  1. Wave 33: technically just 2 new ones, one with 2 costume variations (Menace and Rachel Grey. Sorry, I don't count girl Loki, Anti-Venom and the Sentinel as new characters.)

    TRU exclusives: Actually about 6 new characters in all (Union Jack, Molecule Man, Moonstone, Swordsman, Wolverine movie Silver Fox and Agent Zero. 7 if I count Warpath.)

    How is Anti-Venom *NOT* a new character, but Moonstone is when we already have a Dark Ms. Marvel? Dark Ms. Marvel is just Moonstone in a different costume with the exact same character and personality. Anti-Venom is Eddie Brock whose life, psychology, and personality have been turned upside-down. Anti-Venom is Eddie Brock WITHOUT the symbiote, a new lease on life, and a drastically different power set. Anti-Venom may look similar and have "Venom" in his name, but he's totally different and a lot more compelling than the Venom character has been in 20 years.

    I think Anti-Venom is definitely a good call by DST, and certainly a new character.

  2. I LOVE that Jean Grey was chosen for this assortment, but I'm REALLY disappointed Jubilee isn't here!

    Do companies have something AGAINST Jubilee or what? She is repeatedly the ONLY Jim Lee X-Man character to be passed over by Toybiz, Hasbro, and even the almighty Bowen Designs! (Jean Grey gets passed over somewhat as well, but at least there are several versions of her that get done. Jubilee gets NOTHING!) She was a fairly popular member of the X-Men for a long time, one of the main central characters in the 90's cartoon, appears in all 3 movies, the sidekick to Wolverine for pretty much the entire 90's, and the anchor character for Generation X. I CANNOT understand why every company treats her like the blight. :(
