Marvel Legends Rhino & Leader

 

I have several of these Marvel Legends Spider-Man Retro Card figures, this Rhino a recent purchase and the first I've opened. I never had the BAF Rhino from 2015, but I like the more classic presentation here. Butterfly joints at the shoulders would have been nice, but I do like the updated, classic portraits, one neutral and one grimacing.

For whatever reason, I pulled out my Ben Reilly Spider-Man from 2015 while I was familiarizing myself with Rhino, capturing a couple decent charging poses...

The Renew Your Vows/Spider-Man & Spinneret 2pk that dropped at Target recently is probably the Spider-Man to pull out first after opening this retro card Rhino, though. He's my new go-to Spidey. I love having that toe articulation. I still like the Marvel Legends Spider-Man figures I have on that Ben Reilly Spider-Man buck, which debuted on the Pizza Spidey.

Mr. Hyde, Thing, Hulk. and Venompool all crowd my NECA Street Scene Diorama...

Rhino and The Leader are important characters for me in conjunction with the Hulk because of Marvel Super-Heroes #76, one of my earliest comic books as a child in the '70s, and first exposure to both villains. Because of this, I knew I'd be busting out my 80th Anniversary Hulk ...!

I bought this Leader figure loose on eBay, which looks very much like he did in that issue of Marvel Super-Heroes I mentioned earlier. I had taken to giving him the orange gun included with my MOTU Origins Webstor- a perfect fit!

I love being able to pair Leader with my 80th Anniversary Hulk,

where's he's been since I got him...

And finally, because it's such a great figure, Leader with my Marvel Select Immortal Hulk ...!
