This was a great breakdown. Solid advice for new comers to the line. It's always great to see shepherding new collectors with advice, rather than gate keeping. Well done
Thank you!
Great video! Will definitely help new collectors looking to jump in and build a collection.
Thanks for checking it out!
The tide seems to be turning with so many approved retailers out there now. The recent waves seem like they are easily obtainable nowadays, and if you keep your eyes peeled they can be picked up for essentially the pre-sale price. It is getting to the point where putting that preorder money in a CD and earning 5% for a year+ then picking up the figures of interest from retailers/caballers may be the smartest move.
My personal rule is to not buy any figures for 100$ or more (dragons not included). At this point I have all the older figures I expect to and have a bunch of preorders, so I'll just save my money for whenever they release new goblins or a Figura Obscura Sasquatch.
I'm not convinced that 12 months from now we'll be in the same place in terms of ample oversupply. A lot of the figures that released in the last 12-18 months originally went up for PO during the insane collectibles boom of the pandemic. If retailers and resellers are stuck with too much product right now, I doubt they'll be willing to continue ordering at those same levels. It'll be very interesting to see where things go 12-18 months from now.
For a new collector i would recommend them to get an armored character, a skeleton, and a mount. Get those in those in hand and go from there. With all the new releases coming you might be better off waiting too.
Great variety!
After playing baldurs gate as wyll I had to get zende lol so much fun.
Your previous video is why I ranked Gorgo two pack so high on my get list as a new person. I waited in the Cabal until someone did it for $100 shipped and finally earlier this week someone did so I'm excited to get it into my hands later this week!
Good get! Enjoy, it really is what I would call "essential Legions" right now.
Superb video Bill!
Always great information and well thought out!
Thanks Cullun!
Excellent video and facts! I'd try to work in a troll in my budget.
Thank you!
For Mythic - I think i'd probably go as follows:
50 - Duban
100 - Duban & Xylernian Guard
200 - Duban, Skeleton(standard),Vargg, Samir/Arrizak
400 - Duban, Aracagorr/Azahazzar, Thraice/Samir/Arrizak, Tharnog/Kalizirr, Gorgo and Attila
It starts with getting the most figures for the price, then by 400 you are getting more elaboratd stuff. If that half giant builder was around, i'd probably put it throughout as from the 100 usd mark
Ogre scale builders are a great value at retail.
@@DorkLair indeed , due to my budget couldn't get any during the iss, hope some sellers grabbed that ogre 2 builder for resale
As a new collector, I suggest anything on the ogre scale. I absolutely love them. Kragnarr, Aracagorr, Azahazzar, the Half Giant. Also, any of the “Sir” figs.
I had an extra $200, so I purchased Mythic Legions: Poxxus Kalizirr, Mythic Legions: Poxxus Kalizirr, Poxxus Zende Amaanthyr, and Poxxus Tharnog from Big Bad Toy Store. They’re all in my pile of loot.
Awesome figure!
I don't see Duban getting a lot of love, but I always recommend him to newbs. For a $100 I'd go for Jjuno or Gwendolynne. $200 Atilla/Gorgo pack and the female Orc builder from WotA game. $400, Headless Horseman, Aracagor, Tharnog, Lijae, Thraice, weapons pack. Good video DorkLair!
Duban is so underrated
Duban is so well-executed from top-to-bottom. Amazing figure.
Another helpful & informative video.
Unless it’s something I’ve always wanted to get, I don’t preorder other toy lines but the addiction to Four Horsemen stuff means I preorder ALL their goodies.
Now I do get the itch & randomly buy more 4H figures.. new & old.
I gotta go to work now, only way to afford MORE !! 😆
Haha, expensive hobby for sure!
I would buy at seven skeletons and the moose.
I’d definitely stop up on poxxus while his cheap and the new dwarf pack
I luv your question. Barbarian builder.deluxe barbarian builder Attlus vers1 then the knight builder set with the baby blue chest😂 Great video again
Whats getting me now is the repaints. I like the new obscuras but i 1) dont have the room for 2 of the same figures 2) dont want to buy the same figure twice. So now i feel like i shouldnt jump on a obscura because i might like the repaint better. The krampus was the exception for me.
Yeah that's a tricky decision. If I were in that position I would buy the initial drop with the intention to sell it if I end up liking the retail version better, that way, even if I end up loosing a couple bucks, I'd get to experience the thing right away, but still ultimately end up with the one I want.
I focus more on new preorders than the older ones and i just picked up arracagorr and thraice so im picking my way thru the line but not trying to be a completionist .
Great approach
@@DorkLair its my philosophy on collecting after thirty years in the game
The Legion Builder markup seems a little crazy to me, but then I guess I really don't understand the choices the Horsemen make when it comes to distribution since after 20 years of doing this they still don't make stock available consistently.
There's never been a more ample supply of a variety of Legions readily available than right now.
@@DorkLair Sure, but that's less about an intentional change of strategy and more about a combination of other factors.
@@BetaRayBill32 They have been intentionally growing their retailer base for years.
@@DorkLair There certainly are more retailers than when I last bought some of these figures 5-6 years ago. I'm sure the retailer exclusives help and maybe they've done something to encourage retailer preorders. Still, the core of the line is built around preorders and FOMO when it seems as though they could operate more normally if they chose to. Boss Fight is more the business model I'm picturing.
@@BetaRayBill32 I disagree. I think they have very purposefully gotten to this point they are at now where there is very little risk in waiting for release, so no real need for FOMO at all.
Hey, Bill. Is there anywhere you can get Illythia, at a reasonable price? From a trusted store/site? Just wondering.
I have not seen here available in stock in a long time.
@@DorkLair Alright. New to Legions, so I just thought I’d ask. Thanks, regardless.
Hi I'm new to mythic legions but have been collecting since 2020, should I get illythia or a deluxe female orc?
Not sure if it's better to collect a goddess or a random army builder just because it's cheaper
Illythia is pretty expensive right now, so I'd probably lean towards the orc
Great video @dorklair
Thank you!
