I love the reveals today. Spider-Man, Electro and Gwen Stacy with the alternate Mary Jane Watson head are my favorites of the retro wave. Electro is lightyears better than the modern Electro figure, especially since this one has alternate hands and a better head sculpt. Plus, Electro's classic costume is my favorite of his and Electro's one of my Top 5 favorite Spider-Man villains so he's a must-buy. I will likely get Green Goblin, but the eyes on the mask are very disappointing. I was surprised by how awesome Moon Knight turned out to be. He's another must-buy, but I hate that he's a Walgreens exclusive.

As for the vague "wait and see" answers of the interview, I'm sure we'll get the full details on the possible Amazing Friends retro figures, Powers of X and House of X figures, the rumored Hellfire Club characters, future retro Toy Biz waves, and the X-Men movie figures during mid-summer.

All I really want from Hasbro now, if they're reading, are more retro Spider-Man figures (Chameleon, J. Jonah Jameson, Shocker, Boomerang, Hobgoblin, John Romita Sr. version of green-and-orange suit Doc Ock with bendable wire tentacles, Black Cat, classic Kaine and non-Build-A-Figures for Sandman, Lizard and Rhino, please), more X-Men movie figures ('X2' Cyclops, Jean Grey, Lady Deathstrike, Magneto, Nightcrawler and Storm, 'X-Men: The Last Stand' Beast, Iceman, Rogue and Shadowcat, 'Days of Future Past' Quicksilver, 'Apocalypse' Psylocke and a 'Logan' two-pack of Logan and X-23, please), classic lab coat Bruce Banner, orange-and-black suit Leader, classic White Queen, classic "Secret Wars" era original suit Rogue, classic Falcon, classic Captain Marvel II, Ringmaster, Constrictor, Mr. Hyde, Ultron, Kang, the Fantastic Four and She-Hulk in their John Byrne era blue-and-white F.F. suits, Mr. Fix-It Gray Hulk, an easy-to-find Jim Lee Cyclops with an optic blast accessory, Merged/Professor Hulk in his brown Pantheon era jumpsuit, and a classic scaly-chainmail Captain America repainted with brighter suit colors, a smiling Captain America head sculpt based on John Byrne's artwork and his round and triangular shield accessories with straps on the inside to fit the shield(s) on the figure's arm.

Now if we could just get some retro Toy Biz animated series figures for the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, X-Men, etc., we'd be in business. And really, who wouldn't want animated series figures for characters like Iron Man, Doc Ock and Morph?
