and as usual, Shartimus even said in the beginning of that video he already has gripes about the head sculpt for green phoenix jean grey. I buy the way I think the head sculpts look fine to me

The problem is she doesn't look like Jean to me. I keep looking at my Claremont omnibus and I just don't see it. The green is wrong. The face and hair are all wrong. I'm not expecting a complete 1:1 translation, but when everyone else is pretty spot on despite having changes, she just looks out of place. Even 97 Nightcrawler is more accurate despite the hair change.

I've decided to order the Mafex one, but I'll get this with my $35 BBTS order for the phoenix accessory.

I'm planning on swapping the head to one of 3 pack heads. I feel like they went with a cooler toned green to contrast with the phoenix effect.

At D23 it's been confirmed that Polaris, and Danger will appear in X-MEN 97 Season 2.

A sneak peak was shown.

The X-Men will be wearing the Grant Morrison suits as well.

Havok, Sabretooth and Lady Deathstrike will also be in season 2

[Veronica Mars]

Yeah. 97 bad news. Those Morrison suits are hot wet garbage.

And we will they? Or is the fan service cameo machine being kicked into overdrive?

[WallySparks]

Even though this isn't a Marvel Legends Dr Doom figure, I'm impressed with the bunch of accessories crammed into the boxed set along with the Dr Doom figure

[WallySparks]

Now, why cant Hasbro do the same thing with Marvel Legends figures?

sure you would have to pay probably 100 bucks for an Ultimate Deluxe Marvel Legends figure for something like Retro Spider-man figure with an unmasked head, a camera, a backpack and probably bunch of extra hands for whatever purpose.

That Mezco Dr Doom figure while expensive at least it comes with a bunch of crap

Mezco is just legends with soft goods. Personally i dont feel mezcos are worth as that soft goods stuff is gonna deteriorate, flake and peel.

[Dr Kain]

The soft goods is exactly why I just can't bring myself to dive into them even though their Green Goblin and FF look really good.

I'll suffer those suits, if it means we get more Emma Frost in the next season.

What blows my mind is here we are a billion dollars and over 2 weeks after deadpool and wolverine and yet we have no action figures from hasbro in any scale... a LOT of money left on the table. I know they didn't want spoilers but wave 1 could have been a case of deadpools. I just ordered a knockoff sh figurarts deadpool 2 for now.

Perhaps Disney did not give them any characters to make figures of? I mean, pretty much the two waves of X-Men 97 figures we got were based on the art they showed publically like a year ago.

You are more dedicated than I. I'm definitely considering not watching if those suits are the majority of the season

[WallySparks]

never mind the damn soft goods cape. jeez

what about the jet pack attachments that plug into Doom's back. Plus that harness accessory that reminds me of DeSaad's thing from the old DC Super Powers.

that and multiple hands for Doom and a removable face mask revealing his face, etc

Bonebreaker wave Sabretooth aka 1970s-1980s Sabretooth figure came in the mail today.

Now all I need are the Iron Fist, a Black Cat and black symbiote outfit SPider-Man to reenact the story arc involving Black Cat, Spider-Man and Sabretooth
