  1. I ordered it… I need the Drax and Star Lord for my Infinity War display. I have the figures from GOTG2 but never picked up an additional one of each, and both have more than doubled on the secondary market. Plus, I’m happy to have Drax with the neutral face in his blue costume. I can’t tell from trailers and clips if Rocket is in the same costume in “Love and Thunder” or not. If he is then I’ll throw the Rocket with Star Lord and Groot. If not, I’ll see if I can sell off Rocket, Groot, and Gamora.
  2. Just a pair of LBCs, but a little tweak can make a huge difference. First up is the Caliban wave Gambit with the hair from the Retro Target exclusive. The hair pieces were a simple boil and pop swap since they’re designed to fit the same head. The other is the Retro Target exclusive with the hair from the MCU Winter Solider from Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The navy blue headgear, gloves, and pants with the more silver boots immediately reminded me of the Steve Skroce art from the first Gambit ongoing solo series. A lot of other artists drew Gambit with his original costume and longer hair in the early 2000s, and Winter Soldier’s hair fits that look. It just needed a bit of dremeling to fit, and then a dunk in hot water to shape it a little.
  3. I don’t remember seeing anyone post that Silver Centurion had been released yet... but I stumbled in to one today! I went to Walgreens to return the extra Moon Knight I had (bought 2 online so I’d get free shipping). They were having a hard time doing the refund, so asked if i was planning to buy anything else so they could do an exchange. I went to the toy aisle looking for GI Joe Classified, and the manager came up with a couple Ant Man, a Malekith, and what I thought was Iron Man 2020. He asked if I was looking for any of these, and I realized that it was Silver Centurion! I said I’d gladly take that and went back to the register to finish the exchange! This is in Jeffersonville, IN.
  4. Hey thanks for the support! I’m assuming Tarot is being sarcastic... Im not trying to claim I’m a better or longer fan than anyone... just trying to provide some context. I always found it odd that Mesmero was featured so prominently in that Jim Lee poster, literally alongside Magneto and Sabretooth, and that in consuming 25 years worth of X-Universe comics I don’t remember seeing him.
  5. With the Haslab Sentinel window closing and the Hellfire SDCC box set dropping soon, it’s got me thinking about my X-Men villain lineup. Hasbro has killed it the last few years between X-Men, Deadpool, and X-Force lines. Which brings me to a mystery I haven’t solved in 30 years... who is the green and purple character in the Jim Lee villains pinup? I remember my brother and I obsessing over the X-Men #1 deluxe issue, and ever since then I haven’t been able to figure out who this is. I own and have read just about every “X” related comic from about ‘89 to 2013... my friends and I were obsessed with the Marvel and X-Men cards in the early 90s... and I still don’t think I ever saw this character anywhere other than this poster. Anyone know?
  6. I’ve been wanting this Rogue figure since it was originally announced (and then cancelled) as part of the Wolverine wave with the Puck BAF. She will be part of my Utopia / Second Coming era X-Men display. Pyro is also very welcome... while there are still too many gaps to do a proper Brotherhood, he will nonetheless add to the pretty impressive group of evil mutants Hasbro’s put out over the last few years.
  7. I found the retro Spider-Man at Target in New Albany, IN. It was the only figure left from the case(s) that the store had.
  8. There was a Target logo on the screen with them... I’m guessing that after the fiasco of the G.I. Joe Classified Target exclusives this morning that someone told them to gloss over the release details...
  9. I’ve got a few ideas... - Excalibur (Captain Britain, Meggan, Phoenix, Shadowcat, Nightcrawler) - Warriors Three (comic) - Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (Toad, Mastermind, Pyro, Avalanche, Blob. I know this was never a roster together, but those are the key characters.) - Iron Man Hall of Armor (first appearance, underwater, Silver Centurion, and Modular)
  10. If I were to put together a “best of” X-Men wave I would think: - Brown costume Wolverine (as much as people don’t want to see Wolverine take up a slot, we know he’d have to be included. The Juggernaut wave figure and even the Retro figure are both expensive on the secondary market) - Cyclops (Jim Lee) - Rogue (Jim Lee) - Magneto (from the Amazon 3-pack) - Iceman (Juggernaut wave) - Psylocke - Gambit, Bishop, Beast, or Cable (Sasquatch wave) The only BAF that really makes sense for just a rerelease is Apocalypse.
  11. Moon Knight is back in stock on Walgreens’ website... I was able to submit an order and got a confirmation e-mail! https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/marvel-legends-series-moon-knight-preorder/ID=300399793-product
  12. So during the Hasbro Pulse Facebook livestream on Friday there was a comment made that they were looking at figures from the House of X / Powers of X / Dawn of X relaunch of the X-Universe. If and when Hasbro gets to the House of X designs, what would be your wishlist? I'd love to see a box set rather than a wave so that the waves can continue to be a mix of 90's and older figures that we still need. A box set featuring the cover of House of X #1 would cover all of the major hitters: - Professor Xavier (easy with the Sunfire buck and a new head) - Magneto (Apocalypse wave head, Moon Knight cape, X-Force Deadpool belt, Bucky Cap buck, new secondaries for gauntlets. In a perfect world it would have swappable bare arms like the Walgreens Reed Richards so that we can get the costume to go along with Cyclops, Magik, and Emma Frost) - Cyclops (Puck Cyclops repaint with the X-Force Deadpool belt) - Wolverine (X-Force repaint) - Marvel Girl (new head and skirt are about the only parts needed. This would also give us the classic Marvel Girl costume.) A lot of characters are just using classic costumes, so the only other characters I can think of that have newer costumes would be Storm and Psylocke (now Captain Britain). -
