The token will enter the battlefield when the spell resolves and, the next time any player would receive priority, you'd have to choose one of the legendary permanents to stay on the battlefield. The copies would then be put into your graveyard.
This is governed by rule 704.5j:
If a player controls two or more legendary permanents with the same name, that player chooses one of them, and the rest are put into their owners’ graveyards.
This will happen the next time you would receive priority because it's a state-based action:
704.3. Whenever a player would get priority (see rule 117, “Timing and Priority”), the game checks for any of the listed conditions for state-based actions, then performs all applicable state-based actions simultaneously as a single event.[...]
As a side note, like @Gendolkari mentioned, this interaction is no different than simply casting another copy of a legendary permanent you already have on the battlefield. In this case, the exact same rulings will apply.

Contrast with Helm of the Host, which explicitly makes the copy non-legendary: "create a token that's a copy of equipped creature, except the token isn't legendary if equipped creature is legendary."

I don't think it's the next time that you receive priority, it's the next time that a player receives priority. Otherwise an opposing player could add a spell or ability to the stack while there are two instances of the legendary creature, which cannot happen.
