She was a possibility for me as well. Considering this wave should be in stores soon, i might try hunting her instead of ordering.

Your right, but the ones that are, cannonball, domino, and warpath,and of course a main x-force villain, Stryfe, are stupid high right now and I don't see them being redone any time soon. But we did just get cable, and shatterstar is comping soon, if they do a sunspot or Syrine in the upcoming waves we'll be on our way to a whole team.

That Spidey had better not be a repack of the SDCC version (and with the proper accessories), because I just bought that on Ebay haha

Really excited to final see MJ, but that Spiderman?...What kind of figure will he be? Because the SDCC and Pizza Spiderman are going to be hard top in my opinion.

Maybe it'll be a repack (with slight deco variation) of Pizza Spidey, with some additional/different accessories, like an adult Peter Parker head and hands to hold a camera accessory?

That's a safe bet.

Looking forward to the prospect of more upcoming 2-packs. They generally don't just release one at a time, right? Don't they usually release a companion set? I know that's how the 3.75 2-packs were released.

Even as a cosmic fan, I just cannot bring myself to order that wave. The movie figures are not calling to me at all. I am also a little perplexed by the choice of Titus for the BAF. I think I will just try to hunt for Sam, Angela and Darkhawk.

Was there a second two-pack with the recent War Machine/Disco Iron Man pack?

You are right. My only interest is Angela. I intend to support the wave regardless. I want to encourage Disney/Marvel/Hasbro to continue to produce Marvel Cosmic figs.

Titus is very cool looking IMO. Would I have preferred a Ravenous or new comic Ronan? Hell yeah. Titus will make for a cool filler alien...maybe a crossover with DCUC.

The movie figs have some use for head swaps and back ground characters...

Bo Ttef · 01-01-2017, 12:46 PM

Movie Ronan would have ben a perfect BAF for this wave- but Titus? Good for the folks that have been wanting him, but for me it means I can skip buying a case and just get Vance and the movie figures.

kylactus · 01-01-2017, 01:13 PM

Who wanted Titus? He's the only BAF so far that I have no desire to have. Not to knock anyone who's a fan of him, but honestly I'm a bit of a walking marvel encyclopedia and I only know he's been on the GOTG cartoon. As far as his story, purpose, or anything else I've got nothing. And, again sory if your a Titus fan, he looks like something from ninja turtles. I do want to get all the movie figures, kid novas a pass, Angela is a must, but only because I grew up in the 90's and love spawn. As for dark hawk, I would have gotten him if I wanted the BAF, but as a stand alone even my 3.75 DH just doesn't fit in anywhere.

Augustus_Cole · 01-01-2017, 01:27 PM

yeah i saw them go up on bbts via an email earrrrly this morning...

i'm in agreement with most here so far...
first wave (since ordering waves) i'm not going to get...
and i really think that BAF is mehhhh and this'll be the first BAF since i've been collecting that i'm fairly certain i do not want.

I'll be cherry picking these as well...I'm sure I'll have them after everyone else because it seems like my region...oddly enough...gets things later than most.

Darkhawk, Nova, Yondu, and probably Angela for me..

*update*
on second thought...does anyone def want starlord, vance, and Drax...maybe i will order a case..

TheBlueMarvel · 01-01-2017, 01:42 PM

That was a funny flip there, Dark! lol

I don't think Titus has any actual fans because the guy barely existed, people can like his look but there's not enough substance to appreciate the character. I don't watch any of the current cartoons but he debuted as Sam Nova's first villain when Sam's first volume began. It's hard to call him Sam's nemesis or anything though because Sam uses the ultimate nullifier to obliterate the guy in issue 5.

Anyway I plan on getting Angela and Darkhawk for sure but I'll most likely also get kid Nova because against my initial thoughts Sam has grown on me.

AFU · 01-01-2017, 03:02 PM

Titus, Darkhawk, Angela, Vince Astro, and the rest will be a pass...Hey, maybe Titus can be reused for Strongman!

Trivial Psychic · 01-01-2017, 03:14 PM

I know everyone is picking on Titus atm, but remember, these are toys folks, and that's what makes them great! Want Titus to battle the Ninja Turtles? He can! Want Titus to team up with Spider-Man to battle Captain America and Ghost Rider? You can! Want Titus to date MCU Scarlett Witch? Go right ahead! Want Titus to winning the WWE title from John Cena at Summerslam? He can do that too!

We all groaned about the Eel (or scratched our heads at least) but he turned out pretty cool, and he's been a bit more of a major player in my desktop adventures that's for sure, as opposed to being a Serpent Society whipping boy.

That said, I want Titus, I just don't care for the rest of the wave outside of Angela and the new Starlord, lol. I'll wait on Drax, as I'm not dropping 20+ on an updated headsculpt. I'll just wait for the headcast. I might take Titus and use him for a custom TigerClaw for my NECA Turtles, or I'll just keep him as is. He's a tiger from outer space with a proverbial and literal cannon for an arm (Titus that is, not Andy Dalton...) How cool is that?...

Titus will be battling the Sinister Six while riding on top of my 2 foot tall movie Godzilla with a taco in his hand...because these are toys dammit!

Oh, and happy new year, I haven't been drinking, I promise...

decepticon_mark · 01-01-2017, 04:05 PM

I can understand all this anti Titus stuff but keep in mind for every obscure figure you may or may not like there is probably someone who wants it. Plus if there are too many complaints we might end up with wave after wave of just Iron Mans,Caps,and Spideys. Case in point I personally don't care for the movie figures I will be getting Yondu to hold a place on my little universe for him til a comic version comes along if ever. I actually do want Titus as well as Vance,Angela,Nova,and Darkhawk because I collect based on trying to have EVERYONE in the Marvel Universe living in my collection. So like with Eel and so many others if you don't want/like Titus then don't build him.

just my two cents.

TheBlueMarvel · 01-01-2017, 04:20 PM

Ha! Remember what you said about Titus...

This is a prelude to the future...

3233rafael · 01-01-2017, 04:22 PM

Well, let's see...from this wave, I'm only getting...all of them. From the next wave though, I'm only going to get...all of them. Oh but for the next wave after that, for sure I'm only going to get...all of them. I'm only going to get every wave, every two pack, three pack, four pack, five pack, SDCC exclusives, single carded exclusives...etc! I'm only getting ALL OF THEM!

donmeca2020 · 01-01-2017, 04:55 PM

Im curious as to when death's head II will come out, and with what wave ? He's notba cosmic figure, not street level... im kinda stumped on him. All i know is he is a MUST BUT for me!

Hes a must tor me too donny. Id put him in the GUY YOU DON'T WANNA F#%K with category.

TheBlueMarvel · 01-01-2017, 05:10 PM

I think the speculation was that Death's head will be in a wave with Adam Warlock...

hasbroherofan · 01-01-2017, 05:10 PM

Who is or isn't popular enough to be deserving of a figure is all subjective anyway. I mean, remember when people kept predicting Spider-Gwen was gonna flop and end up as a huge pegwarmer because she's supposedly not popular enough? Or the exact same thing with Ms. Marvel just a few months ago?

People online aren't always good at gauging these sorts of things.
