COOL TOY REVIEW

It's funny, some of the questions have more of an answer than some of the answers themselves.

A few cool tidbits:

- AIM figure pretty much confirmed.
- Final Secret Wars wave to be revealed at Toy Fair (with "a little surprise"), so it looks like they're going to lay off that line and give the first wave of series 2 and Gigantic Battles some time to shine.
- Handful of Heroes will continue into 2010.
- Super Hero Squad Reptil in Spring 2010.
- Working with HTS.com to sell generic figure stands.
- Still no plans to continue Wolverine and the X-Men. (Which sucks, by the way. I wanted more.)
- Luke Cage was a Fan's Choice Runner Up.

Hmm interesting, no more 'troop' builder 3 packs as yet. But that doesn't mean no others.

Aim soldiers will be neat. And here's that mutant comment again... Wave 3+ better be pretty mutant heavy. I hope the titanic proportions is a reference to either titanium man, or marvel cosmic like Nova Prime, DarkHawk, and the rest of reign of kings. We're due for some marvel cosmic eventually.

Wow this is very exciting. Got a lot more insight in this series then October

Little surprise for SW? Could it be a small version of Wasp?

From what I can gather, and correct me if I'm wrong.

In December, we are getting SW wave 3
January maybe...MU Series 2 wave 2?

Then by February we get Toy fair and announcement of the final 2 Fan's choice poll (been a freaking year....)

So then by March we get Spiderman Origins and probably another wave of MU and IM2 toys as well.

Is that about accurate?

Roughly. Cept now we know Luke Cage was one of those 2.

That would be a great idea, but I would want her as a full figure, too.

Heh how pissed/excited would everybody be if the two pack consisted of one full size wasp and one smaller version?

I wonder if the surprise is a beyonder figure. Somehow that seems like something they would keep up their sleeves. But I don't remember if he ever took an actual human form in the first mini.

Pissed. Very pissed. ;)

This joker?

I don't believe he took human form, I think he did in the second one. But it could be possible that maybe they are planning on a 2 pack of SW2 and this is the way of bridging the gap. That would cover some of the cosmic characters even. Just another wild theory though

It would be cool to have one normal size and about 4 miniature, but all different costumes.

Well so far the only thing we can completely say we know for fact...

Susan Storm won't be in SW, otherwise they'd have to make the first Pregnant super hero figure ever! Though I'd call that a massive surprise personally if they did. xD

It would certainly break that Ms. Marvel torso mold, though. ;)

Well they did make a pregnant Padmé for Star Wars. :D

Here is my prediction....I'm either calling Wasp or Lizard.

My reason for this is because, again the "small hint" meaning wasp. And in the SW arch there was a direct interaction between Wasp and Lizard. Hasbro also said they were going to release a lizard figure.

Maybe it will be Lizard with a tiny Wasp accessory. Of course, accessories in the SW packs would be a huge surprise.
