2012 Wave 3 - Angel, Nighthawk, Nova, Hercules, Puck, Jubilee

New masterworks Fin Fang Foom

[stjuggernaut]

Hercules, Beta Ray Bill, Nova and Kraven are the ones i will be most looking forward from this list.

Hopefully we will see pictures of Nova and Herc soon. I wonder if they will be making Hercules in his classic skirt thing or the latest green suit???

[stjuggernaut]

thanks for the link. i found them just before you posted.

nova looks awesome. not happy with that hercules at all. im a massive fan of herc and they should defo make him in his green and gold skirt, not the old one with the green H thing on his chest.

his most successful run is in the incredible hercules books. i hope theychange it ans make that one, or even his most recent look would make more sense.

[Saint Phe]

I would trade half of my collection for that Kang figure right now. And 2012 Wave 1 looks like just about the most solid wave yet.

[Jason Abbadon]

I see ten total "must haves" and the rest are either maybes or "not getting my money".

Three "must haves" in eas=ch wave is excellent- I dont think I'll ever need another Spider-Man anything, frankly.

Still- Beta Ray Bill, Nova and Kang! for those, I'd buy the rest of the figures just to keep the line going!

And this is in addition to the dozen or so incredible "must haves" for this year!

[brittap]

Just MU She-Hulk for me thanks

[NerfTW]

And FYI, the last 2011 wave can be guessed (By looking at the other figures shown on the display) to be:

Marvel Universe 2011- Wave 6:
Storm (modern)
Psylocke
Patriot
Thor (Age of Thunder)
Daredevil (Shadowland)
edit- I forgot the White Iron Fist figure. So that actually makes six figures from unknown waves.

Although Absorbing Man had the same release date as Patriot, so the wave 5 and wave 6 might be different than we thought. Too bad the Magneto is Ultimate and not a new classic one.

And comic packs:
Quicksilver and Wonder Man
Adam Warlock and Thanos (no infinity gauntlet on either one)
Moon Knight and Ant Man (the new guy from Secret Avengers, not sure if MK is a new body)
Daredevil and Bullseye (Both all new sculpts, thigh swivels, very nice upgrade)
Mr. Sinister and Gambit (Sinister is a repainted Colossus, I'm still amazed at how well that works, and Gambit is the Wolverine Origins one with a new head and bandanna)
Helmet-less Juggernaut and Colossus (Not a fan of the Cain Marko head. A little too Hulk like. He's usually more calm and smug, in my opinion)

[thechris]

Bleh, I already have 3 different Colossus figures. The Astonishing X-Men suit and the 2 variants from the Giant-Size X-Men box set. Couldn't they at least have given us a "powered down" Colossus? Heck, even using a modified Wrecking Crew body... They're already milking his buck with Sinister. Toss us a bone.

[webz]

Why no Anti-Venom yet? I was certain that with the release of the different Venom toys from last year's Spider-Man collection, there would be Anti-Venom this year... grrrrr....

[Torpedo]

From the Waves to come...

Must Buys
Dr. Strange (color)
Falcon
Sentinel (at least one, though I wish I had the money to get three!)
Namor
Iceman
Power Man & Iron Fist
Wonder Man & Quicksilver
Starlord, Drax the Destroyer, Rocket Raccoon & potted Groot
Beta Ray Bill
Kraven
Scarlet Witch
She-Hulk
Kang
Angel
Nighthawk
Nova
Hercules
Puck

Might Buy (if the sculpt and paints are pleasing)
Dr. Strange (astral form variant)
Darkhawk
Absorbing Man (metal skin variant)
Daredevil & Bullseye (already have both from 2009 Wave 1, but if they're much improved it will be tempting)
Moon Knight & Ant-Man (already have MK but I want an AM, perhaps loose?)
Mr. Sinister & Gambit (want Sinister but hate Gambit fiercely)
Punisher (already have both 2009 Wave 1's melon head and bandana Frank from the Target two-pack, but if this one is better?)
Fin Fang Foom

A variant on Mags would be so easy. A simple red and purple repaint and you've got a SICK House of M Mags. I really hope they end up doing this, but either way I'm getting him.

Mr. Sinister's original origin was to have been a scientist that worked with Xavier waaay back in the young days and discovered how to graft the X Gene onto human DNA- and procedded to do so with every awesome mutant power he could get his hands on.
The whole Marauders wiping out the Morlocks was supposed to be eliminating them while collecting samples of the victims.

Sorta like that bad guy from the Heroes TV series.

So, Sinister looks like "Colusssus in drag" because he was useing a copy of Peter's powers when he confronted the X-Men in Inferno (along with telepathy, telekinesis and a score of other powers).

He would've been like an evil Mimic and mutants would have become a resource for humans to harvest, and there was going t be a Magneto connection (explaining why Vertigo was on the Marauders). I think it was going to be magneto trying to mutate the human population but it never happened.

Some of this coolness was kept and some discarded after Claremont never followed up on the character (big suprise!) and later writers went in another direction.
All the Marauders have been killed and cloned in established contunity- including Sabertooth (in Inferno).

Now it's been revealed that Sinister is Gambit's father (explaining Gambit's beady eyes) and gambit recruited the Marauders, not kowing what they would do in thte Morlock tunnels.

But he still looks like Colusssus in drag.

[Shawn Woodbeck]

I want them all!!!!

[Jason Abbadon]

I want everything on Torpedo's list except Fin fang foom- he's the cheesy red 60's version with shorts.
You just dont put shorts on a freakin' dragon, man.

Torpedo, you gotta get the Astral Dr. Strange- it's really a great fig! Much more awesome than the pics can show in fact.
Ragnar hooked me up with one and sculptwise, he's the very best MU figure EVER. Beating even Cable. He's got rocker ankles too!

Yeah, I realized later that a red and purple repaint would look very nice.

[cellardoor]

I'm going to have problems in 2012. I'm not a completist but the only figures I can see myself skipping are
Ultimate Spidey
Fin Fang Foom
Storm
Absorbing Man
Moon Knight/Antman.

From the pics all the revisions of previously released figures are improvements, especially Punisher, Daredevil and Bullseye! And then there's the Future Foundation box-set as well.
Gah!

[Redlantern161]

LOL @Jason he does look like him in drag but u guys should hit cooltoyreview.com since each of the pictures focus on each individual figure so that way you know what is the buck that they'll have. I do also agree that the shorts are a bit much because he doesn't have a little dragon in there to hide lmao!
