Since its inception in 2007, the Marvel Legends series has entered its eighteenth year, standing as an undefeated evergreen in the world of Marvel action figures. The series utilizes the perfect 1:12 scale for handheld play, merging flexible articulation and intricate details into 6-inch figures. Its vast character selection is a major highlight, allowing fans to easily collect their favorite characters. Whether it's a righteous superhero or a villain you love to hate, everyone has a place in Marvel Legends. The more you collect, the more fun it is.
This new cardback series, in addition to the equally outstanding figures themselves, includes a to-scale mini accessory printed with a comic book cover. Whether you have the character hold it in a reading pose or simply use it as a display piece, the effect is fantastic! Without further ado, let's dive into today's exciting unboxing!
▼Here are the six stars of today's unboxing. They all feature uniform cardback packaging with character portraits from the comics printed on the back. The beautiful presentation truly has great collection value.
▼"Ultimate Miles Morales Spider-Man", a teenager from Brooklyn in the parallel Ultimate Universe—Earth-1610. After the death of Peter Parker, he became the new generation's Spider-Man. His suit is based on a red and black color scheme. In addition to basic abilities like web-slinging, wall-crawling, and Spider-Sense, Miles possesses unique powers such as the paralyzing Venom Strike and camouflage invisibility. He later entered Earth-616, where he and the main universe's Peter fight crime and maintain peace in the city as independent Spider-Men.
▼Based on his comic book appearance, this figure recreates his teenage persona. The patterns on his suit are fully rendered with printing.
▼It includes two head sculpts, also made with printed details: one unmasked and one masked.
▼The exclusive mini comic accessory features the cover of "Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man," published in 2014.
▼The figure itself, of course, maintains the excellent tradition of the Marvel Legends series—superb articulation! This body even uses the new pinless joint version and features a drop-down hip mechanism, making it an absolute thrill to play with!
▼With multiple hand parts, you can effortlessly create all sorts of leaping and swinging poses!
▼You absolutely must get this figure to experience this high degree of freedom and satisfaction for yourself!
▼"Banshee", real name Sean Cassidy, is a mutant with the ability to generate a high-frequency sonic scream. Besides attacking enemies and shattering objects, he can use his sound waves to fly. He later joined the X-Men, where his gentle, open-minded personality and sense of responsibility made him an excellent teacher for guiding new members.
▼The sculpt features Banshee's classic yellow and green costume. The wings used for flight are recreated with a synthetic fabric material.
▼It comes with two interchangeable head sculpts—one calm and one in a sonic scream state. The facial features on both are presented with printing.
▼The mini comic included is the special issue "Giant-Size X-Men," published in 1975, a masterpiece that brought the "X-Men" series back to its peak.
▼The glider wings are connected to the arms and legs with joints, which don't excessively hinder articulation, making it even better to pose.
▼By skillfully adjusting the joints, you can achieve his classic screaming flight pose. This is a must-have for veteran fans!
▼"Ultimate Iron Man", Antonio "Tony" Stark from the Ultimate Universe, Earth-1610. A gifted prodigy from a young age, he was later diagnosed with a brain tumor (Note). After a series of events, Tony built his unique Iron Man armor, hoping to control the tumor on one hand, and on the other, to lead the world toward a more perfect future under the superhero name "Iron Man."
Note: The tumor in Tony's brain is the key to his innate super-intelligence and abilities. Even more surprisingly, the tumor itself is actually an Infinity Stone.
▼Compared to the main universe version, the Ultimate Iron Man armor has a grander, more rugged appearance, with more angular lines and contours. Paired with a mature and stable color scheme, it's a refreshing take.
▼The head sculpt faithfully reproduces this unique design's lines.
▼It includes a mini comic of "Ultimate Iron Man," published by Marvel in 2006.
▼In contrast to the streamlined feel of the main universe version, the Ultimate version features more diverse lines and richer layering.
▼By making good use of the articulated joints all over the body, you can create a variety of dynamic poses.
▼Do you like this distinctive Ultimate Iron Man?
▼"ROM: Space Knight", based on the protagonist of the comic of the same name. To help his home planet Galador fight against the evil Dire Wraiths, he voluntarily transformed his body into a mechanical lifeform, becoming a Space Knight who hunts the Dire Wraiths to the ends of the universe!
▼This figure marks ROM's debut in the Marvel Legends series. It uses a very dazzling silver paint to express his metallic texture. The design style, which mixes mechanical elements with defined muscle curves, has a certain retro feel.
▼The head sculpt's eyes are rendered with printing, and the overall style is simple and powerful.
▼It comes with a mini comic accessory of the first issue of "ROM," a work published by Marvel in 1979 to accompany the toy.
▼It includes ROM's two common weapons: the "Neutralizer" and the "Energy Analyzer."
▼Not only is the articulation excellent, but the figure's balance is also quite good. That's Marvel Legends for you!
▼The included effect part can be used with the weapons. Fans of ROM definitely can't miss this!
▼"Adam Warlock", an artificial being created by the scientists of the Enclave, was initially called "Him." He later broke free from the Enclave and became a guardian of the universe under the name Adam Warlock. He has collaborated with Earth's Avengers on multiple occasions and even formed the Infinity Watch to safeguard the Infinity Gems, entrusting the gems to different individuals for safekeeping to prevent a terrifying threat like Thanos from misusing their power again.
▼Adopting his widely recognized comic book appearance, the figure comes with his signature staff. The drape and wrinkles of the cape are also rendered with considerable realism.
▼The head sculpt is a clear homage to the moment he donned the Infinity Gauntlet and uttered the classic line, "Let the conflict END!"
▼It includes a mini comic accessory of "The Infinity Gauntlet," published in 1991. Thanos's ferocious face is clearly visible.
▼Using a new body mold, this is another great figure that balances articulation and aesthetics!
▼It also comes with an interchangeable Infinity Gauntlet part, which is closely associated with Adam Warlock, allowing you to perfectly recreate the classic scene mentioned above!
▼With this accessory, any figure in your collection can now be the wielder of the Infinity Gems!
▼"Daken (Wolverine)", the son of Logan and a Japanese woman named Itsu. His birth name is Akihiro. He inherited his father's mutant gifts of bone claws and a super healing factor. Additionally, he was born with the unique ability of pheromone manipulation. However, due to his mixed heritage, he was called "Daken" (meaning "useless dog" or "mongrel" in Japanese) from a young age. He holds complex, contradictory emotions toward his biological father and has tried to kill Logan several times. This figure is based on his appearance from the period when he was recruited by Norman Osborn to join the Dark Avengers as Wolverine.
▼This figure recreates his Wolverine costume while retaining his left arm tattoo and a claw configuration different from Logan's. It can be considered the final piece of the puzzle for collecting the Dark Avengers.
▼Two emotionally charged head sculpts are included. Both the masked head and the unmasked head with a Mohawk hairstyle are superbly executed. This is an absolute must-have masterpiece for any collection!
▼It comes with a mini comic accessory of "Dark Avengers," published in 2009.
"See that, old man? I'm on the cover!"
▼The body mold is not the previously used Logan body; it uses a standard build to represent his physique.
▼The clawed hands come with options for two claws extended or all three fully extended.
▼And of course, the articulation gets a big thumbs up!
▼Swing those sharp claws with abandon! Dynamic poses are an absolute breeze. This... is Marvel Legends! 
▼These six mini comic accessories are a must-have for your collection!
▼Finally, let's look at the back. Did you sharp-eyed fans notice the sculpted staples on the spine?
▼That concludes our unboxing report of the Marvel Legends Mini Comic Book Cardback series.
