X-Men Legends Box set = good starter for collecting figures, February 1, 2004
Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars
For those who are looking into collecting Marvel Legends action figures, this is an excellent starter set. It comes with 3 of the best figures of the mutant team The X-Men that Toy Biz has made. Here's a list:Beast - Excellent overlooked figure with excellent poseability. He can even be posed standing on one hand and stay there indefinitely. This version includes a pair of eyeglasses to hearken to the characters' literary bent and a cloth doctor's overcoat for those wanting to make note of the fact he is Dr. Henry McCoy. Gambit - Essentially the same figure as the Marvel Legends 4 Gambit but has a much better paint job and a pleather overcoat that makes the figure resemble his comci counterpart most closely of anyone in this set. Wolverine - This is an unmasked variant of the Marvel Legends 3 Wolverine. That figure originally had an Unmasked chase variant with a different head that proved popular enough to retail for hundreds of dollars on the secondary market. Toy Biz wisely created a similar figure for this set as a way of placating collectors with a feral headsculpt. Excellent figure, but it is the exact same figure as ML3 only witha different head. Magneto - Also the exact same figure as Marvel Legends 3 Magneto, only with an open mouthed "angry" head sculpt. Rogue - The "chase" piece in this set. It can only be obtained in this set. It has the same body as Marvel Legends 4 Elektra. Overly articulated in my opinion and the face is off-putting, but it will likely be the only Rogue figure Toy Biz makes so for completionists this is a must have. The set also comes with a poster book and four "X" logo X-Men stands for display purposes.
