My Favorites are Black Cat, Thor (modern), Sabertooth, and from what I've seen I'm thinking the new Deadpool is going to be solid as well.

I agree the Thor looks really good and I think Deadpool will be great too, but I'm looking forward to Juggernaut and Gambit.

I only own 2 figures... I have the masked Captain America and Original Iron man.... I've seen others in stores/fellow collectors... In terms of price and scale the hulk figures are awesomely detailed and massive.. Black cat, thor, DR Doom.. have awesome sculpt/accessories... In my opinion though Marvel Select Ultimate Iron Man is the best... the original figure still draws between 20-30 loose! Luckily they reissued the figure and is a must have for me.... Looking at the new figures coming out, gambit, cyclops, magneto and thing all look great and deadpool should be good

Does the Ultimate Iron Man have good articulation?

No it has very little articulation compared to the new ones. I think the new Thor and Abomination are two of the best but I think when Juggernaut comes out that will be my favorite.

There's 6 Iron Man figures made by Marvel Select. The newest are Iron Man 2 figures: War Machine and Iron Man Mark IV. Then 3 versions of the Iron Man figure I have, regular, stealth and Captain America version. (Marvel Select Iron Man Figure - Marvel Action Figures Marvel Select this is the figure I have.) Then there's the ultimate Iron Man (Ultimate Iron Man - Marvel Action Figures Marvel Select) this is the first one made which has been rereleased the Sculpt is amazing and the wiring base is sick... not sure the articulation but should be 20+ points of articulation.... enjoy.... As for the 1 have the sculpt is good and looks good with the base,... but off the base he looks kinda awkward.. but is still good

I'd have to say the big guys win. Juggernaut, Red Hulk and Unleashed Hulk (blue pants version).

I have figures I deem great

Thanos, Anti venom (seriously good), Abomination, magneto, Juggernaut, Green and Red hulk.

Punisher has basically no articulation. Like a neca figure but the sculpt is awesome and comes with really cool props.

Juggy, Abomination are huge and have great detail along with thanos. He comes with his bride, death.

Magneto has a great base and scales pretty well with ML

My favorite thing about MS is the sculpting.

I'm really looking forward to Rhino and Venom coming out. Not the flash thompson disney one, which is in itself great, but the one that has all the changeable heads

MS really has a lot of good gems, Colossus, Thanos new Hulks. I would have to say my favorite overall sculpt is A bomb. Seems like all their large scale figs are pretty sick. Rhino and Venom are gunna be awesome. Also the only MS I never got were Watcher and the zombie Hulk, cap and Spidy those all look awesome as well.

I have Zombie Spider-Man and Zombie Colonel America...I didn't like the Hulk one so I passed. The new Barbarian Hulk is awesome too. If MU would only make the Marvel Zombies...

I think the best made MS figure is the Garfield movie Spidey. My favorite is Thanos.

I'm with Fancy though,... the new Venom that's coming out next month has the potential to take the #1 seed.

The Spider-man movie Spidey is probably my favorite so far. It's got "legends" levels of articulation (aka more than usual Select stuff) plus swappable hands. His hip movement isn't as hindered as most Select figures and can get about 90 degrees out of them.

I'd say the Watcher and Thanos are the 2 greatest figures made by Select. Watcher because he fits in MU, ML and MS scale, and Thanos for fitting in both ML and MS and they're both the only figures made of that character. On average they nail the big guys the sculpts and paint is soo good you look past the lost articulation.

I usually get the bigger MS characters to go with Legends figures. Ultimate Hulk and Thor go with my ML Ultimates. Abomination, Ultron, and Juggernaut go on my villains shelf. Thanos and Mephisto go with the cosmic/ Silver Surfer people. The Watcher is with my FF next to my SDCC Stan Lee ML. The MS movie Avengers Hulk is with my Wal-Mart 6in./Legends.(I liked him being a little bigger than the regular movie figure) I have the transparent Silvestri Phoenix, Bradstreet Punisher, and Hughes Black Cat just because they look nice. I am planing to get Rhino and Venom to go on the Spiderman shelf where I already have Anti-Venom waiting. I want Flash Thompson Venom, but not until I see how he looks next to some marvel legends.

Gotta say that my favorite selects are Deadpool, Mephisto and Classic Thor. What diamond select are doing with the line is great but I wish they would give them more pose-ability/articulation.
