No, a new pinless brown suit Wolverine with the new claws that aren't utter crap and a Fall of the Mutants Psylocke would have made the most sense.

They've still got a ways to go though. They have Gateway and the proper Storm to do as well as Madelynne.

I like the Fall of the Mutants 2 pack idea. I tend to forget about needing the lightning bolt Storm, I have the Black retro card Storm with my Outback team. I wouldn't count on Gateway outside of an Amazon multi pack or as a pack in slug figure. Same with a green jumpsuit Maddie, though you could get Lady Jaye and pop a RYV unmasked MJ or the retro card Widow head on her

If they can waste money to make a Mandarin Psylocke figure, they sure as hell can afford to make Maddie and Gateway. Shit, they've done Darwin even though no one was asking for Scary Movie 3 figures.

I am looking forward to Mystique and Destiny (especially since I missed the Walgreens exclusive Mystique), Warbird, Retro Quicksilver, Retro Carnage and Retro Prowler. I'm curious if the Spider-Verse wave will be a mix of Retro, which would include Carnage and Prowler, or its own wave. Either way, I hope a comic book based Retro Doc Ock of any kind with bendy wire tentacles is on its way. Same goes for Chameleon, Vulture, and first appearance Mary Jane.

I'm not going to lie, I'm disappointed we don't have a comic book Colossus to give the Fastball Special to Wolverine in any of his anniversary two-packs. I thought a Colossus/Wolverine two-pack of any kind would've been a lock for our favorite Canuck. I also thought Cyber would be in there somewhere too, since Wolverine was afraid of him for a while. I also do hope one of the anniversary waves is Secret Wars, so we can get brown-and-tan Wolverine that way. I also wonder what figures will go with Retro Quicksilver and Retro Professor X, assuming they're both in the same X-Men wave. Quicksilver could easily go into a Retro Avengers wave too.

I'm looking forward to the next livestream too. I'd love to know when Wave 2 of the "X-Men '97" series goes up for pre-order and which wave classic Wasp ends up in.

Has it been that long since I've seen Scary Movie 3? Was that the one where they spoofed Signs?

Lady Mandarin Psylocke is one, not being released as a single figure, and two is at the core a more popular and well-known character than Maddie or Gateway, but keep on yelling at that cloud Abe

Please let the Destyiny/Mystique 2 pack be real. Rektangular has a good track record so I'm hopeful. A new Warbird will be nice too, so long as its on one of the newer, better articulated female bodies. I managed to get the old one very cheap on eBay and its nice but its dated.

Lady Mandarin looks amazing and I might get the 2 pack just on the strength of that alone. One of the good things about Marvel Legends has been, in my opinion, the fact we would get obscure characters and costumes even if it can be frustrating sometimes. I'm not going to complain about them continuing to do that.

Edit: If we get more Deadpool movie stuff a reissue of the Negasonic figure would be nice, the last one seemed to disappear instantly and went for stupid money on ebay, at least in Australia

I'm hoping if the Mystique/Destiny 2 packs happens Mystique isn't just a complete rerelease of the previous figures with the gummy legs and limited arm articulation. A new Warbird is bound to be on the Walgreens Moonstone body, hopefully they've gotten pinless legs for it.

Id love to see a fantomex singular release. Maybe his grey outfit during his time with xforce.

Yes. All I think about every time I look at the figure is him pointing his finger out to pee.

Cool, that means absolutely nothing though. Hasbro has shown popularity does not determine how they release things.

Yeah, Mystique needs to have pinless joints and be on the new female body.

Cyber was actually in the Wolverine 5 pack from...last year? Or was it 2022? Whether that means they're more likely or less likely to release him again is a good question though.

ALso looking forward to the second X-men 97 wave even though I really only want Goblin Queen.

I don’t want to get too far over my skis with the rumored deluxe mega packs, but the ideas racing around in my head as to what they might be are all exciting. T-Bolts. The Inhuman royal family. New Mutants. The Warriors Three. The Warriors. Eternals. So many choices.

Back then i didnt read much of old Uncanny X-Men when they were in the austrailian outback but did Storm still have a mohawk or did she have full hair at the time?

