Decided to give this it's own thread rather then resurrect the old Off Topic Off Topic one.

Forbidden Planet stores in the UK and Wal-Marts in the US have been getting shipments of ML5 recently!

Blade is insanely hard to find, only 200-600 have shipped so far (he was just delayed though... he's going to get easier to find as he's not the chase) Those who have him say he's insane! He puts the crappy Affleck Daredevil to shame (hopefully this means the new movie Punisher and any other movie legends will be ML quality as well)

I picked up Colosus and Sabretooth... both are insanely nice.

The hunt continues for Mr.Freeze and Blade (and possibly Cyclops and Archangel if the rumors are true XMC is released within the next two weeks)

Devil May Cry:the movie - A ViewAskew Production?

Yep, it has:
-Mr.Fantastic
-Nick Fury
-Silver Surfer w/Howard the Duck
-Sabretooth
-Colosus
-Blade
-Red Skull (chase, in like 1 of ever billion boxes)

Just remember, Archangel is not actually a "Legends" figure... he's shipping in the "X-Men Classics" line, which is like the Spider-man line: ML quality toys and articulation with extra somethings for the kiddies. (Archangel for example comes with a missle launcher.)

He's one per case so be prepared to hunt, but he uses the Silver Surfer body as a base (very high articulation) and has an impress wing span so it's worth it.

They're selling them (or will be as soon as more stock comes it) including Blade.

Thanks!
I just received an e-mail from mattel (they import the Marvel Legends and most of the Toy Biz offerings around here), and they say that we will get the Fourth Wave around December-January, and Wave V around March.
They also announced they will be bringing the Marvel Select and Marvel Studios line somewhere in 2004.

Can't wait for them! (Damn you Yankees, we have to wait a long ass time for the good toys, and you get them almost instantly, I envy you!)

colosus and sliver surfer look awesome, seems they're just missing red skull and nick fury from that batch.

If it makes you feel better Mattel is dragging it's feet in getting Mr.Freeze out in the states... he's bleeding everywhere in Asia but is just now showing up here and they've pissed off enough stores with the MOTU flop they're not exactly moving enough cases of Batman to get more then one Freeze per store per month.

But to make you feel worse: Colosus is a damn awesome toy... I haven't tried it yet since mine had a faulty wrist, but if on a proper base he's supposed to be able to hold most smaller figures... perfect for posing him about to throw Wolverine or maybe helping Toad get cookies from the top of the fridge.

Damn you Baghead! I had a dream last night, and it was a scary dream...

I had to sell my soul do some strange woman just for that Colossus figure, and after that selling it, the only thing I got, was a kick in the face, courtesy of Spider-Man...

On the other hand, I got my Redeemer today, wich is cool (I hate his "backpack", but the cape covers it fairly good).
I'm planning on getting the rest of the Spawn Reborn line (minus the Clown and Domina).
