@tsi Why isn't the retro carded Iron Man wave listed, it was rumored that we are suppose to get a retro carded Iron Man wave.
Bah! I really want one of the anniversary celebrations to be Secret Wars.
I have no interest in that rumored villain four pack, which means that’s exactly where they’ll include that Simonson Loki we’ve been wanting, thereby forcing me to get it.
Just like that Crossbones/Constrictor 2-pack. No desire for Crossbones, but I’m going to have to get it anyway.

That set really seems like a Cabal set from the end of Dark Reign, so i would bet either it's Lady Loki or how he looked during Siege.
On another note, I get there are other reasons to dislike rektangular, but dude is bringing us info we'll be discussing for the next year and we're gonna complain about the way he's talking? I guess some people are really excited about the new Mean Girls movie :p
Well... to me, it's important to recognize your shortcomings. It's fantastic that he's giving us info, absolutely, but he is the one who has chosen the form it takes. If he simply posted on a blog or some other website, fine, but he's the one who wants to express himself verbally on youtube and I have criticism about the way he goes about it.
For the record, I KNOW I do not have a voice that should be narrating youtube videos, but if I were to do that you better believe I would script every word I speak and likely not post the first take.
Sidenote, thank you to everyone who DID watch his video to share the information with the rest of us.

You put yourself in the public space and you open yourself up to criticism.
I also wouldn't say he's doing a public service by leaking product details. He's got a source that's willing to help him get paid. Good for him. He sucks at making videos.

Couldn't tell you, I didn't make the list or the video. I doubt this list is comprehensive.
I don't even think he's spelling rectangular right.
@ru1977 Lady Loki was Dark Reign right? Loki is Siege was in the costume that Hasbro did as a Walmart exclusive right?
So I just stumbled upon Power Princess this weekend and decided to pick her up since I wasn't sure how difficult she would be to find later. But the price! Ouch - 41$ Canadian! Definitely not what I'd prefer to pay.
Anyone care to place any bets as to whether or not she'll hang around on pegs in the next few months? Should I hold out for a better deal on her in a few weeks' time, or just be glad I found her now at retail price? I obviously have 30 days to return her if I find a better deal. Thing is, I have no idea how popular a character she is to the Marvel Legends collectors.
I keep learning it's better to buy a figure first than realize later it's in high demand and have to spend months hunting for it. But maybe she's not a big deal and will be available down the road for a more reasonable amount.

She's definitely the most sought after figure in the wave, next to Vision. And aside from being a great ML figure to ML fans, she's popular to DC & Wonder Woman fans as well. I can't see her being discounted (more than $5 USD) unless they make solid cases of her or they discount an entire case of the wave. Good pickup for MSRP IMO!
I find a lot on the list to be excited about, I just hope the Legends team delivers on the themes. It would be amazing if the Strange Tales Wave is filled with all of the deep cuts and long-awaited characters being mentioned, or if the also-rumored Secret Wars Retro Wave has the Titania, Volcana, She-Hulk, Wasp, and Rogue that we're missing, but I'm just worried that the waves be filled with re-dos of heavy hitters that we've received in the past.
Remember all of the characters being speculated on for the Bring On the Bad Guys Wave? And then we end up with another Doom and the Scientist Supreme and the Hood that no one asked for. Or the Marvel Knights Wave that included an Iron Man figure? Like, WTF? You're going to hype up a Marvel Knights Wave and then stick f'king Iron Man in it?
I'm already a little bummed that the supposed final Wolverine 2PK is Fantastic Four versions of Wolverine and Spider-Man. Not Albert and Elsie, not an Astonishing version, not a Fang version, not a bone-clawed feral version, but a F4 version that, again, I have seen no one ask for.
That's one reason I really don't like these leaks. The actual result can never match the hype and speculation we all build up in our minds even though it is always the same result. We are Charlie Brown and Hasbro is Lucy holding the football.
@disneyboy She won't be on pegs in the US as this wave will not be hitting brick & mortar retail here.
Well, I guess there's a chance GameStop could still carry them...
