  1. I would rather paint over my First Class Angel than waste time trying to get that damned thing. I just use Archangel. Warren started wearing that costume in the late teens of X-Factor until the end of the Fall of the Mutants when they all were wearing their "new duds" with the colors just swapped out.
  2. There are so many teams in that position too which drives me nuts. Only a few have been completed. At least with X-Factor we can use Archangel with the team but still that red x costume haunts me.
  3. Which was the worst selling set of all time, Alpha Flight 1, Alpha Flight 2, or Thor? Just curious. Hey now! Those were actually great sets! Thor was only disappointing with the Beta Ray Bill triple re-use (TRU, LCBS & here). Loki was incredible, Sif was a very welcome addition, and Thor was to be expected when the set is called Thor, but still a good figure. Alpha Flight, while a team I have no interest in whatsoever, is still well made, complete, and all new figures, no rereleases! It was really sad these didn't do better, because the principal behind them was one I'd love to see carried forward (Wrecking Crew!). Now it looks like we're not going to get any real team-builder 4-packs that don't have A-listers in them As for the Iron Man 3 AFX SDCC set, I figured it was better to get one in person than to pay shipping later. It's still a very unexciting set but it wasn't really made for us anyway. But an inclusion of "Dummy" the robot would have gone a loooong way to making this set better and would have fit in perfectly, and I'd have paid an extra $5 to have him in there. I think there is a bit of confusion. I personally loved the Alpha Flight sets and have 3 of each version and I am contemplating a 4th which is what made me think what a second I have never had an SDCC exclusive be so available to me before . Also, if Diamond got burned on these niche sets that would make them gun shy and explain the DP, Thunderbolts, and Wolvie Sets. Again, I love them but then again I am a grown man obsessed with getting a Crystal minimate.
  4. What?!? But then you are missing out on the start of the Phoenix saga, The Dark Phoenix Saga, and more. I never liked extended space runs but I did enjoy certain missions like Professor X is a Skrull.
  5. They are beautiful but sadly I really only wnat to binge buy Space Wolvie. I have a feeling I am going to be headed into the dangerzone.
  6. Which was the worst selling set of all time, Alpha Flight 1, Alpha Flight 2, or Thor? Just curious. Why don't we have a "Most negative post " competition ? Just curious. I can think of many candidates for 'worst selling sets of all time' which have eventually become 'most sought after of all time' . It was just a question because even though I loved the three sets, this is the first time I have seen an SDCC set not move. I know that there are several sets that picked up after time but a year later these three sets are discounted to the point that they are more than half off. I heard a guy went to SDCC, bought the Hall of Armor set, and came home with gonorrhea. Just sayin'. I told you that in confidence!
  7. Which was the worst selling set of all time, Alpha Flight 1, Alpha Flight 2, or Thor? Just curious.
  8. I'm going with Spider-man, Firestar, Iceman and the Green Goblin. You know just a group of friends that are Amazing.
  9. This is all shades of wrong. Anyway, maybe they could do a Thing and then pack in the Sharon chest piece since that is all that is missing to make her a she-thing. Do we know anything about the poll besides that the Poll will exist?
  10. BWHAHAHA, Also I wish they made this as a variation of Ben.
  11. I would actually think it would be Wolvie, Tony, Hawkeye, Mystique, and/or Emma. Actually, I think the list stops there. Past Namor, Scott, Tony, and Shaw, she wasnt' shown to have slept with anyone else if I recall (And I try to blot Tony Stark's trist from my mind, lol.) And in fact, I wouldnt' say Jean stole Scott from Maddie, since Jean never knew about her in X-Factor #1 when Scott left. There is an entire list out there somewhere. Not trying to slut shame the character but nobody calls my Jeanie a Harlot. I think that the whole Maddy situation looks worse on Scott than anyone else. I mean he did leave his wife and newborn for his dead ex-girlfriend who could have destroyed the universe so maybe it wasn't as bad as we all make it out to be. Claremont hated Scott because of it though. When did Petey sleep with Ms. Marvel? And which Ms. Marvel?
  12. amen. Just because she stole her clone's husband doesn't make her a harlot. They didn't even hook up until Maddy was dead. Besides Emma is the town bicycle. Namor, Scott, Tony Stark, Shaw, the list is going on and on.
  13. I was thinking of Spidey but this Wolverine guy has been everywhere so he might be a better option.
  14. I'm going to go out on a limb too and say, Captain Marvel, Thanos, Iron Man, The Yellow guy from the posters.
  15. Trust me, it is on the long list of offenses I have on him.
  16. That is my biggest issue with Giant Man and why I don't display him ever. He's too small. I really wish that now that time has passed they could revise the Max Mates statues and do him, the Sentinals, and Galactus again. I didn't get the statues then because when they were released I was in school and didn't have the cash. Now, I just refuse to spend 500 bucks on them for a scalper.
  17. Want none. Will buy is another story. My collect them all mentality will get me to buy the whole set but I will probably only buy and open Reaper (Just to fix him) and maybe another Pheonix 5 set just in case they also make Namor/Magik later I can display them together. To be honest this is the biggest whomp whomp set of th year behind the Starnge Tales Box Set for me.
  18. I was thinking the same thing but he looks a little off. That's why I think another version inbetween this piece and the current figures that exist.
  19. I don't agree (obviously) because even though Cap etc are strong they aren't Thor strong. The issue I think is with the two inch scale. Seeing Thor have the same size arms as Wasp is off putting to me. Perhaps he doesn't have to be as bulky as Hulk but maybe an inbetween.
  20. You forgot Harlot. lol Its a given with White Queen. The title just screams Harlot. who doesn't love a harlot anyway. Jean Grey.
  21. Now if only I knew what to do with it... Start here: http://minimatefactory.com/blog/?tag=decals Where do you buy the paper from? I looked on Lukes and couldn't find it.
  22. I'm all for a Bigger Thor. He's supposed to be able to go toe-to-toe with the Hulk and the Thing. Our Thor looks kinda weak.
