  1. This looks so good! I’ve always thought Gambit looked sharp in the school uniform. I really wish they had included a trenchcoat for him, though. I know he was wearing it in #277. Guess I’ll be digging out a Toybiz Gambit from their Xmen Boxed Set. I think it had a cloth trenchcoat. Anyone know of any better options?
  2. There was a mail away for Feral in the 5 inch Marvel Gold line I believe through Wizard Magazine. Only Feral ever released that I can remember.
  3. I was wondering as well. After some research apparently Epix streaming service is being rebranded as MGM+ in early 2023. Of course, I don’t know what Epix is. LOL. Apparently Amazon owns both Epix and MGM (If I knew that, I had forgot.).
  4. For those that may not know, Zero is an android that is a teleporter. He is a core member of the Mutant Liberation Front and Stryfe’s right-hand man (or is that Bot?). I’m pretty sure Zero showed up in New Mutants 86 - Cable’s first appearance. If I remember correctly, there are other versions of this android series. Cable had one named 11 in the future. I think that’s the only one that was ever seen.
  5. Thrilled to pick up the X-Men five pack! I have Stryfe already, but thrilled to get the other new characters. Random - helps fill out the 90’s X-Factor. Man, we need Wolfsbane. Pretty Boy - helps fill out the Reevers. Verdigo - finally, the start of the Marauders! Zero - Finally, the start of the Mutant Liberation Front!
  6. This is back up on Amazon. I just put in an order.
  7. Well played, Hasbro - you included a BAF I want in a wave I wasn’t planning to buying all of. LOL was only looking to pick up the Orb, Molecule Man, and Von Strucker. Now to decided if I want to buy the entire wave or chance the BAF on eBay. EBay BAF prices have been pretty high lately.
  8. Missed it again. It’s not the end of the world, though. I mostly wanted the Life Foundation symbionts to complete the team since I have the other three from completing BAFs.
  9. Yikes! You’re absolutely right. I completely forgot about SDCC set. Thanks for the reminder.
  10. Beautiful piece of art. I’m also shocked to realize that all but two of these villains exist in comic form Marvel Legends (Mephisto and Hela). Technically, Mandarin and the Leader were done by Toybiz for their Marvel Legends line and that Mandarin isn’t the same costume shown here. Maybe this will be released as a poster at some point.
  11. I know the xmen retro wave is going up on Hasbro Pulse today, but will it go up on on retailers today as well? Later? They didn’t say that it was a Pulse Exclusive. Also, I’m now really torn on cancelling that super expensive SDCC Mojo set. I really like the paint on the boxed set Mojo and love the Dazzler, but dang, I like the Single carded Longshot.
  12. That Mojo needs some serious paint apps. The boxed convention set has a lot more paint (if the renders and prototype are to be believed.)
  13. I’m not a giant Ghost Rider fan in general. I like him as a background character. I will admit, though, this is a sweet looking figure and car. I’m way more excited about seeing the Marvel Legends version than I have ever been about seeing artwork of this car. $350 is way more than I would pay for this though. I thought the Sentinel was a overpriced at $300 for what it was. I certainly don’t think that this set is better than the Sentinel. I kind of think - a nice Hot Toys MCU figure is $100 less than this car and figure. That’s kind of staggering. I personally think the Hot Toys figures are better than this car and figure. I still go back to you could buy two of the Transformers Scorponok figures at retail and have money left over for what this set will cost you. I can factor in demand and cost to manufacture and inflation and all of those things. Still, it seems slightly high to me. Depends on how many figures end up being included. I wish they would just show everything and see if people will fund it.
  14. Trapster is at the top of my want list at this point, followed by the comic version of Ghost. I think that is definitely the Orb’s gun.
  15. I’m going to go against the grain and guess that it’s a role play item. I think it will be a GhostRider mask with lights, burning ambient sound, articulated jaw, and maybe a voice changer. While the Marvel Legends Brand already does helmets, something like a GhostRider mask would be much more expensive to produce and have less of an appeal as say...a Clonetrooper helmet. Here are two random pics I pulled from Google.
  16. Whew, this didn’t go so well on my end. Missed Spider-man and Cosmos from Transformers. Got a Lizard. I’ll keep watching, I’m hoping these might come back up. Doubt it for Cosmos, though.
  17. Neither for me. The Blackbird would be gigantic and ultimately it’s just a plane. While FFF is cool, he’s never been one of my favorite characters. I’d like a playset of some type. A Danger Room would be awesome! I can imagine all kinds of killer attachments. Or a building exterior (similar to NECA’s). That would have crossover usage with other six inch figure lines. I’d still like to see a HasLab that is an entire team of figures. My vote is the Mutant Liberation Front. Start with maybe seven figures and others would be unlocks. Because I don’t think that there is a chance of us ever getting the complete MLF over the course of years of single figure releases. Currently we have one (Stryfe). The Acolytes are another team. Imperial Guard also.
  18. Awesome! I’ll probably pick that up for the Spider-Man shelf. $28 for a 6in scale vehicle? That’s cheaper than some 6in Marvel Legends figures.
  19. This is exciting news! I was afraid that Disney would neglect classic POTA. I’m thrilled to hear we may be getting some new adventures!
  20. I would have loved a mid-drift Dazzler with the short hair or a Jim Lee era Dazzler in this set. Still, this Dazzler isn’t bad.
  21. That’s funny! I’m happy to have the figure. The Faceoff version doesn’t really fit in anymore.
  22. Awesome! I just ordered mine through the app. For some reason it wouldn’t let me ship to store. The website normally does.
  23. Thanks. I just ordered him! Whew! This was a rough day. I picked up the Mojo Set (I’m a huge Dazzler and Longshot fan), two Toei Spider-man (one for the Spidey collection and one to play with at work), and Bag-Man. I ended up passing on Firelord and WarMachine. I like that War Machine, but not enough at these prices.
