Onslaught (missing 3 pieces but my friend has them and is holding them for me) Longshot Psylocke Kitty Pryde White Queen
Plus I have all of the X-men movie figures.
I have some non-x-men too that I got to get the BAF parts...still need a few to complete mojo.
I hope to fill in all the holes in my collection at some point.

My collection isn't that big either because like you I also only collect the X-Men ones.

I have a tiny collection haha, but thats probably for the best for now, Im beggining to run out of room.
I have weapon X Wolverine, X-23, Deathstryke, Mystique, Storm, Kitty Pryde, and X3 Beast
I also have the heads and stuff that came with individual figures, theyre pretty cool, but no full BAFs

My ML collection is limited but fun... I mainly stick to two areas... Fantastic Four related characters, and then 'trendy' characters like for example Ms Marvel and Thor. The pride of my collection however is the Young Avengers box set... YA is one of my favourite books right now (if only it was still coming out!) so I love having the team on the shelf... I also have my pre-CW New Avengers collection at the front of the shelf... sadly lacking Iron Man, (and Ronin/Echo of course, as there is no ML Ronin!) Haven;t yet decided if I'm going to try and update the collection to reflect the new New Avengers and Mighty Avengers!

I have most of the figures but I'm being a bit choosier now since the BAFs don't thrill me anymore. I mainly stick to the Avengers and XMen, wishing they would release the Runaways and more YA's too.

I ground to a dead halt with Hasbro's first series. I only bought X3 Beast. I just can't bring myself to pay $10 for the rest of them. Not because of quality (though it is a factor) but because they simply aren't worth that much money. Series 2 looks much, much better, but I'll probably limit myself to just the Dark Phoenix and Juggernaut movie figures.
I do have just about everything Toy Biz did, though. I skipped Namor and Toad in the early series, then I skipped most of the Face-Off packs and boxed sets. I never did find the series 7 Apocalypse or series 6 Dark Phoenix, but I can do without them. I collected most of the movie lines too, like FF, Spider-Man, and the only reason I care about modern Marvel toys, the X-Men. I have a good amount of the related Classics lines too, mostly Spider-Man since that was the only way to get Spider-Man's villains. I only have a few from the Hulk, X-Men, and FF Classics lines, and I'm still looking for Absorbing Man, Kang, and Dragon Man.
I'm very satisfied with my collection as it is. It's my third biggest collection, behind Star Wars and GI Joe.

Yay, a new ML thread!!! My collection isn't that great either, mostly X-men, but I also get characters I like. I think the last one I bought was Spider-woman. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go get Emma and X3 Beast tomorrow while I'm out getting Faith and Giles figs. I can't wait for X3 Jean and Juggs

Picked up a few more MLs at NYCC today for cheap. Got the variant black X-23 for $5 and then picked up sasquatch and Bishop for $8 each (not so great but not bad either). I will probably complete apocalypse by buying the final 3 tomorrow.

I love Rachel in the 3rd Hasbro line, I think she looks great, I'll definately be buying her.

yes Rachel does look good...her ears are kinda large but shes so cute. I REALLY want the Colossus...The star of the line for me. Danger is amazing too. I'm not super obsessed with the character but I will definitely be buying (and keeping) her. Cyclops is another one that looks great. I want all those 4 but I will buy the others to complete that amazing Brood Queen. She looks spectacular in person. And then seeing the Brood from Diamond made me want 100 of them for the queen...ugh...that will be expensive.

I generally only collect the X-men as well....though someone sent me a Wasp figure the other day & she is quite nice...I may have to delve into the Avengers now!! I collect all the movie figures & also the new X-men line which I just received a short haired Rogue & she is very cool. I collect the FF movie figures, but am thinking of buying the other comic based new ones as well. These pics are outdated & missing some people, which I have noted on each pic: My ML's - minus the red Archangel I received not long ago. New X-men series minus the short haired Rogue I received the other day: X-men Movie figures:

Picked up some more legends today. Got Astonishing Wolverine, Scarlet Witch, Iron Fist, Maestro, the X-Factor variant Cyclops, Abomination, Loki and Green Goblin...and in the process, I completed Onslaught and Apocalypse...most of the figures I got JUST to get the pieces to complete the BAF...marketing gold.
My collection is pretty massive now. I'm passing the non-X characters off to my younger brothers.
