Yes!!! My Transformation Venom minimate will be going to the extras bin here then sometime next week. Now if we could get updated Hobgoblin and Sandman since of the previously already made Spidey villains, I don't have either of them.

Is it wrong of me to hope for a better version of the 90s Modular Armor in minimate form or maybe a Pepper as Rescue? Or even classic Whirlwind?

Sasquatch's minimate figure also gives me an idea of how maybe they could do a Strong Guy minimate if they ever do X-Factor *hint, hint*

Just got my order in the mail yesterday afternoon from Luke. Alpha Flight is awesome. Aurora definitely has issues with her black hair piece, but I managed to get it on there after a little work. Having the main members of Alpha Flight in any kind of toy form like this is awesome. The minimates toy line has really given me a lot of teams and characters I've wanted to get in some kind of figure form in the past few years. Things other toy companies have never done before.

Onslaught and Songbird... Given how we got an entire wave devoted to the Outback X-Men, I think it'd be kind of cool to see a whole wave devoted to things around Onslaught. Like the Heroes Reborn Iron Man, or the adamantium-less Wolverine where he looked like a caveman and stuff...

Iceman is one of those mates that doesn't really look out of place compared to newer ones, but man would he be great with the newer bases and snap-ons. I'm thinking something like the second ToyBiz sculpt we got in the 90's based on JRJR's art at the time. I'd like an Age of Apocalypse Iceman with ice based stuff if possible...

Maybe they'll pull a switcheroo and it'll be The Wolverine first just because we assume things.

Yeah, I know. Nothing compared to the evil that is Mattel. Just a little annoyed as I was looking forward to the set coming this week given how crappy this week has been (working retail of any kind near the holidays sucks).

Poor afx. 10/24 to 11/7 to 11/14 to 11/21. Delayed shipment my ass. This is all about trying to make as many of their own sales as possible. Tch. Delayed again!? I ordered yesterday all excited to get these guys this week off Luke's (as mentioned in the post above from earlier) I think they're milking it for their own gain as well sha_ckwave. Never have I recalled a minimate set being delayed week, after week, after week like this before. Month delays, sure, but this delaying every week thing... Gotta say, it's great Luke is around because AFX is not a company I think I like...like Mattel level not like.

Just pre-ordered the second set off Luke's since I live in the same state he does, so I usually get the package the day after I order. XD Pumped to get the set as I'm still in awe we even got Alpha Flight finally in MM form. Now Zach...could we maybe get a Power Pack 4-pack maybe? Please? ^_^

My big wonder is as someone pointed out... How will they do Episodes 7, 8, and 9? All the actors are old big time. Are they going to recast them? Are they going to do a major timeskip ahead to explain things, and if so...will they use stuff done in the Expanded Universe novels that all take place after Episode 6? You know... Han and Leia's kids, Mara Jade? Clone Emperor? Etc, etc, etc....

Wouldn't the Polaris, Quicksilver, and Multiple Man just be redo's though? The 90's team had a very distinct look that hasn't been made yet. I guess you're right about Quicksilver, but that wasn't a very good 'mate to begin with, so I wouldn't complain about an update. I'm never one to complain about redos of characters in distinctly different looks or worthy updates. And 90's X-Factor is my Number 1 want as far as teams go. 90s X-Factor would be cool to see to complete the 90s stuff...though still need a 90s Warpath if possible to complete X-Force as well...

Dang it. Now I want official Goonies Minimates after seeing these. ...Well, that and Big Trouble in Little China would be cool, too.

Wonder if it was so popular a wave because it was all X-Men focused...the many options with Colossus and Dazzler alone..or there were a lot of people wanting the Outback X-Men team really badly. The Colossus was one I was seriously waiting for to complete the 90s Blue/Gold teams (though I would still like to see 90s Forge and Banshee) and at the same time I get all of the Outback team in one swoop is an added bonus. The Brood is also an amazing example of a great troop builder. I would like another one, but not feeling like buying more Wolverines even though the one I got has bad eyes on his mask, which seems to be a thing among all of them.

Not sure if you saw this in the other thread... Crappier angle, but definitely better lit. Is that a custom made Warpath!? I wants one.

Rhino is awesome and finally gives many of us a reason to store away the original figure. Vindicator and Box are welcome additions to the Alpha Flight team...now give me the second boxset! Updated Havok is pretty cool. Storm reminds me of the old Toybiz figure from the X-Men toyline...and of course adding to the Outback team. In terms of Iron Man though... I wish they'd revisit the Modular Armor again for a couple reasons... It's one of his cooler looking armors. It's featured quite a bit in the Marvel video games at the time Tony wore it (Marvel vs. Capcom, Marvel Super Heroes). And it was the armor he wore in the 90s cartoon so of course my being a fan of all the 90s Marvel toon stuff I want a better version of him.

Found the entire wave here at TRU in Minnesota this morning. Even though I got all of them except the Spidey/Cap set coming in the mail, I bought extras for maybe others in need and stuff...

Package shipped yesterday! XD Can't wait between these and the wave 47 minimates. Updated Rhino, Havok and Storm...awesome.

Placed my order for this wave this morning and my TRU ones are on the way as well. XD Outback team all in one like this is so awesome! That and Colossus also doubling for 90s X-Men (I bought two for this very reason).

You saw it too!? O_O

Fear Itself Juggernaut actually as Colossus became the new 'Juggernaut' due to Cain becoming this. Another Wolverine boxset? And still no Weapon X or even the after having his metal torn from his bones look? Aw....

At least a new Carnage, Chameleon, and Sandman since I'm missing those three myself.

I made a topic talking about the Power Pack a while back on here. I was reading the Gurihuri drawn ones that have been put out in the past few years and would love to see the kids made into Minimates...though maybe somehow made to actually be kids compared to everyone else somehow.

Got the one set with Odin yesterday... Odin is great. Iron Man is a cool armor ro add to the armory. Hawkeye looks good, though his mask seems to sit a bit high on his head. And Spidey... I've noticed an issue with Spidey Minimates as of late...the eyes are off-centered on the masks. Where the eyes should be usually in right in the center where the webbing pattern started out, but in the last few Spidey figures I've gotten, the eyes are off to the side.

DO....WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT!!! Morbius and Werewolf by Night for sure. More Blade and Doc Strange are always welcome as well. Now if a modern version of Midnight Sons comes out later on to add to this that will things even more EPIC.
