Marvel Legends Ares Series
August 3, 2008
Get Ares of the Mighty Avengers as the next Build-A-Figure in the Hasbro Marvel Legends line.
A lot of previews were made at the San Diego Comic Con - movie trailers, comics, and toy lineups. For the Marvel Legends line under Hasbro - since we couldn’t be at the SDCC…view the hi-res images at Marvelousnews.com

Though I’m not a big fan of Hasbro Marvel Legends (yeah, I’m a Toybiz ML believer) - it’s interesting to see the old Toybiz scuplts get re-released. And I was also planning on modding some of my spares figs to look like Ares - but the release news beat me to it.
Not that I plan to buy it (especially with Hasbro’s notorious reputation for making their current ML lines out-of-scale with previous releases) - Ares being a BAF, is over-sized. Still, will wait and see…again, Hasbro. Ngrrr…
I agree with you about the quality of the Hasbro figures - it’s definitely lacking. But I caved a while back and bought the Avengers figures they came out with, even though they’re more cartoonish than Toybiz’s. I guess I want to be as complete as possible. But Ares as a BAF might work - he is a god, and if it’s not too big then a slightly larger figure could be acceptable.
Yeah, flashcap - I also have some Hasbro figures that, though are very lacking, were necessary to complete the collection : )
We’ll just wait and see as to how big Ares really is - right now, to complete my New Avengers line, I’m modding my own Ares from a Hasbro Juggernaut X3 figure.
Will post pics of it soon.
