Thanks, I am curious, what figures are the ones people really want from the boxset. Every year there seems to be a one/couple of figures people really want and sell off the rest.

I am assuming it's Malachite.....but could be wrong.

For me, I want Bor and maybe Malekith, but I'm not willing to buy the set just for those two.

i believe odinson, jane foster Thoris, and ulik are the ones everyone wants. the rest could be easily sold off. they are also currently being sold on ebay for much cheaper then the ones i listed above.

Yes a DIFFERENT odinson will be available and jane foster as well, but ulike might not be til later on.

Perhaps. My interpretation remains that it was a "hot crowd" on a Saturday night at SDCC, and they were ready to pop at the reveal of that awesome third figure for the wave, but it never came. And I say that because it's also how I felt watching the stream Live, but obviously I don't have polling or interviews to back up my impression and I can't say for sure that's what everyone was thinking (it's not like this was the State of the Union address and CNN was there conducting on-site surveys). I just think the pins were set up here but Hasbro threw a gutter ball. It's ok, though, stuff like Lizard and Apocalypse picked up the spare.

But it wasn't just that, I don't think stuff like the Deadpool Monopoly set went over with the crowd, either. And that might be our fault for expecting nothing but "figures, figures, figures!", but I also think Hasbro used that stuff to fill out time on the panel because they really didn't have much to show for Marvel Legends, and most of the new reveals already showed up in the cases over the weekend. I really think if they worked on not tipping their hand so much, people might have looked at this panel a lot more favorably.

For what it's worth, I'm in a marvel legends fb group and there were comments made by people who attended comic-con stating that the asgard set was plentiful there and that even on sunday there were a bunch available to the point where you could just walk up to the booth and buy one, no wait. In light of this, I suspect HTS will have a decent amount available on their site.

Ill be getting deadopoloy.

Question. I'm looking for a Bi-Beast to add to my Hulk display. I'm thinking of biting the bullet and getting the 6 inch video game one from the old Incredible Hulk movie line, but does anyone know what the scale is like on him?

If he also comes with a can of spam we know the answer. ;)

That classic 1st app Namor will be coming with a clean cut alternate head which almost looks like the old wave 2 TB Namor head sculpt! That will be the head sculpt on my classic Namor when I get it. Bearded version will go on ebay. I really hope Habsro doesn't drop the ball on the Thing and make him a hulk sized giant. I am looking forward to having him & Namor duke it out a few times. Hasbro needs to keep the Thing at the same exact scale they did the 2 pack/Ronan BAF Thing, just better sculpting on the rock texture, , George Perez Thing head sculpt & paint the rocks the correct Orange color. Give him alternate open/fist hands, not some cheese eating grin or smile. Or better yet, a mean looking Thing head and an alternate , yelling it's "clobbering time" Thing head.

I am super stoked at the amount of classic 70s/80s versions that Hasbro made! I'll be getting all of the vintage wave and probably selling off the recent versions that came out. That 80s Deathlok is a thing of beauty! The old TB version is so laughable by comparison. Looked like the pre 98lb weakling & now he's a buffed up Charles Atlas. Seeing the re-dos/re-releases of those VHTF SDCC exclusives of Black Bolt/Medusa/Luke Cage, hence with slight differences such as new head sculpt, paints, ect, gives me hope that they will re-release Gladiator in some future wave as that is a very expensive figure to get on ebay. And he is one of my all time top 15 favorite characters ever in the MU.

And I missed out on those VHTF Hydra grunt soldiers, so will be buying up a few of these Army building 2 packs. I really hope the Hydra 2 packs sell well so we can get AIM/HAND/SHIELD/Skrulls/Kree/Hellfire club guards 2 packs in the near future.

Well his dad was a white American. His mother was a blue skinned Atlantean.

Is melting it with a heat gun a valid option?

Should also keep in mind Name's first appearance was in 1939, and racial diversity was not really a factor then

YES! Heh.

Damn, they could have at least gave us some more pics of that Apocalypse.

wheres that image from?

Raiders of the lost Ark.

I'm still trying to find the image of the figure that isn't just taken from a photo at the panel.

LOL Yeah, I know Namor's story, I'm a big fan of the character. I wrote that mostly in jest (hence the ;)), but I'll admit that part of me was 'baiting' to see if a certain someone would feel the need to affirm the racial identity of a make-believe character. Especially following all that talk about, and I'm paraphrasing, "the race of a character shouldn't matter."

You weren't the fish I expected to hook, but you win the "no-prize" nonetheless :p

That'd do the trick...no love lost there I see...

EDIT:
@AFU

No need for thanks, my man. Sometimes when you're not actively a part of a conversation/debate, you can see what's happening with a little more objectivity. The voiced opinions on the BP wave were getting twisted a little and I chimed in...

The main reason I want the Box set is indeed Malkeith (or however you spell his name....weird I want a set for a figure I can't even spell their name lol)

I do want Odinson and Jane Foster Thor and I think the SDCC set is better than the ones that will come in the wave, but if I were to miss the set, at least I know that I can get those in the wave.

Bor would be nice to have but he's not a huge draw for me.

I have no interest in Ulik. I mean, if I get the set I will certainly keep him, but he's not a draw for me at all.

lol There's a wink and a "lol" at the end. Clear signs, according to the rules of the interwebs, that I'm not to be taken seriously. Don't be mad at me, you "deplorable" scamp! Who's baiting who? ;)

If you don't care for the cut of my jib, it's best not to read what I post...

I didn't read any comment in which someone said Hasbro didn't understand diversity, so your bringing it up represents a non-sequitur. Feel however you want to feel, it's your prerogative...

Is there a way to make spoiler tags on a post?

Thanks Blue Marvel.

SPOILERS

Anyway, relevant to the discussion (without opening that can of worms), the MCU panel at SDCC showed off some Black Panther footage, and apparently at one point Killmonger dons a suit that is described as looking similar to T'Challa's, but with gold coloring and a mask that resembles a jaguar or leopard.

Given that two of the names on the leaked roster for this wave (Which has so far proven to be somewhat accurate) were "Leopard" and "Siberian Tiger," as well as the way movie figures often have slug names or placeholder titles in store registries to avoid spoilers (like the recent Thor wave), I'm guessing one of those two is actually Killmonger.

I wish they'd give us actual spoiler tags. we appreciate the effort, it's the best we can do here! :)

Now I shall have to stab my eyes out b/c spoilers :p

And yeah if one of the two is Killmonger that will help strengthen this wave quite a bit.

I wonder if Klaw/Shuri will be in the wave or be a two pack?

What I always do is put "spoilers" in all caps and bold around the spoilers which I still color silver to make them harder to read. I hope that book-ending the spoilers with big chunky words makes it easier for people to skip past that part if they wish to avoid any spoilers.

For example, SPOILERS Peter Parker is Spider-Man. SPOILERS END For anyone that didn't read it I didn't actually post a spoiler unless you don't know who Spider-Man is :p

That's a good idea, I will try to remember that thank you!
