I'd get them. 🙂
I'm all for new X-Men characters as it's my favorite subsection of Marvel, but there's a whole generation of X-Men characters that they've been barely touched before they move on to these.... Rockslide, Pixie, Anole, Armor, Husk, Magma and Cypher are all among my top 10 most wanted first.
While some of the designs for the Children of the Vault are great I am just not that interested in them as characters or toys.
Who? I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with these characters. A few interesting designs, but not intriguing enough to buy. I realize that the mutant concept was originally developed out of laziness. (Stan admitted to that). No need to develop an origin story, or an individual costume. Just slap an ‘X’ on some spandex, and viola, X-person #5,863. Waaay back in GSXM 1, we were treated to characters that had individual looks and their own backstories. I miss that sense of individuality, that seems to be missing now days. Sorry for the rant. Anyway, pass on these.
Fuego would look good on a shelf, not fussed about any of the others though.
Shelf space is limited these days, and none of these characters would get it
Passes all around today. No clue who any of them are, and no interest in learning.
I say it a lot in this thread, but the Children of the Vault are the exact kind of wild-card picks I LOVE to see in ML. I'm pretty well read into Marvel - especially pre-2000ish - but it's been tough to keep up with everything over the years. Making one or two Children of the Vault would at least get me to go back and read their major appearances, and fill in another small gap in the massive lore that makes up the 616. Learning new characters is part of the reason I stay interested in this line after 20 years.
Day #902 - The Great Lakes Avengers - the complete team. The Original team was Archive Day #222
Gravity has his own separate entry. Deadpool, Squirrel Girl, Hawkeye and Mockingbird already exist. The squirrels that came with Squirrel Girl could be Monkey Joe and Tippy-Toe.
Molecule Man was Day#223
Good Boy
Leather Boy
Grasshopper I (Taggert)
Grasshopper II (Shelton)
Grasshopper III
Grasshopper Skrull
Pansy
Mr. Immortal
Big Bertha
Dinah Soar
Doorman
Flatman
Only interested in the original members: Mr. Immortal, Dinah Soar, Big Bertha (BaF?), Doorman, and Flatman. Pass on any others.
Original members plus Good Boy and Grasshopper for me. Leather Boy was really a joke amongst jokes.
Mr. Immortal, Dinah Soar, Big Bertha, Doorman, Flat Man, and Grasshopper would make a fun Amazon set. The rest would be a pass.
Never heard of the Children of the Vault. None of them look all that interesting to me. There are just so many other great characters that I know and haven't been touched by the legends team. Thor and Fantastic Four supporting characters, and several major villains are at the top of my list. Anything meh like the Children of the Vault has to be a pass.
Big YES to the Great Lakes Avengers (or GLX, or GLC) The original team is a must. Mr Immortal is still one of my top most wanted characters. (C’mon Hasbro easy reuse. Spidey bod, and new head sculpt). Grasshopper I would be a fun novelty character with him having the shortest team membership ever, anywhere in the Marvel Universe. Leather Boy is kind of an “I dare you to make this” character. Not an important character, but he would be a fun novelty. Not that I can see Hasbro putting the effort into him. I should mention, technically we were treated to an “official” Marvel Legends Flatman.
I'd get them all. 🙂
