  1. I happily display my Toy-Biz with my Hasbro, and I happily display my Hasbro with my Toy-Biz. I don't hate on either one. I think, in my display, they complement each other. Some of the TB articulation has gotten loose, but I expect that will happen over time with any plastic toy. It really is a fun time to collect. I don't think it's nostalgia for me. Nostalgia comes in to deciding to purchase or pass on certain figures and chase the BAF part on the secondary market. In the TB years I bought everything. Now I stick to X-Men, and even those are limited to before the Grant Morrison reboot, so no HoX/PoX. I don't agree with the generalized sentiment that the Toy-Biz females were all ugly. Putting aside the fact that it is odd to speak thusly of pieces of plastic, the TB Psylocke, Shadowcat, Ms. Marvel (Warbird), Phoenix, and Mystique are perfectly acceptable allowing for diversity. I wouldn't say that Polaris, Jubilee, Boom-Boom, Dazzler, or Songbird are "10's" compared to those TB figures. I would put all of these figures in a group as comparable. I would argue that the "prettiest" female figure is the Jim Lee Jean Grey, but they couldn't even keep consistency between her comic look and her TV show look. The AoA Jean isn't up to that standard either. I'm not arguing that the TB Rogue or Spider-woman (either one) are competitive with their updates. They did make some clunkers, but Hasbro has too. Now I'm going to go do something manly like hammer an engine block a la Hot Rod....

  2. I also really want the rumored Wanda and Vision to be the Halloween versions, but I think it's more likely we'll get Wanda in her new suit and then some form of Vision. I haven't seen that he's supposed to be getting an updated look for the show but I guess we'll find out in a few weeks.
