Wave 80 for Marvel's 80th? Anyone? Anyone?

Thanks, Zach. That won't keep me from adding it to my collection, of course, and it's probably more attractive to those who never got a chance at it before. 

As I recall the last one had metallic paint. I'd still love to see vac-metallized parts on some of these armors.

I have a Wave 6 Iron Man 'Stealth' alongside me as I type & although I had fond memories of it TBQH the design hasn't stood the test-of-time .

No metallic paint (MrPL) rather an odd combination of blue moulded body pieces & one hand ,flesh moulded head but white moulded plastic repulser hand & slip-on helmet ( subsequently over- painted blue & red). Even his belt seems to be a different colour blue.

When all these pieces are assembled the resulting Minimate isn't quite as good as I (we ?) might remember it ,especially as the blue helmet fails to cover the flesh head completely* .         * [ edit...evidently from the pictures just like the new version ]

So, surely........ 16 years later......the new version will be perfect :pray: .

Really liking this wave all-round. I do find it slightly amusing that we get this Spider Woman just as she changes to a new costume design in her new series. I like the new costume but i cant see it sticking (No spider pun intended)

SAME. Also Mockingbird has a new costume too but whatever. It's only been 4 years.

Since September is almost over, is wave 80 possibly coming out in October?  Also since Halloween is around the corner, will we possibly see a zombie box set? Since marvel has been or is about to release monster varient covers could we see a box set like Cyclops as Frankenstein or Storm as a Vampire?

Hey@DSTZach, Just to follow up. Any word on a release date for this set? I see some retailers listing September/October 2020.

I wonder if this will end up hitting in early November like the X-Factor wave did last year.  Without doing a ton of research, it seems these releases have been hitting pretty regularly in that late October, early November spot for a few years. 

I'm pretty sure that pesky pandemic has thrown all that history right out the window.
