Not sure if this is the right thread. What do people think of the12" Marvel Legends Icons series? A local store had Dr. Doom and I was tempted. (it was on a half off table)
Thanks!

Jozef, I picked up the Doom (along with some others from that line) and he
is probably the best from that line though there are still plenty of things off
about him.

Except for it looking like he has a dove hidden under his helmet, Thor looks ok.

That Doom looks not-too-bad. I wonder, tho, why the designers put the
elbow articulation in front of the actual elbow joint of the armor?

awesome work...but I can't resist the feeling that Iron Man is dowsing Galactus with yellow mustard!
Agreed!

John, my only thought is that they wanted to keep the armor joints on the actual elbows and keep that look, though I'm sure they could've done something about that.
JPB, that hood seems too pointy to me and I often try to tuck it in somehow--was that your problem with it?
 
I don't like that his tunic is made of a rubbery material--he'd be more posable with a cloth one.
Beast's face is off, his legs are too thin--but at least he's not a cat.
Captain America has what I call Elvis face. His body looks like it was designed by Bart Sears--a little too much muscle in the shoulders.
Iron Man's too skinny when next to the others and his hands don't bend back all the way. His face plate is removable though.
Hulk isn't that bad, but if you want him very flexible, this figure isn't the one you want.
Hips! Arrgghh. And, of course, the helmet wings. But it was Thor, so...

Yes that was the problem Gary but i sorted it out it looks better now.Iron-Man was the same also with parts on those struts on his shoulders they were a bit bent,i didn't go for the Thor or Captain America but if you can get them in a good pose without them falling over they don't look that bad,iv'e got that many models i don't know where to put them all.
