Shartimus never invented neither jack, nor shit. I enjoy his enthusiasm and some of his videos but they are commercial -soul less and un--original as fuck.
I thoroughly enjoy this channel. Not because I ever owned any of these toys, nor did I know anyone who did, but because I find the background stories fascinating. I have one friend who collected the Comics, but he was heavily into Judge Dredd and Star Trek. I am a collector of 1960s toys, so it is always grand to see other peoples' passions on display. Great work. Thank you.
Great list! Very fair assessment and lots of points I completely agree with! Poor Ant-Man, he deserves a better representation in the Legends line for sure! Maybe next years Wasp gives us some hope.
We are All Shocked that He has the Nerve to Still show his Face on UA-cam after He was Exposed for being Super Racist! We Figured this Channel would have been taken Down by now, No one Watch or Subscribe!!!!
I'm not an ML collector but I wanted to watch this to find out which is the best Hawkeye ML figure. The town I live/work in is canonically Hawkeye's home town from the comics so I wanted a figure of him to display at work.
Great list, I have 7/10. My Hulk is the recent Diamond Select,my Hawkeye is the older version with the darker purple colour scheme and my Spiderman is the retro carded 90s animation style. Dr Strange,Black Widow and the 20th Anniversary Cap are 3 of the best Marvel Legends of all time regardless of being Avengers.
A great list, Tony, enjoyed your video and I’m glad to have almost all of this figures. In my opinion though, -although- I also really enjoy that Spidey and that generous-head-providing Black Widow, I think their Torso articulation lacks range. It’s almost incredible to have G.I. Joe figures from the same company who can do full splits (even if I never pose figures in the Van Damme pose nor doing ballet…) and better crunch forward. Valaverse, Jada and any other company which provides figures with ball Diaphragm and ball waist are beating ML’s Spider Man’s and Black Widow’s articulation. Great for those companies and their figures, great for us. But a shame that the most agile characters from Marvel have less range in their Hasbro iterations. And for no justifiable reason.
Nice list! I'm a huge fan of the grey 90s Black Widow figure with the jetpack. (I think she was a Walmart exclusive...?) She also has those fantastic wrist gun accessories!
Great video Tony. No one can effectively argue with any of your selections. Each choice is a stalwart character on the team, thus having a good representation in action figure form is a must. Looking back on your list I find it disappointing that Hasbro ML have yet to produce a comic based Falcon from the 70's with Redwing. The character had one of the coolest costumes in comics back then.
Really good video. I agree with you to 90%. I'd change your Hulk to the 2-pack with Wolverine. Funny enough, since I have 8 of these on the list, 20 minutes ago I decided to buy this Black Widow instead of Hawkeye (I save him to next month). So I did a buy it now on eBay. Slowly completing my Avengers collection.
Great team of top ten. I definitely put the Black Widow, 20 anniversary Capt. Am and Thor on my list. This video makes me want to an Avengers team for my toy room, but for now, seeing your list will do.
I have an Avengers Team of 75 different Avengers on Earth 616. Okay, 5 are different Hank Pym, 2 different Carol Danvers, 2 different Scott Lang. Also 9 Customs, and 3 Fudges. So it's not perfect. It has gotten a little better as I got Comics versions of Sersi and Moondragon this year. Soon will have Justice.
I have all of these except Falcon ang Hulk. I'll patiently wait for the more classic Falcon look with deep V neck and shorter wings. My Hulk is the 2pack Hulk that came with Wolverine.
I'm proud to say that I have most of these figures making up my personal Avengers collection. I haven't yet picked up Hawkeye and the Hulk I use is the two-pack with Wolverine, but otherwise it's spot on to the list.
Interesting choice with The Hulk. I was curious what you'd go with. I was never a big Avengers fan, aside from Cap...I do like that 20th anniversary Cap though - the blues are comic accurate for sure. Fun episode man. -Dustin
Yeah, I mean That Captain America and Black Widow are a tie for me. Posing and doing stuff with both of them is non stop fun. But this year Widow just dominates all the legends.
Great list, Tony! It really just goes to show that Hasbro can produce good, or even great, figures when the suits in the boardrooms and the bean counters actually allow them to. My dream Avengers figure from them would be a slightest retooled 80th Anniversary Thor updated with pinless arms and legs, a soft goods cloth cape, clip on lightning accessories, 2 headsculpts (a stoic & an angry one), and both a regular and spinning Mjolnir accessory.
