Yeah I really only want Iron Fist here as well, Luke looks good but not something I care about, already have a classic cage and the modern Defenders set Cage, this just isn't very necessary for me, but I hate the Iron Fist I have (Defenders pack), this one is far superior, I'll just bite the bullet and buy this 2 pack for Danny and sell the Luke. That's how they get ya!

obviously it makes sense to have these 2 together in a pack, but I would have loved it if it was like Iron Fist and Steel Serpent or Coleen Wing, or even a new Misty Knight, but whatever....

I can't see them not doing the classic Powerman and Iron Fist, so I'm gonna pass and get the Iron Fist in his classic collar; hopefully by then they'll have a proper 70s Luke Cage too. After all they did the gold suit Iron Man armor after the original first appearance gray, and they got that right. So, fingers crossed that Luke will get some redemption.

Agree that an Iron Fist and Steel Serpent would have been great!!

While I'm passing on this set to wait for what @Atlantis mentioned, it's nice to see they're giving these guys some alternate heads with aggressive facial expressions. That is something I've been wanting to see more of for the heroes. I'd hope they give that treatment to Cap, Thor, Hawkeye, Vision, Scarlet Witch, etc, etc, etc if/when they revisit their classic looks again.

These figures look GREAT!! What an improvement over past offerings. I love me some classic Iron FIST! 

[GrtWhiteCustoms]

Regarding Ms.Marvel/Warbird...upon closer inspection, I'm not overly impressed with this new buck. Hear me out...it just doesn't flow well with all the different cuts and joints. I know what you are thinking.... it is an improvement over other bucks that we have had but it just looks "off" to me. 

[raziel0203]

I think both of these figures look amazing! The Iron Fist in particular is one I just can't pass up. On it's own, I'd probably skip the Luke Cage, given I just got the him as Powerman but this one might grow on me. I'll have to get them side by side to decide. What an excellent problem to have!

I think they should have incorporated the hip boot swivel they used for the Iron Man Extremis armor into hers, which would have eliminated an unnecessary cut, and still provides articulation.  Still I hope this type of figure will be used when/if they ever do classic Mantis....

So great to finally have a good modern Luke Cage for my Avengers shelf.

 

[Psychosomatic]

Already planned on purchasing this for Iron Fist, but the pictures of the figures in packaging made me see just how good the Luke Cage is.  Sure wish the Classic Power-Man was as good as the new one, but here is to hoping he gets a rerelease down the road with the necessary improvements.

[Ironspider428]

This is an incredible 2-pack. The Iron Fist is going to go straight to the Maximim Carnage display and that Luke Cage is probably my favorite look for him period.

[Thwippersnapper]

Definitely getting Ketch but wish his neck fire wasn't red like that. Or maybe it's just certain images.

[AndyL]

I can not wait for this flipping thing. This was my intro into the Spirit of Vengence. It has been sooooo long coming. The reasoning why this took so long is a mystery but whatever it is it's just unforgivable. And for something that required very little altering of an already existing mold. SMFH. They put so much effort into that ridiculous Engine of Vengence debacle that the 2nd most successful GR completely got passed over. Hopefully the taste of that massive failure has left our mouths long enough that we finally get to see some more product on the GR end.

Already saved up my money for Ghost Rider.

[raziel0203]

So stoked for this Ghostrider! It's been a rough couple of weeks for my wallet but well worth it! I missed out on the last deluxe Ghostrider but I won't be making that mistake this time around!

[JayC]

Pre-order tomorrow.

[TheArrow]

Such a nice looking set.

[leokearon]

So getting that, the minute the Pre-Order goes live

[Psychosomatic]

It looks like the finish on the skull is the same as the finish on the last riders version...which was significantly better than the last two single releases that didn't have that same wash/finish.

[SpiderS]

My biggest grievance with this Ghost rider is the head sculpt reuse, they really could have done something different, there's some much variety they could achieve with flames, just like the human hair in 90s Ketch had all kind of crazy flames, it's missed opportunity and will look pretty lame when you have two ghost riders with exactly same head/flame sculpts.

Already preordered 

[McHogan]

Literally forgot about this until seconds ago. Whew, got mine!

[since83]

Literally had Luke and Danny 2 pack in my cart waiting to refresh at 12 on the dot. Ordered immediately. Not sure what took them so long to make Mr Ketch, but finally!!! Can't wait to get this one! 

[Thwippersnapper]

Went ahead and reserved one but I hope a 3rd party produces a more Ketchy head with a bigger/wider fire plume around his skull.

[MrAllMine]

So cool. Sold out on Hasbro Pulse already and EE has the wrong price listing it at 59.99….
