Key takeaways:

- J. Jonah Jameson and Firestar will be retro carded figures. Firestar comes with Ms. Lion

- We're supposed to get another Bullseye. No word on whether it's male Bullseye or Lady Bullseye, but they'll be retro carded (my hunch is it's gonna be male Bullseye for this reason, as Lady Bullseye is a fairly modern character)

- 2 7-figure Spider-Man waves for next year

- 2 7-figure Avengers waves. Neither are the Joe Fix-It wave.

- There may or may not be another 7 figure X-Men wave assortment. Unknown if this is the upcoming House/Powers of X wave with an extra new figure added onto the initial assortment or something more standard

- A 7 figure comic-based wave with an unknown theme, and another 7 figure wave simply branded as "Classic"

- 3 Deluxe figures, one assumed to be the Classic Thanos we just saw

- Fantastic Four retro-carded wave as pretty much everyone previously speculated

Rektangular counted 79 figures leaked for next year in total so far

Neat. That's also not counting stuff he may not have heard about. It's gonna b epacked next year.

At least one of those Avengers wave is probably Gamerverse. Not sure what the other is....maybe a tie-in to WandaVision or Falcon and Winter Soldier?

While they will take up more space, they're a lot studier than the Figuarts stands I was using, for obvious reasons. The Figuarts ones are still great for female bodies, but damn it was so nice to replace the stands I've got Nightcrawler and Human Torch using and I gave one to Cannonball. I also love how they have pegs on the base you can use for figure feet if you want someone standing below your flying (or web slinging) character.

I've got 1 more left for Marvel to use and 2 others I'm debating if I want to split between GI Joe and Power Rangers or just give them both to the PR stuff.

If Hasbro does produce Doombots, I sincerely hope they are the old-timey purple people eaters Byrne illustrated and popularized...

Starlord67 · 10-09-2020, 05:37 PM

Just got notification that my Hellfire goons have shipped. Only two of the six though.

Exact same story for me.

MeLikeJinx · 10-09-2020, 06:22 PM

The X-men movies figs are crazy popular where I live... both my Targets sold completely out of everything in less than two days. And my Targets were charging 29 dollars for the X-men movie singles too... crazy. Even the Hawkeye 2 packs all sold out too.

I will die happy if Banshee is in a 2 pack with 2 figures that I actually need to complete an X team. The last time that happened was the Havok/Polaris 2 pack I think.

I think if they're going to do Banshee in a two pack, it's either going to be with Siryn or yellow jumpsuit Moira. Although what's the logic with Pyro and Legacy Rogue, so who knows

MeLikeJinx · 10-09-2020, 06:38 PM

^ Yah, that Pyro 2 pack sucks for me... it basically feels like paying 50 bucks just for Pyro... it is like a mental hurdle I cannot cross... not for Pyro anyway. For Banshee I probably would though. LOL.

Hulkwummy · 10-09-2020, 06:57 PM

We still need A 90s X-Factor Wolfsbane to complete the 90s X-Factor roster. the sooner Hasbro makes a furry female sculpt, the better.

Yeah, I figure that Rogue costume is close enough to her unity squad look I can put her with the Avengers

sh002 · 10-09-2020, 07:59 PM

All 7 of my Hellfire Club Guards finally shipped.

Yes. They need to make Feral too. I saw the rumor about a retro X-Force wave and, if true, I would bet money that it will include a legged Cannonball. I would hope it includes Feral and Domino. I assume as soon as either Feral or Wolfsbane gets made, the other will follow shortly after. Hell, Hasbro could do like the "Family Matters" 3-pack and give us the "Purrfect Strangers" two-pack and just let us finish X-Factor and X-Force at the same time.

They could do a Banshee and Vulcan two-pack.

I just got a notification that they shipped out the other 2 I ordered.

Also, I picked up the Prof X/Magneto movie 2 pack at Target tonight:

Anyone want Magneto? $27 shipped to the US. If so, PM me.

I don't like him one bit. I mean, I was already planning to sell him off, but I was slightly hoping I would like the figure enough to want to keep it, but nope, that is not the case. I kind of would like to see the unhelmeted heads to use as background characters when I could get bodies from them, but if I can sell him off now, it'll be worth it. The neck is too long so you HAVE to keep the cape on the body and they sculpted him like a female body so he has a cut between the upper and lower torso, but no crunch or waist swivel. Some of his joints are super tight while others are a tad on the loose side. The paint apps look great though, but he's definitely not for me.

As for Prof X, he's cool. I keep going back and forth how I want to display him. I was planning to just use him in the wheelchair with the McAvoy head and have him with my Giant Sized team, but now I'm wondering if I should put him in the Hover Chair with the Stewart head while having the rider version be the one in the wheelchair. I really like the new jacket and vest they added to this body. Gives a nice variation from having so many figures with just a bland suit and tie.

I think we're more likely to see are Feral, Rictor and Siryn three pack to finish out X-Force

It'll be Storm and Thunderbird round 2

Spidercide, Hyperion/Omega Red body or BaF?

joewolf · 10-09-2020, 10:34 PM

A MODOK adult animated series is coming next year. It would be great if they re-issued the MODOK figure to go along with it... Modok on a card like Kingpin?

warmachine6 · 10-10-2020, 01:58 AM

I hope the x-men movie wave gets a wave 2.
I would love to have figures from X-men 2 like : Magneto, Uniformed Wolverine, er maybe lady deathstrike as well.

MeLikeJinx · 10-10-2020, 02:21 AM

^ Yah, Kelly Hu needs to get a modern action figure with the new face sculpting. I only ever met one famous person and got their autograph... and that was Kelly Hu in '94 I think it was.

Veronica Mars · 10-10-2020, 02:31 AM

Could the House/Powers of X BaF a normal size figure like Okoye and Mantis?
