  1. Pretty much just done so the amount of people tuning in doesn't take Disney+ down by releasing Loki and Bad Batch on the same day.
  2. I'm all for this figure. I'll be stocking up on the movie figures for a while by the looks of things. On a side note, that Iron Monger must be a 2 or 3 figure set considering it's priced higher then Surtur who is most likely a BaF size figure I would imagine
  3. I'm torn on these. I have a large collection of MCU figures. Not tons of room for Captain America Falcon. Zemo is pretty much a must for me and as USAgent is one of favorites I'll most likely want him too. It's going to depend if any of these are part of a wave of figures and what the BaF might be.
  4. I'm in Canada, so it be interesting to see what is added here. Things already became very huge when they added their Star app into Disney+, so adding Sony movies and TV would be exciting. I'd be more excited about the Spider-man stuff if I didn't already own them on iTunes. Guess I'll look forward to future movies.
  5. Legion comes as a bit of surprise for me. I would expect another Holocaust/Nemesis BaF, though I could see it being Colossus.
  6. Lots of options for Russell Crowe. I could totally see him playing another Elder of the Universe. I could see him perhaps playing a younger Odin. Considering this movie involves Gorr, it could even be a God of some sort that he kills.
  7. Pretty sure I'll be paying the extra $30 to watch. Wouldn't be many movies I'd do that for but I love me some MCU. I've said before too that if they did a major theatrical run when things are normal, I'd pay to see it in theaters as well.
  8. Sabretooth is a given and considering the crappy one we got from ToyBiz, I feel they'll put a lot into him this time. Magneto and Rogue would be ideal, but I could see them doing a two of those two. Saying that's what they do, then I would have: Sabretooth Cyclops Shadowcat Iceman Havok Nightcrawler Abyss BAF: Colossus If they don't do the two pack of Magneto and Rogue, then remove Iceman and Havok
  9. For this show, I tried really hard not to read too much about it online nor listen to fan theories. I personally feel fans trying to write a better show then what's being put on tends to ruin things. When people started to complain about the first three episodes, it drove me nuts because it proves people just don't have the patience for weekly television anymore. I enjoyed the series completely. I've read Vision and the Scarlet Witch as characters for over 30 years now and it was super exciting to see them get center stage. The Monica Rambeau Captain Marvel was in the Avengers when I first started reading comics, so that was a big bonus for me as well. I actually welled up when she went through the hex barrier and appeared to fully get her powers. SPOILERY BITS I get how some people are going to be pissed about how the Peter Evans character panned out, but I'm optimistic that there's more that could happen there. There's a guy in the MCU that looks like Quicksilver from another universe and we have two movies coming up that will actually deal with the multiverse, so while I know everyone wants things tied up neatly in a little bow, I say let it play out. I admit even at one point they got me on board with the whole "It's Mephisto!" thing, but really believe that a big name character like Mephisto should get a bigger introduction then a spot on a tv show. I would have liked to have seen a bit more of Darcy in the finale as well. She proved to be a popular character and helped move the story. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt here though as I have a feeling that the pandemic might have played a little part there and perhaps Kat Denning wasn't able to get back to film certain spots OR they just cut certain things for pacing reasons. Keep in mind that WandaVision was supposed to be the second tv series released and I believe about the 5th or 6th event in Phase 4. It got moved to being the first, so there's a possibility that things had to be rewritten slightly. Agatha was a great character and was very happy that they didn't kill her off. There's a chance at a redemption arc down the road. As far as Hayward goes, again I'm optimistic. I don't think SWORD is going anywhere and there's an argument to be made as to just what he did that was illegal. They had rights to Vision's body and they were also actively trying to stop what Wanda was doing which was basically a mass kidnapping. Her being a being with powers may have given them the authority to do what needed to be done. Yes, it's dastardly that he wanted to make Vision into their weapon, but as was stated, he now belonged to them. I do think we could see him again in Captain Marvel 2 or Secret Invasion. I really like the idea that the "real" Vision is still out there. I'm of the mind that he does have his memories back, however he does not have his soul anymore, so it may be still a more robotic Vision we see again in the figure. Lastly, the idea that Wanda is now a villain is interesting. I would put her more as misguided. She knows now that she has these powers and while there might be sorcerers out there (looking at you Dr. Strange) that know not to read the Darkhold, Wanda doesn't. Her already fragile psyche isn't going to be prepared for what is in that book and may make her more determined to get her fake life back. Her hearing her children at the end could be proof of that. Also, some folks saying "She got away at the end", who was really going to stop her? They are probably trying to find her almost immediately after she left. The main thing I would say is that anyone that was expecting all the answers in this show should have been kidding themselves. This is the very first post-Endgame MCU event, so you should have known it was going to be used to build towards the future. Try to remember that when Falcon and Winter Soldier starts.
