Good thing he is not a have to have figure then if that is truky the case I will likely pass that just leaves me needing Bishop and even with the hiccups probably both Beasts.

I can't wait for bishop to arrive. My son picked out wolverine and the xmen cartoon from the library, I did not realize how good that cartoon was. My son is addicted to minecraft and built an underground lab like beast, glad he is into xmen now and not just bruce Wayne lol.

Wolverine and the X-Men is probably my favorite cartoon of all time. Even now I'm pissed they canceled it when they did. Season 2 was going to be soooo good.

For sure, Age of Apocalypse was going to be Season 2 :/

Still working on slimming down my collection and need to offload some more extras:

Black Widow - $15 shipped MOC
Dark Elf - $15 shipped MOC
Omega Red - $13 shipped MOC

A few people here can vouch for me, as well as several over on MUcollectorclub.com. All shipping is within the continental US. Payment must be via PayPal and sent as a gift. Thanks!

I cant personally confirm it....but have read from like 10 people about theirs. This waves has its issues for sure. Pitty too, as it has many wanted figures on loads of collectors lists.

As for cartoons...... EMH all day everyday for my tastes!

So I gave up on trying to get the actual Maria Hill figure and found a seller on Ebay who does custom heads..does a excellent paint job..So here is my Maria Hill I went with a more realistic look to stand next to Fury

Removing Beast's head revealed that Hasbro pretty much only have him a peg for his head to move around on, which explains why he only has neck cut swivel rom out of the box. Anyone picking up Beast needs to be ready to beef that peg up into an actual ball and dremel his head out; without that, your Beast will be constantly looking down in a strange open mouthed melancholy manner, killing any poses you try squeezing out of it.

Finally got around to lighting up my Shield Bunker.

Also all the gripes about the future of our line are completely valid. I have 2 or three MU Absorbing Men that were extremely loose, so I'm not mad at MI for that one. That was just the case with that buck in my opinion. But not having ball jointed necks!!! Come on. Plus I'm starting to hate the solid upper torso more and more. I will still pick up all properly articulated figures that were set to release under MU, but I'm still not completely sold on paying $13 a pop for less valued figures.

I agree. The setup looks good K-dub. It must be a pain in the ARSE to dust your setup..Mine drives me nuts and is noway as elaborate. I removed stuff two days ago to dust, dont remember how i had it so i got figure layin around looking sad cause i cant figure out how i fit them in the first damn place lol

UGH I know. I actually yelled "OH SH#T!!!!!!" at my TV when I saw that ending the first time.

Good show but not enough X-Men. I liked that the Super-Skrulls had their powers though. Nice little nod/tease.

Exactly! Most of my collection is made up of characters I saw in that show, plus the movies. The series ended with a solid ending though, not like W&TXM, which is a damn shame because that universe, in my opinion, was better than the movieverse.
EMH & W&TXM should be the basis for the movies, closer to the comics changing just enough to keep it interesting.

Shame we never got a toyline for EMH, or any females in the X-men line, otherwise we'd have Wasp and Emma, and years ago at that

What is dust?!?!

I know I probably should bust out a can of compressed air and clean things up, but one of the luxuries of creating "realistic" terrain is that the texture kind of hides the dust and debris pretty well. I have had this setup for a little under a year and the dust is far less noticable as when it was set up on my mantle. I think it really is just a difference of Gloss vs. Matte since everything is less shiny you don't see the dust as bad (My lazy rationale)

U got a link for this dude?

Well said my friend... Well said indeed.

The bunker looks really nice lit up!

That bunker is insane! Mad props on that setup. =)

Found Bishop at the Disney store!

I reckon he's gonna be the Wasp of this wave in terms of being difficult to find.

Bit of a landmark moment in my collection though, in 2009 I made a list of all the characters that I wanted and they have all been ticked off. Sadly additional names have been added to the list since........

I echo the comments on EMH and Wolverine and the X-Men being cut down in their prime, Avengers Assemble and Agens of Smash are just a complete load of bollocks in comparison.

Tell me everything about him; is his scarf removable?, how's the head ball joint?, does the hair block movement?, is the gear removable?

WaTX should have gotten another season. How that ended up being canned was ridiculous and pure finances related. The second season actually had a green light, but no one wanted to pay for it. (The first season was Marvel financed, and shopped around to networks, second season they wanted the channel to finance it, but the channel wanted the same deal from before. So both sides refused to pay for it even though it was renewed.)

EMH on the other hand was out the door from the get go when Avengers Assemble was ready. EMH had a lot of problems that many tend to ignore.

Like how Ms. Marvel could take a direct punch from hulk without a scratch, but a small piece of debris while flying a ship? That knocks her out. The list can go on, but EMH was kind of back and forth about how it treated its female characters. Most not so well at all. To the point of breaking even toon logic as mentioned above.

He is alot bigger than your average MU figures :(

I think the head is probably the best thing about him, it's a nice sculpt and perfectly posable, the hair is the same as most characters with long hair.

These new figures seem to be lacking in their body sculpting, there's less definition than the older figures - I think of Bishop as being a muscley character and he's really quite smooth. The scarf and bands going around his arms are one piece, and yes, removable. If I had a good Bishop custom I'd be tempted to stick the head from this one on it.

But damn it, I'm glad just to get the character at this stage!

Sure it had its flaws but it had some great stories, introduced me to lots of characters I didn't know, had some cool cameos and made me like and care about every single first season Avenger.

I must say, I am in love with Janet Van Dyne because of this series. Reading Secret Invasion caused me physical pain to finish.

I thought she acted too much like an annoying little sister in EMH.
