Yes, although I think it was just one wave in 1999 since the show didn't last long. They did the 6 Harbinger shared, Hawkeye, Ultron, Vision, and Kang.

Man, Ultron looks awesome. Hope we see the rest of the villain wave soon, and those rumored Fantastic Four figures. I wouldn’t mind a stream in January, that’s more appealing than holding off until pseudo-Toy Fair. With reveals done, here’s my current top ten:
1. Banshee (Classic) 2. Miss Marvel (Carol Danvers) 3. Shadowcat 4. Death’s Head 5. Phoenix (Rachel Grey) 6. Corsair 7. Hepzibah 8. Raza 9. Ch’od 10. Psylocke (Outback) ... narrowly missing the cut are the rest of Excalibur, the outback X-Men, and a classic Beta Ray Bill. |

Wonder Man was hitting the roids in the 90s.

I actually bought/still own several of the "Avengers: United They Stand" figures when they first came out: Ant Man, Wasp, Wonder Man, Vision, Ultron and Kang. I got Captain America years later, as he was always sold out.
Also, I hope you guys don't mind if I mention this, but if anyone needs them, Amazon has the new HOX/POX wave of X-Men figures up for pre-order. Cyclops https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-44 Magneto https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-83 Marvel Girl https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-85 Moira MacTaggert https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-84 Omega Sentinel https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-51 Wolverine https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-50 Xavier https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Classi...-games&sr=1-82 Also, did anyone else notice that Target's Retro Gambit and Retro Rogue figures are no longer available for shipping? That's unfortunate. |

If you think the ones that came out were bad, you should see the ones that didn’t come out.
I can’t find any pics, but I remember seeing them in Wizard magazine. There was like underwater Ant Man, snow battle Hawkeye and some other rather questionable stuff. Although I do remember a possible Thor and a tank tread-ed Ultron. |

All of the Retro figures that have come in so far were in large protected shipping boxes with no stupid bar code stickers on the toy packaging. Target needs to start listing their preorders at the same time as other online stores.

Well, I'm bummed there was no Razorfist...
Ultron is appreciated, but I'll need to see more photos. Dig the Kirby-crackle from his nuclear furnace innards; that's a nice touch that will photo well under the proper lighting. However, there's something about the fig that I can't quite place my finger on that has me wanting to see more photos. Maybe the legs/thighs...maybe the lack of luster on the paint...dunno. It looks good and represents the classic form of the character, but I want to see more dynamic posing and its scale in relation to other legends (I'm hoping it's closer to 7" than 6"). Nova, while also appreciated, suffers from the same. I'll be getting it, without a doubt, but I need more photos. Bucket-Head's head is looking a little too buckety (and vapid; gritting teeth would have been nice), that pose isn't helping, and the legs (lower, this time) and paint are also throwing me off a little. MODOK is simply a new version of what I already have with an appreciated face insert adding variety and hands to make up for the non articulated fingers the TB version featured. I'm happy for those that missed out on the BAF, but this will be mostly a lateral addition for me. They drew even with TB, when I was hoping for more to propel my inclination to add it. As is, it's a pick up, but not one I'm hard pressed to lock-in. When I saw that it was sold out on Pulse, I shrugged and moved on. The Xmen stuff has little resonance for me and, similar to the Spidey-verse wave and Venom-pool waves, I may just spot-nab stuff...I'm in no rush for those three waves ...some TB and Hasbro crosspollination Appreciation: Last edited by TheBlueMarvel; 12-05-2020 at 09:31 AM.. |

Yeah, Nite, these looks could definitely use modern interpretations to bring them in line with Hasbro's current aesthetics. That said, there are elements to both costumes that present challenges, which make me doubtful we'll see FAs of them.
Fist's collar is an obvious hurdle. I've read some suggestions that the collar for Black Tom be repurposed, However, the peaks in the front and the fact that the collar also plunges almost to his navel necessitate a completely unique torso mold. Luke would also require a uniquely sculpted torso and arms. It isn't just the bagginess of of the disco shirt that provides challenges, it's the frame of the character that would make the tooling another one-off effort. I'm just not certain the fandom for Power Man & Iron Fist is significant enough for Hasbro to make 3rd versions of the characters with parts that cannot be reused. But hey, this fan would buy them.

Jay C at TNI is claiming he's heard classic Ultron will be part of an Iron Man wave. He's hit or miss on some of his news, but if this is true it'd fit with Dan saying earlier in the year that he'd been pushing for a Retro carded Iron Man wave.
Hopefully this means modular armor is a go. |

An Iron Man wave would be great. Granted it would probably have at least 2 variants of Iron Man, but that's understandable. That would still leave 4-5 other characters. Maybe a redo of Madam Masque (though I contend that unlike Viper, she doesn't really need a redo), maybe Count Nefaria even? a mass release of Ghost, or a Melter or Whiplash. And of course, without a question if it doesn't happen before then, it would be inexcusable to leave an updated Mandarin out of this wave.
BAF could be Titanium Man, an updated Iron Monger, or Ultimo. So of course, we'll probably get three Iron Man variants, a War Machine, a Black Widow, and a 10th tier Iron Man villain that no one is actively asking for. Last edited by Captain Nash; 12-05-2020 at 05:25 PM.. |

My idea for an ironman wave:
Modular ironman ( as a bonus a new head and neck for sc im so an unmasked stark head could be put on with a neck.) War machine from im2 (my fave look for wm and put on a much taller im body) Guardsman Comic mandarin Stealth ironman Whiplash Baf comic all read crymson dynamo or comic iron monger

It's so obvious, it's the costume, I can't post a picture of Blizzard from the 90s cartoon, but if you get an old toybiz figure of him from that show, you'll see what I mean.
