Being serious there actually was a Moon Knight 2099, or maybe she still exists? 2099 persists as an alternate reality but it isn't the same 2099 as from the '90s comics, I haven't read any of it but it seems mostly similar to the old 2099 so maybe the characters all still exist albeit with different histories. Either way, Moon Knight 2099 only showed up briefly and she was like the protector of Attilan on the moon or something but that was all we got. I was always curious to learn more but we never did. |

Talk about the upcoming X-Men wave(s), I'm going to break my thoughts down on what likely hood of figures with a "decent" chance we will see between 2018-2020, at one wave per year and a Deadpool wave. Unless otherwise noted it would be their iconic look and will not take into account Build a Figures
Pretty much close to 100% chance as possible: Storm (Jim Lee), Psylocke, Gambit, Bishop, Nightcrawler, Beast, X-23(All New Wolverine look), Mystique 90% chance: Professor X 80% chance: Angel (only lower because we do have an Archangel already), Colossus, Iceman, Lady Deathstrike, Domino, Magneto, Sinister(The classic Colossus and Iceman sculpts might come a little later but it would finish out the Jim Lee era looks) 50% chance: Storm (First Appearance) X-23 (X-23 Appearance), Lady Deathstrike, Forge, Banshee, Madrox, Moonstar, White Queen Emma Frost, Cannonball, Sabretooth, Pyro, Avalanche 33% chance: Monet, Blink, Sunspot, Wolfsbane, Modern OR First Appearance Rogue, Sebastian Shaw, Omega Red, Longshot, Emplate Short of BAF I honestly can't think of anyone who has an even possible chance of being made, though goodness knows there's tons I'd like to see Last edited by Captain Nash; 06-26-2017 at 07:27 AM.. |

I think basically Gambit replaced the "cool" factor of his character. While bringing in some mystery too. Unfortunately it also brought a decade of angst with Rogue which ruined both characters.

What they need to do is give us a Giant Sized X-Men Box Set of Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Banshee, and Thunderbird. The regular wave can then be the Jim Lee Storm, Gambit, Wolverine, and Beast with Apocalypse (using the Colosus body), classic Mystique, and Mr Sinister, with Goblin Queen Madelynn as the BAF.

She's no different than the likes of Red She-Hulk or Angela. Does it really matter? For one thing, we would be getting Apocalypse in that wave with the larger body. Would you rather they wasted that money to turn the Colossus body into a BAF body just so you could feel an accomplishment of getting a bigger BAF? You are still getting the same figures regardless of who the BAF is. Secondly, Madelynn's cape alone would require specific tooling.

If they stuck to the classic Goblyn Queen design, the underboob would definitely present a problem as a brick and mortar figure. also it's likely the torn frontal loin cloth look would be a problem, as it leaves bare hips. Now you put that in an SDCC exclusive I don't see an issue. Also if you were to retool her outfit or lack there off, maybe. And I say all this as someone who would love for her to get done, and also as the fact that Selene, my most wanted figure now, would present similar issues (though on a lesser scale, still bondage queen look is problamatic.)

You are still getting the same figures regardless of who the BAF is. Secondly, Madelynn's cape alone would require specific tooling. On the cape issue they could just use hobgoblins cape ( from space venom wave ) and a little bit of retooling on the angela body. I think the underboob would be an issue but could be worked around with a removeable weapon strap of some kind so the soccer mom groups wouldnt be able to bitch ( kinda shocked they didnt go postal over angela ).

Ben Reilly is back as Scarlet Spider and is leading the book although Kain will appear in the series as well.

I haven't started reading it yet but I remember back when they announced the series they showed off a pretty bad looking new costume on the cover of issue 1 and then after excessive fan backlash they revealed an update where it was just the classic Scarlet Spider suit. Going off of that I'd assume that the classic suit shows up somehow but he may have a new main suit.

Just because I love Carnage ( when he's full blown evil not semi-good )

Especially Dani Moonstar who technically already has a Legends figure, Hasbro just needs to release it. |

So is the Dark Phoenix 2 pack out yet or not? I keep hearing 8/1 street date, but see some people got them already. Hmm...might need to make a few calls! I know my local TRU won't have them (and if they did they'd say they can't let them go, but then later they put them out early and I let them know, they say it was a mistake...yeah sure!) I know of another TRU, a bit out of ways from location, but they always have a lot of ML stuff in stock.

The street date is 8/1, but in the end, it is up to your local TRU if they want to sell it to you or not. I picked up mine last week (go back a couple of pages on this thread,) but a lot of people online have claimed that TRU refused to sell it to them when they tried to purchase theirs. So it all just comes down to that store's management and how closely they follow policies and street dates.

You say that, but the number of times I've had a manager tell me that they can't sell me an item that made it to the floor before street-date says otherwise...

I don't understand why there are street dates for to--err COLLECTIBLES anyways. I understand the whole release date for music and movies due to piracy, but you can't pirate a figure (not in the way you could a video or audio file.)
I have to agree with Nitelife, if it's on the shelf they should sell it. Edit: I guess in the case of massive Star Wars release days they used to have I could understand, that is a whole line for a movie, and nothing for that line is supposed to go out before that date, but it's a bit silly to put a street date for every different pack or wave that a line has (provided it's not the same street date like the aforementioned Star Wars releases) |
