This feels like a hundred years ago and didn't really happen anyway, but it used to seem like Marvel Legends and Marvel Select were going to run on different tracks; with Select featuring less conventional choices and larger characters, like Mephisto or the Watcher. Neither of whom have gotten a Legend figure to date, by the way: I think the last Select I picked up (at full price, anyway) was the Destroyer, another big'un. In some alternate timeline, maybe Legends kept the regular sized figures and Select was down the roster to Xemnu the Titan or Gorgilla...maybe not.
Ha! Hey, you really can't blame Sable for the new rise of Nazis and Nazi sympathizers. Why it never occurred to her to come and hunt in the South I don't know.
ReplyDeletePoor Blade. I know there's a Wesley Snipes tax evasion joke in there somewhere. A Twilight one too. Imagine Blade having hunted those glittery, glowing emo fucks right? He'd be so hated by tweens and teens alike.
"Too-Moor" Ha!
Said it before and I'll say it again- Silver Sable's severely underrated. The only problem is the voice I hear her lines in is similar to the one I use for Sat.
ReplyDeleteWould love to see an inter-company crossover battle between Too-Moor and Chemo.
Arrgh, Toomorr vs. Chemo would be tough to watch. Chemo's on top early, and just demolishes the surrounding area while beating Toomorr's ass. (Occasionally, Chemo will get distracted and start punching a building, the ground, himself...) When Toomorr looks shrunken and beat, he was playing rope-a-dope and comes back harder! Ooh, you hate to see that.
ReplyDeleteSable's basically a queen, isn't she? I like the idea that she's someone completely organized and together, and she really likes and admires Spidey, who is just a sloppy bastard. The man's never had a plan last 30 seconds into it, so he's the king of just winging it. It would drive her up a wall eventually: I ship it, just to watch it collapse.
We don't see Blade next time, but he comes up...
Something like that- she's definitely a head of state and can't be voted out but I think it's more of a 'ruling family' thing.
ReplyDeleteNever really shipped her and Spidey though- she had a couple different boyfriends in her own book and (funny enough) I think Spidey's looking for more of a commitment.
