Though you know, Fin Fang Foom also first appeared in Strange Tales. He was in the 90s Iron Man cartoon and toyline. We have a retro Iron Man legends wave this year.Plus, it's also the year of the dragon. I would say there's a lot of synergy with the idea that he could(and should) be the Haslab this year.

Two years ago, I would have been all over this wave in excitement. However, a lot has changed, I am now unemployed, prices are higher, and I'm running out of space. As such, I have to be extremely picky on what I buy, and 99% of that is reserved for Spider-Man or Claremont era X-Men characters.
