He's already Marvel's answer to Bats...they just don't know it yet, bruh. ;)

Nah but it's getting embarrassing reading some of the posts whining about no Black Panther MCU stuff.

Especially when people have resorted to saying it's racist lmao!

I understand man.

When your favorite stuff is getting screwed over in your eyes, it sucks.

I feel the same way about X-Men movie related stuff. Logan was one of the best films of the year and didn't get jack. Same thing with X-Men Days of Future Past.

Now X-Men Apocalypse, I'll admit wasn't very good but damn... would have killed for some figures lol.

I know we got X-Men Comic figures but I'm just meaning the movie stuff.

you hit the nail right on the head brotha ! these are TOYS for crying out loud..... these seems similar to what i recall reading years ago online about the first transformer movie. apparently it was racist because they killed i want to say "jazz" and he was somehow supposedly a black transformer. however there was a uproar about that too.... idk

can't we all just get along and talk about legends here ? granted there are a handful of members here im really not so fond of, however most of us try to just be cordial for the most part and keep talking about the hobby.

...just want to point out that the only people mentioning 'racial conspiracy' are the very people assuring the mythical-amassing-throng of BP wave detractors (sarcasm - I can't seem to find that massive throng) that there's no racial conspiracy.

Many people were underwhelmed by the reveals, as a whole. A number of people expressed being underwhelmed on this very thread. I even discussed with an arker in PM being underwhelmed after he shared that he was underwhelmed. So when a few of those underwhelmed individuals complain about the BP wave also underwhelming them, what's the big deal?

Some people thought the Dr Strange wave sucked (too many Stranges) - I liked it. Some people thought the Giantman/Antman wave sucked (Nick Fury, Red Guardian, and cooler than expected Nuke?) - go figure, I liked it. From all that I've seen, namely Black Bolt and Namor, I'm also going to like this BP wave, despite some thinking it sucked, based solely on the virtue that those two characters make it suck less than most of the other stuff shown at the con (IMO).

I caution people to avoid 'projecting' what they think others are upset with before exploring what those other people are actually upset with. For those unaware of the psychological definition of projection; look it up, learning shit is cool contrary to popular beliefs. For those that are lazy and would rather be told; the phenomenon is essentially a defense mechanism in which someone projects their own beliefs/ideas/traits onto someone else, when in reality, this is a fallacy.

FYI: my personal 'underwhelmed opinion' following the con, outside of no Surfer (or Blue Marvel WTF?), was due to the figs looking a bit cheap on second glance. It was akin to sobering up and seeing that lady you were pushin' up on, in better light and sans beer goggles...I mean, really, I'd thrown back a couple last night, but that defenders set is trash!

And just like that...there is already a listing for a Walgreens Exclusive Thing taken from their inventory ordering list. He might be closer than we think.

I still have all of my old Toybiz X-Men movie figures, lol. I was hoping something would get worked out marketing wise so we could get new X-Men movie figures. They've updated the costumes well enough to where they would look so cool in Legends form.

Also I showed that Defenders box set to my wife last night, she totally said exactly what you said. At first I wanted to defend the set, but looking at it again, Hasbro really phoned it in here to make a cheap figure set in a fancy box for Amazon.

I've never opened my Thunderbolts Comic Con box and I've always wanted to replace that 70's Luke Cage with the new version.

Yes. Wish I was able to go back and tell my younger self what 2008-2019 would be in terms of my favorite heroes. I don't give a crap if it's DC or Marvel, I'm having the time of my life.

So Nice! What's wrong with the new ML Iceman though? I pretty much am only buying early 90's versions of ML X-men myself. Also gonna pick up a Select Colossus as well and just pose him so that he appears shorter. Oh... and Archangel seems to be missing from the shot too.
