Not sure what MI-13 is (super-selective in my comic buying), but I'm always up for a comic based 5-pack. An Excalibur set would score extra points from me just because the classic team is the perfect mix of favorites and wants.

Plus, the MCU collectors got their treat with the Children of Thanos . . . it's OUR turn now.

BTW: If this set IS 150 bucks, that translates into 30 bucks per figure. At that rate, they better go ALL OUT on the accessories. I'm a fan-boy, but I'm NOT easy.

MI-13 is the government agency that Excalibur worked for and became a part of. It is full of British heroes including Blade

If it's Excalibur, then we better be getting a classic Captain Britain on a new buffer buck Brian is 6'6. Instead of NC, how bout that character who wielded a sword & had wolfish features. His name escapes me at the moment, krylun?

I guess we're all gonna want what we want, but if they do this, I'd rather have the classic team. For one thing, that Kitty will go great with my growing collection of classic X-looks.

Jungle...Welcome to the Jungle....Guns N Roses, the "Jungle" they refer to is Los Angeles.....It's a West Coast Avengers boxed set. I'm guessing Tigra, Wonder Man, Classic Mockingbird, US Agent, hopefully someone obscure like Redwolf...

REDWOLF!!! Yes! Bring it on!!

It's likely the set is more like $100-$120, as the conversion rate doesn't mean a whole lot when it comes to reverse-engineering Legends prices listed in Euros. American-made toys are just more expensive in Europe, as there are more expenses related to Hasbro getting the product over there. If it is $150, maybe it comes with a lighthouse...

Good points; its also possible that price will change (lower) closer we get to release and reveal date. If they have more figures than we normally see in box sets, that could be a factor too.

Yeah, I can see that too. Still, it indicates something more than a 3 pack which includes one "larger" figure such as the Nimrod set. If they were to do an Excalibur set it would be 5 figs around $23 a piece with no "larger" figure, but could possibly have a more articulated Lockheed and Widget with attachable parts to simulate the portal. I dunno what everyone else's price threshold is but I've been wanting a completed Excalibur for so long it might not be a bridge too far for me to cross. Maybe Hasbro knows this and is counting on that as a selling point.

There's a lot of reusable parts and it wouldn't take much. I just hope they don't use the bony legged, knobby knee Kate Bishop buck for Rachel and actually use the Moonstone buck for Meggan. At least they have no reason to misuse the Sunfire buck again.

If I held my breath every time Hasbro coulda/shoulda done something the right way I'd be six foot under by now.

Yeah, but don't we usually have at least SOME kind of leaked info or even pictures by now?

Not that anything about the last year and a half has been at all "usual."

I seem to remember SDCC exclusives usually being leaked or shown around a month prior so hopefully we see some teaser pics within the next few weeks or so.

Nope!! No joy. Maybe next month....

Seriously what are they waiting for, I guess some Hasbro super online con that replaces SDCC, but come on, SDCC normally would be around the corner you'd think they'd have hit the gas just a bit. I am really starting to miss the con reveals where we'd get a big huge chunk of figures to see at one time, these little web shows and 1 off reveals are kinda just tiring, so we get 2 things tomorrow, one's probably going to be a 12'' singing Dazzler doll and the other going to be a figure of Kevin Feige 😪
