Add me to the list. I have heard nothing from Hasbo about my Sentinel. I ordered it about a week before it closed.

Also,

Maggot?

Hasbro is making Maggot before Phoenix Rachel Grey, Longshot, Wolfsbane, Feral, Armor Psylocke, Magma, Cypher, Shirtless Colossus, Armor, Corsair, Angel, Deathbird, a Brood, Destiny, Avalanche, X-cutioner, Cameron Hodge, Fitzroy, or Pretty Boy?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?


Are there more than two people who have Maggot on a wishlist?

[hasbroherofan]

As someone who actually likes Siryn, Darwin (First Class's treatment of him was a crime) and Maggott, I'm just sitting back and enjoying all the in-fighting their potential inclusion seems to be causing on sites.

[Mimicboy]

I am on the side of liking Siryn, Darwin and Maggots inclusion. Not knowing the BAF yet, I am only thinking of getting Siryn but I would at least consider Darwin and/or Maggot. I could deal with finally owning a Wolverine or Sabertooth after all this time but I don't really need another Havok. I don't really care for Vulcan at all. He might make a decent base for an Exiles Mimic custom though. Overall I feel the wave is pretty typical Hasbro. Couple of new characters, couple of new versions of already done characters, and a couple anchor characters. I want to be surprised that we are getting Siryn before a Banshee but I'm really not.

My hope is that by making Bastion and now potentially Maggot it means Hasbro has more from that era in their plans. Marrow is a big want for me. Purple costume Storm too. Fatale would be cool. Also getting started on Generation X would be nice.

Well I'm like one of the only two people who want Sleepwalker, so I get it, but at the same time, I don't get it. I mean, we've gotten freaking Shriek, Doppleganger, and a few lowkey symbiotes over Sleepwalker. Hell, Death's Head II over Sleepwalker. WTF?

They can't all be A-List characters, they have to include a couple D-Listers. Here's hoping the BaF isn't someone important

Death's Head II before Death's Head was already a crime.

I prefer Minion over the original look. Death's Head II was the more successful title when brought across the pond from Marvel UK; it may have been their most successful offering. I feel like some of the pearl clutching over what, to me, was the more logical (and modern) choice for the fig is rooted in an "in the know" posturing some appear to be taking. It's almost as if whichever Death's Head look you fancy functions as some sort of litmus test for how much you "really" know about the character. That said, these sorts of stances abound and epitomize comic geek culture. Ultimately, I'd be ok with adding an additional Death's Head to my collection. Maybe buying it would encourage Hasbro to deliver The Fury.

[Archangel]

Give us Death’s Head, then a Death’s head 1&2 double pack with slight repainting and an additional accessory 6 months later.

lol

Not for me. I don't care for the first version at all, but the second version was so badass because it was like someone at Marvel decided to rip off the design of the Predator and gave him the abilities of a Terminator. I owned Death's Head II's first few issues where he absolutely destroyed the original DH. The only connection I had to DH1 at all was a Marvel card and the first issue to DHII.

I imagine the Maggot fanbase can fill a small kiddie pool set that you buy at Walmart. So far, only figs I'm interested in this wave depends on which versions of Havok/Sabertooth we're getting. If not their classic 1 st app, I won't be getting this wave at all. If a good Blob is the BAF, I'll just get him.

Honestly, I think the fact that the head of Death's Head II was a blatant rip of the Predator (techy tentacle locs and all) was the reason some people didn't like Minion iirrc. That combined with the aping of the T-1000 morphing tech for his arm seems to have also annoyed people as being lazy. Meh, IMO Terminator aped a lot of its ideas from comics to begin with.

Time to obsessively check my email; read that some people have gotten notice from Dorkside their AoA wave 2 has shipped.

Ooooh, this is exciting to hear! I ordered a loose Legion and a loose Shadowcat from them. Idk how long loose orders take them to fill but I am more than ready for something to start showing up! I understand shipping around the world is extra difficult right now so I am excited to hear some product as finally making its way out.

I think typically it's been filled as sets then cases (unless I've confused the two, the 8 figures first and then the seven figures), then singles and then loose figures. But of course there's some taking into account when it was placed and if there's other orders that it's being combined or not combined with.

I ordered mine pretty much immediately when it went up, so yeah this is exciting news. My main concern was if it was going to be delayed a bit due to the shipping kerfluffle - like end of year or even next year , but if some people are already getting notices that sounds like that's not the case. So big yay for that!

lol Amazon just pushed mine back to Nov 3rd and I hope it stays that way as I'm not ready for the AoA wave yet.

Goddamnit.

[Spyne98]

Walmart?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Dr Kain]

Wait, what? Well shit, I was about to say how I am now going to buy Dormammu, but if he's a Walmart exclusive, I should hold off until AFTER I get him, this way if I don't see him, I will continue to not get Dormammu.

[Nimrod]

We just need Hasbro to redo classic Valkrie in scale & hopefully upgrade Surfer on a larger buck & we would have the classic 70s-80s Defenders team of Dr Strange, Namor, Surfer, Hulk, Nighthawk & Valkrie.

Never saw any of the Cap exclusives... not once... not even Venom cap that nobody really wanted. This is pretty enraging.

I saw the Caps, but only once each (well, at least the annivesary Cap and the hammer Cap). I had to go to another state to get Thanos. BW finally showed up like 5 months after everyone else got her and someone else had picked one up for me.

Why does Hasbro insist on making classic versions of characters exclusives? Save the exclusives for variants.
