IN HAND images of the Hasbro Marvel Legends Disney+ Hydra Stomper BAF Wave

I got my "pre-order processing soon" email from BBTS for this wave on Aug 23rd so it should be hitting soon. Usually I get that a day or two before something hits. I actually got it the same day as the ones for Masterverse Clamp Champ and Webstor and they've already both been in my pile of loot for a couple of days now.

I pre-ordered the whole wave plus an extra Talos. However the Agatha is the only one that I considered a "must get." The others will be primarily used for kitbashing - which is what I do with the vast majority of MCU figures to make them into comic based figures that have never been made.

On a mildly related note the Walmart exclusives of Joe Fixit and Morbius / Six-Arm Spidey arrived for me in recent days. I'm guessing Bucky Cap probably shipped too, but I didn't order that one. I also received my DC Multiverse Riddler, Tim Drake Robin, Battle Mode Blue Beetle and Carapax figures. Saw the Blue Beetle movie on Sunday night and it was much, much better than I expected it to be.

This wave is now hitting here in Canada, I just saw some of these guys at Fan Expo, a bunch of etailers are also stocking them, so if these are not quite out in the US yet, look for them to be dropping in soon I'd imagine.

Same!! I already preordered the 3 musts, Ill get Talos and Fury down the road if I get the money. But those 3 are just itching to be in my display!!

Ive been dying to get my hands on Agatha, Gamora and Kingpin since the wave leaked, cant wait to finally get them.

Ick! This wave is like 40 percent junk, 25 percent unnecessary & 35 percent OK sure.

Junk first. Holy cow, the long awaited update for Fury is finally here and he looks so feeble. As thin and lanky as Sam Jackson is he does seem to be at least to be a sturdy guy but this is Snoop Dog with a Sam Jackson head. And I haven't seen a good picture of him standing next to other figures but I'm willing to bet he's on the same very short suit body mold that should have been put out to pasture years ago. If I was Sam I would be personally offended. I was excited to for Fisk but naw. Not only is the head sculpt very bad but it's clear this thing is only on the Happy Hogun model which is bigger than the other suited model but just barely. And certainly not tall enough to portray Fisk properly. Especially how they made him look so much larger in the Hawkeye series than he was in the Daredevil series. They didn't even give him the fat suit layover. He actually looks pretty buff. He looks more like he wandered of the set of Jersey Shore than the seedy underbelly of New York. Agatha, poor Agatha. More like poor Katherine. She's so awesome and amazing but her part as Agatha was the low point in her career. Not as Agnes mind you where she was delightful, but as the abysmal Agatha character. I was so excited she was getting a figure but ewwww. Looks nothing like her. Terribly boring and honestly just looks like an ink blot on any standard Rorschach test. And not the cool Rorschach like in the Watchmen.

Unnecessary next. And the concept is the same for both Foster and Gamora. Both totally pulled out of thin are. Both will never be seen again after whatever they're going to do in the whole What If? waste of time and space. And life.

Okay sure is best for last. Great update for Yelena. It looks better than I thought. Which I knew it would and I like the black over the white. Total get for me. Great update for Talos. And as many have said it looks like him this time. The PTA Bake Sale dad in windbreaker model actually looks to be larger than the one being used for Fury. Which means it will probably scale better with most MCU figures. Put the Hydra Stomper in the Unnecessary category. Nobody cares and we'll never see it again. At least not this version. Maybe a Mark III because they seem to be milking it for all it's worth. But it does get that 10 percent for cool points. See the math all works out.

I think it looks pretty good honestly. That's pretty accurate to D'Onofrio's resting Kingpin face. Even when he's smiling he looks unhappy lol.

His face is ok but he absolutely should be on a bigger buck. Its clear they just stuck a D'Onofrio head on a body they kinda thought sorta would work. Again, its the laziness, the "eh, good enough" sort of work ethic we've come to expect. I did think he'd get a little more attention to detail, though.

It's good that this time Talos looks like Talos and not some generic Skrull.
