Hulk seems pretty unnecessary for this movie, but he makes a good stand-in for non-gladiator Ragnarok Hulk. I'm less excited for the second wave than I was for the first, since I thought most of these characters were underused, but I never got an MCU Falcon and Ebony Maw was one of the highlights of the movie for me.

Which versions of the comic Guardians would those be? The 2008 DnA team seems to be popular here, but Star-Lord, for example, isn't really recognisable as his movie counterpart. I think if/when we get the comic GotG they're likely to be the same movie-inspired versions as the Marvel Selects, with a few villains and supporting characters mixed in. As for a third Greatest Hits assortment, I think even without considering the returning Fantastic Four there's enough material for a wave: Black Widow & War Machine (completes the founding MCU Avengers, longtime MCU Avenger who hasn't had a comic 'mate in a while) Doctor Strange & Black Panther (MCU solo movies and have older or hard to find comic figures) Black/Yellow Wasp & Ms. Marvel (new MCU hero and completes the founding comic Avengers, upcoming MCU solo movie) 90's Cyclops & Magneto (popular X-characters with expensive figures)

That's odd, I sent an email last Thursday and got a reply today so I'm not sure why it would take longer than that.

Is it someone who's been officially confirmed for the movie? If they're costumed, but it isn't Janet or Goliath I can't think who it would be. Maybe Hank, or a variant of Hope or Scott? DST's Instagram says these will be revealed soon, so hopefully we won't have to wait too long.

Not unless the drum set counts as a costume...

If it's not her, Fishburne Goliath (maybe from a flashback?) seems like a reasonable option.

I think the dropship is looking pretty unlikely, but it would be nice if there could be at least one more mixed wave with clean Bishop and Ferro. I'm interested in the Blue Xeno/Ron Perlman set for those reasons alone, but it isn't a priority for me.

After seeing the movie, I broke down and got Iron Spider/Hulk, from my LCS. I like this Hulk more than I was expecting, but one of Spidey's extra legs is missing its gold paint.

I'm pretty sure I saw in the trailer, which isn't exactly surprising but it's my guess for the fourth figure.

Hopefully soon, now that Infinity War's been released. Hasbro and Funko have shown their product, so I'm not sure what the delay would be.

I don't see why the MCU would be rebooted any time soon. Guardians of the Galaxy and Black Panther have shown that Marvel movies don't need the big four to be massively successful, and if the Fox deal goes through they'll have two new major groups to draw popular characters from. I'd be fine with, say, Bucky becoming Cap when Evans has had enough, but a reboot seems completely unnecessary.

Besides powered-up Thor and Wanda I can't think of anything major. I understand why DST didn't make another Vision, but seeing as he has a bigger role than even Captain America his absence is conspicuous.

That makes sense, I suppose. And didn't Black Panther die in the snap? I guess I could be misremembering.

I didn't like it as much as everyone else seems to have liked it, but it was a fun movie. Keeping the original Avengers around makes sense, but I'm more curious as to why War Machine, Rocket, and Nebula weren't turned to dust.

I thought Black Panther was supposed to have exposed eyes? I don't mind, since I didn't get anything for his movie and I like this design better. If my LCS orders this wave, I'll get the Cap and Panther packs, but if not Cap is the only one I really need. Hopefully this is good news for TRU 26.

They didn't.

I got my Iron Man/Thanos and Teen Groot/Rocket non-TRU packs. Overall, they're really impressive, but my time stone is noticeably misaligned on the Infinity Gauntlet.

I noticed the weird plastic in my Wolfman box set, it's pretty odd.

The Jack Sparrow head works surprisingly well.

That would make sense, maybe a battle damaged variant.

Where's the rumour of an old DST license new to minimates coming from? And didn't DST make Firefly figures a while ago?

I forgot to mention this, but it would definitely be on my list. I'd rather get the Hellfire Club than the Shi'ar Royal Guard, but a new classic Beast is a good choice. We already got a box set for DoFP, but I think there are enough leftovers to make a solid wave. 80's Wolverine & Moira MacTaggert 80's Angel & Future Storm with Rachel Grey parts 80's Kitty Pryde & Future Colossus with metal parts Sentinel & Future Magneto with Franklin Richards parts I'm not sure who the BaF could be, though.

Dark Phoenix Saga Dark Phoenix & Jason Wyngarde Emma Frost & Sebastian Shaw Fang Wolverine (with Fang parts) & Harry Leland Gladiator & Lilandra BaF: Donald Pierce It'd be good to see Avengers Forever or Under Siege, too.

It looks like an (albeit dull) gold in the trailer to me. I think the grey looks pretty drab, so I hope the minimate is closer to the ML figure than the Pop.

IIRC Zach said Ant-Man and the Wasp product was shown privately at Toy Fair. Maybe they'll need to reshuffle the assortments since TRU's out of the picture.
