Anyone finding these yet? I know they are out but no luck for me. I am interested in all of wave 1.

I hit TRU to check out the SW stuff today, and was surprised to see a couple of the new Legends on the pegs.  They only had Iron Man and Klaw, and I currently have the wave preordered at BBTS, so I passed for now instead of trying to pick up the rest individually later.  They were priced at $17.99 each.

Hit up 2 Targets and a walmart today in search of these since they are cheaper than TRU at 14.99, but still no luck.

I'm tempted, as I'm a sucker for good sculpts and they all have a nice bit of personality, but I'm probably going to stick with the smaller stuff for now. I just don't have the space, though I may make and exception for A-Listers that I'm missing, and any new Spider-man villains. Otherwise, gonna try to resist.

Saw these at TRU today.  No Thor or Regular Iron Man, but they had 2 Stealth Iron Man.  I was tempted to get Stealth IM, but too basic for my tastes.  Thought about Hope as well, but she just didn't appeal to me.  The only one that really looked good to me was Rodgers, but I passed on him too at $18.  Will probably snag him somewhere down the line though.

Not much new shown for this line at Toy Fair either, but that's fairly typical for most lines it seems.  I'm curious how many waves we'll get this year overall, it seems like they've only talked about three overall.  I did get my Wave 1 set from BBTS last week, and I thought the figures were pretty nice.  I did get the Stealth version of Iron Man (that's the only one I've seen at TRU as well), and the blue version of Ghost Rider.  Pretty nice figures though.  Even though I don't really have a lot of room for them, I am glad that Legends is back.

I passed on that Blue Iron Man a week or so back - looks too simple compared to all the other 6" Iron Man figs I have.  I was tempted to get Steve Rodgers, but will wait on a sale for him.  Not a whole lot of new coming out of this line, but I definitely will nab a few figures here or there.  I really really really like the John Walker figure, and this will save me countless hours of bidding on Ebay customs for one of the last Avengers I still need.

Used the DCPI trick today and the girl, who was very cute although that has nothing to do with the story, was bringing me the figures out and i saw the manager grab her as she was coming through the door. She wen back in and then came back with only four figures in the wave. I am guess the manager wanted Ghost Rider and Hope Summers for himself. 2 more to go before Terrax is complete.

Damn, I saw the pack with Terrax' head and axe and it looked sweet. I just can't justify the expense to build the only figure I want. Will have to look for one on eBay I guess...he came out great.

You can have my spare parts.  I will eventually get Rodgers and maybe a few of the other Avengers.

And that's why I am single at the moment, never even crossed my mind. I was more annoyed that I didn't get a ghost rider haha. On a side not, got the 2 I needed today.

Found my set yesterday at Target.  It's great to finally see Legends return to the shelves.  I refused to buy the Universe figures out of protest (and not wanting to start another collection in another scale), so it's been a long time since I bought a Marvel figure (other than the occasional two pack).

Terrax was one of my biggest wants and he doesn't disappoint.  He's going to look great on the Galactus / FF / Space shelf.  Klaw's a little disappointing in his size, but at least it's good to get another classic villian on the shelves (same with Constrictor, although I like him better.  Must be the better costume).  Steve's got a big noggin and seems to be oversized just a tad.  Hope's ok I guess, but I don't really know who she is as I'm more of a DC comic reader nowadays.  Iron Man I only really bought for the BAF piece, but it's a good representation of the Extremis armor. 

Wave 2 looks even better.  Two members of the Wrecking Crew, probably my biggest wants in the line over the years, 2 classic female villians in Madam Masque and Viper plus a classic villian BAF.  Bucky Cap is looking good also.

Time to start thinking about rearranging the shelves as I'm quickly running out of room between all the Marvel and DC 6" figures I have (with a **** ton more coming).

Hey Mikey,

Want to sell your Iron Man?  That and Rodgers are the only ones I really want from this wave and I don't need the packaging or BAF piece.  Let me know if we can work something out.

Spotted some of these between Walmart and Target.  The Hope Summers figure is really nice, and so is the Ghost Rider figure.  Not really digging the rest and not buying any.  Cool, but not my thing.  Still, I would think Legends fans must be really geeked about this line coming back with some strong offerings.
