I think it would be rad if Marvelous News had an annual top 10. 😁Maybe that would invite more folks in?
Also, one thing I kinda think would be better are if reveals/products get divided into different threads (perhaps in the Figure Discussion Forum?) instead of discussing a cluster of things in the same thread. Like Daredevil 3-pack should have its own thread; Puff Adder wave should have its own thread; Iron Man retro, et cetera, et cetera. And then just update those threads accordingly with more news or reviews or images that relate. If that makes any sense.

You don’t believe that Target and Walmart are only getting one exclusive each next year, though, right? Or that Walgreens and Amazon will get none? There are a lot of possibilities here. Among them, Rektangular added some speculation to the list, he consolidated info from a second source, he got some information wrong, etc. It’s true that the annual anniversary line seems always to feature exactly ten offerings, and two to three of them are usually exclusives, so it’s possible his list had eight, but then he got info about the two exclusives separately, or that he combined the eight-figure list with another rumour he had heard to make some educated guesses.
His track record over the last few years is sloppy as hell. He got lucky this year and got the annual distributor preorder dump before anyone else, but his record shows that he will discuss unvetted rumours just as readily as more reliable ones. The list is clearly based on good info, and I expect most (if not all) of it to be true, but that doesn’t mean it’s 100% based on that info, and it certainly doesn’t mean it’s 100% comprehensive. In years past, there have even been entire waves that didn’t appear on the distributor preorder list (like the Thor BAF wave), that ended up just popping up out of nowhere. His list already didn’t account for Ronan or the X-Men retro wave (the latter of which appeared on the previous year’s list, which would explain his not having it).
Ah I see what you’re saying now. I don’t believe the list contains all of what’s in store for 2023, nor do I think those 2 are the only exclusives. I just thought you were saying that the leaked list didn’t have any exclusives on it, that’s all. I don’t follow or know anything about rektangular other than what gets shared here at marvelous so I appreciate the insight.

@Benn
But the list includes a Target exclusive Black Widow and a Walmart exclusive Bucky Cap.0 -

While I do like the colors here, the better War Machine is the Iron Man Retro series one.
Agreed. This one looks like it’ll pair well with the Modular IM from the build-a-bear wave.

Is the possibilty of an MCU wave reveal out of the question? Quantumania for example? I'd like to see some of that
I was wondering that as well. If not the MCU figures, maybe the comic ones🤷♂️

I may have been a little hard on it. Feel like I should’ve expected such from Drax and Mantis as I’ve never really liked their MCU counterparts. It was silly though, that’s for sure. My lady enjoyed it 🤷♂️. I think my favorite part was Nebula’s last line.

Didn’t realize it was coming out that soon. Wakanda Forever should be on D+ by then, yea?

Cool, cool. I can’t say I’m sold on the training suit 3packs but looking forward to seeing how the rest of them turn out. And official Blob info would be groovy.
Excited to see more of the comic based leaks (especially Avengers stuff) but I am stoked for outback Rogue. Hope she looks great.

Wish the blue was silver or white with a blue shading or something instead but it still looks pretty neat anyhow. May be one of those figures that I’ll scoop up in a year or 2 after it releases.

Funny how the set went back in stock after the sale ended 🙄
Not gonna sweat over it as I’m betting it’ll see more price drops down the road.

The packaging is so rad that I can’t get myself to bust him out of it.

Ha ya I gotta agree, it was hella lame.

There are some good Golden Age picks on your list, and they're definitely obscure. I would love to see them do a Golden Age wave or box set. Its criminal that we've yet to see The Human Torch, Sub-Mariner or Captain America in their first appearance forms yet.
I'd add to that, Blazing Skull, Destroyer, original Vision, and Armless Tiger Man.
Armless Tiger Man?! I had to look that one up. Gonna have to brush up on him. Definitely interested! 😄

Well all be darn, the MOJOWORLD set is part of the Pulse sale now.

I certainly like where everyone’s heads are at on the matter. I tried leaning toward who I found to be more obscure as I got further down the list. Otherwise, I would’ve went with all Avengers &/or X-Men members from the Bronze Age 😁. I feel like the rate for classic, obscure heroes is so low.

Down for whatever but I wanna see something from the Avengers Anniversary this time.

This was/is a huge want for myself in the Spidey category. Always imagined him as a build-a-figure so I was hella surprised to see him come out differently. The whole set is keeping him away from me though 😭

Yeh I’ll take my chances of finding this one on the aftermarket once the prices deflate.

I wouldn’t say that this 3pack DD is disappointing; it just doesn’t match the build when I think of the character. He has had different physiques throughout comics so I reckon it just comes down to preference. The Vulcan buck would make for a good classic version as he was a bit more jacked in those times, I feel like. If anything, I’m glad they didn’t do that here because I have zero interest in the 2 figures that he’s packed with. Plus, I wouldn’t really call this a classic deco anyway.
As for retro Modular, mine will be showing up tomorrow. #Woohoo!

This is my preferred costume so I’m definitely glad to get at least 1. Would like to figure out something to make the gold deco pop some more though.
