you can order from most places amazon, bigbadtoystore.com, entertainment earth, and dorksidetoys. I would also try checking out a local bestbuy they have last xmen wave for $17.99 also they have marvel legends online for preorder.

I saw Forge, Blink, and Skullbuster on clearance at Best Buy this week.

You could buy the Juggernaut and Colossus 2 pack, then Beast you kinda have to get lucky with, especially Storm. There is a Jean Grey 3 pack for preorder that gives you the 90s version of them. Also there's a Magneto 3 pack on Amazon

Yeah, or you could just buy the black and red one from the Apocalypse wave, he's 24 on Amazon as well. Walgreens would be a decent bet for Magic and Mystique

I think this is probably the best advice. Check locally through OfferUp, letgo, and Craigslist. Sometime people are selling figures under retail. Beast is probably going to continue to get expensive. Storm is best to get now since she's just out. Eventually she'll be scarce like most X-Men figures.

Have you checked your local Walmarts and Targets?

Rogue will be expensive right now so you could try to keep an eye out for a decent deal, buy the select version and modify it to fit with legends scale, or just wait it out for them to inevitably re-release her

Beast has been out for a while so maybe him. But it all comes down to who you like and which would make you happy. They’re both awesome figures

Hm tips I could offer.

Not all x men will sell out, it may make sense to wait it out on some for the price drop, i.e the vintage iceman.

Beast, gambit and storm and newer release wait till amazon gets it back in stock, which they will.

More expensive pieces are best got in lots with other figures you may or may not want.

I'd say that the most helpful tip for you to start collecting would be to buy the figures.

Get the easy ones like Cyclops and Rogue outta the way first. Lots of pegwarmers.
