Very cool figure

Great looking figure. I was looking at my old one and she was way to inflexible. This one is a big improvement.

This is some great news. I've been wanting a Toad since the first wave of Toy Biz Marvel Legends gave us that left over, low articulation 7 inch scale. Now we're getting a deluxe package one. I haven't seen it yet and I can't wait to pre-order it.

I appreciate the side by side pics. I pulled out my old Tigra to see if I'm actually committed to my pre-order. While I do like the paint detailing on the nails and belt on the old one, her joints are pretty bad. The figure is also kind of lanky. I'm definitely going with the new one. I may paint her finger and toe nails though.

Madam Hydra is a nice addition. I'm definitely getting that one, at least.

But they've already done Iron man

I really like that they're doing a deep cut with Maggot. His power is pretty gross but he has a different look. I assume he'll come with two big rubbery maggots that are bendable. These leaks have been great. Hopefully we find out the BAF soon.

I have to say, though I never cared about the armored Spider-Man character, that is a good looking figure. I pre-ordered Hammerhead and Shocker. I'm on the fence about that one.

No legs? I'd be up for Bushmaster or Bonebreaker, to flesh out the bad guy teams.

Not that I'm interested in ordering, but why couldn't Hasbro take another batch of orders? They have the molds and apparently that's one of the big expenses. The next batch would have a lot more profit for them since the molds are already done and don't have to be paid for again. They could run it for a month, take a bunch of orders and buy a wheelbarrow to carry all the cash they'd make.

Boobie Gazer

If Havok is part of this wave, a classic FA version is the one I'd want. I know we've gotten him before but I'd like to have him with the higher quality standards Hasbro has been mostly delivering lately.

It was smart of them to leak Siryn first. She's been on a lot of people's wishlists so they get immediate fan support from the "rumor". They get that from Jay when they do something with US Agent. We comic genre fans make it easy for them. We like doing polls and wishlists. Any other market area they have a hard time getting quality feedback. When someone is in the mall and gets asked for a few minutes to help a marketing company by doing a survey, most people say no. Not us. We tell them exactly what we like and what we want. Can you see that with shoes? Has a shoe buyer ever made a top 20 list of unmade shoes they want? I doubt it. We do that all the time. So they know some of us, including me, want Siryn. They get immediate, vocal fan approval without us even knowing which costume they're going with. That's some good marketing.

See, the release of Shang-Chi was an experiment. They were testing the waters. The waters passed. Now a more traditional MCU release plan will happen since they can see the box office is there. Black Widow opened relatively well and Shang Chi beat a weekend record. Theater only will probably continue, unless of course there is another wave.

I definitely want Siryn. Darwin I can pass on. Whether I get him depends on who the BAF is. I know people are pulling for Blob, but I think Spiral could use an update. What they did back in the day was quite impressive but she could use an update. I know a BAF of her might be odd since she isn't a large character but with the 6 arms and accessories, I could see them doing her as a BAF to do her right.
