Simple swap, much cooler looking figure:
Nice! I did that swap myself- swap the hands too for more of a dramatic "kill humanity" look.


Hmmmm...y'know, were I to do some crossover thing, Ultron woud make an amazing Yellow Lantern! maybe even a Red Lantern!

Damn... I really want Molecule Man and Titania...
Well, so do I but consider some of the production issues with those-
Accurate Molecule Man and Volcana would be unique molds with no reuse ability- and frankly, I was shocked beyond belief they had the balls to run a line of figs based on a twenty five year old miniseries with ZERO appeal to non- collectors of a certain age range.
Hell, that line is why I started getting MU- having the SW characters has been a dream of mine since I was a small kid, when I bought those issues off the rack at Waldenboooks as they came out!
After all, I have the original SW figs, loose but mint- from waaay back then!

I mean in this new line...we got 80's Wasp, Absorbing Man and classic Doom in one pack! The Wrecking Crew!
Enchantress! They went with an Enchantress- an obscure female fig! A Spider Woman not on the Avengers! 80's Storm with mohawk!
Nightcrawler, a unique fig unto himself.

We'll get Molecule Man eventually, Titiana will get made now that there's a female body big enough for her and Volcana...well, maybe we can custom one up somehow.


Overall, I'd say the Secret wars line was a crazy hit for us collectors, though it left us wanting more!
