Mystery Man

If anyone needs the Alien boxed sets, I think I’ve got a spare or two. 

Classic Invisible Woman - use the same colors as the Best of Mr. Fantastic

Classic Luke Cage, Power Man - because that old face still looks weird

Classic Iron Fist - use the new “collar” technology to replace that bulky, awful chest piece

Yellow Daredevil - easy peasy

Abomination - bulky and from the early comics, please

Classic Vision - non-phasing with extra parts, please

Firestar - yup

Spider Woman - Jessica Drew with cleaner/thinner paint app lines and a new hair piece

I’ve almost always enjoyed Namor, his recent characterizations the exception to that rule. 

If you go back and read his early Fantastic Four appearances, his guest spot in Daredevil #7 and his subsequent starring role in 1/2 of “Tales to Astonish” you’ll see that he’s not *quite* the bragging a-hole that recent stuff seems to paint him as. Sure he can be those things... but there’s a lot more depth to him that they aren’t using. 

I’ve enjoyed him the least in the X-Men books, to be honest. It just never felt like a real good fit. His appearances in the Hickman Avengers/Black Panther fallout were nicely done. And his appearances in the newest “Squadron Supreme” wasn’t half bad either. 

He’s got different motivations but can generally be used as an aquatic Hulk, where he’s good as long as you don’t piss him off... and when you do it’ll take some time to cool him down. 

I, for one, would LOVE  to see a 4-pack with the classic green-trunks version of him, Attuma, Lady Dorma and Tiger Shark. There could be a spare robe, head, arms and legs to turn Dorma into a Lord Vashti from those great “Astonish” issues. 

I think they did Chameleon perfectly! He looks like he stepped right outta his classic 1960’s appearances and that’s how I like it! (It’s Beetle I don’t like... gimme first appearance! ?)

i just wish I could find these to enjoy in-Hand rather than online. One day... !

I would love a classic Warriors Three 3-pack. ?

Classic comic Volstagg, please. Then Hogan and Fandral.

And Trolls because they aren’t sposed to be giant but aren’t due to the Minimates size restrictions. 

But really, there’s not a character on here I wouldn’t want. 

I wiiiiish DST would use the Iron Fist collar piece here, tweak it, and release an updated classic Iron Fist and Power Man. ❤️

Crap! I wanted to post my classic Medusa kitbash. 

Why can't I insert a picture from my phone? I thought we could do that now...

Time for an update!

Looking forward to seeing the spacesuited characters loose. These maybe help out with a void I'm trying to fill. 

It's really made me sad that the classic TMNT stuff may not be released. They look so fantastic and were actually the only ones I wanted.

Dofp Magento or professor? 

You read my mind!

I'm planning on finding a suitable head and soaking it in blue dye. I haven't been able to think of a proper one thus far. 

For FF sets, I'd prefer:

LCS:

- Thing in white/blue "4" tank top (extra battle scarred face and helmet) and classic Diablo

- classic Sue and Reed. Colors match Best of Reed and he comes with new stretch pieces.

- Crystal and Dragon Man

- Clear Invisible Sue and classic Red Ghost (HERBIE included)

TRU:

- Nova flame Human Torch (all white)/ Lyja

- Trapster/Wizard in classic getups

- Gorgon/Lockjaw repaint

- Crystal in FF costume/Psycho-Man

Boxed set of classic Kirby Inhumans:

- Black Bolt

- Medusa

- Karnak

- Triton

Actually I was referring to this which was shown at SDCC last week. Sadly there's been no new  FF minimate product announced. A Wizard / Trapster two pack would be nice.

 

That Reed looks fantastic!

I also wish they'd release a Sue to match the Best Of Reed too. And a Trapster/Wizard two-pack. And boxed sets of the classic Inhumans! And... !

I'm 35 and I know who Ernie Kovacs is. 

Thanks guys!

The thing I'm trying to remember is what belt/gun they gave him. 

Hey all,

I recently saw a great custom of Snake Plisskin of "Escape from New York" and am trying to track it back down. I know it used the legs from one of the Falcon movie 'mates. Any help is appreciated!

Rewarching Predators tonight. I wish we had gotten a mask for the Berserker Predator. That mask looks so cool!

These finally hit near me at TRU so I've got some Silk Spectre/Ozymandias sets for cost plus shipping if anybody needs them. 

We're just getting a TRU set this wave, right?

I'm wondering about the likelihood of Predator 2 detectives in the future.

 they mentioned in the panel trying to get the rest of the predators cast that is missing and maybe more detectives from predator 2 

That's nice to hear! 

I was surprised we weren't getting Harrigans two cop pals (Leona and Danny) from Predator 2. I figured at least one of them would be in this set. I feel like we could've done with a bloodied Harrigan, Leona and Danny and at least one of the remaining two ship scene Predators.

Still, these look great!

Looks like all I need now is Hawkins. 

Bloody Hawkins...

How is putting Wolverine in a wave a reach? He's Marvel's de facto flagship character, after Spidey, and this is his current look -- a high profile look we haven't made. And as far as other costumed characters he has associated with, Spider-Man's granddaughter is one of the few costumes in Old Man Logan. We could have done an X-Man, Storm or Marvel Girl, but they're not going anywhere. And Chuck loves Spidey.

The Old Man Logan I'll give ya, but I'm still not sold on whatsherface as a big name, webs or not. They don't look bad by any means and I meant no disrespect... but I was hoping for the newest Spider-Man costume or maybe a slight re-do of Silk for the sad masses who've done without so far.
