  1. Good call on those character waves, there were two Iron man mates in that wave and two Spider Man mates in the Jean Dewolf. I think there was only one Cap mate, would this Deadpool wave be the first comic book wave with the same character (different looks) in each pack?

  2. Not excited by this wave at all. I'm tired of all the X-Men.

    Especially Deadpool...he's gotten more than enough love over the past few years.

    I agree with you one the fact that there has been a lot of Deadpool love in the last few years, but these might do really well. A Deadpool on ebay at the cheapest is $20+ and that is for the Assemble boxset so this does give people another shot at a basic Deadpool.

    What interests me is since every set has a Deadpool if this does well does that bode well for future single character based waves? I can't recall this be done out side of the Wolverine movie waves....

  3. Diggin this wave and glad DST chose to do this instead of a movie wave. Would have preferred Deadpool in his blue X-MEN costume instead of Hero-pool but oh well.

    I wouldn't worry it is such an easy variant DST will get to it eventually. Every company seems to making this costume lately.

  4. I'm excited about this revival as a whole considering that I didn't get any BTTF minimates prior.

    As someone who was fully invested in the first run, I am also very happy for the revival. It gives new collectors main characters and those who collected prior just enough new stuff to keep it exciting.

  5. I bought multiple versions of Dutch from NECA so I don't have any problems also getting them from DST. Heck, I'd be willing to buy polo shirt Dutch and jacket Dutch too.

    Same here. Predator was the first R rated movie I ever saw. My dad made a bet with my brother and I and we won so he rented it for us. I think was 7 or 8. Mom was not happy. So not only do I love the film for itself it is also attached to fond memories of childhood.

    Strider that is really cool, I also feel the same way. Me and my sister watched it on TV at my grandparents without my parents knowing when I was 8 and she was 6. They were not happy, but I to this day think the predator is one of the best movie characters of all time.

  6. Many of the blind product have questionable packaging that don't advertise well what you are getting. I don't like blind bags at all (I blame it on my PTSD from my wreck-less CCG days), but I don't blame DST on using a proven effective method of distribution. Almost every kind of mini figure has a blind bag/box type product, and its hit or miss if what they are showing on the package informs about the product.

  7. I'm Gonna say the sets for series 2 are:

    Gamora/Drax: One GOTG with this modern version of Drax never made before

    Doctor Octopus/Power Man: Doc Ock is a re-occuring villain to my recollection and neither of these outfits have been made before

    Black Widow/Iron Skull: I think the Skull still has his version of the iron man armor in the Assemble cartoon so that counts as "never made before"

    Falcon/Iron Man: It's an easy way to round out the team, and I quite like Falcon's costume in the show......because it's the classic look....

    Not a bad line up, but I would guess noir spiderman over power man. I am also hoping for a squadron supreme member.

  8. Keep your Crystal Pepsi Spidey. Gimme that Sandman! I need 'em bad, bad, bad. Will go halfsies on a few sets for Sandy's.

    ... so Sandman is only at TRU? Not Walgreens?

    Then who's at Walgreens again.

    These are just TRU, Walgreens has a different set all together.

    Star Lord/Groot/Rocket

    Hulk/Cap

    Electro/Spiderman

    Agent Venom/Spiderman 2099
