My guess? Maximoff Twins. Considering they showed a picture of Carol at the booth I doubt they'll make her a swap. She's a wildly popular character right now.

Or hey, maybe I'll get lucky and Machine Man will have a swap and he'll have something more interesting. :P

Quicksilver/Scarlet Witch would make a lot of sense.

I thought of Machine Man/Vision too.

If the swaps are handled like the Cap and Spidey 2 ones it'll be OK. I managed to find all those at retail (though the AIM and HYDRA Troopers were tough due to being army builders).

Did anyone notice that Hawkeye is missing from the photos over at Marvelousnews??

[NoodleChow]

That Hawkguy, always the loner.

[redfox]

Maybe Machine Man and Hawkeye will be swaps. "Dudes in Purple"...

[Serious Lee]

I think Machine Man/Vision swap makes sense. Does Hawkeye/ Quicksilver?

[JamesBenjamin]

So wait, they're *not* movie figures then? What's the world coming to when there aren't Movie Legends coming out!?!

[BAD MOON]

They need to make Sentry the swap with the Void.

[Phantomcrow]

NO MORE SWAPS. I know it gets us more characters, but it is just to much hassle in the long run. I would rather see MUCH more of the 3 pack idea to get more characters out than swaps. That being said MACHING MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with extra extended arms!!!!!!! I have an extended arm right now!! :-) I already am planing a NEXTWAVE custom to fight Fin Fang Foom!!!! Gambit cloth coat and an Unmasked Daredevil Matt Murdock head FTW!!!

(P.S. Maching man was recently in the Ms. Marvel comic with her before she got the new, totally not Miracle Man, outfit and went into space. He had been part of the marvel universe for DECADES)

[ultraman zoffy]

Yeah, I agree with Phantom... the whole swaps thing hasn't exactly been working out very well for us all in case anyone has forgotten.

[ChuckSass]

Im a little disappointed. No Gamora, and we have two Ms Marvels, which the best one is in a pack

This is only wave 1. I'm assuming wave 2 will come out near the movie and will have "movie" figures.

Agreed, where are the ones they promised us from last year which they didn't put out.

This so true! Sentry was suppose to be released a year or two ago but I don't recall or see him ever? Will these Avengers be the ones for the movie version that will come out I wonder...

Jubilee, Agent Venom, Radioactive Man, Thor, Hawkeye, Sentry, etc. It looks like they are making a very good effort at getting these figures out where they make sense.

I might be in the minority, but I'm glad Rogue didn't make it out. The new female bodies are SO much better!

I'd bet that "Wave 2" has some movie figures in it. Just like the Captain America: The Winter Soldier waves.

Cap (Avengers 2 Uniform)
Iron Man (Avengers 2 Uniform)
Ultron (Headswap to make 'Ultron Drone, Swap with Movie-Vision)
Movie Quicksilver/Scarlet Witch swap
Hawkeye (Avengers 2 Uniform)
Thor (Avengers 2 Deco)
Hulk BAF (Outside chance of a Hulkbuster Iron Man BAF)

Natasha will get the short end of the stick, or possibly end up an exclusive somewhere.

I'm gonna hold out hope we get a JL Rogue instead and on that new Storm body with a sculpted jacket. Also need an updated Gambit on the Bucky Cap body with The Coat and Arms that we see on Punisher and Red Skull.

Saw this over at the Fwoosh forums from a poster at SDCC and thought it was worth sharing.

This is what I was told by Dwight and the rest of Hasbro reps
1. cap and spidey sold pretty well
2. No more x-men figures, until possibly when the next movie comes out, but sells on Jubilee wave will determine if that will happen for sure.
3. There will be more Avengers waves next year(waves 3 and 4)
4. Avengers wave 1 will be the comic only line and the rest of the waves will have a mix between comic/movie figures
5. Due to the good sells, Spiderman will have a 3rd wave that will come out Jan/Feb
6. Avengers wave 1 will be out Jan/Feb
7. Expect to see more box sets in the future, that will help get more unreleased figures out
8. Some more new Avengers figures will be up at the panel later on today
9. Only a few Spiderman figures will be reveal for tomorrow, but the BAF a figure will be a "killer"(spider slayer?)
10. Don't worry unreleased figures will get out somehow, they have made it their main goal to get em out in our hands

So I was pondering putting a Gatling arm on my Madroid's left side and I thought I might try something first to see how it looked. See, the main thing I didn't like what was the blade was quite bulky. It is definitely cool but seems absurd and makes having a hand there all but useless.

Anyway I trimmed the blades off and I think it actually looks really cool. Way cleaner. I think even just trimming the top blade off and leaving the bottom one looked pretty cool too. Add some black paint and ta-da.

^^^^^
Very cool Iceman!

I've been thinking something similar, like does every Mandroid need to be a carbon copy? Nope!

No more X-Men is DIsney's war on Fox...they want that license back badly. No movie figures till it hapenns....I guess no Jim Lee Clops or WOlverine or Rogue : (

That was my thinking. A little variation makes them unique. I might try to see if I can work a flamethrower on one.

Avengers 2015:
I'm happy about Sentry and Scarlet Witch (nice surprise with Wanda!)...modern Ms Marvel is pretty cool too...I'm on the fence with Thor and Odin...While I love the sculpts (adding Odin is really fantastic) the scale issues bug me - an easy fix for Hasbro; give us a new Beta-Ray in the "enhanced height" format and a new Namor with Hyperion-buck and all is good!....and Machine man.......may just be my underground favorite!....Jocasta follow-up anyone?

[Relena Warcraft]

Excuse me, that's modern CAPTAIN Marvel. This is modern MS. Marvel.

[Fortune]

I was checking out the Hasbro display today and there was no Hawkeye in the display. No idea why they removed him.
