Yeah, but I need another Nightcrawler to go with the team since the one I have is apart of my Claremont X-Men display.

The new Surfer head and hands look awesome. Love the base too.

I want to love the Shadowcat figure, since I’ve wanted classic Kitty Pryde forever. But I’m not feeling the headsculpt. I feel like she need bigger hair, and the overall look just seems off. I’ll totally settle, but I am underwhelmed.

The close up pics of Shriek, they nailed the Bagley look

I'm not a fan of the smiling faces on Meggan and Kitty, the should have alt neutral expression head

[ariellagunas]

Armadillo, great! Will sell four of those figures thou.

I want whatever Meggan and Kitty had.
At this point Rachel deserves a deluxe figure with Phoenix effect and alt heads.

Quite like the Eternals, but won’t be rushing to get them all at once as I normally do.

And yaay for Frankie. Couldn’t care less for Surfer. I have three already.

The Shield and skrulls look like fun., but I wish they’d done one male and one female. With The Countess Valentina head. The Shield heads could have been known characters also, like Pierce, Gabe, Woo, Dum Dum, Quartermain… miss opportunity. But I’m sure they’ll make us buy them again with those heads.

[Mimicboy]

Mainly I came to say Yaaaaassssss, Shadowcat! She could definitely look better but she looks good enough for me to still feel pumped fir her release! Hopefully the pack will be easily acquirable because I totally need one asap. Meggan looks okay but she is going to be a pain to stand up with all that hair, lol!

Love someone else mentioning Clay Quartermain, I thought I was literally the only one who wanted a figure of him. I think the Asian agent head (what weird strings of words I put together on this forum) would work well as a Jimmy Woo, but your mileage may vary. The black agent head could work as Gabe Jones if you applied some grey to the hair.

[Black Arbor]

Mother. Fudging. Armadillo!

[Spyne98]

I enjoyed the Livestream today. I'm excited for the Excalibur 3 pack. Armadillo looks awesome! But I just want Morlun and Shriek so I guess I have to hunt the parts down.

[Captain Nash]

I’m at work at the office and just reading comments as i was unable to watch the stream. Excited for Morlun and the excalibur set, even if shadowcat is not exactly accurate, in addition to the Stepford Wife expression. I assume these go for preorders tomorrow?

Hope for 2021, otherwise i may ask a friend if i can have these delivered to their house. These I don’t want to miss out on.

[Dr Kain]

I figured out what looks odd to be on Shadowcat, her hair is straight, not curly. Beyond that, she's great. Does the set go up for preorder tomorrow?

I know they said the Skrulls would not be until later this year.

Yep, that’s definitely it! Couldn’t quite put my finger on it, there we go. I don’t think the set is up for pre-order tomorrow, I think tomorrow is just the Spider-Man stuff.

[Captain Nash]

Her hair is not curly and her sleeves are not puffy enough but it’s still good.

[Nimrod]

The Skrull grunts were the big "yes" reveal for me as they are on the exact buck I was hoping they would be on. The alternate head is great. The Super Skrull will look awesome leading a squad of Skrull grunts into battle. I'll be getting 10 of these! SHIELD 2 pack looks great as well but shoulda been a 3 pack being as they included 3 alternate unhelmeted head sculpts. Love the variety of weapons & hands they came with as well. Will go for getting 4-6 at least. Only care for CB, so the ladies will be sold off soon as I get em. I'll pair up Brian with Union Jack as a 2 man team protecting the motherland or teaming up with American heroes every now & then. Excaliber as a team never really did anything for me. Armadillo is very cool looking but was never a character I really cared for so the entire wave is a pass except Morlun, whom I will throw my TB Dracula head on to have a more modern day Dracula.

I'd like if the Skrull army builder is a sign that we'll get Kl'rt on his own soon-ish. Again, my wait for deluxe Rhino goes on.

If we do get a another Kl'rt, I hope it's his Annihilation look as a measure to avoid redundancy.

But redundancy is hasbros standard mo.

[Nimrod]

Those Skrull grunt head sculpts will look great on my Kl'rt as I prefer the lighter Green color & the "mean" head is better than the "Smirking" head they gave Kl'rt, the closed mouth version is just a repaint of the one that came with Kl'rt but the "mean" head sculpt is new. Been waiting like 15yrs for army building Skrull grunts. You can put them in battle vs everyone, not just the FF.

Just as with your Death's Head declaration, I'm inclined to agree.

[Spyne98]

I think the only thing that's on sale tomorrow is the Spider-Man wave

[Super Joe]

Dwight said a few weeks back, more was possible, just like Sentinel's extra Tri-Sentinel noggin. If given an extension - a tongue licking Galactus face - would be easy to make. Or an Aunt May / Golden Oldie in the hilarious Hostess Twinkie issue!

I would have preferred the whole team or a couple two-packs. Captain Britain with Meggan and Shadowcat with Phoenix.

I hope that they get to Rachel soon.
It will probably be in a two-pack with a Nightcrawler reissue.
That would definitely be a Hasbro move.

If Hasbro really loved me, they would include an alternate Shadowcat head in with Rachel.

Dead horse, but I agree on all counts. It’s great to be getting her, but I’m annoying she’s not perfect since we’re not likely to be getting another pass at her. Including a better headsculpt with Rachel would be awesome. For now, I’ll throw her on the pile of “close but no cigar” with Tigra (another favorite character of mine).

Here here! The particular art I chose is just a perfect encapsulation of why Kitty is my favorite mutant. And his Lockheed is just wonderful… I love him holding the screwdriver for her. The way Davis drew the little guy always reminded me of my childhood dog (who was instead called Krypto, because he predated any awareness of Lockheed on my part).

[MeLikeJinx]

Yah, Shadowcat is definitely not 80's enough, but we went through the exact same thing with Rogue with the Juggernaut wave Rogue and then Retro card Rogue. They will probably release an updated giant curly hair/poofy shirt Shadowcat later on on a Retro card... this version is good enough IMO. I am just so happy to finally get a comic 3 pack in which I actually need all 3 figures.
