It's crazy to see the levels of distribution for each exclusive at different stores. I never saw Magik anywhere and I searched every store in a 50ish miles radius but I see people talking about multiples in one store. Then a random collector I met locally offered an extra he had ordered online.

Then Mystique comes along and she is nowhere to be found for some but I found 10 across only 3 stores and was able to hook a few people up with only one extra left. I'm either going to trade her eventually or make some low budget custom lol.

Then Walmart Worthy Cap and Binary Captain Marvel are impossible for me but I see people posting pics of 3 or 4 cases per store. I checked every Walmart in a 100 mile radius and nothing. But I'm not getting scalped so I'll go without Worthy Cap.

Target exclusives are the most consistent for me. They may even clog so much they actually go on clearance. A local Target has 9 cases of Spider-Man and MJ 2 packs.

I don't want to get off topic on Transformers and their exclusives lol.

Nice setup! I hope we get classic Excalibur next after Alpha Flight.

Excellent. Looks like mostly Dagger with a Typhoid Mary top and Emma thighs/head... Polaris upper arms?

I’m guessing Elektra hips, Dagger torso/legs/forearms, Wasp/Mystique hands and Black Cat feet.

Nice job Red, that's the best I've seen thus far. Awesome photos and posing as usual. Your ability to execute subtle, natural, and elegant posing has very few peers...

^ Whoa. That's awesome! That's actually one of the few covers I remember too.

Is that a custom Val Cooper? Looks like a Peggy Carter with Dagger head, no? Really cool display!

Great recipe! I'm hoping to use the alternate Walgreens Emma head on my custom White Queen that I made a few months back.

I say just keep your ears open for exclusives showing up on Walmart's website. Both the Luke Cage/Claire and Corvus Glaive/Loki sets were near impossible to find locally but they eventually went up on Walmart.com.

Why not use Typhoid's lower torso? It completes the corset.

So, artist Javier Garrón recently posted his double-spread cover piece for House of X #6 and Powers of X #6, featuring a pretty impressive who's who of X-Villains. And really, all it shows me is that, for all the X-Men we've been getting in recent years...



...we've got a long ways to go. Hop to it, Hasbro!

[snake5289]

I want a new Lady Deathstrike so much.

[Captain Nash]

So random maybe stupid question, but....I'm thinking of creating some kind of X-Men School diorama. I know which characters I want to use for the teaching staff but I need to just have some random "students". What lines would people suggest that are fairly cheap, in 6 inch scale and would have a look that would mostly fit in with Marvel Legends (in other words no Dragonball Z.). All I can think of is DC lines and Star Wars, neither of which I really want to use because the characters are too well known to me and would look weird mixed in with X-Men.

@Snake5289- agree. She, along with a new Banshee, FA Storm and an Excalibur Shadowcat MUST all come before the line ends, be it in one year or 10. Prefer we get them sooner than later like by 2021 at latest.

Fortnite. The Jazwares line, not the McFarlane one. McFarlane figures are a bit too tall, especially to be students (unless, of course, you want them to be taller). The Jazwares ones are a hair shorter than average Legends, and have a wide variety of designs, from reasonable to weird. The second wave of them just started showing up, too.




(Sorry, couldn't find any good group shots of the wave 2 figures)

Plus, plenty of accessories to utilize with whoever, to boot.

[Captain Nash]

Thanks Boy Blunder! That is a great start and exactly what I had in mind. I'll definitely take other suggestions because in total I'm thinking of getting somewhere between 20-40 figures for this. I know that's a lot but I have big dreams

No problem. There's also another figure on the way, Valkyrie, who is the only woman in the line (so far), but from what I've seen of her in-game design, she could definitely look like a Shi'ar transfer student

Originally, I just wanted to grab a set of four Wild Cards, but I might need to get that Leviathan.

Brite Bomber would be cool, but I'd love a Dark Bomber and a Drift. Those would definitely make some fun goons (especially since both a Brite and Dark Bomber could totally be some roller derby-style backup for a Harley Quinn)
