I think it's no question that the strongest of the 3 waves to release this month was the Black Panther wave.

It's funny you say that...because I see some many requests for filler characters on the various wishlists that pop up here every other day, and then people complain when they get them because...well, they are filler.

(I'm guilty of a filler character desire myself here or there because my symbiote obsession is more of a sickness...but seriously...The Whizzer? Grizzly? Black Swan?...come on man. Do we really want these guys congesting toy pegs for months?)

I think the Kingpin wave is the stronger of the three waves honestly. More original figures with less retreads than the other waves, plus a deluxe sized BAF that's actually poseable from what I've seen. The serious amount of double dipping on the Panther wave hurt it in my eyes, and the Captain Marvel wave was just poopy...filler characters included.