  10. That Eye of Agamotto replica isn't a new thing. It's been around for awhile now. Maybe it just never hit European markets. I agree on the SPD being Spiderman related. I don't think they've done any Spiderman realistic masks. Could see something like with web shooters.
  11. I wasn't on board with the whole Mephisto thing until this most recent episode. I just didn't think they'd pull the trigger on him, however even that said I wouldn't be surprised at all if it ends up as Nightmare leading into Dr Strange 2. I know a lot people are thinking Anges is Agatha Harkness. I don't know if she's directly responsible for everything though. She may be the reason things have happened, prehaps being the one that let Mephisto/Nightmare/The big bad into this reality.
  12. That's what I'm trying to look at. Get past the title (which personally I don't think they should have used) and hope it's a decent alternate reality storyline like House of M.
  13. When seeing the promo artwork I was really hopeful Carlos Pacheco was doing this, but looks like Ed McGuiness. I don't hate Ed's work but it would have peaked my interest a lot more if Carlos was doing the full series. Considering this seems to involve a lot of the stories going on in the current Avengers run, I'll give it a shot
  14. This strikes me as being characters from the first Iron Man (IM1), Thor Ragnarok (THR3) and Avengers Endgame (AVN4). That being said, they're all also different prices which makes me think it's a 3 pack on the first one, a deluxe figure on the second and a two pack (maybe 3) on the last. We've never had an full Obadiah Stane figure and the Iron Monger figure they did was too small, so a deluxe wouldn't be bad. They'd probably add in an Iron Man or Tony Stark figure. We've also never had a standard Pepper (only the one from the IM3 3-pack). If they were doing a deluxe Ragnarok figure, the one that comes to mind for me would be Surtur. For Endgame I could see a couple options. Red Skull, Black Widow and Hawkeye might be an idea. As mentioned before Fat Thor in full costume prehaps with Frigga. Maybe add Rocket to complete it too.
  15. The only good thing about Heroes Reborn is that it made everyone want the originals back. I hate to think Marvel is intentionally planning a bad storyline to help boost sales down the road, but lords knows unintentional ones haven't done that (looking at you Infinity Wars).
  16. I always had it in my head that he would make some sort of appearance in Falcon and Winter Soldier, even for just a cameo. To me, this now gives them the opportunity to do something with him being involved with Shield in the past.
  17. Happy to hear Lady Deathstrike may get an upgrade. I cleaned up my X-Men display the other day and found my old ToyBiz version at the back. It's a terrible figure. I'd love if the Hydra Supreme came with a couple extra heads (Red Skull, etc). We're long past due for a Hood figure. Big thumbs up from me on that one.
  18. 1) Strong Guy. Been waiting years for a proper Marvel Legends figure of him and they delivered completely. 2) Kang. Such a fan of this character that I bought two. One to go with the rest of my Marvel Legends and another to go in my main display of favorites. 3) Kingpin (retro package). I've become a bit obsessed collecting the retro figures on card, but I bought a second Kingpin for display because he was so well done 4) Thunderstrike. Again, another figure I loved for the comics that finally got a proper action figure. 5) J. Jonah Jameson (retro package). Similar to the Kingpin, I have two of these. It was great to get classic Daily Bugle editor JJJ instead of the suit and tie one I've had since the Chameleon.
  19. I'm all about a Guardsman figure. I can see Blacklash as well. I imagine an Ironheart would be in the works. I think given that we're getting a Marvel Select Titanium Man, I'd be more partial to a BAF Classic Crimson Dynamo
  20. I'll give Marvel a lot of rope before saying they've hanged themselves, but that honestly looks like they've lifted a design from DC's movie villains. Kind of uninspired and considering what he looks like in the books, rather dull
  21. If he shows up in Antman the same way Thanos shows at the end of Avengers or in the first Guardians movie, then I'm good with that. Kang is too big a deal to just be a villain in an Antman movie and nothing else. He needs to be the big threat the MCU deals with next.
  22. Absolutely yes to both Quasar and Thunderstrike. It's actually yes on all the rest as well but I know realistically Hasbro isn't going to produce jacketed Avengers members. Considering they've done the Havok/Polaris pack from X-factor, I suppose there's a chance of an exclusive 2 or 3 pack. Just don't see them going mass market with them. An a side note to Quasar and Thunderstrike, I would also be hopeful for Dr. Druid, Stingray, classic costume Captain Marvel II (Spectrum) and above all Starfox
  23. Have they announced if they're postponing anything? And I'm not just talking the HasLab. With the way things are currently, I've had to just downright stop collecting for the sake of saving money. If they are planning on still releasing waves of figures, there will be a lot that I miss.
  24. I don't see them casting Christian Bale to play Beta Ray Bill. He's a fair too high profile to just play a side role. If Marvel want him for multiple movies, then Mephisto makes the most sense (and that's what I would love to see him play). Gorr is a good choice too if he's just signing on for the one movie.
