Oh boy! Need to find a link!!

Hmm, now that you mention it.. I assumed Spider UK was on the Reaper buck, and ANAD Spider-Man 2099 on the Bucky one, but it's possible they're both new bodies. That's three new bucks in this wave alone. Interesting!

Also, given her inclusion in the poll, I can't resist quoting from Ellis and Deodato's Thunderbolts:

Hasbro is delivering tha' goods! hahhahahahahaaaa! A post production paint on Angela, and I'm good!

Boy Blunder · 07-21-2016, 11:46 AM

ALL OF MY YES.

Look at that Dazzler. Oh my god I think I'm gonna cry. She looks perfect! The color-fade on the energy effect REALLY works here. And she's got the roller-skates and the microphone!

Angela looks amazing too, though I'm hoping that gold gets a bit more spruced-up before release. Either make it shinier, or darker. That could be due to the nature of the image, though (screen-grab of a livestream, and not a still-camera photo).

Sam is so small and looks like he'll sit very nicely with Kamala and Miles. I know a lot of people are kinda 'eh' on him, but as a figure he looks like a welcome collection addition.

redfox · 07-21-2016, 11:47 AM

Wow, Hasbro did it. Can't believe we got the roller-skate Dazzler! Also, Angela looks fierce!

Here's the Marvel Livestream. You can go back on the video and see these figures revealed.

VonPooten · 07-21-2016, 11:47 AM

HOLY MACARONI. Now they are reveals!

Hemanguy · 07-21-2016, 11:51 AM

My gosh that Dazzler is brilliant. I thought for sure it was going to be the late uncanny X men costum, but that is a pleasant surprise!

Boy Blunder · 07-21-2016, 11:53 AM

I hope this means that we will see the rest of the rumored X-Wave before the weekend's over.

Come on, Polaris! Hasbro, do her right! I wanna see Nash flip!

hasbroherofan · 07-21-2016, 11:56 AM

I'm glad Hasbro is getting some mileage out of the Miles Morales body for teen boy figures. Wondering who else they could reuse it on.

I'm on cloud nine right now. I don't want to be greedy, but I really hope a Jane-Thor and Uncanny Avengers Vision are in our future so I can have a complete ANADA set.

Captain Nash · 07-21-2016, 11:58 AM

I'm not a computer today so just viewing on the phone. I'm loving what I'm seeing, confident that the single carded enchantress and Polaris will be the huge Saturday reveals. Absolutely love that Dazzler. I'll post more tonight but I'm feeling much expensive awesomeness coming up!

redfox · 07-21-2016, 12:01 PM

Few Marvel Legends notes from Livestream video:

*Dazzler is the first figure unveiled from the X-men wave of 2017.
*Angela will be in the first wave of Guardians of the Galaxy figures in Jan.-Mar. 2017.
*There are going to be 8 characters in Hasbro Fan-poll. Runs each day from Thursday to Sunday, with one match-up a day.

TheBlueMarvel · 07-21-2016, 12:01 PM

What I think I like about Dazzler most, outside of the retro outfit choice, is that Hasbro hit the 80's 'Farrah Fawcett-hairdo' to a tee! 80's greatness!

warmachine6 · 07-21-2016, 12:03 PM

wow they look awesome

Agreed. If they do a classic Ms. Marvel at some point the head sculpt could be an easy recycle.

Angela...i dunno something feels off...maybe its the face...looks kinda scrunched. And meh i already have the REAL Nova so sam is of zero interest.

Definitely. Hasbro did a bang-up job on her. The hair, the outfit details (collar, necklace, bell-bottoms), the new feet (who honestly expected the full roller skate option?), and the accessories (that color-fade energy is key, but they even gave her a microphone and a hand to properly hold it in). It's all just killer.

I'm wondering if the outfit will be a gloss white, a flat white, or have a metallic sheen to it. Hoping for the former or the latter - Disco Ali needs to have that shine!

VonPooten · 07-21-2016, 12:07 PM

^^Fully agreed. I'm quite frankly shocked that they went the extra mile with Angela, who I anticipated being a repaint of the Red She-Hulk buck with a new head, but to put such specific details into Dazzler?! Astonishing.

Vision's already being released in the three pack with FalCap and Kate Bishop.

The only one's we're missing now are Thor and Iron Man.

warmachine6 · 07-21-2016, 12:09 PM

i wonder if hasbro allows I.O.Us
