Has it really been almost a DECADE since Marvel Legends started in 2002? I remember buying the 1st Wave Captain America, Iron Man, and Hulk at TRU for only $7 each and each included a COMIC BOOK! I lived in Southern Arkansas then and small town Wal-Marts were GOLD MINES! I got 2 of each wave through Wave 5 1 to open and display and 1 to leave MOC! I remember finding the ENTIRE Wave 6 including DEADPOOL at a Wal-Mart and never saw any more Wave 6. Wave 7 and 8 were RARE too, I got 1 of each. Distribution was better with Galactus Wave 9. I collected ALL the Toy Biz Marvel Legends figures but SADLY SOLD ALL (along with Playmates Simpsons and PALISADES MUPPETS) .when I moved outside of St Louis 7 years ago since my smaller house has less room. I am 1st a DC Comics fan and still have ALL DC Direct and JLU, DCUC, etc!
I am collecting the NEW 2012 Marvel Legends and glad the line has returned! I am looking foward to new characters and BAFs and hope previous ML characters are REVISITED like Scarlet Witch! Marvel UNIVERSE is fun, but nothing beats 6" scale!
