Definitely one of the better unmasked Logan heads. (There's not much competition out there though!)

I wasn't aware of that fan poll so thanks for the link! Am I correct to guess that AOA Sunfire won the poll? And yes! It's time Hasbro released a Giant-Sized X-men Storm costume. I've been a proponent of, instead of Wolverine, having Storm be the X-man they release a version of for the next few waves. Ororo's got so many good costumes/looks that haven't been translated to action figure form, yet. Plus I think Giant-Sized X-men aka First Appearance Storm is my fave out of her costumes.

I'm staring at my Toybiz NightCrawler that's on my shelf right now. The ball hip hinges are distracting and when I was posing him yesterday it was hard to stand him up as the leg joints are hard to position. My Hasbro one has arrived at my sister's so I haven't gotten him yet so improvement on those two things is something I'm looking forward to when I finally have him in-hand. The Toybiz head didn't/doesn't bother me but the Hasbro ones look good too.

If they're going for a Morph TAS version (head + Blue and yellow costume), they can totally include both good and eye bagged Morph plus an extra head like a Gambit. Perhaps there's a way to copy the Mystique/Rogue head and do a half Morph half someone else. That jacketted Cyclops torso + arms from the Love Triangle 3-pack is giving me good ideas. Combine that with parts from Forge and all you'll need is a Morph head.

Picked up Vintage Wave 1 Wolverine from EB Games. They got a new shipment of these and coincidentally on “Clearance” Prices at $11.69Cdn each.

I hope they hold off doing Spiral until they greatly improve their multi-armed figures.

Found "80 Years" Cap at my Walmart. Nightcrawler arrived today from Pulse. I'll get Sinister and Retro Storm on Monday. Sinister not arriving the same day as Nightcrawler is a head scratcher because I ordered them the same time and they were shipped by Hasbro at the same time. Perhaps because Kurt is double-packed and Sinister isn't so I got Nightcrawler from the first batch. Just weird all around for a company to ship out items separately especially in this day and age when we're trying to use less packing materials 😛

Holocaust would never be called Holocaust in figure form. If he's part of the AoA wave, they'll have to rename him Nemesis again.

I think actual cloth instead of plastic-y one would've looked better. IMO this material only looks good in one to two arm positions. The rest, it just folds incredibly awkwardly onto itself.

I certainly get the self control part. I play the long game when it comes to ML's even if I only collect X-men but no Sinister and/or Nightcrawler for you? Probably won't be easy to find in the wild, especially Essex.

Since 616 Magneto and AOA Magneto share similar costumes I wouldn't be surprised if the Magneto from the "Family Matters" 3-pack will get rereleased in this wave with those two 616 heads and a third AOA head with the longer-braided hairstyle. No BAF part. He can be double-packed along with Weapon X. Probably won't be a popular opinion but since I never got the 3-pack, I would welcome it.

Marvel Select Juggernaut was my shelf's Juggernaut. Was never a fan of the BAF Juggernaut. I absolutely detest that head and am not a fan of the symmetrical hands. So glad I picked up the 80 Years two-pack as both Juggernaut and Colossus are great. So I would have to go with Juggernaut from the two-pack. I do pose him with the Cain Marko head with the battle-damaged helmet.

Was very excited for this figure but it's kind of a letdown. I never got the Jubilee wave Mohawk Storm but after playing around with this new Storm fig, I'm absolutely against "soft goods" capes. At least this material. I'm also not a fan of the gray wash on the hair. I wish they left it white.

Anyone in Canada still looking for Vintage Wave 1 (Wolvie, Pizza Spidey, Black Widow etc), they've apparently been showing up at EB Games for $12Cdn.

If comic Thanos is in the wave, he doesn't need to be the BAF. He can be the two-per-box with no BAF part. Heck give him two heads, multiple hands.
