Did someone say something about a Dark Beast figure?

That's pretty decent! I just use the X-3 Beast as a fill in Dark Beast. I'd love to get an authentic AOA sculpt with the wild overgrown hair and all that, but I doubt this would ever happen.

We have Nemesis. Well, I have Nemesis. But a revamped release would be cool.

Wrong nemesis. This one was the guy with tussled grey hair and a gas mask like dcs sand who was part of one of the many iterations of xforce...not holocaust.

oh! Dr. Nemesis! He should be a fairly easy one to do, QUicksilver head on Fantomex body.

edit: WTH is wrong with quoting today?

What is the fate of this TRU exclusive?

Wolverine
Rogue
Cyclops
Juggernaut
Sabretooth
Psylocke
Jean Grey (though she needs to be redone because of cow eye syndrome)
Archangel, though it's been a while
Magneto (not a great one but it's fairly close)
Forge (IMO the one from the two pack from 10 years ago holds up well enough he doesn't necessarily need a redo)
Bishop
Omega Red
Shatterstar
Cable
Deadpool
Apocalypse
Stryfe

we need, as far as core X-Men and the bigger name X-villains

Colossus
Storm
Gambit
Nightcrawler
Beast
Professor X
Kitty Pryde (not really sure if this counts, did she have a "jim lee" look?)
Iceman
Banshee (because dammit that one from the first Hasbro wave should just be erased from existing.)
Jubilee
Domino
Havok
Polaris
Sunspot
Cannonball (sorry the one from the two pack does not hold up IMO)
Syrin
Boomer
Feral (blah)
Strong Guy
Wolfsbane
Rictor
Warpath


Lady Deathstrike
Pyro
Avalanche
Mister Sinister
Mystique
Exodus (he was big in the early 90's)

I'm probably missing some but that's a off the top of my head tally I'm putting in bold the ones I think we are more likely to get.

Well technically we have some of Those figures, but they are/were done by toybiz.

Well yes, of course, I thought we were just going over what Hasbro might give us. My bad. If we're talking about what we have already, including the X-Men line from Toy Biz, we are mostly set with all the core characters and a few of the secondary ones.

Why do that, when you can do the classic (and classier) version?

Believe me, I really want to know as well; it's prolly the ML set I want the most out of everything this year.

I have asked and searched and while most places simply don't know, I have twice seen a rumor (and I think it's just that), that Amazon is going to get this set. Which if true, would be pretty nice for me.

The next couple of waves i'll br cherry picking. I won't want entire waves but probably 2 or so per wave. Not even wanting the BAF that comes with DP wave 2.

Ss far as the beast figure goes, jackyl body would be good for first appearance grey furry beast. However i'd also prefer jim lee era 90s beast.

[Dr Kain]

Well Dorkside shipped out my Deadpool wave amazingly. Now I have to figure out what to do with my second Deadpool, Domino, Paladin, and the defective Deathlok if TRU won't end up taking them back.

Grey Beast? I'm talking about the Beast that appeared in the Claremont/Byrne run of X-Men. Even Jim Lee's Beast was not a hulking gorilla though. He's called Beast, not Rilla.

I’d love a legit AoA Dark Beast too!

[Weapon X]

I finally found evidence of the Infinity War wave in my area. Went to a Walgreens and found two Iron Man's. Not much but it's something! I actually quite dig the sculpt on him, just hate the ketchup color they use for the red. Otherwise I would buy him. It's also a shame that he's the one who doesn't come with a BAF piece. Figures without a BAF piece should be discounted by a few dollars quite honestly.

Hasbro hear our pleas! We shall offer up a burning of 1,000 Star Lords as a tribute to the fantastic plastic spastic that is Dark Beast!

There are a good bit of spoilers with this pack.

Is the extra Deadpool the red or X Force version?

Regular.

[En Sabah Nerd]

I wish the X-Force Deadpool had been the double-packed no-BAF part figure in the wave. Mainly because I want it and not the '90s version but then also because they did the exclusive release already so now anybody who already got that one has to get another if they want Sassy to have his head.

If they're still sealed up and new, bring them to another retail store. Im sure they'll accept them and someone should find a treat.

I recall a dark beast figure being made back in the 90s. Definitely wasn't the legends line but another with sugar man. Kind of a monster line of some sort.

If you mean blind you with it's brilliance...Yes...Yes I was.

I just wasn't a fan of the Jim Lee Era Beast. It was all about that hairstyle. Every mutant was wearing it the time it seemed. Wolverine, Beast, Feral, Wolfsbane....I'm sure there were a few more that I missed. It just seemed like a lack of creativity on the artist...probably because most of it was spent drawing Psylocke and Rogue's ridiculously sized boobs...

Casting Cave still does casts, but the store is rarely updated anymore these days. Clayorrnot Customs used to be the place to go, but Hasbro bullied him out of the casting business. Your best bet is probably eBay these days, as the casting market is still alive and kicking there, but it's mostly for headsculpts, which it sadly seems is not what you're seeking. Still, it can be a pretty good spot for seeking out fodder, though be warned, good fodder lots tend to be a bit pricey as loose parts are always a hot commodity.

Also DC Universe Classics Vigilante has the perfect forearms for a Magneto, and the Classics OMAC has good forearms AND feet for a Magneto. Dunno how easy it would be to splice all the parts together though

Still my Fav. Beast. Hand and Finger articulation is superb.
