Super excited about the MS reveals. I don't buy a ton of Select figures, but I love when they make one that makes sense to include in my Legends display. Because of the MS Titanium Man I don't care if Legends gets to that figure any time soon. The Crimson Dynamo is supposed to be closer to normal human sized, so not totally sure if I'll buy this one - but I'm leaning towards yes. And Annihilus is an instant purchase and will be a big upgrade from the old BAF figure.
Excited for both of these.
I'm so pumped for Crimson Dynamo. My Winter Guard has sorely been missing Dmitri's presence. But I do hope that he's not massive. I know Select figures are larger than Marvel Legends, and while that worked in Titanium Man's favor, I'm hoping Dmitri here falls somewhere in between the scales and is closer to Marvel Legends/standard Select figure size. I'm fine with him being taller than Marvel legends guys, I just don't want him to be as tall as Boris.

That definitely isn't a concern. He's only about a head taller than Invisible Woman, who is probably shorter than the average human-sized Marvel Select. I suspect he's close to the same size as MS Silver Centurion, but maybe a little bigger. Maybe we can get an exact measurement once MSWord makes it back onto the forum.

Both Dynamo and Annihilus look great, hope we don't have to wait too long.
I used to only buy MS figures that could be fudged to fit into my ML collection, but they've been doing such a great job lately that I'm now collecting the "regular" figures as well. Eh. Retirement savings are overrated anyway.

Here's hoping he fits in basically good. I've been waiting for Dmitri for what seems like forever. Thanks for the info!!
I got Mr. Fantastic during the board outage, and wow, he's just the best version of the character created to date. Fits great with Legends too if you just use him with stretchy parts.
If you guys find fun poses for the coffee cup holder wrap effect please do share. The Legends Thing fits great in there, and you can also slide it down over Galactus's hand and forearm. I have pics of both but don't have a way to insert them into posts for this new forum.
Tempted to buy a second Mister Fantastic figure so that I can use one as a pencil cup.
I enjoy Marvel Selects as a way to get larger characters that Hasbro is not making for whatever reason. Disney licensed the 6” scale to Hasbro and the 7” scale to Marvel Select. Legends is my main scale I collect but larger characters in the 7” scale work great. I hope Marvel Select continues to make the big characters that Hasbro is neglecting.
Same here! Marvel Select has been doing a great job lately, so I find that I am buying more and more. Not just the big characters.I used to only buy MS figures that could be fudged to fit into my ML collection, but they've been doing such a great job lately that I'm now collecting the "regular" figures as well.

Why beard?
I’ve collected the line since the very beginning, skipping some of the ones that were essentially statues like Ultimate Spidey and Origin Wolverine. But I tried unloading some older figures I no longer want like classic Thor, Cap, the first Hulk and Red Hulk that shared the mold, Wolvie, unmasked versions of him and Cap, extras of Rogue, Psylocke, Sabretooth, Juggernaut, Abomination, but the comic shop I tried selling to had no interest because they likely couldn’t sell them either. MS figures are still pretty common, and are even reissued pretty regularly. There aren’t many that have really appreciated. So they’ll just rot in my basement til I can find a place to donate them or do a garage sale or something.
I was hoping Annihilus would be more than 8 inches tall.

Seems unlikely. The comic character is actually incredibly average height, so the figure probably won't stray from that.
