  1. Very nicely done! That was a fun run, and it would be nice to see DST revisit it.
  2. Yeah, you can drop it in boiling water for a minute, safely pull it out, and dunk it in cold while holding the new form/shape in place. Usually works.
  3. I picked up the Wolverine/Magneto set yesterday. These are both great 'mates! In such a cool wave, with characters like Mojo and Spiral, sometimes it's the simple designs that really pop.
  4. Great pics! I really like that weapon x one especially.
  5. Oh man, that's perfect! Thanks!
  6. Kraglin was great. I've got an extra Yondu from Vol 1, but I haven't found the right head yet. It's killing me.
  7. If Quicksilver gets made in the green outfit, I'd love to see the pixie feet used on Robin, Deadman, etc. And a new hair piece. I don't think any Quicksilver to date has had the perfect hair he deserves.
  8. I feel like DST putting the best brown Wolverine to date in wave 23 is a great joke.

    wave 74

    My problem with Bendis is the he can't write characters, plural, just one character, singular, and whatever Character he's writing just melds into that character that he writes. I've cancelled most of my DC and Marvel pull list these days. This thread is good, though, and I give it at least two thumbs up.

    wave 74

    Fingers crossed, fingers crossed, fingers crossed.
  11. I saw the movie last night (loved it!), And I think DST did a great job on this wave. I can't blame them for reference pics they got, but I would have preferred Ayesha to have been in a different costume. The jockey suit was not her most memorable look. Kraglin would have been great to get, but he should be an easy QC. Ravager army builders and the Ravager captains would have been cool, but not at the expense of what we got.

    wave 74

    2008 GotG and 90's X-Factor are at the top of my want list. It may not be likely, but I wish that DST would strike while the iron is hot as far as the Guardians go. Kost I'm list is pretty perfect.
  13. Is Magento's helmet a new sculpt or a reuse of Onslaught's? Doesn't really matter, I need that Magneto either way.
  14. Great points, BD. Another big difference between the Avengers and the X-Men (and again, Wolverine is the exception) is that the Avengers are largely popular characters with their own rich legacies. Cap, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk- the popular, heaviest hitters- all can and have anchored their own waves and/or boxsets. And many supporting Avengers and villains can fit nicely into those characters' lineups. Adding in an obscure, never-requested (?) character like Blizzard to take up not one but two slots is an odd choice. Meanwhile, the X-Men have a huge cast, but aside from Wolverine, I don't think about character could really anchor a wave. Ok, fine, Deadpool, but if the wave is 50% one character, I don't know if that's really a win.
  15. Yeah, on the other hand, DD already has the market on headscarves.
  16. He doesn't necessarily need THE costume, but I think he should have some kind of signature look. Some of the promotional materials show him wearing a green hoodie partially unzipped to reveal the tattoo. I think that works.
  17. It's kind of annoying that they're stealing the name, but on the other hand, it works for this team. They're gonna do some defending after all. It's great to see another hallway fight. Some people might think it's becoming a cliche for Marvel Netflix, but I actually like it.
  18. That's what I thought. Thanks. Heinous mentioned five months, and I was suddenly worried that it had been pushed to October. Now some wishlisting: Luke Cage- yellow short sleeved t-shirt with slip over hoodie piece (this time with the hood yellow instead of gold) and arms. Matt Murdock- stupid scarf pirate Elektra- I like that new look Alexandra Jessica Jones- pretty much the same as the first one, but this time with a black shirt and that scarf Iron Fist- hopefully he dons some kind of costumed look, but at least an outfit that he actually does some fighting in Daredevil- it's kind of lame that DST has not mass-released basic DD in his red costume. We got the black clothes in the Season 1 set and a battle damaged late Season 1/early Season 2 look in the Season 2 set. The red costume, undamaged, was only released in the SDCC set. Jeri Hogarth, Colleen, Misty, Claire, Trish, Foggy, and Stick could fill in some spots. These shows have some rich back ground characters.
  19. Looks great. DD, Jessica, and Luke now have their "looks", but I'm hoping Iron Fist gets some kind of signature look as well. This comes out in August, right?
  20. That packaging really stands out. Looks great. Kind of assumed you were like the rest of us and not permanently plugged in and on the job. Just thought your response was kinda funny.
  21. Yeah, but I'm not sure they would revisit an outstanding look.
  22. I finally got the Luke Cage and DD season 2 sets. Overall, I like them. I wish that DD had come with an undamaged version of that mask. That seems like a missed opportunity. Otherwise, that's a great set. I probably would have preferred Shades or Diamondback over Mariah Dilliard in the LC set. As it is, this set feels like part 1 of the series. I know we won't see it, but a part 2 set with Diamondback (with power glove and big ass gun), Shades, Luke with grey hoodie and jeans (and chest block, this guy's huge), and Claire would be something I'm in to. Similarly, I'd love to see another Iron Fist set with Danny and Colleen in their black outfits, Madame Gao, and either Davos or Bakuto.
