Ah, I see the Star Wars fanbase in all of us is shining through.

@DTL see I can post pics in my own weird way lol

I use Imgur as well, but just know it doesn't automatically upload your pictures in order. If you want them in order, after they have been uploaded you have to rearrange each and every photo manually yourself.

With the rumor of Emma being released in her black costume, does anyone know which black costume? Is it the Dark X-Men costume which is just a black version of her Astonishing X-Men costume, or is it hr homage to Lady Mastermind costume?

Also, I picked this up in Walmart today, I'm not an MCU collector but I've heard she been hard to find. If anyone needs her let me know, I'm letting her go for what I paid plus shipping, if not I'll be returning her

Is there a “street” date on Silver Surfer with Walgreens?

Not to my knowledge. It’s just if the employees put them out or not. Because some stores I’ve been to have just let surfer set in the back. So it says I stock but he’s not out on the floor

Anyways, like lordbest, I too would love a Honey Badger. It would probably require a new body mold though, since she's a younger teen. Though that could lead to us getting a Molly Hayes, maybe?

Heck it could open the door for a few Marvel kids. Molly, Power Pack, Franklin or Valeria,

Looking at Typhoid Mary, whose belt is sculpted on and not a floating piece (which ruins the belief that her lower torso would be 'perfect' for any Emma) I want to say its going to be an amaglation of both. Mary's belt is perfect for Bendis Emma, but the corset piece is innaccurate, the reverse applies to her Dark X Men outfit.

Marvel Comics is laughably bad and has been for a while now. Turning Psylocke back into a white woman is some sort of social justice PR move that nobody even understands how her being Asian was offensive in the first place. We'll always have back issues.

At least if they release a new caucasian psylocke, we can just call her revanche

You can just attach the photo using the paperclip icon, no need to use a image hosting site.

HaHa! Yep! You and DTL have been on me about that for a year it seems like haha

Is the knock-off Red Hulk decent, or is it worth it to pony up for the real thing?

Starlord67 · 08-17-2018, 08:12 PM

I just saw a teaser image of X-men Disassembled and it does indeed show PSYLOCKE of a different appearance. I'm going to pick that up to see what's going on with the X-men. I did see Dazzler in the image so I'd be happy to see her come back.

Neither version is really worth it imo, it's got terribly outdated articulation and a cartoony sculpt that doesn't mix with the rest of the line

I have a Select Red Hulk, but it’s not much better. Hopefully we get an update down the road.

Bo Ttef · 08-17-2018, 09:06 PM

Flickr is sort ready for pics and became my go to after photobucket went crazy

Bo Ttef · 08-17-2018, 09:08 PM

Didn't Revanche die from the Legacy virus? That was Psylock's "white" body after they switched due to the Siege Perilous wasn't it? Why rewrite all that?

That's what I thought as well!

I am too and I can be pretty lazy about it. But if you ever used photobucket and liked it, this works pretty much the same. It's a good replacement for me

They brought her back during the Sisterhood of Mutants storyline, but I'm pretty sure they killed her at the end

DarthKamen · 08-17-2018, 10:23 PM

It's oddly satisfying to see Vader not tower over people. Great photo.

I finished the X Men films off tonight with Logan and...wow. That was truly amazing.

if the art releases from Uncanny X-Men also didn't show Caucasian Psylocke I might take the rumors with a grain of salt. I honestly don't think Marvel cares enough to not spoil a story for the sake of promoting an even though.

Edit: Typo. Really tired. Need energy.

Hence the kind of maybe. Some people are interpreting it that it's implying there is more to it than the speculation. I guess it depends on how much weight you put on his use of "assumptions". People are assuming Pylocke is white again, the art kind of supports that (but honestly the art is really bad at depicting ethnicity sometimes), but the issue isn't out yet.

Yep she's been in her Japanese body longer than she was in her white one, and however icky it may or may not be, making her white is removing an Asian presenting character from Marvel which doesn't seem like a good thing. Of course, I'm not Asian so I don't claim to speak with any authority on it.

No one stays dead in comics, i dnt mind betsy going back to normal....but maybe kwanons spirit will return to her body. Itd be interesting to see if they make her villanous, heroic or somewhere in between. Just give her that armored look cause i loves how that look.....looked.
