  1. I don't imagine this is an argument to the higher ups. Toys are toys and, no matter how you slice it, meant for a child audience.
  2. That wasn't always true. (Hail Ivan!)
  3. Thanks Zach! With that in mind, I would venture that the initial four (considering it's either S'ym or N'astirh, not both) in my above post retain their positions. Assuming the "All-New X-Men" are in reference to the GSX#1 Cockrum team, I would say that it's either Inferno-ized Storm (which would be strikingly similar to Goblin Queen) or another go at Outback Colossus and Zach's comment is a lapse in memory (sorry for the biting commentary Zach, but I'm trying to keep things open). Goblin Queen is a villain, either Limbo demon are a villain and Mister Sinister is a villain. That makes three, but considering that Magik would be in her dubious Darkchylde persona, it could be a fourth villain. I'm happy to get to play these games again, Zach! Thanks for always making it fun.
  4. Maybe we are hopeful, but I want to disagree with you. I think X-Men fans are plentiful enough and, especially with the high-profile revival of the animated show which is presumably adapting the storyline we receive minimates of (topical, anyone?), likely to be interested in some merchandising. Zach said it includes an obscure X-Villain. Is Goblin Queen obscure? I don't think she is. I feel like X-Men fans and even general Marvel comics lovers know about Goblin Queen. It might be safe to assume that the villain in question is either N'astirh or the easier-to-engineer S'ym. That in mind, I could see four of the five slots being filled thusly: Goblin Queen with baby Nathan. Mister Sinister S'ym/N'astirh Magik Who takes the last spot? You choose. It could be Colossus, or a Wolverine variant, or another New Mutant, maybe Havok as Goblin Prince if we're getting wild. But, we received Cyclops and Jean in the costumes they wore during this story not too long ago and they are still somewhat readily available. Hopeful? Yes. Unrealistic? No.
  5. Inferno and Mutant Massacre are clear choices, but they're both so big. It would be tough to whittle the characters down to five key players. Mutant Massacre seems even more difficult than Inferno. With that one, it can at least be kept to the main conflict with Goblin Queen and Limbo. Maybe a Limbo-armor Magik is in our midst? Packed with Goblin Queen and S'ym? My heart yearns for a set commemorating the Brood Saga, off the heels of the relatively recent Phoenix wave. Although, I recognize that it may not be "80s" enough. Sprite Deathbird Brood-Infected Wolverine Binary Maybe another Starjammer, Ch'od & Cr'reee? But, like I said, this storyline is the last gasp of the Cockrum era. Very 70's, not really 80s.
  6. I wish everyone well as the holiday season winds down! Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!
  7. Does this mean we can expect a run of the Life Foundation Symbiotes in the near future?
  8. But, Coldblood hasn't been made into a Legends figure 😕 Luke, is it a Toybiz Legends? Or a Hasbro Legends?
  9. Yeah – mine are also static. An interesting choice to mold them on.
  10. Excellent guess, but I'm not so sure if KGB spy equates to being a mercenary? I'll go with Bonebreaker – one of the Reavers who was featured in Logan.
  11. I love how it looks, protruding from the cliffs of Dimension X. Very inspired design.
  12. Well, there's Ajax who was buddies with the Hulk in the Pantheon days... is that who you're thinking of? Is that a completely separate Ajax?
  13. "became something else" Like chose another vocation? Or mutated? How recent was the movie?
  14. YES! I've definitely said this, but characters from the Archie Comics would be fantastic! Wrestling Turtles and Mighty Mutanimals!
  15. Yipee! This has definitely been my favorite of the new Hasbro lines, so I'm happy there is no "re-energonizing" needed!
  16. I'd like to see a few more of the main cast members of the '86 movie, as well as some classic G1 characters. Movie set #2 Kup Wreck-Gar Cyclonus Scourge Classic G1 series #4 Ironhide Wheeljack Skywarp Reflector Something like that would reenergize the line, I'd hope. Maybe another set of flat-colored, cartoon re-dos would help too. Oh! and a Unicron Vinimate!
  17. Luke, The Wrecking Crew are an absolute dream come true! I'm trying to get my Thunderball together, but I have no idea what the quartet of stickers on either end of the sheet are for! Can you clue us in so we can properly integrate them?
