On the Sandman wave of Legends, I hate that we get NO Normal Norman head for Goblin and no normal arms for Sandman. It is nice we get alternate sand hand forms, but I have the old Toybiz Sandman and he is pretty hard to beat.

Yeah...I just pre-ordered Wave 9 of the Black Series as well. I'm not going to play around with trying to hunt for Revan or Sabine, as there are still characters from that line I managed to find only once (Ahsoka, R2-D2) or never in the wild (Boba). While I'm not thrilled with buying the case, I still wanted 4 figures out of the wave and figured it would be worthwhile. I should be able to gain back a bit of the cost once I dump the army builders (AT-AT Pilot and Snowtrooper) as I have no interest in keeping them...

Since you have Krenick, I saw him the other day, and was curious if the head could be swapped with any of the Red Skull figures we've received, or is it similar to the General Hux where the peg is too small for a proper fit? I really think Skull would look good in the regal looking uniform that Krennic's figure has.

A little bummed that we didn't get an alternate head for GG as well, especially when we got two for Hobgoblin when I didn't feel it was necessary (as I really thought the Demon Head was ugly and poorly done.) I'm sure there will be plenty of casts out there in no time, even though an official head would have been keen...

The lack of proper normal arms for Sandman is kind of a bummer, but I also have the old ToyBiz one, and since he is a pretty beefy figure, will be using that one for normal displays, with the new BAF for when he goes into crazy Sandman-rage mode. The new sculpted parts on the upcoming BAF looks good, and saves me the trouble (not to mention the scary times) of having to swap out those interchangeable arms on the original ToyBiz offering.

@WTB: Is the new Spider-Man UK on the Hyperion body? He looks kinda buff, but it's hard to tell from the photo. Do you have any out of box shots?
