I like the wave also, but I said that at the Toyfair reveal. Unlike most, I'm not craving MCU Wanda and the fig is the least wanted of the bunch...I'd rather have one of Wanda's current looks on a retooled figure (get rid of the heels for all female figures, Hasbro). The whole hero costume-slash-contemporary fashion motif employed by filmmakers has never sat well with me. Which brings me to your point about colorful attire. I couldn't agree any more. Tacky costumes and wild designs are what super-heroes and super-villains are all about. Jarring and in your face. Gimme Speedball (not the drug cocktail, of course ) and an original Dr. Strange...I'll take your Madcap and Jack of Hearts, please and thank you...and throw in some original Captain Britain (don't get me wrong, this current offering was the one I wanted...but that original suit was a sight to behold) and original Wonder Man (or even movie-star Simon...again the offered version is the one I wanted most). Just as I prefer my super-heroes to be 'super' (gimme powers any day - human heroes are too mundane for my tastes)...I also like 'em loud and proud...

"Say it loud!" ha!...had to be added
