Pete Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 This is me trying to decipher the clues and this is what I've come up with... I think these are in: Hydro Armor Iron Man Bulked up grey hulk Johnny Storm(Transforming) Luke Cage Iron Fist So 3 others to guess? Well 2 would have been released in best of waves before (and not villains), so there'll be variants of 2 of these: Spiderman Wolverine Captain America Thor Deadpool Thing Dare Devil Punisher Mr Fantastic So 1 other good 'guy' not yet suggested? Any closer or am I worse off Zach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkerbean Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Team x wolverine would be cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) Team x wolverine would be coolThat would make sense, as some characters were featured in the wave 50 poll.Who else featured...? Warewolf Cap (Transforming!) Mutated Thing Commander Steve Rodgers Edited February 15, 2014 by Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Just to remind people some of the clues: -No villians -No babes -No new characters -4 characters were in the previous Best of waves -No Ultimates -One transforming character -Not short-term looks There were others, but it's hard to track down all Zach's posts over the last 4-5 pages. Among characters that have been guessed, I suggested Namor and Black Panther, among others, early on and was told I was 0/8, so you can eliminate them. Another Hulk seems likely to be the transforming one; I'd think Grey Hulk is most likely, but I could also see them doing Rulk. I'd be surprised if Iron Man is Hydro Armor, since that's a short-term look. Black Spidey seems likely to me too. Again, I will throw this out: pair him with an unflaming Johnny Storm and throw a bag with eyeholes in there. Greatest set ever right there.

pappymojo Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Is Venom a villain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Gaijin Wolverine? I think we've probably had enough of him amongst the long term collectors, but he's a pretty bankable character and it's a reasonably well known look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 There you have it, based on the clues, I'll finally be getting my genis-vell, right? ....... Anyone, anyone, ......... time to go shovel some snow. In all honesty, I'm pretty excited for this best of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Is Venom a villain?Technically, yes and no.In the contexts of the best of waves... to appeal to casual fans, I'd say yes. That is, providing he's not Agent Venom. Just to remind people some of the clues: -No villians -No babes -No new characters -4 characters were in the previous Best of waves -No Ultimates -One transforming character -Not short-term looks There were others, but it's hard to track down all Zach's posts over the last 4-5 pages. Among characters that have been guessed, I suggested Namor and Black Panther, among others, early on and was told I was 0/8, so you can eliminate them.

I'd be surprised if Iron Man is Hydro Armor, since that's a short-term look. Black Spidey seems likely to me too. Again, I will throw this out: pair him with an unflaming Johnny Storm and throw a bag with eyeholes in there. Greatest set ever right there. In addition to the above clues... How many did I get Zach? Two. And one other is planned elsewhere.Hmmm... 2 of these in 'Best Of 3' and 1 planned elsewhere.Future Foundation Susan Storm Superior Spiderman with the arms backpack DOFP Wolverine Now Cyclops Classic Hawkeye Beast Iceman Hydro Armor Iron Man Bulked up Grey Hulk Bulked up Apocalypse Also... one of these is right: Human Torch War Machine Cyclops Magneto Carnage Ben Reilly~Scarlet Hawkeye Ultron And one 2-pack is correct: Blue/gold cyclops-Ghost Rider Namor-Black Panther Thanos-Sue Storm Apocalypse-Gambit Abomination/Hulk of some sort Scarlet Spider/Hobgoblin Luke Cage/Iron Fist (white outfit) Beast/Iceman Human Torch/Mole Man Lizard/Black suit Spiderman Professor X/Juggernaut Antman/Wasp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) My guesses... US Agent Savage Grey Hulk Team X Wolverine Iron Man 2020 Hawkeye Vision Power Man Iron Fist Edited February 15, 2014 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 If I had to say all eight in pack order... I'd go with: Hydro Armor Iron Man & Commander Rogers Grey Hulk & Team-X Wolverine Johnny Storm & Symbiote Costume Spiderman Luke Cage & Iron Fist If Zach goes quiet on us, we're very close!

winkerbean Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I don't think we'll get commander Rogers as DST already gave us the parts to make him for that purpose with Nick Fury Jnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 4/8 have been in Best Of already? That kind of sours my milk, lol. I would say make it 2, so that other characters can shine for a little. But if its alt looks and stuff, I guess I can grin and bear it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Also, Zach and Chuck both made it VERY clear in the past that they don't see Commander Rogers as a Cap variant; likewise Peter Parker in a FF costume with a bag over his head as a Spidey variant. I doubt very much that they would change their stance for a wave designed to attract new and casual buyers. How about... my long dreamed TALKING ANIMAL WAVE! -Spider-Ham/ Captain Americat -Transforming Hulk-Bunny/ Iron Mouse -Rocket Raccoon (Mignola costume!)/Frog Thor -Howard the Duck/ Zabu (who doesn't talk, but give me a break here) Please note that I would have included Ducktor Doom instead of Iron Mouse, but Zach already said no villains....

bigvis497 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I'm hoping neither best of repeat is Venom or Deadpool. Which probably means we'll see both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 id guess the best of repeats would be: Ironman Spiderman Hulk Wolverine they're the most bankable characters as for their looks, do you guys think Godkiller Ironman was too short lived? Grey Hulk seems like a no brainer I'd love a helmeted weapon x or team x Wolverine Updated Iron Spidey or Superior with arms would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Either helmeted Weapon X Wolverine or Team X Wolverine would both be musts for me. Paired with NOW Cyclops ftw There is no Hulk I can think of that I'd need or even really want, but that doesn't mean I can't be surprised. Maybe an updated Rulk with Thunderbolts Agent Venom. There are a handful of Iron Man armors I'd get on board for, but Hulkbuster is top of the list. I could also get behind a War Machine with some crazy new accessories. Maybe together? And yeah, symbiote spider man with human torch makes sense. Maybe i'd get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 YB and Pete are getting close! No Wolverine. No Deadpool. No Venom. I said one transforming figure, but with alt looks, there are really four transforming figures, kinda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 So, safe to assume Power Man & Iron Fist, and Grey Hulk, I think. Hawkeye seems really likely to me; good luck improving on the Disney Store one. Torch and Black Suit Spidey also seem like a good candidate, and I'm SOOOOOO hoping that "alternate looks" means "Bag Head". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Zach feel free not to answer this, but, is there a good amount of new tooling in this wave? or is it mainly reuses (not that reuses are bad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 NOW Cyclops/USAgent Savage Grey Hulk/Hawkeye Human Torch/Symbiote Spider-Man Power Man/Iron Fist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I love that Weapon X is being thrown around.... but if the past two waves are anything to go by, there isn't usually any new sculpting and i don't think i've seen a piece in DST's parts back that would make a good VR Helmet for logan.

stegron01 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 No wolverine, deadpool and venom - I'm liking the sound of this wave more and more! lol As for the final personnel, like others have said I'm thinking luke cage, iron fist, grey hulk and hawkeye look very likely at this point. Also spiderman (probably black) and some sort of iron man (maybe hydro) look odds on too. That leaves one more "already made in a best of wave figure" which I'm thinking maybe a thor (about time we got one with Donald blake parts) as he just had a movie and we have just had a cap wave, and one "new" best of figure, which it seems the smart money puts on human torch - though personally I'm still rooting for classic falcon to take advantage of his movie/cartoon appearances!
