I cannot remember which issue but one of the first 6 from the latest Thor does a really good job of highlighting the various versions of Loki and that fact that no matter what look or gender it is always Loki. It sort of adds to the whole nebulous Loki the trickster idea. I have never been a Loki fan but I kind of liked how they explained it out.

I for one am at least happy to see Hasbro is making these never done before spider-man figures.

That is the great thing about Spider-Verse. It really opened up the fans to more versions of Spider-Man. Now we get these alternate versions instead of the umpteenth standard costume Peter Parker. Total win in my book. I am still surprised that Hasbro has not done a 6" Spider-Man Noir as he was one of the more prominent characters from Spider-Verse and is now a member of the Web Warriors. Personally I want a Spider-Ham just for the LOLs.

So I get why they put out so many different versions of him. If Legends had been done during the 90's we would have also seen a boatload of Wolverine figures every year, as that may have been the only decade Spider-Man didn't have a clear #1 character spot at Marvel, I'd say. I'd go to comic book stores and people would be complaining about Wolverine's overexposure. Yes, a different medium, but when you get down to it, the actual complaint is no different.

I personally just don't have any interest in any more Peter Parker Spider-Man figures, but it's not like I think nobody does. So I can pass on them and they can get them, all is fair and fine with me.

I do have an interest in other non-Peter Parker Spider-men figures and villains as well, so those waves still can be of interest to me, depending on the figures.

The funny thing is, Wolverine is still one of those over-saturated characters. It has simply become less noticeable from a Legends standpoint because of the limited number of X waves and the fact that Deadpool has seen such a rise since the movie. Still, we will probably never see a version of Deadpool in every X wave. Every recent X wave has had one version or another of Wolverine. I believe this latest wave is the only departure from the straight up standard Logan in a different costume. If we were getting more than one X wave a year it would probably be a lot more noticeable. I am in no way a Wolverine fan but I might actually pick up Old Man Logan just because he is something different.

I completely agree though. If I can pass up the character I do not want but he makes others happy, more power to them. Then I can decide to buy the figure later if/when it goes on sale. However, it would be nice if they would stick to not including BAF pieces with the repeat characters. Nothing like feeling forced into the character because you want the stupid BAF piece. I'm looking at you black suit Spidey....
