Wow I'm surprised they gave Domino such realistic looking guns, I thought they were cutting back on that?

Nice. The guns could work for Falcon.

Boy Blunder · 07-20-2020, 05:21 PM

Now, these are what I'm about. That two-pack and that Domino are definitely gonna be mine. They look so good.

Spyne98 · 07-20-2020, 05:48 PM

So how about some early pics of that Hellfire Club set, or maybe that Rogue/Pyro or Storm/Thunderbird 2 packs?

Veronica Mars · 07-20-2020, 06:34 PM

So we're all thinking Hellfire Club, but we know there's a HoX/PoX wave coming, so couldn't the con exclusive relate to that and be the Hellfire Trading Company? That's Sebastian and Shinobi Shaw, Kate Pryde and Bishop, and Emma and Christian Frost, though I don't really see the appeal of a Christian Frost or Shinobi Shaw action figure

Were this the case, I’d be wildly disappointed. Really hoping for a Black Queen.

Starlord67 · 07-20-2020, 06:59 PM

I'm old school...I want the Hellfire club set to be Shaw, Frost, Leland, Pierce, Wyngarde and Grey. I can see Selene as a single release. Just my 2 pennies.
I'm hoping HoX/PoX will come next year.

Is this a new bike or is it the riders Widow bike?

Definitely new. Riders Widow's bike was a lot more realistic looking.

Didn't even know they revealed a Baroness though. The new G.I. Joe line has been killing it.

hasbroherofan · 07-20-2020, 07:29 PM

I don't expect to see any of the Hellfire women as single releases because of the fetish designs. This is reminding me of when Satana was released in an SDCC box set; Hasbro using con exclusivity to release a character they likely couldn't do at a mass retailer.

Now Shaw being re-released as a shirtless variant I can totally see.

Target exclusive because HasBRUH hates me

White Rabbit - Playboy Cocktail Waitress in a trench coat
Psylocke - French cut Ninja bathing suit.
Back in the day Tigra - Cat Girl in a bikini

So maybe the hellfire female characters won't have thongs jammed up their cracks, but short of that there are more risque action figures out there

While I don't hate this idea (I even said something similar earlier today to a friend), I want classic 1st.

Not the same thing. Emma and Selene are straight up in bondage gear, which is more salacious than a bikini. I don't expect to see them at Target anytime soon.

Not really, no gimp masks, they don't have gags or choke collars, no swings slings or shackles, Selene had a whip but it wouldn't be the first time they omitted an accessory. So you have the costumes themselves which are effectively White Rabbit without the coat or Walgreens Emma. If the WWE Divas can rock bra tops and chaps and Black Canary's leather bustier and fishnets are fair game so are Emma and Selene

I definitely think it's classic. They already have Emma's Byrne head.

Then I guess we won't be seeing FA Storm at Target either considering her costume is far more risque than Selene's

Like I just said, skimpy and fetish are not the same thing. Classic Storm is basically in a swimsuit.

A leather swimsuit held together by a metal ring. There's nothing inherently fetish about Emma and Selene, you've read the comics and you're making the association. Hasbro has already released 4 figures at mass retail in corsets one of whom is an under-aged character. White Rabbit, Typhoid Mary, MCU Wanda and Sister Grimm

Hard disagree. It's not just the corset. The whole visual calls bondage to mind in a way the others don't. Like I said, if they end up in stores, more power to 'em, but I'm not expecting it.

Veronica Mars · 07-20-2020, 08:15 PM

How are Emma and White Rabbit any different?

One's in a fetish outfit, the other isn't.
