Bale was great in American Psycho. I'm sure he'd be an interesting Mephisto and I'd like to see the character in the MCU. Initially I didn't think Disney would be gutsy enough to actually have a character based on the devil, but now I'm thinking it may not be that big a deal. Thanos murdered half the universe. Would a devil analog be so outrageous?

So that's Disney's big promotional push, releasing a trailer? I notice the Fox name right up front but not a lot of Disney or Marvel. They don't seem to have much faith in it, or perhaps they just don't want to confuse the audience by letting anyone think this might be part of the MCU. Not much chance of that happening from the trailer.

Contest of Champions is a great idea for an MCU movie. They've already established the Gamemaster and the Collector. They have them both pick teams of whatever Marvel superheroes or villains are still in play when the movie is made and have them duke it out on some alien planet or else the Earth gets destroyed or something. Simple and fun. Hulk vs. Thing. Thor vs. the X-Men.

I agree with you about that Cap figure. The 80th Anniversary line in general has been excellent. I have Thor, Iron Man and Captain America on my shelf right now. That Cap is just perfect. If they keep putting stuff out in this line, I'm going to end up replacing all my figures.

The FF does look pretty cool but I'm wondering if these are going to be released soon in a more classic color. I have a lot of FF but I've been replacing my Toy Biz stuff, which was great, with the even better Hasbro stuff. If these were classic colors, with a clear invisible woman and re-release of the flaming Human Torch in addition to the non-powered Sue and Johnny, I would preorder them. I'm assuming they will be released in the not to distant future with classic colors, and probably a smooth shaven Mr. F. They do look good though.

Those Cuckoos look pretty good. Walgreens is the problem. I haven't had any luck with Moonstar so I don't see why this would be different. I'm not going to pay inflated secondary market prices.

That She-Hulk is great. If there is one thing that's true about Hulk Marvel Legends, we get a lot of variations of the same character. I like this one and hope they keep giving us more. I haven't really been satisfied 100% with any of the She-Hulks to date. Some are better than others but I think this new figure looks really well done and is a step in the right direction.

I'd really like a Gen X pack, too. I think Hasbro was able to justify the cost of these figures with a smaller, but ardent, demand because these figures are mostly repaints with no accessories. There's not a lot original here, which keeps the price down. I am not complaining at all. I'm really glad Hasbro was able to make it work. I think GenX might be tougher though. Box would be a whole new sculpt. I guess Chamber might just get away with a new head. I guess they would have to do a new torso, too. Penance? Magic has some S&M outfit but she's probably too small. That would mean another all, or at least mostly, new sculpts. The Invaders would probably be a lot easier. I'd some flames sculpted on Torch but they would probably just go with black paint marks, unless they just did a re-release of the Walgreen Torch with a new head.

I will get these. I just hope we get a decent Cannonball in the near future. I'm with those we are mighty disappointed about him not having any legs. And for Sunspot, I'd rather have him in his non-powered up state. I can always paint a second one black and sprinkle some white spots on it if I really want the powered up one.

Great picture!

I pre-ordered mine when it first became available. Hasbro is really knocking out my want list from a few years ago. Blink. A decent Mystique. Dr, Doom done right. Sauron. I cannot believe there is a Sauron sitting on my shelf staring me down. And now Alpha Flight. I didn't get that Puck back when because I was hoping something like this might happen. Thank you, Hasbro!!

It makes sense the Punisher would steal and use a War Machine armor. He loves ordinance of all shapes and sizes. Why wouldn't he love a piece of military weaponry like War Machine?

Looks like Dogpool has a little peg on the back of the scooter seat to help him stay in place. I wonder where it plugs into?

Great news about Nighthawk! I've always been a fan of that character.

I am totally pumped! I'm a big fan of the X-Men and FF characters and would love to see them done right and in the MCU. I've enjoyed some of the X-Men movies, but they really are not well done enough and too far afield from the comics for me. No offense to Hugh Jackman, but he was never really Wolverine. The gravelly voice worked sometimes. I just opened the new ML Wolverine figure and it's great. Short, ugly, hairy and extremely bad tempered looking. Wolverine was such a dick when he started in the comics. Too much Magneto and Mystique in the movies. Fassbender was great but I never thought they handled Mystique right. And that make up was so horrible. They took two of the most beautiful women in the world and made them look ugly. Mystique is hot. They put this disgusting crap on their faces. And it's an ugly blue they've chosen. I know the MCU is going to do it right. Hopefully Feige sticks around at Disney long enough to make sure it's the done the way it should be.
