Does Old Man Logan make the rumoured Wolverine wave more likely or less likely?

imho the female legends has to be a inside joke to hasbro i mean they cost the same as the males but have bad PoA compared to the male figures but even so some people still complain about the males not having a calf movement (which yea sucks but its nowhere as bad as not being able to have an ab crunch or hair stoping the head from turning) which actually sucks when people still want them (yea i enjoy having them but i see so many bring up aunt may ect its like why?) if the figures didnt come with a BaF piece i wouldnt mind but seeing how they do im glad they dont jam too many in a wave like they did to the x-men wave (tho it kinda worked with x-men as long as they dont keep remaking the same char in another costume cause there is too many x-men characters for that)

Shatterstar's pretty close to being a woman, IMO. Long flowing ponytail, braids, scarf, silk shirt, eye makeup...that Rob Liefeld sure is a master of character design!

Don't think they have one. Their event was off-site. Hasbro not listed as an exhibitor.

Well...he is "asexual", so yeah, he could be counted as a female figure. But who are we to judge, right?

Sorry, misread your post.

graphyt · 10-06-2016, 08:13 AM

Okay these reveals are awesome.

1987olds442 · 10-06-2016, 09:06 AM

That new Colossus body works great for Deaths Head II.

Enigma2K2 · 10-06-2016, 11:28 AM

Symbiosis has come to the updated Spider-Man sculpt... and it's about d*mn time.

Please don't, man.

For the record, Shatterstar was asexual (which relates to personal sexual preference - the term you're getting it confused with is agendered, which means 'lacking a defined gender/gender identity'), but for a good long while he's been openly bisexual or pansexual, which means that he's down to clown with whomever he finds attractive, regardless of gender/gender identity.

Whoa Shatterstar looks great, as well as the DH2 and Old Man Logan...No 3.75 reveals? Also why are they in the Spider-Man Assortment that's very interesting...

Because that's a mistake on the part of whoever wrote up the news post - OML and Shatty are part of the X-Men wave (Warlock BAF) revealed at SDCC. Adam Warlock and Death's Head II are part of an as-yet-unrevealed wave.

Has there been anything about a 3.75 MCU Dr. Strange? Sorry if it's already been covered but I've been busy with family stuff.

Guys, give Dolemite a break, he was clearly making a joke. No need to get all Confederate Flag up in here. :-D

I'm not sure how there being only 6 reveals means there are a lack of female charcters when all of the females for these waves were already revealed.

Lionheart · 10-07-2016, 09:01 AM

Shocker looks great, but why does have 'astral' looking effects?

Probably the closest effect piece they had to how his powers look in the comics.

Kernel · 10-07-2016, 04:14 PM

I'm hoping they show some new 3.75" stuff. That deaths head II looks cool, would love that in 3.75" form

EvilMonkeyPope · 10-07-2016, 05:55 PM

Hasbro did not actually have these on display on Thursday, so I wasted a lot of time hunting for their booth that didn’t exist. They weren’t even at the Marvel Comics booth! I had my heart set on harassing Hasbro employees until they agreed to make Marvel Legends of Sauron, Silver Samurai, Multiple Man, Squirrel Girl, & Titania!

Dolemite · 10-08-2016, 06:33 AM

Squirrel Girl would be awesome, especially if they mirrored Erica Henderson's art from the comic.

How about no? Hasbro hasn't even done a normal Laura yet, and Old Man Logan is more popular.

Parademon1 · 01-31-2017, 04:24 PM

The Jaw opener of this wave to me was DH2! What an awesome figure!
