Pulse has shipped a few top notch figures the past couple of weeks but I'm going to go ahead and post my Top 10 of 2022.

Honorable Mentions: Marvel Select Immortal Hulk and Marvel Legends Renew Your Vows Spider-Man

10. Skrull Army Builder
9. Baron Zemo
8. Retro Carded Scorpion
7. 2 Pack Venom
6. MCU Peter Parker - The smiling head isn't great and I really wish he had a web shooting hand but otherwise, the figure turned out great. Tom's my favorite Spider-Man.
5. Daredevil (3 pack) - I love this figure. The articulation, sculpt, and accessories are all great. I also love that they used a dark red for the whole costume rather than using a different color for the gloves and boots.
4. Retro Carded Lizard - One of the more nerve inducing purchases this year. While I never had an issue with the BAF, this is more of what I think of for the Lizard.
3. Amazing Fantasy #15 Spider-Man - I honestly thought the Renew Your Vows Spider-Man would take this spot but the articulation gives the AF15 the edge. This is the closest any Spider-Man figure has come to a natural looking 4 point crouch. Best of all, he comes with the full assortment of hands that every Spider-Man should come with. I also really like the cel shaded, animated series variant as well as the Amazing Friends variant.
2. MCU She Hulk - I've been waiting for a great She Hulk for a long time and she's finally here.
1. X-Men: The Animated Series VHS Cyclops - I was honestly surprised by this figure. I don't watch reviews anymore but I knew this figure came on a new body. But I didn't expect the amount of changes and improvements that went into this figure. Outside of wanting an alternate head, this figure is perfect to me.

BAF: I didn't complete a single BAF this year. A lot of that comes down to character choice, rising prices, and lackluster MCU content.
