Whats Hot?
Marvel Legends Series 14 - aka - Mojo Series recently came out in the USA. The figure line up is of Longshot, Powerman (Luke Cage), Baron Zemo, Falcon, Psylocke, and First Appearance Ironman. Each figure except for Longshot has a variant, (Powerman - silver shirt variant, Baron Zemo - unmasked variant, Falcon - Classic costume variant, Psylocke - Crimson Dawn variant, and First Appearance Ironman - Golden variant.) Each figure contains a piece of the BAF- (Build-A-Figure) Mojo. Collect all 6 to build yourself a Marvel Legends Mojo figure.
Recent news is that the Mojo Series has been cancelled for import to Canada, as well as the Walmart exclusive Giant Man wave.
The Giant Man wave made a brief appearance here in the West Coast of Canada, (saw a few appear @ the Lansdowne Toys R Us.) This is a HUGE wave, with a total of 9 figures, with 2 variants. The line up consists of: Kitty Pride w/pack in Lockheed, Warbird, Thor, Antman, Captain Britian, Havok, Age of Apocalypse Sabretooth, Age of Apocalypse Wolverine aka Weapon X, and Sentry. Variants are a burnt face Weapon X, and a Bearded Sentry.
There was a running change to the Sentry figure, and he originally came out in what was described as a mustard yellow, which was changed to a more lemon yellow. In order to complete Giant man, the variant Burnt Face AoA Weapon X is needed, (he contains the right hand of GM.)
Marvel Legends Face-Off series doesn't look to be making any appearances in Canada, nor does Marvel Icons.
Whats Hard to find?
Well, here's my take on what is considered a tad more pricey due to rarity, from Series 1 to present.
Series 1
Stealth Ironman variant Gold Ironman variant Toad
Series 2
Trenchcoat Thing variant
Series 3
Unmasked Wovlerine variant
Series 4
Goliath Chase Series 5
Colossus Red Skull Chase
Honorable mentions: (Not as hard to find as the above, but still not common,) Silver Surfer Sabretooth
Series 6
Juggeranut Cable Deadpool Cable - Liefield Variant Dark Phoenix
Blond Black Widow variant (Yelena Bolova) Mohawk Storm variant Classic Captain America variant Modern Ironman
Series 9 - Galactus BAF Series
Grinning Bullseye variant Green First Appearance Hulk variant WarMachine
Series 10 - Sentinel BAF Series First Appearance Spiderman Angel Blue Costume variant Cyclops X Factor Costume variant
Series 11 - Legendary Riders
Young Outback Logan variant Ionic Wonderman variant
also, Scarlet Witch was recalled to due such a poor looking product. She can be a bit harder to find.
Series 12 - Apocolypse BAF series
Red Costumed, battle Damaged Iron Fist variant Unmasked Wolverine variant White Sasquatch varaint (Wendigo, I assume was the intended character.) Bald Bishop variant
X-23. It's been debated as to what exactly was considered the variant. It seems to be that in Canada, the Black costume is the variant, whereas in the USA, the purple costume in considered variant.
Series 13 - Onslaught BAF series
Abomination Melted face variant Loki Crown of Lies variant Unmasked Green Goblin variant
Giant man Series - Wal Mart exclusive
Making a very brief appearnace in Canada, still fairly sougt after by Canadian collectors.
There was a running change to the costume colours of Sentry. He first appeared with a mustard yellow, and light blue colour combo for his costume, but later come out with a lemon yellow and a darker blue.
Bearded Sentry variant Age of Apocolypse Weapon X burnt face variant
Series 14 - Mojo BAF
First appearance Iron Man (Gold) variant Unmasked Baron Zemo variant Powerman Luke Cage variant Alternate Costume Falcon variant Crimson Dawn Psylocke variant
Series 15 - MODAK BAF
Blue costume Wasp variant Red Costume Wasp variant Destroyer armour variant Black and White costume Spiderwoman variant Silver costume Moonknight variant Genius Captain Marvel variant
Marvel Legends Face-Off Series 1
Unmasked Captain Amerca vs Baron Von Strucker variant Unmasked Daredevil vs Kingpin variant Hulk vs Tall Head Leader variant
Marvel Legends Face-Off Series 2
Open Mouth Fisrst Appearance Wolverine vs Sabretooth Punisher vs Jigsaw variant Ironman vs Mandarin variant
WHEW!!! So, there is still more Marvel Legend stuff to list, such as their 12" line of Icons figures, not to mention the Boxed Sets, and other sister lines such as Fantastic Four Classics, Spiderman Classics, and Xmen Classics.
In months that have passed, I've befriended some very cool collectors. Hoping that we can all start helping each other, with the honour andrespect all we collectors strive to find in each other in our dealings, I'm doing my best to get this ghetto site in better shape to better serve our collecting needs.
I EXPECT all whom deal over this blog to be honest, trustworthy people when working deals with other collectors. It's a small world after all, seeing as someone here either knows me, or a fellow friend of mine in the local collecting world. No need to cultivate bad blood amongst friends all trying to help one another out.
The way I hope to work this is to have a 'Post' in relation to each specifc toy or collecting line. People can then post a 'comment' in regards to what they would like to buy/sell/trade, or their haves/wants in regards to the specific line.
That said, don't be shy. Let's see who's out there, and what they're into collecting.
Under the comments area of this section, please post your name, contact info, (email address is best I think,) and what lines of collecting you are into. I will show an example of this with the 1st post under this section, with my details.
