Hasbro are you paying attention here? This repaint/combo is a VERY easy one for you all to make.

Their is going to be a whole lot of Shanna bodies with no heads. I guess the next question is has anyone used the physlocke head painted as Shanna ?

Not as a Shanna. But she was the head for my Selene....

I have to agree. That thing was awful. I would rather read the clone saga again than that mess... I was worried avengers 2 would be bad but it seems to have good reviews. Can't wait for Sunday age of ultron, Friday is nfl draft, Saturday is pac man mayweather and free comic book day.

[ukmu]

Thanks guys!

Great pic Kernel!!

Jedi, nice scenes!! (Remember to try photobucket or imgur)

When the Emma body comes out I may upgrade her again. Best part is that she is pose able and playable with no paint coming off. Usually with customs you have to sort of just look at them because when you handle them the paint chips.

[ukmu]

The Psylock head looks ok on Shanna. A bit too much make up and such, I will get some yellow paint and do her up. She looks just like Raquel Welch to be honest!!

@Kylactus... Here's what we discussed yesterday afternoon.

The first one is the no wash all green first release # 91451; second one is the dark wash 2nd release # 21601

My camera is not that great but look at the chest area and mostly the face.

Ordered a Shanna from Ebay, UKMU forcing me to spend money

[ukmu]

glad I could help boost the economy!

If you want to read the REAL Spider Man Clone Saga read this...

Spider Man Clone Saga 1 6 Near Mint Complete Set 2009 Limited Series | eBay

They put this series out on 2009 to tell the story that was meant to be told for the clone saga. Not to bad. Starts out the same, but really takes a different path after. I guess it became one of those cases of too many hands in the jar type things and the story fell to the shit that came out. This mini series is what the original was going to be.

1. Executioner to be alive (are you surprised) Doc OCK also and M'baku
2. Thor ...the real Thor to return and make him bad ass like in the God Killer saga
3. Peter to have MJ and his kid back...but due to MCU I could see them making him a kid...again. I would much rather him be semi retired and Miles swinging around
4. Heroes to stop freaking fighting each other and go stop a damn bank heist or something heroic..
5. If Marvel won't use the FF then bring in Reed from the Ultimate Universe as a creepy lurking bad guy./Give us Black Fury from Ultimate Universe...since White Fury is dead?
6. Give us back these books that were awesome...Sinister Six, Last run of SheHulk with a better artist, Antman-dont sleep Lang is great in this series, along with Grizzly as his side kid ! Keep Cassie alive !,Ms Marvel she's grown on me,Black Widow,Shield team-up book.
7.Figure out what your going to do with the Hulk, Steve Rogers/CapFalcon,Xmen Daredevil(hope reboot makes us forget every damn body knows his identity)and Tony Stark !!! for gods sake Tony !!!
8 Keep Thanos/ Namor cabal around...
9 Don't forget Black Panther is bad ass !!!!
Comic Book Rant over..back to toys !!!!!

Thor will probably be staying a woman, the books sales are the highest they've ever been.

Second, I agree with everything else, but I loved that She-Hulk run, and the art fit the book. They never give She-Hulk the big name artists and they are usually artists who draw less 'Blockbuster art' and more fun illustration. I think the last time she had a big name attached to her book was the Sensational book with Byrne.

That said, Steve Roger needs a come back, no shade to Falcon, but his suit isn't cute,

[ukmu]

Cute suit!!!!

Female Thor is the worse, most blatant example of attempting to go the Disney, forced diversity path ever! why they feel the need to change the race/sex/religion of prime characters instead of just doing something with the minority characters that are already established! it's lazy writing, would it not have been better to have Valkery get an enchanted weapon of her own and have her replace Thor in his title (like they did with Hercules in the 80's) but nope, random sex change is a lot more plausible. or instead of Falcon putting red white and blue in his costume, give the character a chance of developing in his own series! Hell even the writers at Marvel noticed how much there screwing things up! why do you think there going to hit the reset button with Secret Wars. I'll bet everything shakes out to "forget the last decade of continuity"

They really should push Valkyrie into the forefront, as she, or Sif, are essentially the Wonder Women of Marvel.

Given that SheThor (I refused to just call her "thor") is going to be part of the ALl New All Different All Hype Avengers lineup I am certain a figure will be coming.

On the opinion of the character, I haven't read the books, but I do wonder how much the sales will drop off once the identity mystery is revealed. I think a good number of people are buying it simply to find out who she is.

Its frustrating...like I stated earlier because of this crap.. we lost good books..then on the same note the good books don't have the sales to stay smh. I'd love 7-8 core members to the Avengers, Bring back West Coast Avengers and Secret could be attached the shield book, so its like a constant team up book. Change up the X men crap...its gotten old with the Heroes don't trust The Xmen etc...Obvious push of Inhumans, Keep DD in SanFran. Bring back the other books I mentioned.

Also bring back the Thunderbolts. I mean the real Thunderbolts. Not the X-Force of the MU book that we've had for a while. I absolutely love the idea of villains trying to reform and the struggles they go through in order to do so. And, some figures to promote the book as well, please, Hasbro.

Or A Marvel version of the Suicide Squad...I love the idea of (your reformed cause you got a bomb in your head ) lol..Thats how me and my son use the Dark Avengers..Their handler is Gyrich ...we use a MIB figure with his hair painted red lol

[Captain Nash]

That's fine, villains playing at heroes, whether because they are forced too or because they actually want to, is always very interesting to me.

I've always wished the Avengers would have a set up where they are required to have a rehabilitation program, and have 1-2 reformable villains they are trying to help turn their life around. I'm not talking about people like Red Skull or Apocalypse, I'm talking about people who are actually redeemable.

[UrsaMagnus]

Yeah, I was always really disappointed Songbird's Avengers membership (as seen in AVENGERS FOREVER) never came to fruition in the 616. Likewise MACH-# would have been cool as a member as well.

And I'll echo the desire to see the REAL Thunderbolts return. Unfortunately, unless they're helmed by either Busiek (preferably) or Nicieza they'd be mishandled.

To me Songbirds redeemed herself to the point that she's now an Avengers in all but name. While I wouldn't hand her the keys to the red button, I wouldn't even see the need for her to go through a rehab program. Sadly shes' been relegated to the background since the Thunderbolts series ended, so unless we get some kind of boxed set of Thunderbolts I don't see her getting a figure.

I wish that were otherwise, she's way up on my wish list.
