Product Description

They are mutants, Homo superior, gifted with strange and fantastic abilities simply by virtue of their genetic makeup. There is Wolverine, who with animal-keen senses, a healing factor and razor-sharp claws, helps protect a world that fears and hates mutant. The raging Cajun Gambit, who is able to charge inanimate objects with explosively released biokinetic energy, always has a card up his sleeve. The Beast, who dedicates his superhuman agility, strength, speed, endurance and dexterity - along his superior intellect - to the creation of a better world for man and mutant. The young woman known only as Rogue has the power to absorb other's memories and talents through touch. Together they battle Magneto, the self-anointed Master of Magnetism, who dedicates his life to the advancement of Homo Superior, even if he must bring about humanity's downfall to ensure the ascendance of mutantkind.

This review is from: Marvel Legends X-Men Legends 5 Pack Action Figures - Gambit, Magneto, Beast, Rogue and Wolverine Plus Special Poster Book (Toy)

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.

This is an amazing collection of action figures for X-men fans. It includes fan favorites Gambit Rogue Wolverine and Beast along with Magneto. Rogue's face is a little off and she towers over Gambit (as does Wolverine) but it's nice to see really nice sculpts of these great characters. Definitely a great addition to anyone's collection and an awesome low price.

Rouge- Not for me. Good only for a collection. Can't stand right.

Gambit- O.K., not real good but not bad either. Very posable.

Wolverine-Preety good. His claws tend to bend sometimes.

Beast- Great, absolutley great. Won't fall down unless you want him to. He looks great. One of the 2 best in the pack.

Magneto- The other best in the pack. His suit is awesome. Good posability, but not so much where he will fall over, just like Beast.
