Finally the Rogue figure I've been waiting years for. The only minor nitpick us those small female fists. They should be slightly larger. Smart idea packing her with Destiny. I was almost thinking they'd have done a 3 pack with an updated Mystique. Overall quite pleased with this reveal.
New Phoenix with a brand new Phoenix Force base. I'm ok with it being Jean instead of Rachael. Personal preference.
Strange Tales wave ... I think like others of rather have seen a classic Voodoo over a modem redo. Classic Dracula would have been my preference. But the modern one does look goid in plastic. Lilith totally unexpected. Look great definite a unique design that may stand out on a display. The inclusion of Hellstrom gives me hope for a Mephisto to finally get dine in legends form.
Just realized the new Rogue is absolutely getting reused for the animated version when they inevitably revisit X-Men 97.

You're right. And the other absolute certain reissue in that pick is Storm in her FA look. Any yet ANOTHER sure thing is skull cap Cyclops on the Vulcan buck. There you go. That's half of XM97 wave 3 and they don't even have to make any new bucks. Take it to the bank!
@hbhfback that was the first thing I thought when I saw Rogue. I want the 2 pack but will comfortably pass on the inevitable 97 version.
Destiny, even though it had been long rumored, is great to see. And I also am happy with that Rogue and assume that we get a JR jr X-Men 200 era Rogue at some point (or animated version)... Also happy with the Xavier to finish off X-Men 275.
Not sure about Odin as I also prefer the BAF I think. What I really want is a 3-pack based on the Thor 353 cover. But I may get it to show support for more Thor related figures.
Phoenix effect looks OK, but man I was hoping for Rachel.
Odin looks incredible! So much detail on his armor, and the colors look great.
I like the villain Rogue figure. Looks like a very nice figure, and I still like her as an antagonist like this.
I finally have the complete BoEM line up from Uncanny X-Men 141 and now am just one figure away from being able to have this on my shelf
Come on training suit Kitty Pryde.
Preach - 1st Appearance Kitty is a must have.
That's exactly the Rogue costume I've been hoping for. And including her with the long-awaited Destiny makes this the first Marvel Legends 2-pack where I've wanted both figures.
With this Rogue checked off, my new very specific look from a very specific time frame is Ariel Kitty Pryde.
(I'd also really like an Avalanche that I recognize, but that's so unlikely I'm not even sure why I took the time to type it out.)
Those of you who have been clamoring for Dracula, is that a version you're happy with?
Not even close. In fact, I really hate this design for Dracula, and I'm massively disappointed by this reveal. The Colan version is the one I want...and I will continue to wait. Sad thing is the Strange Tales wave SHOULD be something I'd immediately buy, but none of these are the iterations I've been wanting, with the exception of Lilith. I'll likely grab her & Hellstrom, since this may be the only time he is made, but I would have much preferred his classic look.
Same. This whole wave is a pass for me. Out of everything, I’ll probably get Phoenix and maybe Odin.
Sorry this is what you’re getting:
Captain Ultra would be proud.
I am saving a lot of money lately. 🤣 Will grab Odin since he is a worthy upgrade but the rest is a pass. Blackheart looks good but I honestly think my toybiz one still holds up ok and the BAF is locked behind one of the worst waves in some time. Would maybe grab Phoenix on clearance but again I think the one from a few years ago holds up just fine. Destiny/Rogue pack will be picked up eventually for at least some sort of discount. I actually like the Rogue figure but I'm annoyed cause I really want the black bodysuit, croptop, punk look and it seems to be the one that might never get done.

That was my first exposure to Rogue, from series one of the 90s comic trading cards. I think Ryan likes doing figures that were represented in those trading cards so I'm sure that Rogue is on the radar and is also the remaining look of hers that I want the most.
I just saw the fan stream again. There were some standouts for me, some disappointments and a few really, huh, okays. The bottom line Marvel Legends is my favorite line and will always be my favorite line so I can deal with some disappointments and a few really, huh, okays.
Sorry this is what you’re getting:
Not gonna lie, if they ever make a teen body Kitty, this outfit would make an excellent repaint for a Marvel Unlimited annual subscription figure.
