They are mutants, Homo superior, gifted with strange and fantastic abilities simply by virtue of their genetic makeup. There is Wolverine, who with animal-keen senses, a healing factor and razor-sharp claws, helps protect a world that fears and hates mutant. The raging Cajun Gambit, who is able to charge inanimate objects with explosively released biokinetic energy, always has a card up his sleeve. The Beast, who dedicates his superhuman agility, strength, speed, endurance and dexterity - along his superior intellect - to the creation of a better world for man and mutant. The young woman known only as Rogue has the power to absorb other's memories and talents through touch. Together they battle Magneto, the self-anointed Master of Magnetism, who dedicates his life to the advancement of Homo Superior, even if he must bring about humanity's downfall to ensure the ascendance of mutantkind.

X-Men Legends Box set = good starter for collecting figures
By Victor H. Moreno
For those who are looking into collecting Marvel Legends action figures, this is an excellent starter set. It comes with 3 of the best figures of the mutant team The X-Men that Toy Biz has made. Here's a list:
Beast - Excellent overlooked figure with excellent poseability. He can even be posed standing on one hand and stay there indefinitely. This version includes a pair of eyeglasses to hearken to the characters' literary bent and a cloth doctor's overcoat for those wanting to make note of the fact he is Dr. Henry McCoy.
Gambit - Essentially the same figure as the Marvel Legends 4 Gambit but has a much better paint job and a pleather overcoat that makes the figure resemble his comci counterpart most closely of anyone in this set.
Wolverine - This is an unmasked variant of the Marvel Legends 3 Wolverine. That figure originally had an Unmasked chase variant with a different head that proved popular enough to retail for hundreds of dollars on the secondary market. Toy Biz wisely created a similar figure for this set as a way of placating collectors with a feral headsculpt. Excellent figure, but it is the exact same figure as ML3 only witha different head.
Magneto - Also the exact same figure as Marvel Legends 3 Magneto, only with an open mouthed "angry" head sculpt.
Rogue - The "chase" piece in this set. It can only be obtained in this set. It has the same body as Marvel Legends 4 Elektra. Overly articulated in my opinion and the face is off-putting, but it will likely be the only Rogue figure Toy Biz makes so for completionists this is a must have.
The set also comes with a poster book and four "X" logo X-Men stands for display purposes.

Great Collection
By V. Houangvilay
This is an amazing collection of action figures for X-men fans. It includes fan favorites Gambit Rogue Wolverine and Beast along with Magneto. Rogue's face is a little off and she towers over Gambit (as does Wolverine) but it's nice to see really nice sculpts of these great characters. Definitely a great addition to anyone's collection and an awesome low price.

X-Quisite Set For "Legends" Beginners Like Myself
By K. Fontenot
I've bought quite a few action figures in my day, but this is only the second Marvel Legends set that I've purchased. The first set was the "Urban Legends" set that featured Daredevil, Punisher, Spidey, and Elektra. That set was okay, but this X-Men Legends pack is heads and tails above it. First of all, it combines many of my favorite mutants in one set at a low price. I've got Nightcrawler from "X-2" and now I need to get my hands on a good Cyclops figure. Anyway, this set is really nice.Now, here's a breakdown of the good and bad of each figure:Beast-The best figure in the set. The lab coat and glasses are a nice touch, but what I really like is how easy it is to pose the big guy. You even have the option of opening or closing his mouth. Nothing too wrong with this figure.Gambit-Almost as good as Beast. His trenchcoat is really nice, and his bo and charged playing cards are a plus. The only bad thing about this figure is that Gambit doesn't hold his cards very well.Magneto and Wolverine-I lumped these two together because both of them are pretty nice figures. I especially love Magneto's cape. Wolverine's claws were a little bent when I took him out of the box, but with a little work they should be okay. Both of these figures are very poseable, and Wolverine strikes a nice pose on his display stand. I prefer displaying Magneto holding his helmet instead of him wearing it, because the helmet doesn't fit him quite right on the figure I received. It keeps popping up and sits at an odd angle on his head.Rogue-Unfortunately, the worst figure in the bunch. As with Elektra in the "Urban Legends" pack, she just has too many points of articulation. I'd rather a well-crafted figure with less moving parts than a flimsy one with too many. Overall, the figure isn't too terrible, but her wrists and forearms are weak and she isn't that easy to pose. She's still worth buying the set, however.The poster book is a nice touch, and the display stands actually fit the characters, unlike the ones in the "Urban Legends" pack.This set is a really good buy at a budget price. It's great for beginners and folks who want to collect as many of their heroes as possible for as little cash as possible.
