I think we've met before... Are you from Kentucky?
Anyway, to answer your questions:

1. If you intend to play Vset figures in an organized event like Gencon, do you need to have the officially printed vset cards? If so how can I acquire the cards? I donated to the first 2 vsets so I have those but I need the rest.
No, you can print them out from the PDFs, which can be found here:

2. There are several new vsets in the database. Are all of the vsets legal in tournament competition? Team building is a bit more difficult now with so many sets of cards to pick from.
Yes, they're all legal. There is actually a discussion going on right now about how it can be difficult for new/returning/inexperienced players to get into the game because of how many options there are. I will probably be writing a kind of "beginners strategy guide" to help with that, to kind of explain each faction and the competitive options therein. It's just an idea I had today, but I think it's a good one, so keep an eye out for that.

3. What is legacy format?
It's an unofficial format made from a lot of house rules by some guys in Tennessee. It's played locally there, but mostly it's played on VASSAL. They banned some WotC figures, changed some rules, and for the most part don't use the V-sets. They also have their own custom set. It's not really played outside of VASSAL and Jamestown, TN, but if you do want more info about it, check the threads made by ultrastar in the VASSAL forum here on Bloomilk.

4. Is Bloomilk the best resource for this game now?
At the moment, yes. SWMGamers.com is actually getting pretty heavily revamped, though, to hopefully be a better resource for direction. Bloomilk is the most active forum though.
Welcome back to the game!
