Bring on the full X-Men and X-Force Teams! Avengers and Full Cast Spider-Man and Friends.

The last part of my FanBoy rant needs to tap the Weapons and Gear shortage. Every one of these figure should have one of those energy blast accessory's if the character has the ability to produce one.

I would rather have web gear and not painted on detail. A good balance is nice to have with the 3 3/4 scale.

Accessory's..........Weapons.....And more of the same..........

End FanBoy Transmission.

100% agree with you there.

I noticed that too. I would much prefer a balance, however. If every wave came with half classic and half new wave, that would be great.

As far as the later waves go, I think the must buys for me are anything to do with X-men and Spiderman. I'll probably get Captain America. Would have loved a Punisher, but the two versions Hasbro produced are just too ugly to justify, IMO. Maybe I'll get the second version and get new weapons for him.

I am particularly looking forward to the female characters. Judging from Ms. Marvel, it looks like the molds for the female characters are gonna be great. I always felt the GI Joe molds for the women in the Modern line were really ugly and a sort of strange, old-lady postured look. Where as Ms. Marvel's mold looks like it should: feminine and "comic acurate". Can't wait for Rogue to come out. Hope they go with the Jim Lee look.

I also love the Hulk figure. Gotta go with classic green on that one. It's great that he's bigger in size than the others.

Bottom line: I haven't been this excited about a line of toys since I saw the first images of the Joe 25th line.
