Marvel Legends action figure reviews

Whether in the hands of Toy Biz or Hasbro, the Marvel Legends line has become synonymous with highly articulated 6″ versions of Marvel Comics heroes and villains. From classic A-list characters Spider-Man, Iron Man and Captain America to lesser-knowns like Machine Man, Sentry and Misty Knight, the Marvel Legends line taps into all corners of the Marvel Universe.

As one of my all-time favorite lines, I was thrilled when Hasbro recommitted to the line and began upping the ante with increased sculpting, accessories and riskier character selections. This is the series I’m always the most excited about adding new figures to my collection thanks to its gotta buy them all Build-A-Figure concept and diverse options.

While I started collecting the line right from the start of Toy Biz’s run right through to its changeover to Hasbro, the Marvel Legends figure reviews don’t begin until 2015’s kick-off with the Avengers theme waves. But on a slow week, I may go back through my collection for some archive reviews of older figures. Stay tuned true believers! I’ve switched up the order on the page to make the current year the most recent page of reviews to make things easier. Hope you enjoy!
