I never watched it coz I don't care about MMPR, but I remember a LOT flack was given to it for being cheesier than the tv show, which says a lot.

Dredd was so cheesy it could have been made by Kraft. I love the movie. It's beyond Star Wars in it's cheesiness. Silly dialog, clichés EVERYWHERE...

Loki was a PERFECT blend of comics and a realistic look.

Glad I didn't have to suffer with Klaw in tights
I was so pissed that they didn't give Zemo his costume. I had no idea that dude was even supposed to be Zemo in Civil War because he didn't resemble the character at all. He's supposed to be wearing a purple outfit with a pinkish mask. He was just a plain ordinary boring ass joe. If I want boring ass ordinary people with super powers I'll watch Heroes. Quote:
Can't wait to see the MCU version of Dr. Doom. I know he won't look like 15th century armor.

I was trying to come up with a list of X-Men characters that still need to be done or redone, and it got out of hand, not even counting alternate costumes for characters they've already gotten to, except Wolfsbane since the Dani alt head really seems like a cop out. I'm sure there are characters I missed since I go through long periods where I don't really read new comics
X-Men: Longshot Sage Banshee Thunderbird Marrow Dr. Reyes Maggot Thunderbird III Lifeguard Slipstream Armor Omega Sentinel Danger Hellion Elixir Jimmy Hudson X-Factor: Wolfsbane Random Shard Val Cooper X-Force: Siryn Rictor Feral Excalibur: Meggan Rachel Widget Cerise Daytripper Kylun Feron Pete Wisdom Micromax Generation X Chamber Husk Monet Skin Synch Mondo Penance Exiles: Nocturne Mimic Sunfire New Mutants: Magma Cypher And so many villains. They've done so many Spidey and Avengers villains but it really seems like they've been neglecting X-villains, all but 5 of them have been BaFs My Needs: FA Storm - BIG TIME NEED Shadowcat Banshee redone Lady Deathstrike redone Selene Exodus Nimrod, but i know it will take a BAF My higher priority Wants: Pyro redone Classic Avalanche Angel classic redone Classic White Queen Siryn Marrow Sebastian Shaw Lower Priority wants: Callisto Black Tom Cassidy Monet Cecelia Reyes Modern (anything Mike Carey's run all the way through Avengers) Rogue Modern Madrox HOX/POX Storm HOX/POX Cyclops Vulcan Ahab Goblin Queen Australian Outback Psylocke Hellion Elixir Emplate Dust Armor Rockslide Anole Mercury Surge Trevor Fitzroy Bastion Mastermind Donald Pierce Haven Pete Wisdom Adversary. I know this will likely never happen, but OMG it would be awesome. Also Any Acolytes, but too darn long of a list already to list them separately. And of course I'd still probably buy most any X-Men figures they put out, but these would be the ones I'm actively wanting. Also it's probable I'm forgetting someone(s) but I think this would square me away quite happily. |

I'm feeling this wave. Black Widow, Yelena, Red Guardian, and Taskmaster are easy buys. Already preordered this wave from Dorkside. My comic guy will be getting the other 4 figures.

Same bro. I know you and I have a shared love of MCU figs. But overall this wave looks really good. Especially widow, Taskmaster and guardian(wish he had a masked head but hey I ain’t complaining) hopefully they do a wave 2 or a exclusive set. Because I want a White widow and a Civil war widow haha.

I wish I was someone's "comic guy." Lol
I don't even have an MCU guy to trade with, so looks like I'm buying a wave for 3 figs and the BAF. HASBRO!!! (shakes fists violently and screams to the heavens) |

En Sabah Nerd ! I correct you, Hasbro over here in the UK gave us a wave of previously released figures in a different packaging but with no BAF piece which we're priced at £15, which gave you a figure and basic accessories i.e swappable head or hands. where as a stand ML with a BAF piece varies from £19.99-£25.00 varying on the figure; or how many accessories a character comes with i.e deadpool from that juggernaut wave and most recently task master
I imagine we've all been there.

If he lets me down, I will indeed keep you in mind. I’m all about helping a fellow collector. All figs deserve to have a proper home. |

I'm surprised people are saying the Widow wave looks so good. The Widow and Yelena look particularly poor. It doesn't even look like Scarlett or as good as the other Widow figures.

I'm joking. Even though I want it, I don't anticipate that BAF being highly sought after and I should be able to nab it for anything from $40-$60. And that's what I expect to pay shortly after the wave retails. Given that and the fact that all three of the canon figs are going to peg warm (which means I can nab them loose for $10-$12 each, maybe less even), I'd be a fool to order the wave for four figs...

Again I'll point out that before its actual release the Infinity War Black Widow looked terrible, and then when it actually came out it was fantastic. A number of recent figures using the face printing wound up looking better, in some cases substantially so, than early official pictures indicated. Now I can't guarantee that the trend will continue with this wave but there's also a lack of evidence it'll stop.

Yeah, especially since just looking at these pics out now the IW Widow's removable vest piece seems better sculpted than Yelena's entirely new torso parts. The removable vest wasn't that terribly limiting to movement either. I guess Hasbro didn't want people to just take the vest off of Yelena and make easy custom white-suit Widows because they have to release that later as a Target exclusive or something.

So any clue as to when the Age of Apocalypse BaF is going to be revealed?
Also, can we talk about Spymaster? Who's brilliant idea was that? |

We already talked about him ad nauseum when he was revealed, he's a fine inclusion of a classic character that plenty of folks will buy, stop complaining.

Hasbro has given us so much awesomeness and their panels at conventions have also been awesome, but it's surprising some of what has been left out of panels to be revealed through preorders - the white outfit Storm, for one major example. Maybe they just weren't in a spot quite yet to reveal certain things in time with conventions, but you'd think they'd want to maximize the bang they get in conventions. Not that they haven't done awesome with that already, it could just be more. |

@Ultra Seven
That there looks to me like a perfect list. ( except Madrox, don't need no more). Bout the Widow wave. It all looks good to me but not terribly exciting. I'm might change my mind after the film. Which I'm very much looking forward too. I love all that Russian spy stuff. But yeah, quite nice to just find the figures whenever I'm out and about instead of pre-ordered. For me it would have been an instant pre-order if the BAF was Ursa Major. Id love a Darkstar to have a classic Champions display. I doubt we will see a box set of The Winter Guard, like Alpha. But I'd love a U-foes set. Actually we need Hulk villains. Off the top of my head... The Leader, Harpy, Ringmaster, Princess Python, Xemnu, Jackdaw, Bereet (I wish), Shaper of Worlds, Bi-beast, etc. I realise a lot of the Hulk enemies are hulk-size, so that might take a While... |
