The MCU deluxe figure for black widow is not that good... Remember that juggernaut wave deadpool, this is what we got £20 - £25 , this isnt even pre-disney.

The thing that sickens me , is you could have widows hooks , hands, and the taser vfx pieces in a single package (like deadpool is).
The Stand is okay but will take but alot of room... Hasbro seems to force you to use the stand as one vfx piece has a peg underneath it... Get rid of the peg so you save money on plasic and collectors can place it whereever they want.

The explosions look coool but not really suited or make sense with black widow. I guess lack of guns and knives is kind of a let down. Hell have the explosions with her holding a rocket launcher, that makes more sense.

^ That was from 2016 right? Damn... it feels like a lifetime ago... like, holy crap. But things are probably cost more to make now... or something.

What about their task master figure ? he comes with a lot without the BAF piece and is at the £20-£25 mark

Not near as much as pool did........plus it looks like a snowboarder and paintballer combined gear. He definitely shoulda come with a baf piece since he looks like a hotmess of dookie.

Good thing I'm not planning on using the explosions for Black Widow. I've got Toku figures and other Marvel figures those explosions can go with.

In fact, I'll be buying the set for the explosions and figure stand, not for Widow. Widow will make a nice figure to use in the background as part of a crowd like the Gotham figures I had bought for their display pieces were.

you kidding? Combine her with the Deadpool toy’s taco... tons of explosions, and print a background of a Taco Bell. Stand her next to the Stan Lee commemorative figure with a voice balloon saying ‘Nuf said, true believers!

Finally getting around to picking-up a few things I've missed out on, and then there's another Widow because I just can't help myself.

For those not interested in the MCU, she'd make a pretty nice base for a Comic Sharon Carter kitbash. It's definitely about time to retire Hasbro's original release, if you haven't done so already.

I'm pretty sure Hasbro already made a Sharon Carter with roughly this same body in the Red Onslaught wave, it was a retooling of the Maria Hill body, which itself was a retool of TWS Black Widow body haha

Oh yeah, that's the one I meant when talking about needing the update. Those body sculpts were pretty awkward at release and even more so now compared to the more recent releases.

The Maria/Sharon release is awkward as the left fist looks more like some giant blob rather than a hand. I don't get why they didn't just make both hands gripping.

Recieved Loki and Rock Python as birthday gifts this evening, which means I completed Professor Hulk. He's available to anyone who wants to PM me a good offer, otherwise he's going up on ebay sometime next week.

What do you think of Loki. I'm still on the fence about picking him up

If ya need him to finish hulk i would grab it but its kind of a bit of a let down. I have gladiator hulk wave loki as my default loki.

So ready for the MCU Black Widow movie, I couldn't stop myself from kitbashing this comic Yelena Belova.

You know, I completely forgot I bought Loki. lol

I picked him up last summer and never opened him because I wanted to make sure 80th Thor wasn't going to be a titan compared to him and forgot I had him. Meanwhile, I still need to pick up 80th THor...

No luck on any more Demogoblin wave dudes. One of the Targets I went to didn't have a single Spidey figure, even Beetle and Speed Demon were gone. The Walgreens down the street only had Doom, Reed, and Sue, with a lot of Beetles and Speed Demons. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

That is fantastic! Recipe?

Thanks! Emma's head, Pepper Pott's lower torso, and the rest is just Vintage Widow.

He's... eh. I like him well enough, especially since he goes pretty all right with 80th Thor and the other classic Asgardians. On his own, though, he's underwhelming.

Nice sword, though.

Agreed. Plus, the sh*t-eating grin is kinda dorky looking. I'd have much rather they gave him a menacing scowl.

A menacing scowl, shoulder shawl and some actual sculpted scalemail would've made him a must-have!

The results are in for the Fwoosh poll. Interesting stuff. With what’s confirmed/ rumored to be coming, I don’t see many of these making it out this year, although I am really hoping Hasbro proves me wrong. Anyway: Official Fwoosh 2019 Top Ten Poll Results |

The real take-away is, they could knock most of the list with a single wave. Nimrod BAF:

- Storm (70s)
- Banshee (70s)
- Shadowcat
- Phoenix (Rachel Grey)
- Longshot
- Toad
- Avalanche

Wow, that would be swept up in a single wave and hey, three of those are ones I had in my list.

LOoking at the results, I'm the only one who wants the Enforcers though. Sad.

Nice, thanks for posting!!

Only 2 of my votes made the top 10, but regardless it's a pretty good list. Hopefully we'll see a bunch of these crossed off by next year!

The Enforcers would be awesome, but how? Boxset maybe, with a 60s Romita or Ditko styled Spidey?
