Plus Famtastic Four, X-Men and pretty much everything else.<\/p>\n<p>Because they're so cheap, and excellent figures, I've usually ended up getting Marvel Legends just to fill the addiction. I'm most fond of the BAFs. Huge figures are awesome, just like huge monsters that loom above you. Ah well. I wasn't planning on buying too many of them anyway.<\/p>\n<p>I still don't believe it.
