Mythic Legions: Rising Sons

[@Azkonar]

Broddr comes with a Torc, Torq, or Torque. They can be worn on the neck similar to a necklace or on the arm as a type of bracelet. In the tv show Vikings an arm ring is given to a boy as he becomes a man from his liege lord and it symbolizes the oath of loyalty and honoring one's vows.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Thanks for the insight. I thought it looked like an arm band but also too big here to actually stay on the arm maybe.

[@Jch79]

The “trinket” is a bracelet. It’s based on a wired Scandinavian/Viking style bracelet.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Thanks. I thought it looked familiar but I wasn't sure if it would fit on the figures or not.

[@ChrisP-jq5lg]

We have gotten round shields before with Adamonn and Cowarros. But this is a new one with swappable center pieces.

[@thestrongcollectors]

And did Illigar come with a round shield too?

House of the noble bear is my favorite faction for sure. That and the legion of Arythyr

[@thestrongcollectors]

Are you going all in? Or just all in on Noble Bear?

[@ControllerCritic]

@@thestrongcollectors I’m going to try to get most if not all of noble bear figs, then get several of the Arythyr faction figs. Then pick specific ones I like from other factions

[@thestrongcollectors]

Are you just getting started?

[@ControllerCritic]

@@thestrongcollectors yeah for the most part. I’ve been hunting down the older ones and was able to win a lot of the first releases on bids for decent prices. I think I need like 5 more from the faction to complete it

I am giving Jordan a pat in the back for not diving too deep to Mythic, but weird enuf sad he doesn't get our giddy when a new wave of Mythic is coming 😅 at least he buy some, I denie myself on the Savage Crucible, Crid Bible, the Dinosaur humanoids and the Dinorider like, budget are budget 😅 I too based the pronunciation on Eric or Jeremy but I don't memories all of them all 🤣 they are too many... Cool assestment guys and pick 🥰 The Minotaur has the some the Ogre Accessories, I pressume you guys don't have the Noble Beartsch 😊 anyway the hammer just have different handle / stick. Keeo it up guys 🙏

[@thestrongcollectors]

Thank you and yeah I go hard on mythic legions but pass on some of the other stuff. I did get a few Savage Crucible figures. I'm hoping they are the bled of Mythic type sculpt and characters with more Legends style or better articulation.

[@kieranemond]

I'm basically all in but just for Noble Bear figures. Some of the designs for Red Star are a little too mad for me. That bear looks insane.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I'm really surprised I like the Nobel Bear figures a little more than the Red Star figures. I thought it was going to be the opposite.

[@fortressmattimus3984]

On torn on this wave. I've only been collecting Legions for about 3 years, but this is easily my least favorite major wave they've done since then. On the one hand, I love the Noble Bears. I love the addition of Vikings and so many new 1.0 parts, and I'll be getting most of these. On the other hand, I'm very let down by the Red Sons. Maybe it's an expectation thing, but up to this point in Legions, it's all been familiar European medieval fantasy type of stuff, which is what I love and what I associate with fantasy. It's what I was surrounded by in the 80s and 90s. So the Red Sons is a far deviation from that, with these weird scorpion people and oni demons and stuff. I feel like these 2 factions are from completely different legends and don't really go together. The only one I'll be getting from them is Skapular. So where I usually go all in on these, I really only want half of the wave, but I do love that half I'm getting.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Honestly I prefer when I only like half so that I know I'm not blowing my whole budget in one go. For me, I really like that we're getting more Eastern parts added to the line. I've always loved knights but I've also always really liked ninja/samurai looks too.

[@fortressmattimus3984]

@@thestrongcollectors Yeah, that certainly seems to be the concessus. Most people seem to enjoy the exoticism of the Red Sons and I'm definitely in the minority here. If it's just a faction thing and it's confined to just the Red Sons, I'm fine with that because I still have 7 other to enjoy that are more apeealing to my idea of fantasy. So as long as it doesn't bleed over and dominate the line, then I'm good. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@vadoraid2517]

I’m disappointed in the black horse (too much plastic) not like the summrs last wave bishop & deacon. If he had material & real tassels, I’d have pre’d him but I got scapular . Bet the bear caused some cut corners on his design but worth it

[@thestrongcollectors]

I personally prefer the sculpted parts over the soft goods. I wasn't a fan of all the robe type stuff on Bishop.

[@vadoraid2517]

@@thestrongcollectors myeah, funny cause I’m leaning towards getting the horse 🤦🏻😆 after stewing on him I found him visually appealing (despite the plastic material)

[@thestrongcollectors]

ha. That's always my problem with the preorders. I see one and i'm like oh good, I can pass on this one and save some money for the next one. Then I look at it some more and listen to folks talk about the details and part swap potential and then it pulls me in and I start loving it.
