Scorpion Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) I think we need some villians that they actually fought, maybe as a toy r us exclusive, like rampage , with angry face bobby drake,darkstar and iceman, and spiderman and swarm that would be awesome but we will probably never see this happen.

Mystery Man Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Though not high on my list of "Hope To See's", I think a Swarm mate would be pretty keen. Lucky for me that I've got plenty of Godzilla toys from Japan to re-enact this: http://www.comic.comics.ctcii.com/MARVEL%20Godzilla%203.jpg I hope to score one of these sets super fast online when they hit at the convention so I can post some neat pics.

Is that a godzilla issue with the champions as a guest star because ,I bought the two champions graphic novels and that issue was not in it.

The only place that I know of that it's been reprinted is in the done-in-volume of Essential Godzilla put out a few years ago by Marvel.

MinimateEspo25 Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Marvel no longer has the rights to Godzilla so that's why you won't find it in the Champions trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

battlecat Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Looking good! Although Radioactive Man seems to have lost his face (it can't be that dark under his mask, doesn't he glow?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamsm8 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) He DOES appear to have two tiny eyes, though, near the bottom of his face block. I'm a little disappointed that Normans vest is still that nasty green colour. But other than that, I am thoroughly excited! Question - how come the Champions box doesn't have the SDCC logo?

MINI_MYTE Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Nice find! SDCC can't get here fast enough. Look like Penance comes with a set of bare arms. I guess we get to see Robbie Baldwin sans costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trekker 42 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) Champions looks good... And oddly enough my favorite is Ghost Rider. His skull... So cool looking. Better than the rest of the GRs by far. Classic look I think. And Angel comes next, then Herc, then Widow. I want to see Widow's accessories though. I hope she's loaded like Punisher or Terminator. Tbolts though, I can do without. Sad that I don't like them. I used to love the comic. Until they went to Dark Avengers and Tbolts changed their lineup.

Mirymate Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I want to see Widow's accessories though. I hope she's loaded like Punisher or Terminator. I doubt she'll have anything more than the Widow's bite bracelets. This is late 70's Tasha, no guns. In fact 616 Widow didn't start breaking out the extra hardware until the last few years when the Ultimates version did. (another unfortunate case of the 1610 bleeding into the 616.)

karamazov80 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Damn those Champions are beautiful. I need a whole bunch of those Angels and Ghost Riders. every american has the right to bare arms!

Mystery Man Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I'll buy 3 Champions sets. I'm CHAMPING at the bit for them. 2 brand new, classic characters along with 2 very welcome re-releases. It's a big ol' win and I hope I can get one on eBay sooner rather than later when SDCC hits. Unless anybody wants to help me out, here, that is?

BrobotC Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) i just hope angels wings wont be like the classic wasp's wings............... INCREDILY HARDTO TAKE OFF Edited June 12, 2009 by clayface1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 i just hope angels wings wont be like the classic wasp's wings............... INCREDILY HARDTO TAKE OFF Looks like they are using the same back piece they did with Archangel, so removing the wings from the back piece is going to be kinda irrelevant to removing the wings from the figure.

Marquis de Carabas Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Tbolts though, I can do without. Sad that I don't like them. I used to love the comic. Until they went to Dark Avengers and Tbolts changed their lineup. yeah, I stopped digging the comic when they added bullseye and venom, etc... but I am loving the look of the guys in the box set, so i'll be picking this one up. although I still want my baron zemo 'mate and the champions box set. omg.
