Crossfire is very cool; I hope we get more Moon Knight people. Egghead is neat as a Master of Evil flesh out. I’ll gladly take another Ultron, but I’m not sure what’s different other than the mouth. Kang is easily the best fig here, but, as much as I’m a fan of Jonathan Majors and have no doubt he will put in a great performance, I don’t have use for the fig. However, I will support him in the role and buy this version anyway as I like him and Kang too much to say no.
As a sidenote, there have been many calls for Stature over the years, but I'm pretty sure those calls were for the 616 canon version. Last edited by TheBlueMarvel; 02-07-2023 at 02:20 PM.. |

I'm a MCU fan, so I'm looking forward to the toys and movie. But man, at first glance I thought we're getting a DC wave with Hasbro Legends. That looks like DC's Deadshot and DC has an Egghead too. And didn't we just get an Ultron in the Build-a-bear wave?

Ant Man and Wasp are literally the same ones from the Infinity War Wave just with some texturing and some blue on Wasp and a different chest for Scott.
I will be sticking with my Infinity War Wave Ant-Man and Wasp I got for 10 bucks each a few years ago |

Kang looks fantastic and I'm happy we're getting Cassie, though I expected MODOK was gonna be the BAF.
Congrats to Egghead on losing weight. Man clearly stuck to his new year resolution. Does anyone know which Ultron iteration the head is supposed to represent? |

Future Ant-Man is a waste of a slot. I’d have preferred classic Ant-Man, Wasp, or Yellowjacket.
Delighted to be getting Egghead & Crossfire, although they scream “peg-warmers.” |

Cool figs but that price tag? Hasbro is on serious meth if 5hey think this shit is worth that. Thats damn near 30 fukin’ bux for a STANDARD fig. Hasbro ain't gonna make a lotta sales at these prices, provided they can get that windowless box wakanda crap thats stagnating every toy aisle i ever go to outta the way.

They will definitely peg warm, but Crossfire likely a bit more so despite looking cooler. I see custom makers nabbing extras of Egg head for rando scientist kit-bashes. |

Not wild about the new Ultron. The new head is cartoony and the lack of paint is a bummer. The original release was much better.

Ooh, good idea there! Slap a repainted Peter Cushing/Grand Moff Tarkin head on Egghead and you're a-cookin'! |

They didn't even bother to paint Wasp's helmet. And why does Cassie have a giant unmasked head when they can only be big or small with the helmets on?

Kang looks amazing and I will definitely get him. I really like how Stature looks too, but not enough to get the entire wave.

Good eye. The mouth opening, chin and crest of the head are all different. It’s an attempt at a more modern Ultron head. Do I see marbleized plastic?

We're still not getting MCU Janet & Hank?

So... Then they're not "literally" the same?

As a strictly MCU collector from here on, this wave is frustrating. Over $100 in figures I have no need for just to complete the BAF. Looks like hasbro is banking on us rabid MCU fans to carry the comic figures. I have an Ultron, and who are the rest? I never knew Dan Aykroyd played an “evil” conehead.

I think the rest of the wave is 50/50 "works".
Obviously Ultron will sell for those who missed him or those who want more comic drones. Egghead seems like a customizer's dream. Future Ant-Man looks to be a cheap throw-in because they could do it with just one new piece. I do wonder if that BAF will sell the wave, though, since who really wants a giant Cassie to go with regular Hope and Scott? And the unmasked giant head seems a waste of tooling. |

I feel like alot of potential was wasted on this wave. I've been a long time critic of Hazbro mixing comic asnd MCU figures in thier waves. I understand why they do it, but it's anti-consumer in my opinion. This wave should have included Janet and Hank Pim, and MODOK as the BAF. A figure of Bill Murray's character and possibly one of the other Quantum Realm characters would have been nice too.
Hazbro, please just split up the waves into only MCU or only Comic, that way you don't punish both the MCU and the Comic figure collectors at the same time. As for these figures, Kang is really the standout here. Cassic and Scott's face sculpts look terrible, I don't know how they were able to make Scott's face sculpt worse than the hilarity of the last one. Wasp looks decent though. |

Unstoppable Wasp would've been a much cooler comic figure to get.

Why are we getting another Comic Ultron so soon after the previous one? He's barely different other than the alternate head. Seems like a wasted slot for this wave when it should have been a 6" scale Cassie instead. And yeah, I'm annoyed that the only Cassie we're getting so far is a giant BAF version. Also disappointed that Kang doesn't have an extra unmasked headsculpt since we'll likely see him without the blue mask through most of the film based on the trailers. Overall, this wave is a letdown. I'll probably just get Kang and Wasp (for her new costume) and skip the rest.

Egghead and Kang are the definite winners for me. The rest I'll probably hold off on.

Perhaps she'll figure out how to grow large without a helmet like her comic counterpart who had powers and could grow in size only because she had been exposed to Pym Particles so much since she was a little kid.
