I remember hearing about a X-wave with Polaris and then a Wolverine wave. I think there might have been another or two alleged waves.

The only rumored waves I've heard of are the second X-wave (with Polaris) the Wolverine wave with Silver Fox and Deathstrike, and the Spider-Man wave with Ms. Marvel and Jackal. Those are the rumored waves that have had a full line up posted.

It's assumed we'll get something from Thor, Spider-Man Homecoming and GOTG but nothing to my knowledge has leaked yet.

I do suspect though that next year is going to go something like this if they have 9 waves again (assuming that the second X-wave and Spider-man wave rumored are indeed for this year)

First third of year:

Spider-Man wave 1
GOTG wave 1
Wolverine

Second third of year:

Spider-man wave 2 (focusing on Homecoming)
GOTG wave 2
Thor wave 1

Final Third of year

Spider-Man wave 3
X-Men wave (technically second X-Men wave considering Wolverine but we'll just leave it at X-men wave)
Thor wave 2.

I'm saying all this because it's a very heavy movie year (3 and Wolverine!) and also if the X-wave does sell like I suspect it will, they may indeed try to do 2 X-related waves a year. Between that and the movies there isn't much room for a general Marvel/Avengers wave.

Thanos, Ultron, Mephisto, the Watcher, Anti-Venom, Cloak and Dagger, and I think that's it. Truthfully, some fit better than others. Cloak and Dagger, for example, are way to big to fit in scale but they are the only representations of these characters that haven been made so far (not counting the Toy Biz pre-legends 2 pack). I might have a few more, but these are the ones that come to mind.

Agreed! Have you made any other changes to your display since these new figures have been released?

[TyranasauROSS]

I dig the new Spidey Headsculpt there. I was always kind of curious what a Scarlet Spider head with weblines would look like. Don't think I want to try going through the effort to just get him. The others in the set do look great though!

This I knew and yeah was kind of confusing actually.

Nice haul Raf! I'm wondering when that 3 pack will hit the Toys R Us near me.
I got my hands on a Namor the other day. The Walgreens by my house had one left. When I went to buy it, the cashier had explained that they had 6 in stock and some guy tried to buy all 6. They made him leave one behind because they didn't want him to buy the entire stock. I'm just glad I got mine.

[Captain Nash]

RAF! Long time no see! Awesome haul! Was the X-men stuff from online or did you actually see it out somewhere?

And you found the 3 pack. Argh hurting for that. I need to get my budgeting in order with that and the SDCC set and and and and lol.

I gotcha. Well, I might not care about Dreadnight since I know absolutely nothing about him, but it might not be worth it to buy just him alone when you would need the other two anyway.

Anyway, I finished reading Days of Future Past and I highly enjoyed it. I thought the Dante's Inferno story was quite intriguing as was the two parter with Wolverine and the Alpha Flight. Of course, I'm not a fan of Alpha Flight at all, so those were also the weakest of the stories in the book to me. I did love the two issues the book was titled after though. This was my first time ever reading those stories as I've only seen it in adaptation form with the X-Men cartoons and of course, the movie. Nice to finally read the original comic. And the last story with Kitty fighting some demon was confusing, yet enjoyable.

Man, these two books now have me wanting to read more. Have they collected the next batch of stories that come after this at all? If not, I'm probably going to get Fall of the Mutants next.

Oh, and I just ordered the 5 DVDs of the 90s cartoon off Amazon with some money I just made fro selling off some DCU stuff.

Thanks...also, there's 3 Walgreens here and I spoke to a manager in each one of the 3 and one of them did tell me that not every store will be getting them. He even told me that only one local store was getting these and he was right. So far only one local store received them.

Thanks! Yes, the X-Men stuff arrived yesterday from my BBTS pile of loot.

I know UXM From The Ashes collects issues 168-176 which has some great stuff, but if you skipped that you'd be missing both the X-Men's fight with the Shi'ar, issues 154-158 and one of the best stories aside from The Phoenix Saga and DOFP, the Brood Saga, issues 163-167. I know the Brood Saga was collected at one point but I'm not sure about the issues between DOFP and the Brood Saga. Also The Gift collects 189-198, Ghosts collects 199-209, and The Mutant Massacre (the first X-line crossover though it does pull some other issues) collects 210-214 and a whole bunch of other books, quality of which varies greatly.
I also recommend just trying to track down the Masterworks collections, though they can get expensive. That will get the you through From The Ashes material at very least.

After Fall Of The Mutants unfortunately the trade collections drop significantly, to mainly entail just the crossovers and events. But as Claremont ended his first and best run with issue 280, it really doesn't matter as much.

Awesome, I also got mine this past weekend but I was wondering if they were showing up in stores yet, I'd like to get another Kitty Pryde to try and do a Moonstar new mutant custom.

If this be true I am very excited about it especially because while I actually enjoyed Sam's story for awhile it has begun to drag.

They could easily both be Nova, perhaps the other characters will just have to call Rich Nova Prime which is technically his proper title. Nova is one of the few heroes that actually already has a system in place to account for there being multiple Novas serving the corps. Pretty much like how there are many Green Lanterns at once but actually with the Nova Corps it's easier to explain as they aren't sector specific.

'BOUT F€~KIN' TIME! I just hope he doesn't come back and he suddenly has eyes for the fellas or we get teased, like with the real quasar returning only to see him hand off the bands to another chick. If its just his ghost or something handing his helmet to someone else imma be SUPERBLY pissed!

I wnt RICHARD RIDER NOVA back kickn' ass. And someone smack marvel studios excs around u til they get a rider nova movie F$&kin' made already!

Either nova or call sam sova ( sam nova ) or novus. Richard Rider should be called Nova. Also just cause it took so llong id love nova to plant a soliid energized kick into starlords groin for leavin him behind.

That's pretty cool sounded. I wonder who the focus will be on. I really funny how all this X-stuff has started dropping out the sky once a particular person no longer was as hands on the property's marketing.

Right now only Ultron. I was using the select Venom until the Absorbing Man wave Venom was released. Still torn on whether I should replace my select Juggernaut with the new Juggernaut BAF.

Supposedly there was a FOX show in development that was supposed to center around Nemesis, so I wonder if this ordered pilot in reference to that show, or a different one altogether?

Nemesis as in the son of Apocalypse from the AoA Nemesis? That would be cool but not very family friendly.

speaking of Nemesis, a few pages back there was talk about the Ares wave being hard to find. I honestly felt that Nemesis was THE hardest wave to find of any. The greatest day of discovery I've ever had was when I walked into a Walmart and found the entire wave sitting on pegs. That is the one and only time I ever saw anyone but Daredevil and Punisher at retail and even those two were just maybe one or two other times. But on that day, I literally shed a tear of joy.
