I hope we get her to. Here is my issue with Black Panther, and if I offend anyone, i apologize in advance as I am playing on the race of the characters a bit.

We have a huge milestone with the first MCU black lead. Most of the entire cast is black. That is awesome! I am all for representation of all people, and the fact is this movie SHOULD represent properly. But if the rumored list is true, we have Black Panther and a bunch of white people. It's not cool. It treads on disrespectful to the vision of the Black Panther line up.

You look at Mattel's line up for the ML compatible toys. SIx figures, five women. That movie was about female representation. Say what you want about the quality of the figures, but they brought it home with representation. I want Hasbro to do the same with the Black Panther wave.

Again I apologize if this was in any way offensive, I know topics of racial matters can be delicate, but I think it's a very legitimate concern with this movie and its Legends line.

But we did get Grim Reaper out of that wave. Still I know what you mean. Grimmy was a pegwarmer but he was much needed IMO. And I rarely saw the other two villains on the shelves, just Wasp, Ant-Man and Giant Man. and more Wasp...and more Wasp. So I get what you're saying, and we experienced the same with the Dr. Strange wave for sure. I think it's hard for Hasbro to know what figures to put in a "first movie" wave, but as my above comments notes, there should be some care given on this one if they don't want to piss off a whole demographic AND the collecting community. I'd much rather have a Killmonger than a 33rd version of Iron Man.....
