I've got no problem with modern costumes/characters. It's just that with the nature of comic books these days, so many of them are discarded before they leave any real impact so I'm left with a figure that I really don't know what to do with since I have no real connection to it and it doesn't really fit into any of the teams I'm trying to build up.

That's the beef I had with the recent Magneto. It's a decent look, but I try to put it next to any of the X-Men characters I already have and it doesn't even look right.

It's probably not popular, but my general stance on this is that if a costume's been done already, I prefer to see a different look done before revisiting that well. That's why I'm one of the 8 people who was fine with the Apocalypse wave Magneto, as we've already gotten two classic Magnetos in the line. I felt the same way about the reveal of Hercules at SDCC; I can see why some folks are upset about it being his modern Avengers costume, but I would've been disappointed if they'd just redone his classic outfit when they've already done it before.
