By 90's Beetle, do you mean the Leila Davis Redeemers version?

Abe Jenkins Beetle is my only real Spider-Man want that isn't a redo. I'd want to see what I think of as his classic costume, the one he wore in the 70s and 80s, as well as prior to becoming Mach-I of the Thunderbolts.

Jenkin's second Beetle armor is the one everyone remembers best. And the one I'd most like a minimate of. That said, the Mark III Beetle Jenkin's designed and used in briefly of the T-Bolts was pretty darn cool. That's probably the two Mystery is talking about.

I will also say that while I initially objected to the idea of a female Beetle, I really enjoyed Superior Foes/Fred's Sinister not-Six as a book. And at this point, I'd like a Janice Lincoln Beetle too.

Nightwatch... yeah... I don't think they've as much as mentioned their not-Spawn in a decade. But everybody has a fan. I like Thunderstrike, so I don't judge. (and I have the whole run of that book so... yeah)

A wave of 90's all stars would be fun.

Indeed!

Shame he never caught on despite numerous attempts.

Good distillation of what's wrong with Marvel from a respected retailer:

I have read that before and agree with them.

It probably would, but personally I think the Panthro head would be a better fit.

Depends on the Jackal. Classic? Clone Saga? Most Recent? 

Yeah... if the X-Folk get Acolytes, I want me some Lave Men. Just sayin'. You guys got an entire version of the BoEM, I don't have a whole MoE roster yet. Several partial rosters, but none complete.

Osborne's T-bolts just weren't the T-Bolts, they were the Suicide Squad. Which was fun, no doubt. But it wasn't some known 616 supervillains trying to reform, and not sure how. Which was what I liked about the team. 

And stealing Robbie's joy like that, I'd rather not go through that again. I didn't enjoy it the first time. But YMMV.

Now the question is- will these Warriors be in costume, or plain clothes? Cause I'm really over the heroes in a hoodie thing.

We're making one of those!

Excellent!!

But some people did. Its a common theory. A common, really reaching theory.

Super Sabre.
Yep. That's all we're missing.

Nope.
But then, I've collected almost exclusively Marvel minimates from the word go. I was on board with DC mates when they were coming out but that's it.
That has very little to do with my stand on the movies, just a conscious decision to keep my toy spending within budget.

Didn't see it.
Or Prometheus,
or AvP,
or the other AvP.
After Aliens 4, I'm completely and totally done with that whole Alien thing.
Saw Predators... meh.
Might see new one when I can see it for free, done paying directly for those too. 

And jet black Aliens tend to stand out against that kind of backdrop...

the New Warriors were initially Night Thrasher, Firestar, Nova (Rider), Marvel Boy (Astrovich), Namorita, and Speed Ball. As time went on Silhouette, Rage, and Turbo joined the team, Marvel Boy changed his name to Justice, Namorita went by Kymaera for a while, Dagger, Scarlet Spider, Darkhawk, and Alex Power briefly joined (Ben joined in an attempt to link the book to the Spider Titles), less said about Hindsight the better, and they came within issues of creating Richard Rider- Space Knight as they picked up threads of left over Dire Wraith / Rom plots as the first series wound down. There have been at least four attempts to restart the book, the second was the reality TV idea which featured Microbe and Debris as members and eventually lead to Stamford. None have gained any traction. Pretty much as soon as original writer Fabian Nicieza (yes I had to look up how to spell it) left the book, it started to fall apart and never recovered.

Interestingly, Squirrel Girl was never a member of any 616 version. That was only the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon.

I'm totally on board for Cardian, Calypso, Beetle and Tombstone minimates!

And Puma, and Vermin, and Carrion, and Prowler, and Styx & Stone, and Molten Man, and Demogoblin, and Jackal, and Boomerang, and Silvermane, and Hammerhead...

Sigh...

So... two real Warriors, two utterly forgettable Warrior, a Great Lakes Avenger and the AT&T girl...

hoo boy.

I doubt the Celestials were part of the X-Men license. Fantastic Four on the other hand... that's possible. But it's really fuzzy, the Kree first appeared in Fantastic Four, yet they are in the MCU. Skrulls are Fox. So are the Badoon for some odd reason. How the Inhumans were not part of the FF deal also baffles. So whether we're dealing with a Celestial Homage or an actual 1000 ft giant, we'll probably have to wait till November.

Well Ten...

Just sayin'.

Surtur's in 74 or one of the Ragnarok sets. Probably not in both. (but I could be wrong)  Considering how close the movie and comics designs are, he may be here because he they ran out of room in the Ragnarok.

Ulik the Rock Troll is our best guess as an alternate.

Director who was pushing the idea has already moved on.

That's our current best guess.

Again.. as long as everyone in these cards also gets a minimate

I'm game for all those X-Folk.

I think that was in the works at one point, there was some concept art floating around and talk of Aliens 5 showing that 3 & 4 were dreams Ripley was having in stasis, etc.. But these prequels very much killed the studios interest in all that. 

The Decathlon Jacket would have put it well over the top from not bad bonus to really cool gotta have. Still, having now seen the movie, yeah, kinda wanting it now just for the Toomes-mate. Darn my low sales resistance.

Anyways, looking back, that advice would have been much appreciated before viewing Alien 4 for the first time.

I paid to see it at the theater. I was too stunned, too stupefied with what was on the screen to move. By the time I fully registered what they had really done, they created the afore mention 1 inch opening, and at that point morbid curiosity took over. Kept waiting for the Bobby-in-the-shower twist ending that never came.

I used to hate Pred-2... but it's grown on me over time. It's like Jaws, in that when I'm flipping channels... er scanning the guide for you kids... I always seem to find it playing sometime after the opening shootout. And finding nothing else that fits the "background noise while I work" midday TV viewing requirements, I end up finishing "watching" it. Kinda like Jaws... always seem to find it on, can't tell you last time I saw it start to finish.

Anyway, none of them are as good as the first one, mostly because we already know the drill, we've seen the big reveal, and you kinda know what's coming.
