I'm glad for Mary Jane as we may have not even gotten one then.
I'm sure the other heroes/villains will be made eventually.

No, I mean X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Their Astonishing X-Men Cyclops for wave 3, and Iceman are exactly the type of X-Men figures I'm looking forward to.
As I said, secret wars excluded. Cyclops was in the secret wars as were other Mutants.
And the MJ Spidey twopack would have come eventually it always does. Just like we'll probably see a jean grey cyke one down the line, then cyke and emma, and eventually Rogue and Gambit. Those are Icons, it's like having a Marvel line and not making wolverine or spiderman, it just doesn't happen.

It'd be nice if the line actually had a better representation of female heroes though than they have done. Firestar and Ms. Marvel are awesome, but two out of how many?

As for my comparison to X-Men origins, I actually prefer the balljoints they use over Marvel Universe for some. Deadpool gets way better poses now than he would have in MU, as does wolverine over his MU counterpart, and Black Panther from MU can't do any of the poses he should be able to. At least cap and Ironman came out awesome though. So it's mostly a mixed bag. Archangel in either one wouldn't really matter though, havoc maybe if he's as limited as black panther is.

So yeah, what I said still stands. Toy Biz had done that right in the early days before they got in over their heads with so many sublines. Two is perfect. X-Men, and rest of Marvel. I'm talking late 80s early 90s Toy Biz, not the X-men/X-force era that followed. It also keeps a steady flow of figures without being overabundant. Hopefully every figure will be made. But I don't think many of us want to wait 2-4 years for our favorite characters to be made. Some fans aren't even MU friendly, just as some aren't X-Men friendly, so that divide would keep all kinds of fans happy. Though if they improved the joint work in some of the MU's that should have it like they said they would initially (and shown they did with Spiderman, Cap, and even DD). But how the heck did panther slip through the cracks on that?

It's not like I'm saying we need bishop and shard two packs, or even any real obscure characters like the grasshopper. Just some real MU heroines or obscures would be nice as opposed to this list which except for Havoc, is all would have gotten one eventually anyway figures. Yes, MJ included.
Jameson I would have voted on if he were on the list though. I don't think he's ever gotten a fig period. I own the previous MJ figs, so I'd rather have more heroes and villians before even worrying about bystanders. Jonah gets excused since he created the scorpion and other spidey issues. xD

Honestly, I would have prefered Gwen Stacy or even the Black Cat over MJ. Nothing against MJ, just as I said, she would have had a figure sooner or later anyway. Gwen Stacy may never, and they already have the goblin and spidey.

Thank god for two more slots still.
