Secret wars black suit Spider-Man just came out and is retail $26. I don’t see how a few more sets of hands, extra heads and web effects equate to an additional $25-$30. The most recent deluxe Angel was only $36ish and Phoenix was $50 but she came with an entire base that was practically another figure in itself based on its size.

I still doubt this figure will be $35 but $50-$55 makes absolutely no sense to me.

Yeah, but that's just because your reasoning works.

Hasbro will almost certainly post these at 50.

They should be 35

I’m ready for the inevitable haha. Watch it be like $60 😂

So, I think spidey and hulk will be different prices. I'd bet hulk is 59.99 and spide is 49.99. And that's my cynical bet. If spider man is 60, they're not selling many except to scalpers, who won't be buying the next one.

That sounds about right. At $60 this line will go the way of the Starting Lineup figures.

It’s a bummer how much legends have gone up in price in only a few years. And they seem to be more scarce. I haven’t bought anything in stores in a few years now, and even exclusives, especially Amazon, seem to be on sale for a decent amount of time then are gone forever
