If we get a black costume version of Jim Lee Storm, regardless of how its released (standard release, vintage style, or as an exclusive), I'd hope that we'd get an alternate short-haired head to swap onto it, like in this art

That would be awesome! I do so love the era.

Maybe the vintage wave of X-Men will be how we get a white costumed Emma. I know the typhoid Mary torso has the sculpted belt but it wouldn't be the first time they gave us a floating belt over a sculpted one(see Domino for further details)

I made it from an Iceman (Juggernaut Wave) and Scourge (Red Onslaught Wave). The body and upper legs are from Scourge and the arms, lower legs and head are from Iceman. Pretty simple parts swap, just had to head the joints up a bit.

I honestly couldn't care less which color they put her in as it's all technically right. I mean, I guess if I had to pick silver would be my top one since that is what it was in the cartoon, but I'll be fine either way.

It the first appearance Storm I want most of all though.

I don't even remember Storm having short hair like in that pic. Also the Rogue we got has less hair than I'm used to even though everything else about that figure is pretty much perfect IMO... I'm used to Rogue having gianormous 90's hair like she was a member of the Bangles.

The order of what I’d like to see first;

1) 1st appearance Storm
2) Silver costume Storm (X-Men toon)
3) Black costume w/lightning bolt Storm (With short hair and long hair headsculpts)

I just hope they sculpt the gold circle ring on 1st appearance Storm and not just paint it on.

More X-Men are fine by me as long as we keep getting Jim Lee/Animated/90s inspired versions!

Great Looking Collection. Love It.

Well we have a new Wolverine costume that we can get another Wolverine figure out of, with the reveal of Wolverine's new outfit in the upcoming Return of Wolverine. God it looks awful, sort of reminds me of a high end restaurant employee or a bellhop.

Fantastic. Since those two aren't expensive figures to get on the aftermarket, I may do that. Mind posting some more photos? Curious to see how the parts all match up, proportions-wise.

Totally agree. Its like soon as logan woke up he went right into goth n go ( what ive always called hot topic ) and got some emp clothing. Seriously wthmf is marvel thinking? At least give the poor bastard a mask.

[SymbiSpidey]

Oh God that Wolverine outfit is awful.

[Starlord67]

I agree...Wolverine now looks like a bell hop

[lordbest]

Usually when people start complaining about how bad a new costume is I expect to actually like it, but no that new Wolverine outfit is really terrible.

[Boy Blunder]

The sad part is, I can see where some of the elements were going with this new outfit, but it looks less like a costume (especially a Wolverine costume) and more like a uniform (my first thought when I saw it was that it had some minor similarities to his Red Guard uniform from House of M). Which would be fine, if he were joining some organization for some purpose or another, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if this outfit is only for the 'Return of Wolverine' mini-series, and we see a return to his more classic stylings before long. His look is one of the most iconic in the Marvel U, especially with the world audience-at-large, and now that Laura's been moved out of the identity and costume, they'd be goofballs not to bring it back to Logan.

Found this guy. Was at Walmart doing some grocery shopping and there he was sitting on the Chip isle.

[Starlord67]

Just saw the cover to Hunt for Wolverine "Mystery in Madripoor" #4
I like the new PSYLOCKE/Kwannon (whoever she is) costume.

Found one at a nearby Walmart yesterday, along with Ant Man and Wasp. BK was missing the BAF piece, was tempted to take him (along with Ant Man, for comparison, since he comes with the other leg) down to customer service to see if I could still get him for a discount.

Ended up deciding against it, mostly because I wouldn't have had the time to get into a debate about it anyway. Wonder if it would have worked, though. Hopefully I'll find him again, either way.

Noice!

[Captain Nash]

if you still need Mysterio GO GO GO to Amazon do it NOW! He'll be in stock through Amazon directly approximately 8/27 - at 19.99 and prime shipping if you're a prime member. Every time I've seen him at this price he's gone very quickly and I just miss him but I got him ordered this time around.

Not that it meanst he order will pan out but it's further than I've gotten any other time.

Edit: And it's back up to the scalper prices now, only lasted about 15 minutes. We'll see if my order actually goes through I half expect it won't but it sure would be nice.

[Tarooster]

Sucks too that's one figure from this year I wanted and haven't been able to get.

Same here. I have had several people reach out as they have extra, but I kind of want the thrill of "finding" this one on my own - be it a store or online, at MSRP (though if it's like $5 more I don't mind paying it.) It's one I definitely want, but I'm not frothing at the mouth for it either.

HTS continues to be my go to

Spider-Man Wave 2 should be out around May.
