So, today I got the Guardians wave (minus Starlord), and all the X-men wave, in good ol' London, UK.
My LCS orders cases from Hong Kong, whilst the much bigger shop, Forbidden something, just got last X-men wave last week, and they are mostly sold, but waaay too late for me. I don't get why such a big shop don't bother getting the latest, but I digress. Luckily for me my LCS kept all 12 figures for me (I got two Dazzlers, be rude not to).
After dipping stiff joints, and bend legs, wings etc, in boiled water, this is my reactions:
- I have no idea who Titus is, but had to get him. Drax movie is going to some kid, I prefer comic one. Had to have a Space-cat.
-my Yondu don't resemble Rooker but is fine, he will be displayed with crest up till a comic one arrives.
-Vance is ok, but he was an Avenger for 5 seconds so I had to have him.
- Darkhawk looks great, thou I don't care for the character, wings needed straightening.
-Kid Nova is very cute and sturdy so great poses out of him. No idea what the little toy is...
-Angela is without a doubt the better figure, even if I don't care for the character. Looks better in hand than pics.

-Old Man Logan's face is much better painted with washes than I expected.
-Shatterstar is a great looking figure (and I hate Liefeld characters), and he has feet.
-Dazzler if fantastic to pose, thou a pearlised costume would be better. I get why the hair is not bigger (she would not stand up on skates), but I'm frighten the white costume will yellow in time.
-I feel Colossus is a tad too small, but I actually like the outfit, and the heads are brilliant, I prefer the beard one, today.
-Polaris is very cute and her colours make her stand out a lot, but yeah, the cape keeps falling out...
-and then... Cyclops. Good sculpt, but he may be the most frustrating ML in yonks. Why the heck did they not glue those straps? What a mess. Can't wait for Byrne's Classic.
-the stand out has got to be Warlock. Just a piece of art. Whomever sculpt him, really like the character. Best BAF in years.

Finally, my LCS had Black Panther exclusive. Hated it. Patchwork figure. I'll keep to classic and movie, thanx.
