Mirymate

You've been the most positive of everyone I've heard from on this, @Trekker 42, by a long ways. "Cheap" is the word I hear most other than "Sucked". Like they didn't bother paying for sets, effects, or writers.

Yep

What else do you possibly need?

Regardless, if someone could snag these CoC mates for me it'd be nice. If I miss them, it's not the end of the world, the end of minimates, the ruination of the line, my collection, or life itself. It's a pair of alt universe mates. A nice promo for both minimates and the game. Hope it brings more interest in both.

Go through their pockets and look for loose change.

Geez, @MisterPL, thank you so much for bringing that painful memory. Next time why don't you just gimme a paper cut and pour some lemon juice on it!

Spotted them before any of the Thor stuff has turned up.

Their Abomination design is a thing of beauty. Just sayin'

Primus... Every I get buried at work, this thread explodes. Some day this line will end. It will suck, but it will happen. Don't think we're there yet. This Chicken Little routine at every bump in the road gets old.

Actually like the CW design. Anybody that could help a brother out with both of these would be greatly appreciated.

Darn it, now we know what's in his pocket for NYCC.

@Freaqualizer It's not so much a matter of no costume as they are off comics model. MCU is hardly the only offender on that as only Rami's Sandman was "on model" and the less said about the "Amazing" era designs the better. (and then there's the X-Men franchise.... oy) But then, 90% of comics costumes look stupid translated into live action. (don't believe me, go visit the Marvel section of universal studios theme park) Malekith looks like a bad playing card warrior from Wonderland, not really threatening. Vulture... wrinkly guy in his mid 70's in green tights with wings under his arms. shudder. Stuff gets changed for Movies and TV. Races get changed, costumes get mangled, origins get mutilated. The question becomes is the core of the character recognizable? MCU's Vulture, and Rami's Doc Ock? Easily despite both their origins and costumes being changed. Electro and Whiplash? Not so much. And Abomination was very on model... just the Ultimate Universe Abomination, but w/o the tail. Most of the MCU is more based on the 1610 rather than the 616.

Morg's axe and Galactus boots eh? Have to see if finding that set will be cheaper than Dave's proposed axe.

Love that Abomination.

This. with Rick Jones as the BAF.

Curse? No. Death by Amazon far more likely.

@DSTZach them's some purtty pichures.

Believe it when I see it.

X-Babies? Pass. Little Big-Head men? Pass. Tigers and vehicles? Yes please.

Hmmm... maybe because aside from Stark, Loki is the most popular character with general audiences to have emerged from phase 1 by miles and they want to cash in on that general popularity?

The game is afoot!

Nope. Had to be a custom.

Now that is funny. And considering how bad they were probably a good thing. Go with the wacky Kenner stuff. (which I remember collecting back in the day) Much more fun.

I find BOTH good news!!

Yep. This is the Zach dubbed Great Stories wave that we spent soooooooo long guessing about. @BuffaloDelorean- I don't mind Vengance, and would like to see him in that "Supernatural" wave that @NerdyTrev was talking about.
