Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Union Jack

Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Union Jack

I know I've mentioned this before, but I am not always too familiar with whom these Comics characters are. Especially when they go off into people like union Jack here. That said, I often don't mind picking them up for the sake of a BAF that I do care about. Or sometimes just because they seem neat. Union Jack pretty much falls into the latter, though there is a bit fo the former there. What I can gather from reading some summaries of his story online, he's sort of like a cross between Captain America and James Bond. There have…
Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Rescue

Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Rescue

A neat little surprise of sorts in Avengers: Endgame, though not totally unexpected, was the appearance of Rescue. Rescue is the name of Pepper Potts, when she dons her own Iron Man style armor. She sort of does this briefly in Iron Man 3, though not voluntarily, since Tony was protecting her from the collapsing Stark mansion. At the end of that film, thanks to the Extremis formula, she also gets a bit of a taste for being the hero. Plus, Rescue is a "thing from the comics". Basically, it's not a huge surprise or stretch that Pepper Potts would…
Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Rock Python

Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Rock Python

So, this one will be pretty short and to the point for sure. Rock Python is definitely a beyond nobody level character in the grand scheme of things. Hell, I keep wanting to call him Rock Viper. There's not anything particularly new or special aside from his goofy snake helmet head. It's not even particularly snakey either, unlike say King Cobra or Cottonmouth. Aside from the Smart Hulk BAF piece, he is mostly notable for being part of the Serpent Society. I really think it's neat how they keep slipping these guys in, since they also are kind of a…
Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – War Machine MK006

Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – War Machine MK006

I'm assuming it's War Machine Mark 6 here since he has a bit 006 emblazoned on his chest and the previous releases have different numbers. Anyway, moving on from some of the stuff that's less interesting in this wave, the first of several MCU characters from this wave is War Machine. I have to admit, for some reason I kept thinking Rhodes didn't survive the Infinity War snap. I guess it felt redundant to have Iron Man and War Machine survive. But he did, and he ended up with some new armor for Endgame. Over the course of the films,…
Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Loki (Comic)

Marvel Legends – Smart Hulk Wave – Loki (Comic)

I'm not super keen on Loki's comic book look. He's a little too, court jester in style for my liking. Still, he's kind of a big part of the whole Thor and Asgardian world, being Thor's brother and all, so not having a Loki to go with my other Asgardians was kind of a hole in need of filling. Plus, frankly, I kind of wanted everyone else in the wave. I'm sure someone who keeps better track than I do would know which "buck" this is, but it's pretty much just "Bulky dude in spandex". The figure is honestly pretty…