It's basically the costume from the first ever ToyBiz Storm, with the light up lightning bolt on her chest. The mohawk was growing out. Art-wise it's the Jim Lee costume with the bolt on the torso and no X emblems at the shoulders.

@Veronica Mars - THAT is the next Storm figure I'd love to see Hasbro make the most. I'd prefer the long hair, but if we got it with an alternate mohawk head, that'd be fine with me.

I don't know if you guys saw, but Marvelous News is reporting we will see six Retro Secret Wars figures in December 2024. Listings for six figures were found online by JTPrime. I do hope there will be more than just six figures and that Secret Wars two-packs or multi-packs will be made too. I assume if any of the original eight characters get made, Magneto and Kang will likely get skipped due to their recent figures. I'd love an Iron Man with an alternate Jim Rhodes head to get made and a bendy wire tentacles Doc Ock figure (maybe as a Deluxe release?), among the many, MANY characters I hope get made (Captain America, Hulk, Spider-Man, Thor, Wolverine, Cyclops, Rogue, Colossus, Doctor Doom, Absorbing Man, Titania, Volcana, Lizard, the Wrecking Crew, etc., etc.) Time, and Hasbro, will tell soon enough...

That's not what i was frikking asking. I wasnt asking about her costume/outfit when she was with Wolverine and Betsy Braddock and Dazzler in Australia

I was asking about Storm's hair if she still had the mohawk or did let her hair grow out?

I do believe I mentioned that her mohawk was growing out, as can be seen in the pictures Mr. Personality

Isn't it fun helping out in a post only to have the person you've assisted go and be like that? Just a reminder: you can block Mr. Personality and other creatures that lurk here as it can make for a more pleasant experience overall.

I appreciate the idea of what the mega sets will be, and I will remain optimistic. I'm hoping to not have further disappointments like where we get the Acts of Vengeance Betsy and not Outback Steakhouse Armor Betsy, but those are minor. Mystique and Destiny has me so psyched. Hopefully they will be pin-less and released sooner than later.

But... but they did answer your question:

There was no need to become a total jerk about it.

The mohawk was growing out by the end of Fall of the Mutants.

No, man. No.

plain british gal Betsy Braddock in her stylish model type clothes when she was hanging around the X-Men. Thqts a Marvel Legends figure I want of old school Betsy Braddock/Pylocke.

None of that armored/Kwann crap

Since JTPrime found the six Retro Secret Wars figure listings, do you guys think we'll see re-releases of previous figures with new paint jobs, head sculpts and/or accessories from the original 1984 Mattel wave (Captain America, Spider-Man, Wolverine, etc.), new characters from the comic book that didn't get figures in the old Mattel waves, or a mixture of both? I'm hoping it's both. I could easily see multi-packs and boxed sets going to "Secret Wars". Maybe they can do two-packs of the main eight characters (Doctor Doom with Captain America, Doctor Octopus with Spider-Man, Kang with Iron Man, and Magneto with Wolverine). Or maybe this is how we get classic Falcon and a comic accurate Hobgoblin, since they were in the old Mattel wave despite not being in the comic event. Heck, they could even do Deluxe releases like Hulk, Doc Ock and members of the Wrecking Crew. As long as we get some long-overdue figures for it like Cyclops, Rogue, the Absorbing Man, Titania, She-Hulk, Volcana and an easier-to-find Lizard, that'd be fine with me.

I would be quite irritated if they used these "mega deluxe multipacks" for reissues of Doctor Doom, Captain America, Doctor Octopus, Spider-Man, Kang, Iron Man, Magneto, and Wolverine. That would be neither a wise nor acceptable choice on Hasbro’s part.

Any homage to the Mattel line is best left for the 3.75” retro figs…

I hope they use the opportunity to get out an updated Wrecking Crew

That's my hope as well and the only retool/redraft/reissue that I would welcome outside of Annihilus.

It would also be an opportunity to get Volcana and Titania out too

I'm down with an update Absorbing Man, as long as it's standard sized and he's wearing his purple striped pants like the Build-A-Figure.
