Like I said before, this line should end soon so we can get back to having Marvel Legends.....

@Knutt..
That was before most people....the average person..even knew the lines existed, I think. After both of those waves things picked up for each line. If I remember correctly. It is weird that so many of us experience this hobby so differently in our parts of the country.

So I guess my Flame-On Torch can be opened now since the rarity is about to die.

Marvel Legends starts in 2012, yes? This line will go until 2015.
Legends will cost 15-20 bucks each. These 9 dollar figures make Hasbro and the stores money. legends is a collectors line, parents probably won't shell out money like that for a toy.

Buzzer was only available single carded. Torch and Ripper were in a comic pack first, then both were single carded with different colors later on.

So why treat it like a red headed step child? MU has been MIA from shelves for most of last year and nobody bothered stocking it. Now we are getting revision cases of figures that were released two years ago. I'm just saying, I know each figure carries a licensing fee but they could incorporate waaaay more detail with each figure to make the line uniformly look equal to Comic Series movie figures which are much more sturdier, have better sculpting and set at the exact same price....

This! Some collectors may hate on the MU for being a bunch of reused parts with new heads and paint apps, but it is actually MAKING money for Hasbro-. It's not even close to done. I used to love my Legends figures but THOSE are done. A few figures every year for collectors just isn't enough to get me back into them... unless its just the rare large size figure that will fit in with the MU figures. Good luck to fans of that scale though-i hope it does make a big comeback for them-cost be damned!

Classic case? I think they just came out when the lines were both in their infancy, and their weren't many produced. I never saw Flame on Torch I got 2 off of BBTS for 10 bucks each I think. Buzzer never sat around here....sure there were a few of him around town, but not in "peg warming" numbers.
Those initial waves are simply short and small runs. MU, however is getting revisions. GI Joe 25th had few revisions that I saw.
