The plasmoids obey her mental control, traveling where she directed them, arranging themselves in various shapes, and exploding when she wished. The strength of the blasts varied in degrees of power and intensity, and can range from a multitude of colorful sparkles capable of temporarily blinding a person, to a powerful detonation capable of smashing objects and destroying property, or a precision burst inside a human brain, simulating the effects of a massive stroke. Jubilee can also absorb the energy back into her own body without harm.

While training in Generation X, Emma Frost described Jubilee as having the untapped ability to detonate matter at a subatomic level, which in theory is the equivalent of a nuclear fusion bomb. Her moral stance on taking a life was observed by Emma during the Phalanx Covenant, when Jubilee explained her fear of killing someone should her powers ever flare up again, as they did during the Acts of Vengeance storyline in Uncanny X-Men (she destroyed the Mandarin's mansion in a massive explosion, out of grief after believing that Wolverine had been killed). Emma stated that Jubilee had unlimited potential and was one of the most powerful mutants she had ever encountered. Jubilee's Age of Apocalypse alternate had minimal qualms in regards to using her powers, and made liberal use of her full ability."

I think that movie may have contributed to my eventual break-up with my then-girlfriend at the time. She didn't take it very well when I shouted "JUST SHOOT HIM ALREADY!!!" in the theatre when the Polish police were confronting Magneto.

Is it just my area or is that Endgame Hawkeye and Black widow two pack nearly impossible to find. I haven’t seen it at any of my stores. Thanks to a fellow arker is the only reason I have a set

I've seen it around here semi-regularly. The only set I've seen more is the Kraven's Last Hunt set, which is just kinda... not moving units at the stores I've seen it at. The Widow/Hawkeye set at least changes in stock on the regular.

No targets in my area have had any of the two packs save for kraven. Retail has benn sucking ass as of late. Hell failmarts here have reduced legends to only 6 pegs below 9 pegs of those stupid ass titan heroes that forever clog pegs, You can barely see the few legends ( songbird wasp and those capn marvel leftovers ) that are there. Target...ha targets a joke for legends. They have even less space ( 3-5 pegs IF youre lucky)

I need to move to your town haha. I have seen the kraven set though. It seems like that’s not a big seller. Because each of my targets(6 of them) have anywhere from 4-8 of those two packs each

Ha! Don’t get my started on Walmart man. You know my hatred for that shitty place. Im almost certain that wasp figure you speak of will be in land fills until the end of time which is kinda shame cuz I actually kinda like the fig.

[Boy Blunder]

I just want the Spidey/MJ pack to drop on shelves around here. I'm much less apprehensive about buying a two-pack if I can have it in-hand.

well I’ve actually seen that. It’s actually pretty cool. Only one in the set I want though is MJ. Which is a shame because I don’t wanna drop $40 on just one figure
Because I’ve got a lot of Tom Holland Spidey figs.

I like the set. I actually prefer the MJ head with the ponytail but will probably end up looking for a new body for it. Maybe a loose Claire Temple figure will work. Kinda wish I got a second 2 pack to try and throw together a figure of MJ in the yellow jacket.


I've only seen the Endgame 2 pack twice. And one time wasn't actually seeing it so much as seeing the empty box their shipment was in and then getting told by the employee that stocked them that a single guy grabbed 4 sets the moment they were put out.

You're right. Old skool wire skeleton covered by foam-rubber, sectioned/jointed plastic like the Lizard, or one unmoving mold and only the waist swivel for articulation?

[jmurray90720]

My Target is just full of boogers. The entire Captain Marvel wave and about 4 of the Starforce exclusive, Polaris x 2, White Tiger from the Rhino wave (still full price, they need to do something about the shared DPCI issue) and a Speed Demon (see White Tiger). GameStop is better, but not by much. If people didn’t preorder them they don’t stock them, and restocks are non existent. Retail is a mess.

I'd like to see them segment the tail articulation like the vitruvian medusa

[Captain Nash]

Any word or thought on when the SDCC is being revealed?

I just know that if it's a Hellfire Club SDCC and I can't find one even at secondary sources I'm burning all ya'lls collections down in my mind.

I think it would help if the stores in my area would put shit out when it’s hot, and re stock! Walgreens gets like half a case of each wave, one time, no restock and the Walmart close to me gets movie waves about the time the DVD hits the 5$ bin. The last wave they stocked was BP wave 2... they were already on discount on Walmart.com when we got two cases. No sign of any endgame product, no store display, just one end cap with titan repaints. And literally one week to to the day that I gave up finding red goblin for the KP leg, there he is sitting next to far from home 5” ( cus everybody was screaming for this shit scale! They feel like retro 90’s toybiz pre legends shit.) too bad I had bought he leg for 34$ off eBay.

I think the vintage X-men wave will be hard to find where I am at. The 1st vintage wave sold well enough, but there was still so many Widows and Punishers and Caps and IMs that didn't sell. None of my Walgreens, Walmarts or Targets ever got the 2nd Vintage wave... I only ever saw them at Gamestop.

Not a single store in my area sold the second vintage wave at all. The only reason I got Vision was through Pulse.

[urrutiap]

I tend to stay away from stores like Walgreens where they have really old stuff for Marvel Legends such as Walgreens still having old Fantastic Four Susan Storm or HERBIE Marvel Legends and thats all they have

[sh002]

I prefer the FFF Wendigo instead of the new Wendigo that’s coming out.

[Augustus_Cole]

is the Juggernaut that is being released in the 2-pack with Colossus the SAME as the BAF we have?? i KNOW there is an extra head and hands.. but i'm trying to figure out why I'd need this old one when I need to purchase the 2-pack for Colossus anyway..
It would be easier to get rid of him now as opposed to when the new one is out

[sh002]

Same figure but different colors and no belt plus extra accessories.

[Augustus_Cole]

ahh cool thanks..'
looks like the texture of the helmet is different as well

[AFU]

I really hope Iceman looks like a bigger version of the ToyBiz one, please...

Come up to north county. We're swimming in that Homecoming 2-pack. There's like 16 of them just between the two Vista Targets.
