Right now I'm kind of hoping they decide to do a better variant of this costume for the mainline. No way in hell I'm paying 65 for this figure. The digital subscription isn't that important to me, especially considering thanks to the Marvel writing, I'm down to only buying a few titles a month now from them.

I hope hasbro makes a version that's more towards the X-Force with Warpath, wolfsbane and co. He had a lighter blue face in those issues instead of this blue. The more I look at this figure, the more the blue contrast to the black and silver suit just offsets it too much, ditto those pure silver hands all around he looks 'off'. Plus the lack of alternate wing styles, hopefully one with the short wings, or both wing sets will be released later. Probably a long shot, but I'll hold out for that, or just get a custom done instead.

So yeah, I'm definitely passing on this. The figure just doesn't feel right. Add in the cost, and my not being enthused about how marvel writes outside of a few select titles, and I just don't see the point in wasting the money to get this guy, because the subscription isn't enough of a draw for me at all. Not at that price at least.

Probably a shot in the dark, but maybe we'll get an uncanny X-Force version later. That one has less silver in front like the minimate figure depicts, it also has a lighter blue face.
