So here's the good news...

After SDCC and NYCC we have seen the first 4 waves of MU single packs for 2012. The good news is there is not a single Wolverine or Captain America among them! There are however 2 Spidermen, 1 Hulk, and 1 Thor (unless you count Beta Ray Bill as a Thor too but I don't).

Of the 20 figures in the first 4 waves 14 of them are new characters that haven't had any version of a figure for them in the line so far! Not too shabby.

Wow that looks really cool! I'm not sure what to think about that one, must be an amazing custom, or a re-release with a revision wave.

I was thinking custom. I don't see why they would make a variant/running change now. Even tho that paint scheme and hammer is sick!!

Tiberius · 10-15-2011, 09:33 PM

It's like a Mini SDCC ML Thor lol.

Exactly lol. Well someone over in the MU community said this is real.

Do Boy · 10-15-2011, 09:41 PM

Well I'm on my phone. But it doesn't look like it's been open to me.

Oh wow those are some really god numbers. I myself am mostly impressed by the lesser known characters. Nighthawk for craps sake!

That's what I said about the Sub Doom's quality...and for the first time ever in all of recoreded history, I was mistaken.

ZEMO
black knight
radioactive man
melter

List of Masters of Evil members - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
theres like 100+ potential characters there.

Phht. that team sucks.
Go instead with the BEST MoE team-
Zemo (Heinrich, the badass)
Moonstone
Fixer
Goliath
The Wrecking Crew
Mr. Hyde
Absorbing Man
Titiana
Blackout
Screaming Mini (Songbird back when she was bad)
Yellowjacket (female)

That team did it all- invaded Avengers mansion- JUST TO KILL THEM.
Not to get rich or anything sensible- just to wipe the Avengers out.
They beat Jarvis into a coma, taking out one of his eyes.
Exiled Captain marvel (Photon) to another dimension!
Beat Cap and the Black Knight to pulp- tieing them up and making them watch as they beat Hercules into a coma and almost killed poor Jarvis.
Then, when the tide turned against them, they went and destroyed the mansion on national television!

That team rocked!

I want that team! we already have a bunch of them- Mostly we need Zemo and Moonstone.

Right? Nighthawk means we can have a great Defenders team!

FANTASTC.
Great tally there, Geko.

I'm thinking of obvious varinats we'll see- like the blue and black Nighthawk costume! Classic Nova!
Who else has "Varinat" written all over them?

Yeah- but it's amazing that they've done such absurd figs as "classic Ms. Marvel"!
Who in hell asked for that?!?

Darkhawk before Hercules, Ares or the Black Knight?

Iron Man · 10-15-2011, 10:24 PM

Puck? HECK YES! Bring on more Alpha Flight!

Jason Abbadon · 10-15-2011, 10:33 PM

I dont get Puck- he's so small...it'll be like getting scammed!
You can either have masive Vlastarr or little Puck- both are $8.99
Which do you think a parent will choose?

Maybe Puck is part of an Alpha Flight three pack? I'd shoot it for a decent Madison Jeffries Box armor!

Do Boy · 10-15-2011, 10:38 PM

I don't think he is a part of a box set. They would have announced it with the others like they did with the new avengers set. They have always seem to show team packs as a whole. I might be wrong. But I have only seen them debut together. ( X-Force, classic avengers and new avengers )

LORD MARVEL · 10-15-2011, 10:42 PM

Yes more Alpha Flight mon ami!!! Vindicator is lonely on the shelf..lol

Jason Abbadon · 10-15-2011, 10:43 PM

Yeah but...he'll only be as tall as the belt on your avatar's Boba Fett!
Does the rest of the card have a folded up apology or something?

well, youda comes with his whole flippin chair, a cloak and a lightsaber- so you get something!

Though you're right of course- I'm still buying one as soon as possible!
No clue how else they can make stchsquatch in MU scale without a box set.

They can make sasquatch very short ....your giving them too much credit. Also in the case of Yoda he often times never comes with a chair or removable cloak. But yeah I get what your saying. I never understood why MUs had way fewer extras then Star Wars or GI Joes.
