I deleted my X account, so who wants to annoy Dan on social media to get my villains made for me?
@e-rock From the sound of it, he's getting plenty of that already. 🤣 There was a joke made on the livestream that, even if they announce one villain/character being made, the fans will just flood their inbox with requests for another. I don't know what he could possibly mean- comic fans are all nothing but respectful! 🤣
Who's on your list? I don't really check X much anymore, but if I feel the need to annoy, as I often do, I can send it Dan's way.

My list is of missing IS villains:
Abomination
Whiplash
Aldrich Killian
Malekith (TDW in general is very poorly represented)
Kaecilius
I appreciate it lol
I'll add:
Destroyer
Kurse
Echo
I never signed up for Twitter heh
Saw that some folks are starting to find some of the Infinity Saga figures at Ross- they were priced around $13. Don't have any stores around me, but if anyone does and manages to find a Banner, keep me in mind if you could!
I may buy a few if I see them

He has a Bluesky account he posts to about as much as his Twitter, so he would see your posts there:

He seems to post different things to Twitter than he does to Bluesky and vice-versa which is somewhat odd. He needs one of those apps that will post to multiple social media sites for you.
Thanks Ru! I can't wait, Spidey's rogues gallery is really filling in nicely! It's a long shot but I'm still hoping for Aunt May to round out his Scooby gang!
Soooooo I don't frequent this forum as obsessively as I used to just because the lack of MCU figures was frustrating to me. And now this whole Hasbro license thing has me nervous too BUT with that said... I'm seeing this rumored leaked list for 2025 which includes
Thunderbolts wave
Fantastic 4 wave
Fantastic 4 Haslab
Deadpool and Wolverine wave 2
Deadpool Corps pack
The Marvel's 2 pack
A new Disney Plus (mostly) live action wave
Yet, no one is really talking about it..
So how likely is it that these rumors are true? What is this guys batting average? Because some of these waves are a given but some of them get me VERY excited! I haven't felt this wave about MCU Legends in a long time and I don't want to get my hopes up. Getting Dar-Benn is a huge and welcomed shock. (Can't believe we aren't getting a High Evolutionary tho.)
I think one of the most shocking and exciting rumors is the Deadpool 3 wave 2. I kinda expected a wave 2 but I full expected it to be chalked full of Deadpool and Wolverine variants. So the fact that it literally includes every single character I would want (swap Paradox for B-15) is almost unbelievable.... like a little too good to be true. Not a single Deadpool or Wolverine in the wave?? Hmmm. Very sus. I know the Deadpool Corps pack covers DPs side of things. But people have been clamoring for a sleevless Wolverine and any one of his variants would probably get the fan boys going as well. So I'm just having such a hard time believing this to be true. Somebody give me hope!!
Also, honorable mention: I am over the moon happy that the Disney Plus waves aren't dead after all (if true) Finally getting a missing lead (WBN) now the only lead were missing is Echo. I would have definitely preferred her over Kahori. And I think Ravonna and B-15 were in line way before O.B. but it's still one step closer. My biggest D+ want will still be Darcy freaking Lewis.... we were soooo close Hasbro!!! Anyways, it's hard not to get my hopes up so somebody tell me how likely this rumored list is based on this guys past leaks pleaseeee.
@joshuakat Welcome back! It still always trips me up seeing your username. My name is Josh, my mom's name is Kat, so it always feels like a mirror version of me posting. 🤣
If I remember correctly, we were made privy to that leaked list a month or so ago. I wanna say the leaker has been fairly reliable in the past, but I don't honestly remember (lots of "leaks" nowadays, you know?). I think the reason more people aren't talking about it is we just don't know what is/isn't true at this point, and it's been drowned out by actual reveals in the meantime. It's an exciting list, for sure, but almost too good to be true in some respects. The one I'd take with the biggest grain of salt is probably the Deadpool wave, for the reason you mentioned. I'm sure most, if not all of the leaked characters, will be there, but like you said, the lack of the title characters feels a little sus. Always gotta have those anchors (anchor beings and anchor figures). I suppose they could just re-issue the first wave alongside the new one, but I think we all want- and Hasbro knows we all want some newness- sleeveless Wolvie and maskless Deadpool (the former far more likely than the latter, unfortunately).
Other than that, the waves don't seem all that irregular. They're more or less what we expected from such a wave, Thunderbolts and F4 in particular. Maybe that's just me trying to manifest, since they all sound pretty dang good, but still. The one I'm most eagerly anticipating, if it's true, is probably the Fox X Men anniversary wave, just for nostalgia's sake.
Like you said, assuming they're true, the waves aren't perfect. They're not filling those long desired omissions like Darcy, Ancient One, High Evo, etc., but it's something. Upgrades to older figures, some newer wants like OB, a surprise or 2 like Dar-Benn. Some, like Darcy, I suppose always have a chance of being in a future project (Visionquest, maybe?), so I haven't lost all faith there. We also know Hasbro isn't afraid to put a one-off release out there like Man-Thing or Lizard that isn't tied to a specific wave, so we could see something there too. It's a pretty good mix all-in-all, and only time will tell. Fingers crossed, though! If true, 2025 will be a heck of a year!
I admit I have to take a moment when either of you post.
With Thunderbolts, I feel like that wave was on multiple leaker lists? Or did these all originate from the same source and I simply saw them reported by different people? Yes, some of those leaks feel 'too good to be true'. The deluxe Falcon figure got me really excited but I'm not holding my breath either. If that entire D+ wave is true, at this point I'll be completely stunned.
Lizard is going up tomorrow at 1pm Eastern.
Thanks Ru! I can always count on you to keep me on track! Which doesnt surprise me. If I remember correctly, you use an excel spreadsheet to keep track of all these Legends haha. I got my Lizard all pre-ordered!
joshsquash That's SO crazy my mom's name is Squash729! Haha jk. I agree, if these leaks are true 2025 will be leaps and bounds better than this year and that will be a much welcomed change!
I'm pretty eager for the Fox X-Men too. Who would have thought in 2025 the Fox X‐Men, Evan's Johnny Storm, Blade, Elektra, and Tobey's black suit would all be on shelves! I think out of all the legacy characters we could get Jessica Alba's Sue Storm would be a tip top of my list! I'll take what I can get with the Fox X-Men but my only complaint is I would prefer a cohesive OG team (Scott, Jean, Storm, and Wolvie) it seems the designs will be pulled from different films whereas I'd want them all from X1 in the black leather. But that's a minor gripe and I'll still buy these for sure!

My pleasure! That is correctly, I rigorously and diligently document everything I can think of.
I decided against getting Lizard. he's five dollars cheaper than I was braced for, but still can't justify spending the money when the (admittedly inferior, but still) one I have is fine. I think the better heads won't really give me $35 worth of joy. maybe if I see someone selling the heads on ebay next year or something. Electro I will absolutely grab though.

HAW!!!!
but yeah, if even half the leaks are true, I'll be happy. Definitely want the Four, but still debating how deep I want to get into the Thunderbolts. Sentry seems like the only definite one, and even then part of me is trying to talk myself out of bothering with movie version of the original Dark Avengers team.

I agree a cohesive team would be preferable, even if it's a version of the team I don't want. But this is also the company that abandoned the Endgame Quantum suits with only a few left to go!
I am getting Lizard. Mostly cause I am hoping he has improved posability. But I am guessing he won't.
