This much snow in Middle TN is a very odd occurrence.

indeed it is. But at least most of us have power. Hoping all that are in devastatingly affect areas of the country are finding ways to keep safe and warm. Don't burn your figures for fire - plastic is not a good source of heat!

You said it, my friend. I have family in Texas and they are completely dead in the water.

Haha Same. It's quite infectious. Which I guess is fitting. Now the long wait for the next episode...

I don't like that the retro 3.75" figures are branded "marvel legends". It's stupid. Call it something else.

Veronica Mars · 02-19-2021, 09:12 AM

Finally Quasar

Ultra Seven · 02-19-2021, 09:26 AM

Man... I am not feeling that new Doctor Doom.

But Quasar, holy crap. Yay! I’ve wanted that figure since the line started. Can’t believe we’re finally getting him. I figured that if we got Quasar in the line, it’d be a modern version.

usernamedustin · 02-19-2021, 09:27 AM

The Hood looks terrible. The actual hood is a terrible sculpt.

Ultra Seven · 02-19-2021, 09:28 AM

Woah. Conversely, Lady Deathstrike looks fantastic.

Sorry, catching up on the video. Quasar is very welcome! My list of needed Avengers is getting less and less with his addition.

Deathstrike looks amazing and I'm so excited to get this figure.

But god. I wanted a Hood figure and figured I'd order him too, but he looks awful. Is this a joke? Seriously on the fence with him. Do I really want a figure of him bad enough to be content with a rubbish figure? I mean come on. It's 2021. There's no excuse for that.

Xemnu - I'm not a super huge Hulk fan so while he looks neat, this is definitely passable. Looks like just Deathstrike and maybe Hood (ugh) for me from this wave.

Ultra Seven · 02-19-2021, 09:33 AM

Jesus Christ, XEMNU?!

Goddamn it, now I have to get that crappy Doom & Hood.

Should we get a crash-cart in for BoogieMan4Hire?

usernamedustin · 02-19-2021, 09:34 AM

Xenmu?

I was really hoping for Mephisto.

Q Prime · 02-19-2021, 09:36 AM

I'll get Dormammu, Aim Supreme and maybe Red Skull from the villain wave.

Ultra Seven · 02-19-2021, 09:37 AM

Aw, man, that’s all?

Yeah I dunno how he looks WORSE than that prototype for the fans choice poll from like... 2009 I think?

Veronica Mars · 02-19-2021, 09:38 AM

Anyone recognize the sword?

Yeah I agree. and I seriously doubt well ever get another shot at him unless Marvel once again tries to make him a big bad (oh wait Bendis is at DC now, he's NO ONE'S favorite now! and this figure certainly won't help).

Vex · 02-19-2021, 09:40 AM

I seriously consolidated my shelves within the last month. Deathstrike is a must. I thought I'd always instantly grab God Emperor Doom... but I'm a little disappointed they went with the tunic-less torso. On the fence on if I need Red Skull and Dormammu though they both look amazing.

Edit: oh shit, it IS Excalibur. Boxset maybe?

Dr Kain · 02-19-2021, 09:42 AM

Bummed out there was no Banshee reveal.

Arcade is still the only absolute must buy of the villains wave for me. I'll most likely get Deathstrike as well. I kind of want Dormammu, but it will depend on whether or not we are going to get a classic Strange. Red Skull looks great too despite the arm band should be a swatstika and not the Hydra logo.

No interest in Doom, ML Scalper, and that giant monster whose name I do not know how to spell.

I sure hope so. I know it's a smaller team and Nightcrawler looks almost the same as his standard outfit if not exactly, but in doing all the 90's X-Men teams they totally skipped over Excalibur. And we know it's wanted.
