Sauron is a great BAF, but the wave sucked ass with only two figures worth buying.

Never picked up either Avengers wave and didn't give a damn about the BP BAF either.

As such, the defacto winner is the Apocalypse wave. Apocalypse was just down right amazing and the wave was full of great figures with Storm, Wolverine, Psylocke, Gladiator, and Sabertooth.

The only thing I'd say Hasbro needs to do is fix their distribution shit. There is no reason I should be seeing figures in stores 2 months before the websites I preorder from get them instock and there is no excuse for why the Spider-Man waves are rarely showing up in stores, if at all. It's bullshit. Hell, the Wolverine with the motorcycle has yet to show up in stores and I had to go to another state just to get the Walmart Thanos. I've still yet to see another Pyslocke around here so I can try to get one that doesn't have a paint issue, but my Targets and Walmarts recently restocked the Warlock wave. Does this mean this time next year they'll start to restock to the Apocalypse wave?

The only figures that were easy to obtain were the Walgreens ones (well, the Marvel ones, still waiting for the Empire general dudes to show up for Star Wars).

I like the Apocalypse wave, but IMO they could have done a better job with Psylocke, and the Multi-Man with that ten year old jacket was kind effortless on Hasbro’s part, and giving us another Gladiator was great, but no creativity on Hasbro part to put in a new figure even with using the same body mold, and while Apocalypse is a great BAF, his articulation could have been better...But to each us own, Storm and Wolverine were the standout this wave, like Mags, but that color scheme is funky to me,