Im watching this August 2024..& i agree with 99.9% of your selections.. The ONLY disagreements i have is that IMO the 20th Anniversary Hulk is a better choice than the SDCC. version.. the head sculpts for the 20th Anniversary version being the deciding factor for me. Also as far as the "RED HEADED STEP CHILD"😂..80th Anniversary Captain America..i still prefer it to the 20th Anniversary version..if ONLY because i FAILED to preorder it because i had just picked up the 80th Anniversary version on the aftermarket a few weeks before the preorder went up..& i had also picked up a shoulder harness for it on the aftermarket. Btw as far as 80th Anniversary Iron Man which i own as well..its ANOTHER example of Marvel Legends making the FIRST version the best.. the SAME way that they did with the Walgreens Fantastic Four. & then releasing multiple INFERIOR versions afterwards. Other than that..i AGREE 💯 with all the rest of your picks Anyways great video brother..im looking forward to more of your Marvel Legends reviews 👑 Btw Hulk is my FAVORITE Marvel Comics character as well
Excellent list. I agree with most of it would just replace Falcon with the new Vision, though perhaps Vision wasn't out yet when you made this video. I would also swap out your Hulk for the 80th Marvel Anniversary Hulk, and Amazing Fantasy Spiderman for the Renew Your Vows Spiderman (though admittedly I go back and forth on these two as I love them both along with the Amazing Friends Spiderman). Thor would be higher on my list if the cape was lighter and more pliable, and if the head could actually rotate. My order would be: 1. Spiderman 2. Black Widow 3. Captain America 4. Hulk 5. Iron Man 6. Black Panther 7. Thor 8. Dr Strange 9. Vision 10. Hawkeye
🤔 Glad you sorted the wheat from chaff. When toy biz started this line it was quality jollity staggered releases. Hasblo just crap out same bucks and takes a Talker decade to complete even basic teams. By then you have moved house and sold half the bastards out of frustration or boredom.
Mcu hulk 2. Should be Rick Jones explaining to Bruce the gamma bomb spies and the cover up of course lead by the leader for a battle in the desert 🏜. Oppenheimer is the best hulk film
Great video. I would swap your SDCC 90's hulk for the 80 years Hulk from the Wolverine 1st appearance 2 pack. It has a more vibrant green color and a much more classic head sculpt. I would also veto your Amazing Fantasy Spider-Man. He's a great figure, but as you noted, this depiction is from when he was a teenager, and that was way before he was ever an active Avenger in the comics. I might suggest the Renew Your Vows Spider-Man, but as with Wolverine, I don't really see him as a true Avenger. Technically, I feel the same way about Doctor Strange as well. Being a memebr of the Avengers is somehow less special if practically every single Marvel hero is on the roster. The MCU has kind of blurred those lines irreparably, though. I would insert any one of several classic Avengers in your Spidey slot, or possibly Dr. Strange. Hercules from the retro card line, the revised Tigra from the West Coast Avengers 5 pack, or the Black Knight. Honorable mentions Jocasta, Mocking Bird, Hank Pym, and Wonderman from the Puff Adder Wave.
The recent Target Excusive Ant-Man is genuinely just as good as a few of the earlier entrants to this chart, I think. So, SO much better than that retro-carded repaint. Probably a pain in the arse to get down there though, I'm sure... It was in general outside the US - They didn't even sell it on the UK pulse site like they have previous exclusives, so ended up paying through the nose. Admittedly shit accessory-wise, though, you just get a couple extra hands.
This is almost exactly the same as my list. I have to go with the Hulk from the Wolverine two pack, however. A lighter shade of green and a more "classic" head sculpt. You can't go wrong with any of these choices, though.
Agree on bascially the entire list! I do like the darker color on the older Cap just for me but recognize the new one is better in many ways. Great list!
“As invented by shartimusprime” 😂
and so? go make your own top 10
Shartimus never invented neither jack, nor shit. I enjoy his enthusiasm and some of his videos but they are commercial -soul less and un--original as fuck.
Little unneeded dig at Shartimus lol. I like toe articulation on certain figures like Spiderman and Beast, but wouldn't want it on all figs.
I thoroughly enjoy this channel. Not because I ever owned any of these toys, nor did I know anyone who did, but because I find the background stories fascinating.

