- Magick is out at Walgreens in either November or December. Super-Skrull was supposed to be out in December as well but nobody knows what happened to him right now. - The movie Captain Marvel is gonna have a green and silver variant that will be a Target exclusive with an interchangeable Doctor Minerva headsculpt. - The next vintage wave will indeed be X-Men-themed. Wolverine is the only confirmed character but Rektangular speculates that we might see the recent Cyclops in there since he sold very fast and was hard to find. Ditto for an update of the Rocket Raccoon-wave Jean Grey. Classic Magneto may be there as well.

Never been a fan of the Punisher battle Mask- to me it always reminds me of when an actor can't pull off the fighting choreography and stunts of their character so they have him throw on a mask (i.e. Sean Connery in Entrapment)... But it's a cool accessory- so i tried it out on SDCC Crossbones.

So we've gotten Wolverine, Gambit, Psylocke, Cyclops, Jean, Archangel, Bishop and Cable. Just about all we're missing now are Beast and new 90s versions of Storm, Iceman and Jubilee. And I could very easily see the Juggernaut wave Iceman getting retooled to resemble his more classic look. |

Nope. I hated that travesty that called itself Power Rangers. That video completely misses the whole point of what Power Rangers is supposed to be.
If you want to see how a dark and serious season of grown-ups wearing spandex fighting monsters is supposed to be, watch Gosei Sentai Dairanger. Or hell, watch some Kamen Rider series. If you want to see some non-Power Ranger fan's idiotic wet dream, watch that shitstain.

If the X-men vintage wave does come to fruition I would love to see the Dark Phoenix from the two pack repainted to be a green costumed Phoenix eventually. We defintaly need a new Iceman, Avalanche and Pyro (even though the Toy biz version holds up pretty well)

Loved that so much! wouldn't mind a full length version. But I'm not much of a PowerRangers fan- my boy watched it (starting from DinoThunder) and I bought him all the toys- but it was just very silly to me. THAT version though- EPIC! But i do notice a lot of PowerRanger fans that grew up watching it tend to really really hate that short.

Definitely the most interesting tidbit from the video. So if we go by the patterns of the previous vintage waves, we can assume six possible character slots. All will presumably be well-known or heavily spot-lighted characters. Of those six slots, at least one female character with the rest being male. All of the characters will be either repaints of existing characters or new characters reconstructed using existing figure parts.
- Wolverine (some sort of tweak or repaint of the recent Apocalypse wave one, possibly first appearance Wolverine) - Cyclops (rerelease of the Warlock wave figure with new accessories) - Jean Grey (repaint of the Rocket Raccoon wave figure with a new head) - Magneto (repaint of the Apocalypse wave Magneto in classic color scheme) - Iceman (retool of the Juggernaut wave Iceman with new, classic headsculpt) - Jubilee (retool of the BAF in classic color scheme) |

But on Legends front, I really would love another shot at that Cyclops. Saw him once, passed and regret it immensely. Hope the rumor is true. |

Cyclops in the Old Man Logan jacket I bet. I bought an extra OML just to do that, but haven’t found a cheap Scott yet.

Not likely, but I’d like to see a Weapon X Logan. |

Ditto. Especially since one of the repainted Adam Warlock heads they gave Archangel was definitely cartoon-inspired.

Exactly.

You know?
I get the feeling Hasbro might give us a more classic Iceman for the X-Men vintage wave, maybe even with effect parts. |

And speaking of Iceman, I made a custom Iceman based on his most recent costume design. It's not perfect, but I am happy with it. |

I feel like if we get a Cyclops in the vintage wave it will be an X-Factor Cyclops. Which would be cool, as i think that design was in the first wave of the 90's toys.
Wolverine is a lock. JL Jean Grey is rumored and a good choice. Normally I'd say only one female but the X-Men more than any other superhero group is known for so many of its female members, so I'm going to agree Jubilee or possible Storm as the second female. I think this is where we might see a classic Colossus or classic Iceman. And then definitely classic Magneto. I'd love to say Nightcrawler but I have a feeling Hasbro will want to hold him back to anchor an X-wave. |

We could get another Rogue considering her price right now.

Well they already announced a classic Magneto.
Hasbro seriously needs to just do a Giant Size box set.
