I check Amazon daily in hopes the Ant-Man wave is showing up. Not so much the four pack. As soon as I see the ant Man wave, I will post the link right after I get my preorder in.

Now that we've seen Yellow Jacket from the movie, I'm super disappointed we're not getting a movie figure of him.

Regarding current comics in general, I am saddened. Nova is dead and replaced by yet another high-school aged character, the Guardians of the Galaxy have been altered way too much to fit the movie crew, and X-books are getting the short end of the stick. I'm seriously still super bummed about Richard Rider being a skeleton floating in another dimension and almost nobody in the stories seems to give a crap. I can only wait until he is revived, along with Wolverine.

And that's the problem with comics. I think a much more successful business model would be to do away with the shared universe altogether, and allow writers and artists to do mini-series (twelve issues at the most) with a definitive beginning, middle, and end using any characters they want.
No continuity. No decades of sloppily edited stories and convoluted events. Just great artists and writers making great stories without restrictions - basically what DC has been doing with Earth One, and what Marvel's Ultimate universe started out as, but without the need to continue each story until they wear out their welcome. But that's just me. I am currently committed to a couple months out on Previews orders but if things do not get better from both companies...so much for comics...again. |

I may be the only one who thinks this, but I've really loved Bendis' run on Uncanny X-Men. He's brought the title back to its core, being socially relevant, and the new characters he's introduced are FAR beyond those Jason Aaron made up in WaTXM (Shark Girl? Eye Boy? Ridiculous) or Generation Hope (flying, super speed, and fire/ice powers, very original).
Unlike the others, Bendis takes time in exploring his cast's powersets, which I really appreciate. I'd LOVE to see figures of Tempus, Triage, Goldballs, Hijack and The Stepford Cuckoos, who have needed figure representation for years. Also, I've never been a fan at all of the disco diva Dazzler. Ultimate Dazzler continues to be one of Bendis' greatest contributions to comics, so I'm glad to see her adopting a more rockabilly design. She'd make a great figure too.

Anyway, Iron Fist is cool because I like the amount of hands he comes with. On the other hand, I don't like how his hip articulation works. Odin is awesome, however I think mine has two left feet. The legs are different, but the feet appear to be identical. Not sure what I can do about that though. Oh yeah, and yesterday while I was at a different Walmart I saw this: ![]()

Got this guy in the post today from Amazon. Even though I wish the leg joints were different and the green on the torso doesn't quite match that of the head and arms, I think it's a great figure. Of all the Ruffalo Hulk figures we've had so far from Hasbro, this one has the best head-sculpt, in my opinion at least. Here he is with his predecessor from the 2008 movie.

Aside from Moonstar or Jessica Jones I'd want Sersi.
I just read the eternals, and if I can't get the whole lot of them I want a Sersi/Crystal swap, they can be their more iconic suits or the 90s looks with the leather avengers jackets, I don't care.

Cloak and Dagger are highly desired for me, as well as classic Electro. I'd like to see a classic Eddie Brock Venom from Hasbro though, as well as them finally getting around to Blade (on a new buck hopefully) and a few more female figures, namely Mary Jane, Gwen Stacy, and Typhoid Mary. |

I have a ton of ML I want to see but my top wants (not necessarily in order)
1. Polaris. Okay, yes, this is definitely my most wanted. Anyone familiar with my posts by now though likely knows this already. 2. Enchantress 3. Selene (Doubtful will happen EVER but can't stop a guy from wanting it done!) Far and above those are my top 3. Beyond that not in any real order just most wanted Justice Firestar Spectrum/Monica Rambeau) Mockingbird Sersi Moonstar Magik Madrox Marrow Syrin Exodus Shadow King (FAF) Attuma (BAF) Morgan Le Fey Songbird Citizen V Mach IV Fixer Graviton Count Nefaria Deathbird Northstar Aurora Snowbird Shamen Cloak Dagger I guess you'd say that's my top 30. |

When it comes to making want lists, I'm about ready to give up. I know I'm at the point where I'l buy just about anyone haha.
But really, I want 90's X-Force and X-Factor members. Preferably in the 90's costumes. I don't know if it will happen, but it would be cool. |

I saw Thanos Spider-Woman today but she had a slash through her left eye and a huge glob of paint on her stomach, so I passed on her. I'll just have to hope I see her again and next time it will be a better one.

Wow! I am very impressed with both of these Hulk Figures. On the left of your screen we have the new BAF ML Avengers 6' Hulk and on the right is the older Walmart Exclusive Avengers Movie Masters 6' Hulk. The ML one is a little bit taller, is wearing the Avengers uniform pants and with two fists he is ready to SMASH. The MM one has a much more defined and muscular back, is wearing the classic torn pants and has his left hand open ready to CRUSH. I really love both of these figures!

Wow, there's a lot more re-molding there than I thought. Are the shins/feet the same?

I picked up the Unmasked Captain America at the Disney store this past weekend. Nice paint apps, but the facial sculpt doesn't really look like Chris Evans that much. There is an alternate masked head sculpt in the package but no other accessories aside from a base. The base looks like it was lifted from the inside of a Heli-carrier.
![]() This was the last one in the store I visited. I checked their website and it was still available on there if anyone else is looking to get one. When I get to opening it for a review I plan to do a side-by-side comparison with the Marvel Legends version.

As someone who isn't a huge fan but wants to round out the Avengers, is there a Marvel Legends/Select Hulk figure which is generally considered to be the best? I have a growing comic Avengers collection, but all of the Hulk figures don't seem to be particularly quintessential depictions of the character. Any thoughts? |
