Wow, there's a lot to unpack with the reveals. Definitely a nice spread all around.
Gotta say that my top 3 reveals so far have to be:
1) Retro Gwen Stacy
2) FA Storm
3) Legacy Rogue.

With Gwen Stacy it's nice to see a civilian character see release, and not just as the hero's plus-one in some store exclusive two-pack. This Gwen looks pretty fantastic, and the added sculpt details and new parts really do the tragic character justice.

First appearance Storm looks amazing. Not much I can say that others haven't already said, but wow I'm surprised Hasbro has turned out another Storm so quickly. I believe I read that she'll be a deluxe release, so I can't wait to see all of the accessories that Hasbro will include with her.

Wow, Legacy Rogue has been in action figure limbo for so long. Glad to see the figure actually gain a release. Not the "modern" costume that I necessarily wanted, but I absolutely love Rogue so this one will be bought on sight with no questions asked.

[Veronica Mars]

Is legacy Rogue still using that Sharon Carter head?

One thing I'm curious about with the X-Men movie figures is whether or not we'll get them in uniforms. And if so, will it be for X-Men or X2?

2022 would actually be the 20th anniversary for the first Spiderman film. We may have to wait a couple of years to get those figures .

I wonder if they still have the rights to Alfred Molina's likeness to make a Doc Ock from Spiderman 2. I know Hasbro made him in the old Spiderman 3 wave but I don't know if those rights ever expire.

Shoot, I actually meant to type 2022 and I even looked over my message before posting but I screwed up I need to stop working so late hahahaha. I can't imagine Molina's likeness rights would be too expensive either way!

[Boogieman4hire]

I would only wish we could Willem into making Dafoe of Spiderman from the first movie, the Green Goblin. But all of that remains Tobey seen.

Those puns were terrible!!! And I'm a little mad I didn't think of them first!!!

[En Sabah Nerd]

So since we're getting AoA Apocalypse, we've gotta get Magneto right? Even if we don't get another AoA themed wave we could still get AoA Magneto in a regular X-wave.

[Sirth]

FA Storm, Black Tom, Leader, and Nimrod all look pretty cool.

With Storm, I can finally assemble a Giant-Size classic Uncanny X-Men roster. I'm looking forward to Banshee coming soon.

[urrutiap]

well either it was last year there was an Age of Apocalypse Magneto or just the Marvel Universe/Infinite Series 3 inch Age of Apocalypse Magneto figure a couple of years ago

I think it'd be hilarious if Hasbro made a Barakapool.

The only AoA Magneto Hasbro has ever done was the 4" one, which I do have, but I'd really like to see them deliver him in the 6" scale where they could give him both the helmeted and plain heads.

I try to avoid the cost of import figures as much as possible, even when they look great. I'll dip in for licenses that are getting or have gotten no figures otherwise, like how Storm Collectibles is the only company making Gears of War figures anymore, but with Marvel covered by Hasbro it better suits my budget to wait and see what happens.

My feelings as well. Or just do them as Fan Channel Exclusives where they don't show up in regular stores.

LMAO! That took me awhile to catch on to that!

[urrutiap]

ACtually there is a 5 inch Age of Apocalypse Magneto that did get made back in 1995 or 1996. Helmet is removeable. Im checking it out right now at amazon as were still talking about Age of Apocalypse figures here anyway.

That wasn't Hasbro but yeah he's okay. For that scale. I still have all my figures from that whole line scale, I can't get rid of them until they make a Legends Exodus!

But regarding that specific figure I'd hold off. There's a very very low chance there's not an AOA Magneto coming. Or at very least an AOA Magneto head that can be put on the 3 pack from last year.

[urrutiap]

Well I never said it was Hasbro brand of that 1995/1996 Age of Apocalypse Magneto figure. Im saying theres aready a figure and it still looks good and I said that there was a Marvel Universe/Infinite Series Age of Apocalypse Magneto from a couple of years ago anyway.

[urrutiap]

I couldve sworn last year's Toy Fair showed off a Marvel Legends Age of Apocalypse Magneto but not entirely sure but whatever.

Like I said before and others agree, that Hasbro workers are lurking here in the shadows spying on us checking out our posts etc. Some figures mostly the X-Men figures have been made like in an instant

So I wouldnt be surprised if Marvel Legends Age of Apocalypse Magneto will be shown later this year in another Toy Fair or theyre waiting until next year's Toy Fair.

I knew it. I told you so. But some of you people keep scoffing at our predictions here which have come true

I mean, it's pretty easy to predict AoA or a first appearance Storm is coming, I'll be impressed when you predict Forbush Man is coming and it happens!

[JCarterVA]

So many things on pre-order. It's going to take a few months for everything to ship from China unless it was produced and shipped before coronvirus hit. Spoke to a couple of manufacturers in hardware and computer industries and they estimate 60-120 days in delays.

[TheBlueMarvel]

@ urrutiap

I don't think people are 'scoffing' as much as they might be of the opinion that, without more definitive evidence, they're just not going to speculate about what amounts to a hunch.

People have been saying that Hasbro sifts through comments on popular social media for years, I've been one of those people and still believe it to be true. However, TheFwoosh has also been running annual fan polls for about as many years. Not only have those polls been reflective of comments here (there's a good amount of traffic between the Ark and Fwoosh), but their polls have also been pretty spot on and represent a semi-official tally.

I guess what I'm saying is that without some insight provided by Hasbro, we don't really know what combo of influencers or which rubric is used to deliver characters. The question becomes whether it even matters in the bigger picture. As long as you are getting what you want, what difference does it make?

Personally, my big wants have only been trickling in. Outside of the FF, OG Namor, a proper Hulk, a nearly perfect Surfer, Herc, and almost perfect Thor, I'm still waiting on a great many berths that I've promoted here numerous times.

Namely:
Blue Marvel
Quasar
Many Heralds
Mr. Hyde
U-Foes
Torgo
Zzzax
The Pantheon
The Inhumans
The Eternals
Strontium
Tyrant
Jack of Hearts
Caiera the Old, Old Strong
Titania
Son of Satan
Nightmare
D'Spayre
Barron Mordo
Barron Blood
Graviton
Count Nafaria
Bullet
Stick
Stone
Shaft
Star
Belasco
Marrina
Box
Talisman
Etc..

Sorry, that was my OCD kicking in. their original statement specifically said Hasbro, so I wasn't sure if there was confusion or not on that. I wasn't trying to be an ass
