Absorbing Man wave: Venom, basic at its best!

Onslaught: Taskmaster/Onslaught, both detailed figures!

Giant Man: Giant Man, his height on the small, close second, Black Panther.

Space Venom: Space Venom, close second, Electro (look Ma, no hands! Not cool this time!).

Abombination: Abomination (thought the worst, turn out to be the best, IMO.).

Juggernaut: Rouge or Wolverine...way too close to call, 2nd, Deadpool (Pinky, bugs me!).

Marvel Legends mult-pack: TRU 3 pack Cap, Vision, and Hawkeye...All three well designed figures (look Ma, no wings! Not cool this time either!).

Can't wait for Dr. Strange wave to see which figure, in hand, IMO, is the best of waves...And, anybody know if the SDCC Dormammu is the same color as the his BAF that is coming out soon? And, anyone wondering why there has been no ML Doc Ock for any of the Spider-Man themed waves we have gotten so far, interesting...

By Wave:

Absorbing Man Wave: Jack O Lantern

Red Onslaught Wave: Mockingbird

Giant Man Wave: Black Panther

Juggernaut wave: Rogue but Kitty Pryde is an extremely close second.

Space Venom Wave: Silk

Abomination Wave: Wonder Man

I'm going to guess Enchantress is going to be my favorite for the Dr. Strange wave but hard to say.

Namor for all the exclusives. And Enchantress. I can't decide. I really love that SDCC set. But Namor is so flashy!


Over all winner. Rogue. Even if she's a (desperately needed) redo of a figure made by Toy Biz and not a 100% new figure she just is amazing. Which, if Kitty is a close second, it's entirely possibly she's my second favorite figure of the year, even more than Enchantress which is absolutely crazy.

As for the Dr. Octopus question, I'm going to say this now and predict he will be a BAF in either this upcoming mostly revealed wave, or a BAF for a third Spider-Man wave next year (which I assume there will be, with Homecoming being the second wave and most likely having a more movie oriented BAF.) And the other wave's BAF will be Sandman.


I wanted to add, I was out walmarting last night, hit a bunch of walmarts in the Middle TN area. I'm kind of watching my funds so I did not pick up any myself or for any arkers, but in almost every store I went in they had a ton of the MCU Winter Soldiers and Falcons. I'm sure they'll be showing up in droves soon for everyone. We are talking falling off the pegs and displays as well in some cases numbers. For those interested or in the area, I went to Rivergate, Hendersonville, Lebanon, Carthage, Mt Juliet, and Hermitage. Carthage is way out of the route and had not a single solitary Marvel Legend at all, but there were many many in every other store except for one and I can't remember which one it was . I know it wasn't Lebanon, they had the displays and cases vomiting these figures into the aisles. I saw some Phoenixes (Phoenixi??) Havoks, Icemans and Kitty Prydes as well, but nothing of the ones that people are really looking for. And of course, tons of the Odin and Thanos waves STILL. Also the Hendersonville store switched its shelves around and I guess they finally returned that banged up Boomerang. I kind of missed him LOL.
