She-Hulk looks fantastic! I wont feel so bad about having to buy her for the Blob piece since she looks so great. I would say she is only of the best looking females to ever come out of any Marvel Legend series.

Phoenix's eyebrows need some serious re-doing. I'm afraid to make mine worse, so I might just pick up an extra. Wowsers!! Who has eyebrows that high!!! ;D She-Hulk looks fantastic! I wont feel so bad about having to buy her for the Blob piece since she looks so great. I would say she is only of the best looking females to ever come out of any Marvel Legend series. She is a very nice looking female figure for Hasbro (or any company really). While there were a lot of nice ladies in ToyBiz ML...there were a lot of truely fugly ones as well.

I finally gave in today and picked up Emma. She was one of a handful of Hasbro 1 figures left at my local Tesco. I was torn between her and Banshee, and so far Im sure I chose wrong. Infact, this is the first time Ive ever thought I wasted my money. She is growing on me as I pose her and stuff, and she is a nice addition to my small collection. I guess im just destracted by her slight uglyness, and the fact that she has a wonky left foot, meaning she looks a little odd unless posed just right. Oh well, I guess Ill just have to get Banshee aswell

I got the Marvel Select Brood and Skrull set today. They are fantastic! As soon as I opened them, I wished I had bought 2 sets. The Brood is my favorite, a really nice figure...and will look great in a few months when the build a figure Brood Queen comes out with HML3.
I expected to hate the skrull and want to throw it in a box or trade it for another Brood but he is actually very nice and I am considering keeping him. I definitely want another set now...

I believe so.
She will also be available in her regular FF outfit (from memory).

That's her! It's really her FF outfit with cloth 'lawyer clothes' to put over her.

I finally got round to getting X3 Juggs Hes pretty cool, and much bigger than I thought he would be! His hair is pretty lame, but at least Hasbro went to the effort to give us a removable helmet. Overall - Happy

Hasbro Series 4 has supposedly been revealed (although some people say the line may change)
First Appearance Storm (may be changed) Nova (may be changed) Age of Apocalypse Sunfire Tigra Silver Samarai First Appearance (yellow and red) Daredevil Punisher Build a Figure: Age of Apocalypse Holocaust
I am not really dying for any of these guys but will probably buy Silver Samarai, Storm and Sunfire.

Nooo, what happened to the rumoured X3 Angel, that there were even prototype pics for? (Well, ish. Those myspace sculpt photos)
The movie figs haven't been axed altogether have they? I know there was a lot of protest againt them, and I really don't see why.
But next question: Nova - As in Frankie Raye the herald, or that other Nova guy?

I was just going to ask about the X3 figures. It was really nice to be getting 1-2 in each line since they never made any to support the movie. It also seemed that those are the best sellers of the line too. I think it's the Nova guy since Marvel comics is having a big re-launch of the character and he's got a series coming out which Marvel is promoting a bit. Figure wise, I think he may be more of an interesting figure sculpt than Frankie Raye since she really didn't have much to a costume.

I picked up Banshee today Im so behind...haha Hes really good! I love that the wings are easily removable, and hes a better display figure than some of the figures ive recently got Now I just need Xorn and Ultimate Wolverine and Ive gotten all of the figures I want for now (unless i stumble across some of the older and rarer Toybiz ones, or unless I have enough money to treat myself to Ultimate Iron man and Quicksilver, figures I dont want a lot but would like in my collection) As for the series 4 line up, Its a shame there is no movie figure, I just hope hasbro are just skipping a wave and not stopping them all together. Id definately pick up Storm, and maybe Sunfire and Age of Apocalypse Holocaust if they look good.

Its the male Nova.
Movie figures are out I would guess because of all the whiney bitches who complained about them on the marvel boards. They might still do Angel, but probably not many beyond him.

Why would they complain about the movie figures? Is it because they think the movie based figures aren't really "Legends," or that they're taking the place of a figure they'd rather have? This is a pretty popular and major toy line, it's not going away anytime soon. Throwing in an X3 or other Marvel movie based figure here and there isn't going to ruin the ML line. I don't post on the Marvel boards, and don't plan to... but geeeeez. That would be like Star Wars fans complaining about the McQuarrie concept art figures being released this year: "they're not from the movies, why are we getting figures of them!" It's kind of like shooting yourself in the foot because you can't run fast enough. It doesn't make any sense.

I've come to realize that everyone everywhere will complain about anything. Even though movie figures generally perform better than many of the legends, people still hated them. Its mostly the people who want all new comic based characters. They love to ignore the fact that the rereleased figures like Hulk, Iron Man and Thor sell better than anyone else and the Movie figures outsell many of the new comic based figures. Its all so stupid and frustrating but hopefully it doesnt mean the end of the X3 figures.
I have heard the lineup may change so theres still a chance and I've got everything crossed since that Angel was beautiful.

I've come to realize that everyone everywhere will complain about anything. Yeah, that about sums it up! It was almost unbareable to go into any movie figure threads at Fwoosh....just people bitching & bitching...saying they were simply going to buy the movie figures to melt them down. And yes, it most certainly is snobbery. Same thing happens with the old X-men cartoon....people complain the white Storm is only popular because of the cartoon, same with Jubilee.....so freakin what!! Anyway I REALLY hope we see Angel....is that Colossus figure already lined up? Myspace Angel photos? I haven't heard about these before - does anyone have a link? Ofcourse I would have preferred the shirtless version
