On the link site, Puck is listed as being the larger scale, 6 inch figure line. They ARE bringing the old Legends figure line back and he's one of them.

No, I would look again. That Puck pictured above is for Marvel Universe. They revealed three Marvel Legends for Wave 3: US Agent, Blade, and Mystique, as well as revealing Hyperion for a 2013 release. Wave 1 of Marvel Legends is already out here, and Wave 2 has been available to pre-order for a couple of months. Puck is not in those sets.

Okay, I finally found a nice close up of these online. (thank you actionfigureinsider.com)

Newly announced minimates from Diamond Select Toys. Heather Hudson as Vindicator and I assume that's Box (shudder,shudder- I stopped reading Alpha Flight when JB left)

You know how I often talk of how utterly mind boggling it is to me that characters I created are, to fans and readers, every bit as "real" as characters created by Lee and Kirby and Ditko and all the rest?Well, the dark cloud outside that silver lining is, of course, that anything that gets done to my characters after I let go of them is also "real".

Thanks, Lars! While I'm usually happy to see AF toys, I gotta ask: Why that Vindicator and THAT Box??

Don't you guys get it? It's a "Worst of Alpha Flight" series!
I hear they're doing Puck next...

The "reveal" with Puck was the moment I stopped reading the post-me ALPHA FLIGHT. Where the heck did that come from? After all, I'd had Puck actually NAME his condition, achondroplasia, in his solo issue!!The suddenly white beard made no sense, either. He was supposed to be fifty!

I can only imagine how much that moment had to hurt to read that 'reveal'.

I can't say it actually HURT, Caleb, but it was a cascade of WTFs!When I let go of the characters, I of course knew changes would happen. I just sort of assumed those changes would make some kind of SENSE! Instead, ALPHA FLIGHT became The Book Where People Die, and The Book Where Disabilities Get "Fixed".
