I guess congrats are in order to the eight people worldwide who actually plan on buying one...

I'm actually REALLY annoyed, here. This should have been a Force Works wave. I guess I'm never getting my Century figure, because this was the ONLY way it was ever going to happen.

I hated Hydra Cap. Didn't like the costume. Didn't like Secret Empire. Didn't like Cap being evil. Now, with that era being over, I can appreciate it more. That Cap figure is a must-have.

Now they gotta do Ghost Rider and Hulk in matching costumes.

Definitely liking that Marvel vs. Capcom Cable.

Very welcome surprise. Didn't expect these books to ever see the light of day again. Hopefully this leads to new collaborations between DC and Marvel. I'd kill to see a JLA/Avengers sequel. Bonus points if it's actually canon.

Now Hoping again this is where we get to see Retro Iron Man & Ghost Rider waves! and Marrina.
🤔
If that means we could possibly see a wave based on 90's Iron Man/Force Works, I'd go crazy. I can't even express how much I need a Force Works U.S.Agent and Century figure in my life.

Too bad it's just a flashback. We've still lost both of these classic characters.

That's going to be a disappointment if true. I really don't care for the What If...? animation style.
What the hell happened to Marvel? Their 90's animation was great. Is there some kind of mandate stating that all of their current animation must look like #$##? Their last decent animation products were Avengers: EMH and Wolverine & The X-Men. Everything that's come after has looked like ass. Even DC still does decent animation. What If's animation looks like vomit. I miss the old days.

because she is popular. I'm tired of people who keep saying she is not. If she wasn't they wouldn't be pushing her. Marvel is all about money. If she wasn't selling, they wouldn't keep pushing her.
I'm sorry, but, no. If she was as popular as they want us to believe she is, she would be able to sustain her own ongoing book. She can't. That's why they've resorted to the mini-series model with Kamala. If it's a planned five-issue run, it can't be cancelled the way it could if it were an ongoing series, and that way they don't have to worry about losing face, or admitting that the character isn't as popular as they're telling us she is.

Now that she's a mutant, I wish they'd forget about her and let her fade into the background, like Pixie, or Beak. She's obviously not interesting enough to support her own ongoing series, so why do they feel the need to push her so hard towards the readers? Having the publishers running around screaming "She's popular! She's popular!" doesn't actually make her popular. It's kinda like when a Facebook group I used to frequent tried to make Darkhawk popular a couple years back. They pushed so hard that they were actually able to ironically drive up the price of his #1 from the early 90's, at least temporarily.

I imagine this will just make them double-down on her role as Madame Web in the comics, tbh.
I really hope not. Her role as Madame Web has been such a complete waste. It's always the same damn thing. She shows up, delivers an ominous message to Peter about the 'Web of Life' being in danger. She then stands around and does NOTHING while the 374 other Spider-characters go off on a mission. She shows up at the end: "You saved the Web of Life! Good job!". Rinse and repeat. She was SO much more interesting as an Avenger/Force Works character. So, I really hope you're wrong. I'm thinking that they'll believe that the comic readers are going to want to see the original Madame Web, even if it means de-aging her, kinda like what they did with Agatha Harkness. This would free Julia up to be a Spider-Woman-type character again in the comics. Or, it could end up not even affecting the comics, as this is a non-MCU production. Who knows? I don't remember Venom, Morbius, etc. getting any extra buzz in the comics when their solo films came out. This could easily play out the same way.

The ONLY reason I'm even kinda interested in this movie is because we're getting a live action Julia Carpenter Spider-Woman. She is one of my favorite characters, and she's been largely ignored in the comic books for several decades. It would be nice just this once if movie/comic book synergy actually worked out in my favor, and they gave Julia a more prominent role in the comics. I wish they'd bring the original Madame Web back, and let Julia go back to being Spider-Woman/Arachne. It would be great to see her as an Avenger again.

The MCU stuff is doubly frustrating. The boxes are hideous and they are releasing THAT Iron Man and Iron Spider-Man AGAIN?!?
Right? How the hell many times are they gonna re-release basic MCU figures like Iron Man and Spidey? They weren't that exciting the first time around, but THIS is just beyond redundant. Whatever, I stay away from MCU figures, anyway. They're just boring, watered down designs with ugly facial sculpts. It's like they're intentionally designed to be ugly. I'll take comic figures any day over MCU.

But, lemme guess...they're gonna use the wings as an excuse to justify doubling the retail prices on Falcon-Cap and Angel...

I'm surprised it took them this long to do Hydra Cap. Definitely getting him. And Falcon Cap, with wings and his own non-Steve shield. Angel is also a must have.

I've been hoping for Cyclops and Jean. Now I won't have to give in and open the Love Triangle three-pack.

It would be great once this is all over with if they could put Beast back on the Avengers, along with Wonder Man. Give him some time to readjust and clear his head before going back to the X-Men (if they'd even have him back).

It doesn't look amazing. BUT...Julia Carpenter...in costume. That's worth the ticket price by itself.

I was never able to snag a Walgreens Moon Knight, so I'm in for this one. Seems REALLY soon for an Amazing Fantasy Spidey re-release, though.

New X-Men 97 "War" Promotional Clip Teases Captian America

Okay, here's what I want: Avengers '98. Same animation as we have here, but with a series based on the Busiek/Perez Avengers run. I want the same costumes as we got during that run. I wanna see a lineup consisting of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Hawkeye, Wonder Man, and Ms. Marvel (the REAL one). They could absolutely do it, if they wanted to. And the ratings would probably go through the roof. They could top Avengers: EMH, if they made the effort.
