I'm very happy with most of the wave! The only exceptions are Cap (enough already) and Iron Man (check my caveat for Cap). Hellcat, like Machine Man before her, keeps my hopes for "obscure-character-fan-service" alive and well (more please)! Batroc will fill out my "Cap rogues gallery" very nicely (if we're going left-field on Cap enemies, can we get a Baron Blood? He'd also complement the Union Jack fig!). And then there's Thanos. While Infinity stunk, the design created for Thanos was both refreshing and inspired. I'd still like a Samaritan version of the mad Titan......

Tangentially, I really hope we see Tigershark (what's a Namor with no Tigershark?), Blizzard, and Bulldozer soon. The only burning question remaining is: where is that Valkyrie we saw pics of during last year's SDCC? I'm eager to know, because from what I recall, she looked to be an all new female buck....she was a real looker, and along with Hellcat, will bring me that much closer to a proper Defenders line-up.
