A White Queen/Kitty Pryde two pack would be great, I believe they debuted in the same issue.

Excalibur Shadowcat for sure.

I'd like an entire set of the 05 that actually use teen sized bodies, and Kitty could be an alternate head for Jean.

A Joss Whedon Astonishing X Men boxset would be great too. Its one of the only Wolverines they have left to update, Beast and Emma need one too, Cyclops is way too expensive now and Colossus is Colossus.

Thats all the Kittys I need.

I'd dig an Excalibur Kitty too. I'm debating making one, but I feel like once I start, Hasbro will announce one.

See, this is why you don't let yourself sleep on the fun characters. Because in times like these, you realize just how much it means to have the fun ones!

Harbinger · 03-26-2020, 08:58 AM

She's a pretty nice figure, though the tail takes a little getting used to when it comes to balancing her.

Mine does have a bit of a loose knee joint, but I can tighten that up with no problem.

Bo Ttef · 03-26-2020, 10:05 AM

I gave her Cuckoo fists instead of those open palms and really like her much better for it. I would have taken a couple extra hands- gripping (for the scooter handlebars)and fists (for kicking Thanos' ass)- instead of the two sitting squirrels.

Yeah, if she could REACH the handlebars while sitting.

Cuckoos! They have a set of fists and open hands. SquirrelGirl is the same "small female" size as Emma's clones so it was just a straight swap.

Shit! I have FOUR Cuckoos, so I'm rolling in lady fists! Thanks for the info.

BTW, if you're looking for a gripping hand to swap for the bike handlebar, both Dazzler and Typhoid Mary have one (right hand).

Dolemite · 03-26-2020, 12:03 PM

The Walmart Black Widow is beautiful. Easily the best female head/hair sculpt that Hasbro's ever done, IMO. Plus, the joints all feel different on the new Widows...they move firmly yet smoothly, without really all the "clicking" that Marvel Legends joints usually have. The shoulders, elbows (greater then 90 degree bend), and mid-torso joint have an especially wide range of articulation and smooth movement. Really well-done figure, and the paint apps are super clean!

Woah! Tramp stamp!

The Target Black Widow also has the improved articulation scheme, but honestly I don't care for the white costume design for her. But remove the bracelets and belt, add a sword and...instant Colleen Wing figure!

Since Colleen is usually depicted with red-ish hair (despite being Japanese) and the way Widow's eyes are done on this figure, I think it works really well as Colleen (and is a lot cheaper than the SDCC Netflix figure). I'm digging it.

LOL...you're not the first person to say something like that about my beverage of choice.

In reality that's not pee, but plain water with a honey lemon chamomile flavored zero-calorie drink mix in it. Delicious, but the color is unfortunate, I must admit.

Dolemite · 03-26-2020, 02:32 PM

Squirrel Girl get!

Found her at Target just now. Used my 25% Off One Toy Cartwheel coupon, plus an extra 5% off for using the Target debit card, for a total of $30 after tax. Paint is perfect, too.

sh002 · 03-26-2020, 02:38 PM

Ordered another Marvel Legends Stan Lee for $0.24 shipped. I’ll use the body to make an updated 6” scale Michael Knight to go with my 6” scale KITT or a Scott Summers in civilian clothes.
