Fiege has inculcated me into a near perpetual sense of dread of how exactly Marvel Studios will fail to deliver on the exploits of my favorite heroes and villains. And, yes, I understand that most of the original T-Bolts have yet to be introduced into the MCU and that the assembled lineup has actually represented a team from the books. However, while I'm certain Feige knows which team I/we/most of us want on screen, his hubristically rigid adherence to his 'formula' takes precedence even over the wishes of fans.

While I'm full-on 'meh' over this cadre of 'who-cares' characters, I do hope that those that are enthused enjoy whatever's about to happen with this project.

For me, the only surprises were Red Guardian and Winter Soldier being on the team. The others were 'usual' members of Thunderbolts at various times. Plus we're looking at the 'official, currently announced team' that doesn't include anyone joining up mid-story or any additions that they didn't want to spoil yet due to plot from upcoming shows.

That said, I'd buy new figures of everyone but Bucky since it looks like he's just wearing the same thing from F&TWS.
