Legion of Superheroes

[Random Axe]

Now there's a boxed set I'd throw down 400 dollars for. Imagine getting all of those in one big display. I know Matty did one for the DC classics, but this would be the most ridiculously cool product they could put out.

The 18" body would be better.

[jds1911a1]

I would go for Cosmic Boy, Mon-el, Branic 5 for sure, I would LOVE to see then use the 12" body for Collosal Boy for scale but it likely wouldn't happen

[luclin999]

Speaking of the 7" vs 8" bodies, the Teen Titans are also going to be in the same boat with the earlier era (Robin, Speedy, Wonder Girl, Aqualad, Kid Flash) being appropriate for 7" bodies while the 80's Wolfman/Perez characters should definitely be on the 8" model.

[luclin999]

For the Legion, if they are doing the 70's-80's era from the picture above then definitely the 8" bodies.

However, a wave with just Superboy, Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad done in this style:



Or this (minus the creepy grins):



with the 7" bodies could be very cool..

These would be awesome! But I'd have to pick and choose just because of the number of figures involved. And would they do 8" or 7" "youth" bodies? I'd prefer 8". Plus I'd rather have the bearded Star Man instead of Star Boy.

And as a personal preference, I'd want painted chest hair on Timber Wolf like BBP did for the 6 Million Dollar Man. But I would have been more inclined to buy the Kiss figures if they had chest hair. It would have added to the quirky charm of the figures.

Wow. I'm ashamed to say this, but I cannot name a single one of these guys. I have no idea who they are.

Yeah I recognize maybe two of these, but I was never a fan of the teen type heroes, teen titains, etc. But I am all for FTC making as many as they can as long as it doesn't sacrifice any major characters being made.

I'd definitely buy all Legion figures in their 70s Cockrum/grell and 60s costumes but would rather have the Justice Society first.

To me the Legion characters were high school or late teens so I'd rather have them as 8" figures than the Titans bodies.

The Titans bodies, to me, are elementary to small junior high kid size.

I'm Pretty much with you all the way and like Anthony change those 3 costumes and i'm buying them all in 8" size, sell them as teen size and not so much.

If the Legion comes out and is done right (good sculpts and all costumed from the same era) then I would probably have to get all of them (and deal with my wife thinking that I have gone completely crazy).

Maybe using this Perez pic as a guide...

[megocrazy]

I was a huge Legion fan but from a business side I think the JSA makes more sense. It would definitely have to be the 70's suits for Legion.

A few of these costumes wouldn't fly...they're not as recognizable as some of the others and they were abandoned...Blok, Shadow Lass, and Timber Wolf. But otherwise all of the rest are classic designs from the mid 70s Dave Cockrum and Mike Grell era.

[VinMan]

/\ Totally agree with luclin. All should be costumed from the same era.... That pic should be the guide. Put me down for ALL of them.
First wave...
Lightning Lad
Karate Kid
Ultra Boy
Duo Damsel

Thats off the top of my head and does not even include my favorites.... Mon El, Wildfire, Element Lad.
Can't put all the "heavies" in Wave 1.

[luclin999]

A JSA Series of these figures would also be a must have for me..
