I would be impressed if you could do a X-men team at $200

[whonuimarshall]

Damn son, this audio split is rough 😂😂

[misterbear]

I would love to see a Star Wars Black series on a budget!

[Nebula_Knux]

I was exclusively a Black Series collector until I started watching your Legends videos, I now nearly have both teams from the Airport fight in Civil War. It's a really good line though and I'm happy I got into it.

[rulerofrandomness]

I’d love to see more videos like this for building different teams at varying budgets. Maybe have a main team but throw in different versions to mix and match like keep the big three then use different avengers members to show options of who could be used and obtained at a reasonable price.

[unclecreed]

Can you do this with Avengers villians? I would like to see who you pick.

[somnambulnation]

Should just get the core movie team. Out of the ones you list, get Iron Man, Cap, Thor, Black Widow and Hulk for $164 and that leaves you $36 for a complete Hawkeye. Antman, Wasp, and Black Panther came later, so get them later and Vision is no good without Scarlet Witch, so pick them up together lastly. Great video concept. Would like to see more like this.

[tonymeechie]

do an x-men set now, this was awesome!

[lovehandelvslumberzacks]

You should try to do Guardians of the Galaxy list. They are my favorite Marvel team

[thisguy]

This is a nice list and all but here's my picks;
-Gamerverse Ironman 
-Endgame Captain America
-80th Anniversary Thor 
-Odin Wave Hawkeye 
-Crimson Dynamo Wave Black Widow 
-Hulkbuster Wave Vision 
-3 pack Scarlet Witch
-3 Pack Quicklisver
-Cull Obsidian Wave Antman
-Ultron Wave Wasp

-K.O. 80th Hulk

All of these should cost about a bit over $200-220 + shipping

Suggest going to "your" city comic book/ toy shops. Sometimes you can find "loose" figures for close to the $20 -$30

[craigcharlesworth]

If you were happy to have some old Toy Biz figures in there, buy loose and incomplete figures, experiment with some Chinese KOs and wait for the right auctions, you could do this easily. I have never paid more than £20 (about $25) for a Legend, which has helped me build a bigger and more varied collection. Sure, you end up with some slightly janky Toy Biz era figures that don't look as good as the modern equivalents but if you push those to the back you can still have a good looking display.

Love this channel and just used this to build my marvel legends starter team after a five year hiatus from the hobby. Keep up the good work!

When I built my Avengers, I started before the MCU was even out, but added some upgraded when I could afford them. You can go a few ways with this, and if I touch on anything you said, I do apologize as the video didnt have sound. I do see what you were doing. I wanted a comic book version of my Avengers and may work on an MCU version later. We had a few of the same figs, the Cap and Widow figs. My original Avengers didnt include Spidey or, for obvious reasons. The Toy Biz Vision, Hawkeye, Thor and Panther are still in my Avengers set. Then we go hap hazard, and I am going to take a little heat for a couple. Iron Man, as of this time, is from the Toy Biz Face Off series, as is Hulk. Scarlet Witch is the current Legends figure, as is Beast and Wonderman. Toy Biz Ms Marvel and Falcon are also there. I really wanted the BAF Giant Man, but its not happening in my lifetime. But, for Ant Man and the Wasp, here comes my heat, I used Heroclix figs. They are size appropriate, and in great poses. They really work. I want to upgrade Wonder Man and hopefully we get a re-release of Tigra. I had to pull She Hulk and Spectrum from the A Force set. My Hercules is from the Mattel wave, as is Black Knight and Quicksilver. I want BK and Qucky upgraded to the new figs. Just addes Jocasta, too. I admit, I did like your picks, but I dont want to mix comic and MCU versions. Trust me, I know all about trying to budget for figures. Most of mine are older. I get lucky with yard sales and flea markets, sometimes. Or businesses going out of sale. Also, look for used figure lots on Ebay. Sometimes, you can find a good handful of great figures at really good prices. Thats how I did my Justice League.

This style video is really cool, should do a Star Wars one!!

[puffpuffpassmako]

I'm old enough to remember when the "Big Three" were Spiderman, Hulk and Wolverine

[dogmd]

That Spidey is most definitely a bootleg lol

[Phantom]

ooooh, nice. This vids cool not just for budgeting but also for website resources, I'm a new collector and had no idea ActionFigure411 and Mercari were a thing but I'll def be checking them out now. Would love to see more of these budget challenge videos, a villains shelf, a Spider-Man shelf, X-men, FF, etc.

I’d like to see a Black Series Sequel or Original Trilogy set for under $200
