@StuartGreen2019, the other figures are just the various figures I want from the X-Men and Avengers wave. But I'm not overly excited about any of them. I would have been for Siryn, and I guess she's still my most anticipated, but it sucks realizing that and also realizing I'm not overly happy with her, it's not my ideal outfit and there's no screaming head, and the face sculpt is rather dull as well. The rest, Madam Hydra, Havok, Vulcan, Blue Marvel, will all be nice additions or replacements, but again, none of them I'm wildly anticipating. That's okay, there will be more stuff and likely better years. I'm feeling like this year is the year that all the catch up from distribution/manufacturing problems and delays from covid hit. Which sucks too but literally first world problems right now.

At one point I would have loved to see about 100 or so particular brand new/alternate outfit/remade figures made as well, but you're right, with the pricing, it's definitely about being selective. I've got that list down to around 50 or 60, and will probably not even see most of those get made or get made any time soon. First world problems strike again, but dang it, there's only so many years we can keep saying, "oh they'll finish up the New Warriors/X-Force/Thunderbolts/etc in the next year or two" before you begin to think...maybe they actually won't.

I realized hasbros mo…..they’ll finish teams, but will end up making them multipack/ single bozed onoline/store/specialty shop exclusives that are impossible to find except on fucking ebay. I mean really how hard is it to just make make regular releases.

Plus with hasbros shitacular new single character only case packs the baf idea needs to go away as no one will be able to finish a goddamn baf anymore.
