Nessex Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Ronan and Iron Man will be in TRU 19. So - this is the place for conjecture, conclusion jumping .... and eventually news regarding TRU 19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostisfire Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) Heck yeah for the Ronan/IM 2-pack! Now, is 19 themed or hodgepodge? New stuff or classic stuff? Redos or new characters? Any overlap with 60? If it's themed, I'm leaning towards a GotG (please have the original guardians in there) or just a cosmic wave. It makes sense. Cap got a comic wave, Spidey and the X-Men got comic box sets, so why shouldn't Marvel's new hot property not get some comic love? Anyway, since I'm here, I might as well post my Guardians wave: LCS: Star-Lord (2008)/modern Gamora+Cosmo StarHawk/Vance Astro Charlie 27/Badoon Yondu/Badoon TRU: Martinex/Skrull or Phylla-Vel Gladiator/Modern Drax+modern Rocket IM/Ronan Adam Warlock (with Magus head)/Medusa Edited July 28, 2014 by Kostisfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Well, since 58 and 59 are X-Men themed, its a safe bet that if 60/19 share a theme, it won't be X-Men. My guess is Iron Man comic. Wave 36 was the last dedicated comic IM wave. However... It has been a while since we got a comic Spidey themed wave (Wave 43) or Thor wave (Wave 42). Hulk still has never had a comic themed wave. FF was fairly recent with Wave 48/Wave 15. Cap themed wave is definitely out with 54/55/18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I think there are enough loose threads right now for a hodgepodge wave. The timing would be good for a Cosmic wave as well. No matter how you look at it, we're already getting a new character and a new IM armor. Off to a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I hope it isn't a hodgepodge wave, with the success and overall awesomeness of Wave 54, I'd love to see DST jump on that and get another similarly planned wave out for another corner of the Marvel U.

Kostisfire Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I'm betting everything I've got to a cosmic/GotG wave. As I said, all of this year's movies got both movie and comic mates. Either in the form of waves or box sets. GotG is the only movie to not get any comic attention so I think that's a clue. Plus, Godkiller IM appeared first on GotG and Ronan is a cosmic character.

youbastards Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 It sounds like 60/19 have been in the planning stages for a while, and I don't think DST would have had enough faith in the GOTG brand to plan 2 entire waves of Minimates around them or other Cosmic Marvel characters before seeing concrete box office/Wave 57 sales numbers. If orders for Wave 57 have been strong, maybe we'll get a boxset next year, but right now I think you are putting the cart before the horse. I would love to be wrong though!

hellpop Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Personally, I'm not a fan of theme waves. It's nice if you like that theme, but if you don't you're SOL. And with the way Marvel comic waves are coming now, that basically means that every other corner of the MU doesn't get touched. Of course, all that goes out the window if they do a cosmic wave with a PROPER ROCKET RACCOON. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Marvel is giving the Guardians a huuuuge boost. An animated series is on the way and they announced GotG 2 at SDCC. Maybe DST had instructions to not release both a comic and movie wave together, but release some comic Guardians down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Chuck did say at C2E2 that they wanted to do a boxset of the Classic GOTG but Marvel wouldn't allow product for versions of the GOTG other than the Movie versions as to avoid any brand confusion. Although, that was before Marvel announced the new book with the classic characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zexion_Armando Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Brand confusion? Dear lord. Oh, this Star Lord wearing a mask is toooooooootally different from this other masked Star Lord.

Mystery Man Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Now that they're doing a Guardians classic-team book, it's be nice if we could get a boxed set and a few 2 packs to make the full team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stegron01 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Yeah we don't seem to suffer brand confusion over xmen. I personally really hope we get some classic guardians either in this wave or a box set - now seems the perfect time to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
