Really? I'd love to check that out. This timing was pure coincidence: Shang-Chi Movie?

Thanks! I'll probably eventually go back and paint the boots & belt a bright yellow to make them pop a little more, but I was pretty pleased with how the tiger striping came out. There a ton of fun villains from Shang-Chi's past that could be done, to varying degrees of difficulty from easy QC to a little more involved, so I may stay in this lane for a bit...

Took a little paint, but otherwise a QC. I don't expect anyone to know who he is - he's an obscure Shang-Chi foe from the 70s, "Tiger Claw." Oh, and btw: Hey DST, make Shang-Chi already.

Is DST done with this license for now? Or can we expect any more Pred mates in 2019? (and/or Aliens?)

Well that is just delightful news on a Friday.

"Tried" past tense? Or "are trying" ?

Could it be a Deadpool 2 box set?

Thanks BHM! There are a couple of LCS spots I have yet to check here, so I'm going to make a last-ditch effort to find the two-pack. On the off chance I do, I'll load up in case anyone else is looking.

Why is it so hard to find a Zoot/Lips mate or 2-pack? I just want these guys. More specifically: their instruments. Anyone know where I could find them? I've only seen a full S3 set for sale on Amazon. Nowhere else. Not eBay, not Luke's, not ToyWiz (I must be desperate), not BBTS...

Great suggestions - thanks! I think Blob will work.

Some mates have hair painted on their heads. Zombie-eaten Panther, some Halo marines, etc. Any blond characters with painted-on hair?

He was a blind from Series 2. I regret not buying a whole box - I ended up finding a LCS that sold them and had some luck finding all of the rest, but they ran out before I could find a Hawkins.

1. I'm still hunting for a Hawkins - dude is never on eBay. 2. Will there be more Pred mates? I'd still love to see the final Predator 2 preds, battle-damaged Blain or Dillon, and more (I would not stop buying variations of the main characters, of the first two movies at least).

Some gems in there though, some fair prices - thanks for sharing Padrino.

@MMSM & Zach - Thanks both!

Hey, I think I've seen this posted in thread before - is there an email or phone# for support? e.g. missing pieces from 2-packs?

When will we learn the official 77 lineup?

This is just a proof-of-concept, but you might smell what I'm cooking here:

Ordered. Very excited!

Molten Man seems a lock, and Prowler best fits the villain-ally descriptor. Hydro-Man and Shocker both neatly fit the 10- and 11-year clues. "Two very recently made characters" most certainly includes Spider-Man, while "one new costume, one costume that hasn't been made in a while" makes me think Symbiote Spidey, because I would assume any non-SM characters in the wave would not have so many costumes in their 'mate history that the "not in a while" clause makes sense. Past that it gets blurry for me. If the above guesses are right, there are four left that need to fit the following clues: 1 Hero, 3 Villains 1 of which is a new character, 1 of which has been "recently made" 1 8-year old re-do: I only see Vulture in 2010, but he's had Zombie, animated, and MCU mates since... could be "Classic Vulture Re-Do," specifically? Assuming it wouldn't be Lizard b/c he's had a proper comic figure since. Kraven's as good a guess as any, for a nice "Last Hunt" 2-pack with Symbiote Spider-Man. ...that leaves a recently-made character, and a new character. The new character having not been mentioned as of Sunday at 5:30pm. One hero, one villain.

I like surprises.

Hmm. Revised guess: Prowler. Molten Man. Symbiote Spidey. Shocker. Hydro-Man. Rhino. Beetle. Comic Speed Demon. +Silvermane or Living Brain Oh wait ... two heroes. I dunno. Nightwatch?

I think I'm like Chuck in that I never get tired of Spider-Man (provided this is a SM wave). Keep bringing on new villains, I'm all-in. For ex: I was both surprised and delighted by classic Chameleon in TRU 25. (although y'all need to sneak in a proper classic Chameleon head with eye slits and goggles into another pack sometime...)

If they do Shocker, will it be classic puffy suit? Or modern Superior Foes? Also Beetle could technically be an update, since they did she-beetle.
