-Toy Biz started making Legends.
-The they let Hasbro make them.
-Toy Biz then changed their name to Marvel Toys (Marvel must have bought the company)
-Toy Biz is now Marvel Toys.
-Marvel Toys is not making Marvel Legends anymore, they're making these independent figures now.
-Yeah, wierdos >_<

Well, now I know why Toy Biz made all those Marvel figs in the 90's!
All the boards I've nosed through make it seem like Marvel JUST NOW bought Toy Biz, buncha' mooks...
As long as I can get my hands on some O'Brians for my customs, they call themselves Magic Rainbow School Bus Express if they want!

Marvel Toys is ToyBiz. They changed their name, thats all. They used to make Marvel Legends, then the parent company sold the license to Hasbro. Now Marvel Toys is making TNA figs, Curious George, Code Lyco, and now the super awesome Legendary Comic Heroes.Mcdurg wrote:Oooooooooooooooh. So Marvel Toys did do legends then Tiy Biz did, THEN Hasbro took over and now Marvel does not do Marvel for some strange strange reason and they are doing indy now! AH HA!

Modern Marvel Girl - Hasbro is gonna make a female with a decent face but a stupid costume!
I like the look of the Hydra goon & Cyclops, Black Knight is OK but I think Jin's is better, Danger looks cool, Brood -who cares about Claremont's Alien rip-off, Colossus blah - looks like Reed Richard's head on him, Cap and Bucky look like the ambiguously Gay Duo.
What I want to know is when are these coming out?
Or was it a lie...

I had a conversation about the new Indie Line from Marvel Toys / ToyBiz with my friend Chet that owns the comic store I frequent and he brought up a good point - he thinks the big chain stores probably won't carry them because they don't have the huge appeal or fan base like Marvel and DC characters. I don't know if he's gonna be right about this but if you think about it he makes a strong argument. I bet Wal-Mart won't carry them.
