Review: Thor: Ragnarok (2017)/Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - Marvel Legends Heimdall (Endgame Thor Wave)

Heimdall is a pretty cool character and Marvel Legends needed to have him in figure form since the first Thor movie came out. It's a shame it took this long for this character to get a figure, what is funny to me is that Hofund, his sword, was in Marvel Legends scale before this figure debuted. We'll get to that in a little bit. This figure is based on his appearance in Thor: Ragnarok, it doesn't matter what the box says since the only bit of him we see of him in Avengers: Infinity War is where he uses the Bifrost to send the Hulk back to earth, and then he is impaled by Thanos. He's one of the few newer figures, one that should have been with previous releases. I would have honestly favored him over the Grandmaster in the Ragnarok 2-pack with Korg. This slot could have gone to someone else.

Review: Avengers: Endgame - Hasbro Marvel Legends War Machine Mark 006 // Rescue 0049 // Endgame Hulk Build-a-Figure

With the re-release of Avengers: Endgame that I still haven't watched there's a whole new set of Marvel Legends coming out. The second wave for Endgame has some very anticipated figures. Shuri that was teased last year with the 2nd wave of Black Panther figures, the heavily armored Mark 006 War Machine, 0049 Rescue Armor for Pepper Potts, and Professor Hulk along with other comic figures (Rock Python, Union Jack, Loki, and Beta Ray Bill). One of the downsides were that War Machine and Hulk aren't the versions everyone was expecting, we'll get to that in a bit. This set had been out for a couple months at this point at Targets in different parts of the United States but I had no luck finding it. I did have it pre-ordered on Amazon but I ended up finding all of them at GameStop two weeks ago. They were a lot more expensive but I just couldn't wait...

Review: Avengers: Endgame - Marvel Legends Walmart Exclusive Captain America Power and Glory (Spoilers)

Avengers: Endgame has been in theaters for over a month now, the second wave of basic figures have been released. The second Marvel Legends Endgame wave has found its way to certain parts of the United States, unfortunately for me I haven't been able to find any near me. This figure was released about 2 weeks ago and I had searched far and wide. I didn't find it until I went to watch Godzilla: King of the Monsters on Sunday and I was very lucky, I almost didn't go to Wal-Mart. Now if I could only get my hands on Binary Captain Marvel... Anyways let get to it!

Reviews: Avengers: Infinity War/Endgame - Marvel Legends Ebony Maw and Thanos (Build-a-Figure)

For the most part, the Endgame Marvel Legends waves have been okay, there are some places that already have wave 2! It would have been much better if more MCU figures were part of the waves but what can you do? Ronin, Captain America, and Ebony Maw were half of the wave and Cap didn't even come with a piece. You got 4 other comic figures with this wave which were also kind of okay but left you wishing for more. I still want to see Avengers: Endgame again before it leaves theaters and their version of the Avengers theme is amazing, especially when you watch that scene.

Review: Marvel Stud10s - Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - Marvel Legends The First Ten Years Iron Man Mark L // Doctor Strange // Thanos

Avengers: Infinity War is such an amazing movie especially with the buildup from the past 10 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the sequel as well, Avengers: Endgame. As a commemoration for the 10 years of the MCU, Hasbro released a wave of figures based on the films. Not every film of course but 10 of the 20+ movies from the lineup. This set doesn't have new figures but they're repainted, retooled and they look so much better than their previous incarnations.

Review: Avengers: Infinity War - Marvel Legends Black Widow // Thor // Cull Obsidian Build-a-Figure

 Finishing up the Cull Obsidian wave with Black Widow, Thor, and Cull Obsidian (I will look into the comic figures at some point) and I love Thor the most because his articulation is the least restrictive... which the cape can restrict in certain poses. These last two figures I got from Amazon because I couldn't find them in person. Black Widow wasn't much, 19.99 with free shipping, Thor on the other hand, I saw him for 19.99 but didn't jump on it fast enough so I ended up having to buy him for 28.99 and then a couple hours later he was back down to 19.99 which was a shame. Then about 2 weeks later, the entire Cull Obsidian wave showed up at Wal-Mart along with the Armored Thanos wave which was a little upsetting but what can you do?

Review: Avengers: Infinity War - Scarlet Witch & Vision Toys R Us Exclusive 2-pack

Toys R Us closed almost a year ago and I never got a chance to see this in stores. I did see it on Amazon for about $63 months ago but I didn't buy it. Eventually I had to get this so I searched on eBay and  the cheapest one was $99 so I did... by accident. So now I have this and I only paid twice the amount the retail price. Oh and there's a couple things that annoy me about this particular pair that I have, let's get to it.

Review: Avengers: Infinity War - Marvel Legends Falcon & Winter Soldier Two Pack (Target Exclusive)

This is the other 2-pack that was supposed to have a Stan Lee Build-a-Figure along with the Black Panther Erik Killmonger and Agent Ross Everett 2-pack I reviewed a while ago. This was pretty tough to find, I thought this would be a lot easier to find compared to the one with the unmasked Erik Killmonger... I was wrong, very wrong. I hunted for this set in person when it was on clearance but I didn't have any luck. I just kept finding more Eriks and no Bucky and Sam. I caved and got the set for $37 which was $3 less than the full price. And even then I got a faulty Sam, he had two right shoulders! I had to get another one from Ebay loose because I didn't want to buy another whole set.

Review: Avengers: Infinity War - Marvel Legends Thor // Rocket Raccoon // Groot 3-Pack (Toys R Us Exclusive)

 This is one of my favorite sets, Two out of 3 figures in this set are new and they help me recreate scenes from the movie which is always a bonus in my book. I had to get this through Amazon because Toys R Us is no longer a thing. I got this for about $33 which was good considering it was also twice that amount a couple weeks earlier. Either way, it was way cheaper than the Vision and Scarlet Witch set...

Review: Avengers: Infinity War - Marvel Legends Iron Man Mark 50 // Spider-Man (Iron Spider) // Thanos (BAF)

 So getting some of these figures was a pain, I saw Iron Spidey at FYE for about $27 which was a no from me but seeing how much he was online I decided to go get it but it wasn't there anymore so I resorted to buying it online for $28. Iron Man Mark 50 wasn't that hard to get but I paid about $20ish which isn't bad. Building Thanos was pretty satisfying, seeing the Mad Titan in plastic form was very much worth it. We'll talk about the big guy later, let's get started.

Review: Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - Marvel Legends Loki and Corvus Glaive Walmart Exclusive 2-pack

So this was one of the last figures that I needed for my Infinity War Collection, there will be spoilers throughout in the form of pictures so I'm warning you. This set is based off of the first scenes in the film. Thanos and his crew have destroyed and killed the Asgardian ship and its people. Thanos wants to get the tesseract in order to get the Space Stone. I loved that movie by the way, I watched all of the other Marvel movies I hadn't watch just to watch Avengers: Infinity War and I do have tickets for Avengers: Endgame for this Thursday, I can't wait!
