Canceled Marvel Legends

Series 13
Themed as "Bring on the Bad Guys", the Series 13 wave of Toybiz Legends was intended to exclusively release classic villain character, with each figure including an additional henchman army builder with limited articulation. While the wave itself did release, it did so with a slightly changed line-up of characters, and the henchmen were dropped entirely. Originally, Abomination would have included a Skrull Warrior, Blackheart would have had a Brood Drone, Green Goblin would have included an AIM Scientist, Lady Deathstrike would have had a Hand Ninja, Loki would have included a Hydra Agent, and Pyro would have had a Hellfire Club Guard. Due to the increasing price of oil, including additional full-sized pack-in figures was too expensive and the concept was dropped, and instead the wave released with the Onslaught Build-A-Figure. Prototypes of these figures were shown during Toybiz's final SDCC 2006 retrospective of their time with the Marvel License.

Additionally, the wave was originally scheduled to include another figure, who did not release alongside all the others for the Onslaught wave; Crimson Dynamo, who would have included a Doombot pack in figure. The Dynamo was based on the 90's design for the Valentin Shatalov version of the character. The reason for this figure's cancellation was not given, although the design would eventually see release under Hasbro's run in the Iron Man: Armored Avenger 6" toyline several years later.

Series 14
Another wave that hit retail but featured a number of changes, once the 14th series of Legends was determined to feature Mojo as the Build-A-Figure, it was considered that each figure in the wave would include a non-articulated accessory of one of the X-Babies or Little 'Vengers; cartoon children versions of famous heroes used in programming airing throughout the Mojoworld. Much like the Henchmen pack-ins from Series 13, the rising cost of oil kept the PVC child characters from making the budget to get into the wave. These figures were first shown off at SDCC 2006, where they were also displayed with an Iron Kid and Child Hawkeye who was not part of the original planned line-up.

Additionally, a first appearance yellow costumed Daredevil was initially planned for this wave, and was scrapped alongside the X-Babies for unknown reasons. He was replaced with the first appearance Iron Man instead in the final wave.

Avengers Quinjet BAF
At one point, Toybiz had planned out a full sized Avengers Quinjet that was going to be split out among four separate waves due to the immensity of the vehicle and the need to have it open and interact with figures. The BAF was canceled during the planning stages due to the increased oil costs that would have made it prohibitively expensive to produce. The Quinjet was announced having already been canceled at SDCC 2006, during Toybiz's Marvel Legends panel discussing their plans for the final year of their time with the Marvel license, where members of the Toybiz team discussed several scrapped long-term plans as a goodbye tour. While no images have ever surfaced, a single physical version was prototyped out, as revealed by members of the Toybiz team during a 2008 SDCC retrospective on the company and the line.

Individual Cancellations
First shown at SDCC 2006, at one point Toybiz was looking into making a figure of Forbush Man and Frog Thor. It is unclear how these figures would have been released - the prototype unveiled for Forbush Man appears to have the same limited articulation scheme that they had been experimenting with for the pack-in henchmen, while Frog Thor was a solid unarticulated PVC piece, meaning both were likely meant to be pack-ins for otherwise unknown figures.

During a Toybiz Retrospective panel at SDCC 2008, various former members of the Marvel Legends team revealed several figures that had been in the works, mostly in early concept phases, before Hasbro had taken over the line. A Dire Wraith had made it as far as the design and prototype phase, while Darkhawk, a line of Marvel Micronauts, an Absorbing Man Build-a-Figure, and robot variations of Wolverine and Captain America had been concepted out.

2007 Toyfare Fan Choice Poll
Early into Hasbro's control of the line in 2007, they debuted a Fan Choice Poll through Toyfare Magazine; where fans would look on a full wave of prototyped out figures and vote for the single figure they would want to see made. The winner of the poll was the Age of Apocalypse version of Sunfire, and was sold as a Hasbro Toy Shop online exclusive initially. After poor sales, full cases of Sunfire was shipped out to discount outlets such as TJ Maxx and Ollies. As of the current state of the line, the X-Men Uniform Gambit is the only costume to still not receive a figure in the Legends line, while Lilandra is the only fully unmade character; though a new headsculpt featuring her was released with the Infinite Series Walgreens exclusive Mystique. The rest of the line-up has since been made, but all on entirely different molds, with these prototypes never seeing release.

Fin Fang Foom Wave
Originally, the Fin Fang Foom series had four additional figures in it, before a last minute cycle swapped them out for reasons still unknown. The wave was going to include an artist specific version of Hulk based on the modern work of Ed McGuinness and a classic version of the Valkyrie. While both were removed from the line, the sculpt for Hulk quickly reappeared shortly afterwards as a Target exclusive Build-A-Figure. Both Valkyrie and the original green version of the Hulk mold would later appear together as one of the final packs in the Toys'R'Us exclusive two pack series during the final days of Hasbro's initial run on Marvel Legends.

Also originally planned for the line was a Red King, who has never received any kind of release since, although some prototypes were made and ultimately sold on ebay. A Bi-Beast was planned and bumped, then later reappeared with slight retooling to turn his pants into a more classicly accurate pair of shorts at Hasbro's infamous SDCC 2009 Preview Event. Like Red King, multiple Bi-Beast prototypes ended up sold on ebay in both his pants and shorts variants.

SDCC 2009 Previews Night
On Previews Night for SDCC 2009, Hasbro unveiled a display case filled with numerous new, unannounced figures. It was intended that this would be another Fan Choice poll, but this wasn't clearly communicated at the time, and it became ambiguous which figures from the show were intended for release, and which were simply prototypes - made all the more muddy as a vocal backlash pointed out the line-up included prominent characters like Deadpool and Black Widow that Hasbro intended to make regardless of any vote. Of the figures on-display, Deadpool and Warpath would see release as a two-pack, alongside the Valkyrie and Hulk from above, and the aforementioned Black Widow was released alongside a Winter Soldier not part of this line-up at all. The tooling for the Constrictor and Wolverine on display would end up getting touched up slightly, and released during the Return of Marvel Legends relaunch of the line a few years later.
