Thats Awesome. I too am missing Emma Frost Puck Series. I have the older one. Next week I will hunt down an Emma and Cannonball and will have everything you have pictured minus Onslaught.

Thanks bro! Yeah, that's awesome. I'm waiting for the Emma that comes with Puck BAF. I thought she was the most decent looking one from the others. The select one looks nice too but I have a feeling she's very tall.

SymbiSpidey · 07-31-2016, 06:42 PM

Man, that Psylocke looks great.

Hasbro could probably make it just like that for about 5 cents, and I'd be all over it.

Anybody have a Marvel Select Colossus to compare with the BAF Juggernaut. Want to see how they scale up together.

I have no interest in Ashley Barton at all. I will keep her for now because I won't make anything by selling her off and I expect her to be the dud of the wave.

The Ultimate Spideys though are incredible. Not only does he make a great first year Peter, but he can also act as an excellent crossover with the DC Icons line.

So slightly unrelated to the toys specifically, I finally watched Volume 4 of X-Men today and wow these episodes have started to decline in quality real quick. It feels like everything that has come after the Asteroid M two parter took a major downgrade in every category. Sadly, this also includes Beyond Good and Evil, which wasn't as great as I remember it being. I still enjoyed it a lot, but it is no longer my favorite multi-parter of the series. I also don't like how they just randomly changed Magneto's voice in this and in the episode with Quicksilver and Witch. The new guy sounds terrible.

The Morlock Xmas episode was atrocious while the one with Wolverine in Japan felt mightily rushed. The one with Cyclops looking for his old teacher wasn't bad though. Fortunately, the majority of the episodes on the first disc to Volume 5 were better again, with "Bloodlines" being the best of them. I forgot Warlock had made an appearance in this show, and was that Phallanx two parter based on a comic story? I can't remember, but I'm pretty sure I read it shortly after X-Cutioner's Song. Or maybe I'm on crack. That was a pretty good one and it was nice to have the real voice of Magneto back. Although, it made no sense as to why he was suddenly depressed about Asteroid M despite randomly helping Apocalypse for no reason and having his children reject him. Not to mention Quicksilver goes up and hugs him at the end even though there was nothing to suggest they made up.

Anyway, only 8 episodes to go and I can't wait to watch the Mr Sinister origin story again. I just hope that one lives up to the memory I have of it compared to Beyond Good and Evil.

Messing around with the Prisma app. It's kinda addicting.

She's a Mockingbird head with an X-3 Jean Grey hairpiece. Mockingbird has a great face-sculpt, shame it's hidden behind those funky glasses.

I really want DST to make an Apocalypse because I know Hasbro would do it as a BAF if they did and I wouldn't want most of the wave it would take. Hell I'm still hoping deep down that DST will also do an Onslaught because I wanted none of that Cap wave but dammit I want the Onslaught itself (proper head version).

Lol...ok, I guess. Well, I wont blame my OCD for this one, but, I can NOT stand over-sized figures. However, I just saw that you have a much smaller Legends series VII version of him. I didn't know that, so, that's one figure I will definetly get!

3233rafael · 08-01-2016, 04:10 AM

To my friends in the UK, Kentucky, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee...your stuff ships out today! It's Christmas in July (or August 1st, lol...close enough)!

Yea, some of them seemed just like filler episodes... some of them i had to watch more than once because literally fell asleep on a few, they just didn't spark my interest enough. Im now out of animated shows to watch been trying the Tick but just cant get into it as much as i wanted to...

I totally agree. I actually like the look of the Toy Biz Apocalypse better than the B-A-F, but it still goes for more than I want to spend on Evilbay and I always found Toy Biz paints to be sub par. I wish Marvel Select would do one similar to their Hulkbuster or Juggernaut in size. Unfortunately, the last X-themed character they tried to make was the Days of Future Past Movie Mystique and that figure never saw release.

This! A Marvel Select Apocalypse or Onslaught would be steller.

The recent BAF Onslaught looks great but his size kills it for me as an ML. I think if I ever get him all put together, I'll display him with my MU figures since IMHO he fits in scale better with them. For ML scale Onslaught should be at least 10" tall.

Apocalypse is a character I've been wanting for time and I was sorely disappointed he wasn't at least announced at SDCC from Hasbro. I love the TB BAF figure but too big and mainly too expensive to obtain atm and the other ML Apocalypse never really grew on me. A new BAF or MS Apocalypse is looooong overdue.
