I took an old Secret Wars figure and stood it on my Avengers shelf and the two work pretty well together. So by proxy, these would work among our modern figures as well. Especially as the simpler design of the figures would echo the simpler Golden Age design sensibility.

Wave 1 is arriving to backers soon (of which I'm one), so I'll be sure to post some comparison pics when I get them. After that, they'll be available on their website. They're also planning a second wave in late Q1 2016.

Wave 1 and 1.5...

Wave 2 (late Q1 Kickstarter planned)...

The picture they put up of these figures in the old 1995 X-Men Headquarters playset (which made me hunt one down for myself)...

I've been REALLY excited to finally have these in hand for awhile now. We're so close that I can't wait!!

Is that a tmnt krang hoverboard?