It touched my heart that your favorite Avenger is Hulk
A great list, Tony, enjoyed your video and I’m glad to have almost all of this figures.

That Wasp is a good choice. Too bad they didn't toss her in w/ the GiantMan HasLab.
Great video Tony. No one can effectively argue with any of your selections. Each choice is a stalwart character on the team, thus having a good representation in action figure form is a must.

Happy birthday Scarlett Johansson yesterday 💪🇦🇺🍻🇺🇸

those Cap and Iron man figures are nice. Definately definitive versions of the characters from when I was a kid.
A great Top Ten Marvel Legends Avengers Figures video Tony, but not necessarily in the right order! :)
Analog toy fans assemble!!!!!!
Interesting choice with The Hulk. I was curious what you'd go with. I was never a big Avengers fan, aside from Cap...I do like that 20th anniversary Cap though - the blues are comic accurate for sure.
Fun episode man.
-Dustin
A great list. Most of the picks are my definitives as well. A great video and choices.
Hulk is also my favorite character of all time
Great video and great list of top 10 Marvel Legends figures!
Great picks. For my money, the best Hulk is the 80th anniversary two-pack Hulk, and the best Ultron is the Ursa Major BAF version.
Yeah, I mean That Captain America and Black Widow are a tie for me. Posing and doing stuff with both of them is non stop fun. But this year Widow just dominates all the legends.
That line with the toe articulation, the delivery of it, lol I was dying 😂
I bought 3 of the black widow so I agree with you.
Great list. I would say these truly are the best options we have for these characters available
Great list, Tony! It really just goes to show that Hasbro can produce good, or even great, figures when the suits in the boardrooms and the bean counters actually allow them to.
My dream Avengers figure from them would be a slightest retooled 80th Anniversary Thor updated with pinless arms and legs, a soft goods cloth cape, clip on lightning accessories, 2 headsculpts (a stoic & an angry one), and both a regular and spinning Mjolnir accessory.
I love that Thor figure concept
Very nice list! Got me curious who are the toy designers behind each figure in that top 10 list.
Im watching this August 2024..& i agree with 99.9% of your selections..
The ONLY disagreements i have is that IMO the 20th Anniversary Hulk is a better choice than the SDCC. version.. the head sculpts for the 20th Anniversary version being the deciding factor for me.

Anyways great video brother..im looking forward to more of your Marvel Legends reviews 👑
Btw Hulk is my FAVORITE Marvel Comics character as well

The amazing friends Spider-Man is the Spider-Man I have for my avengers shelf because of the vibrant colors
🤔 Glad you sorted the wheat from chaff. When toy biz started this line it was quality jollity staggered releases. Hasblo just crap out same bucks and takes a Talker decade to complete even basic teams. By then you have moved house and sold half the bastards out of frustration or boredom.

Thanks for reminding me that I need to open my 60th anniversary Black Widow!
No foot pegs for Hawkeye’s Cycle? That is a bummer. Nice picks, Tony!
Was never into marvel legends but I have to admit these are really nicely done action figures and excellent choices for the top ten
My favourite will always be MODOK!
Tony I just picked up that Black Widow she is so fun to pose, she's awesome!!!!!
Guess I'm in the minority. I much prefer the yellow instead of gold, Iron Man
As a ginger stepchild I support that hurtful comment 😢😂
Excellent choices. I’m glad Thor is high on the list .
The black widow looks so nice if the helix head fite on you van make a yelena custom or paint it red for a neater short hair style
I can’t complain about any of your choices.
Great list. 80th Hulk is still the best look for me but sdcc is second to me
Awesome video, Tony. Thank you!

_Veto?_ Is that a thing we can do on social media?
You're a huge Hulk fan too?? 😮
The recent Target Excusive Ant-Man is genuinely just as good as a few of the earlier entrants to this chart, I think. So, SO much better than that retro-carded repaint.

These are marvelous!
Sweet
Superb, always calming to watch your review, like ASMR. All makes sense. Thumbs up!
This is almost exactly the same as my list. I have to go with the Hulk from the Wolverine two pack, however. A lighter shade of green and a more "classic" head sculpt. You can't go wrong with any of these choices, though.
Great list and great video. Love the little subtle jokes you threw in.
Agree on bascially the entire list! I do like the darker color on the older Cap just for me but recognize the new one is better in many ways. Great list!
Nice list.👍
Great Top 10 list!!! I love that Amazing Fantasy Spider-man Figure!!!
Yeah that black widow is extremely well made. I’m bummed that I missed out on the cap and strange. 🫤
