Ok, I've really been holding off on these since they are tougher to get here in the US, but after weeks and months of reading through the Kubrick thread here, and now seeing these pictures, I'm really getting tempted.  I realize that I'm too far behind (and it would be too expensive) to totally "catch up", but I wouldn't mind starting to get a few of these (without the chases obviously).  Other than the early bird set and chase figures, can most of these be bought at somewhat reasonable prices?  I still might just try to hunt me down the first Han that was released, just to see what they are like.  If nothing else, he's my favorite character, and it doesn't hurt to have one (or does it....addiction rising.. ).  Great pics by the way, this line sure looks spiffy.

Not exactly "Marvel Legends" figure news, but for those who are interested...Marvel.com updated their site to a new look today, and if you visit their biographies section, it has been revamped as well....kind of neat.  Sorry a bit off topic, but thought some of you might be interested.

I think it would be really nice to have a good comic version of MJ as well.  It is nice that we have the Spidey Classics line for stuff like this, but hopefully they will start releasing a few more bad guys, and big supporting characters like MJ, instead of a thousand different Spidey variations.  I realize there will and probably has to be some sort of Spidey in every wave, but the rest could be baddies and other characters.

Yeah, I'm glad KG is under contract for awhile yet, and he seems to be "at home" in Minnesota now too.  I would think Spree would stick around too, he's in a good situation and things nearly worked out to get to the Finals this year.  I actually posted the question to David Aldridge in chat today who would be the favorites, and he named Minny out West (and maybe San Antonio), as well as Detroit and Indiana in the East (obviously).

I have also ready what you have been hearing, that the Wolves should be after Erick Dampier.  He might be looking for too much $, since the Warriors can pay him more, so that might not happen.  Wally World seems to always be on the block...but if they got the #3 and Antonio Davis might not be too bad...could bring some decent young talent in.  I don't mind Wally though, sometimes it seems like he wants to shoot too much, but he sure did well every so often in the playoffs and is still fairly young (Spree and Sammy aren't getting any younger).

I'm with the Kobe to the east scenarios too, although I'd just like to see him and Shaq on different teams regardless of where it is.  I'm not sure what Kobe wants...he could obviously have a great chance at a championship right away in San Antonio, but he'd be a 1-2 combo again, and from what we consistently hear he wants to have "his team".  In that scenario he'd be better off going somewhere like the Clips or Phoenix, where he would be the main man with other supporting cast.  It will be interesting to see what he decides....and if he is able to play next year at all.  They said on ESPN this morning that the trial could be until November so he could miss the first month of the season at least the way it is.

Oh, and here is the article that accompanied the picture...explaining their source, etc.:

Possible Look at The Thing?

I'll have to keep an eye out now that the Black Costume Spidey/Rhino series is hitting.  Out of curiosity (I got into Spidey figs a little late), they haven't actually done an "Ultimate Spider-man" Spidey yet have they?  Now with this Ultimate Rhino coming out, and I believe and Ultimate Lizard coming up, I was wondering if they had actually done Spidey yet.  That's a figure I wouldn't mind seeing done.

I read (while lurking at RS) that some people are getting "processing" or "pending" on their VOTC (1st wave) orders from places like EE and Kebco, has anyone here gotten that as well?  Hopefully these will start showing up/shipping soon.
