Omega flight. It was agent, arachne, beta ray bill, squatch, talisman and guardian mike pointer.

Also, Nite, you keep pushing the "could just get a black horse" thing, even with horses that aren't black... are you trying to unload some black horses? Are the Feds onto your horse-trafficking operations? I told you, son, cattle-rustling was a gateway drug, and now look where you are...

Haha. Nahhhh im too damn lazy to rustle cattle. That involves movment outside.......too bloody hot to rustle. I just stay my lazy ass indoors watching tv, reading books ( dont all faint at once now

) and playing videogames. Occasionally work on a custom.

Starlord67 · 08-30-2018, 03:40 PM

I'm hoping for some original Alpha characters like Northstar and Aurora or Snowbird!!

Spyne98 · 08-30-2018, 03:43 PM

I was legitimatly angry today when I saw it was 3pm and we didn't have an reveals from Fan Expo... then I realized today is Thursday.

Lost a day did we?

Top Canadian possibilities:

- Squirrel Girl
- Northstar
- A new Wolverine of some kind
- Guardian
- Snowbird

SymbiSpidey · 08-30-2018, 05:35 PM

Don't know if I mentioned this, but now I work at Best Buy and when I went in this morning to walk the floor before open, I saw Bishop, X-23 Wolverine, Lady Deadpool and Underwear Deadpool in the gaming department.

Picked up the Lady Deadpool and Underwear Deadpool and left the other two on the shelves since I already have them. I didn't even realize I had $40 in rewards points on my Best Buy account, so I basically got the two figures for a dollar and some change which made me super happy.

I just need the X-Men Deadpool to complete my Sauron BAF. I'm super excited to get that finished.

Luke Cage and Claire also came in the mail today. I like Claire (although the figure doesn't fully capture the beauty of Rosario Dawson lol) but man the Luke Cage is just something else. It's so dope that I might want to track down a second to replace the current comic Luke Cage since thankfully, Luke Cage's Netflix outfits are basically what he's seen wearing in modern comics.

Saying that, I'd be more than happy to be proven wrong and would love many of the characters listed before my post. Can't wait!!

hasbroherofan · 08-30-2018, 08:27 PM

Dwight apparently did a video later promising the reveal will be "Canadian goodness."

Hoping for a deluxe Snowbird with a few beast forms.

MeLikeJinx · 08-30-2018, 08:57 PM

I hope they reveal 90's Storm-eh, 90's Beast-eh & a new 90's Jean Grey-eh.

SymbiSpidey · 08-30-2018, 09:01 PM

The advertisement makes me feel like it's going to be some major reveal, when the reality is that it'll likely end up being something like Frog-Man.

I'd totally buy Frog-Man though.

Meh.

MeLikeJinx · 08-30-2018, 09:15 PM

^ It actually feels really good to not care about any new Legends announcements except to complete my X-men team. Before I used to buy Legends just because there were no X-men Legends to buy, so I just bought other Legends. But now I have enough of my X-men team complete that I can see that the end is in sight and just wait for Xavier and Gambit and hope 90's Beast, Storm and a new Jean Grey get announced. The day I buy my final Legends will be the greatest day for me.

Guardian is one that I am surprised they haven't done yet. It's really just a repaint of one of their default detailess bodies. I figure if or when we see Northstar it will be a two pack with Aurora. Snowbird is the most interesting of your suggestions. Sadly I don't think we will see a White Sasquatch BAF so soon after Sasquatch. Hmmm? What are the odds of a Box BAF? (who am I kidding? Any Canadian BAF would be Major Mapleleaf with Horse)

Anyone know if there were any bootlegs/knockoffs made of that toy?

Wander through the pink aisles at whatever your local toy merchant is. There are tons of Pegasus (Peguusi?) and Unicorns etc. The trick is finding one large enough. (Or finding three large enough. We have Black Knight. Comic Valkyrie and rumors of a Dani Moonstar in the not to distant future.) The Schliech are probably too small, but there might be something.

edit for example the Breyer stuff. Which claims to be 1/12 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...p_bw_cr_x__a_w

Bo Ttef · 08-30-2018, 09:54 PM

Hasbro loves to repack BAFs... My vote- Sasquatch and Puck 2pk! lol

Penguino · 08-30-2018, 10:28 PM

I'm taking that sign as a reveal. As in singular.

Make it a 3 pack exclusive with 1st appearance Wolverine, classic Hulk, and Wendigo.

Augustus_Cole · 08-31-2018, 04:21 AM

i just saw the "trailer" for the new season of Iron Fist on Netflix. I TOTALLY despised season 1 and found it unwatchable.
BUT...this surrrrrre looks good. I'm hoping it IS as good as it looks. Sept 7th!!..

looks like he gets his mask in this one.
The fight scenes appear to have been done much better this time around.

SymbiSpidey · 08-31-2018, 05:49 AM

I'm honestly cool with Danny getting a yellow "over the mouth mask" and a green hoodie instead of the traditional Iron Fist bandana setup. I mean, I would like to see that (they pay a nod to it in the trailer so maybe it pops up later), but at least they're trying to give Danny a distinct visual design and not just put him in regular civilian clothes (which works for Luke and Jessica, but not Daredevil or Iron Fist).

But in all likelihood, even that look is probably a proto-look for a proper Iron Fist outfit.

Hopefully we actually see that in Legends form.

It’s good to have a finish line. You’ll also need Iceman, Colossus, Jubilee, and the upcoming Archangel too, right?
