Looks like I'll be buying the villians and a few extra heroes packs. To make a Jean Grey like this:

Definitely getting the Jean pack and hoping she does come with a powered up face, hair and flight stand. PLEASE.

I'd love to see her new energy form as a variant: SPOILERS POSSIBLY below:

Jean Grey/Phoenix Through the Ages, a little bit of something for everyone!

Marvel Girl- with a mask and switch out maskless head

Red X-Factor- energy blasts and flight stand

AOA Phoenix- phoenix base, with a long and short hair piece

HCT Jean- phoenix base and translucent to boot!

I really wish Jean didn't come with Morrigan. I already have the past 2 Morrigan. This one actually doesn't look better than those to me. I wanted Jean packed with a character I didn't have like Arthur or Dante.

Here's hoping we find out the how the packs will be divided up soon! From C2E2 we heard all the possible characters will be done in the first 3 waves. Each wave usually has 6 characters and a variant.

That's only 18 including variants. Marvel vs Capcom 3 has 36 characters, and even not counting seemingly impossible to do minimates like Modok or Shuma Gorath, what about the other characters?

Here's hoping we get a P2 alt color White Phoenix!!(and possibly Dark too, but if just one variant I'd like White since we've never got her like that yet)

Just preordered these at BigBadToystore. Can't wait to have these in hand. These are slick. As some of you know, I mainly collect X-Men, but this set gives me an incentive to go out and buy so much more of the Marvel Universe because they interacted a lot with the rest of the MU in these costumes. I can't wait to display them with the various people they've fought or teamed up with like the FF or Hulk! These stories are light and a much needed break from the doom and gloom of the current MU. Plus they make the X-Men much more cohesive with the rest of the MU as opposed to being in their own little universe which only appears with others during big crossovers,

This series had great things like Jean shadowing with Sue Storm, and the guys worried she had left them for good:

Hulk vs the X-Men:

More to come!!

I was late to the Minimate collecting game, so I have yet to get a proper Iceman. The older ones are too expensive. I may get this set just for Iceman, as I have no real need for these costume iterations.

Is this available for preorder anywhere yet?

Jean Grey: Phoenix through the Ages

1) Green skirt Marvel Girl

2) Red costumed X-Factor Jean Grey

3) Revolution Phoenix

4) Here Comes Tomorrow Phoenix

They all look quite different from each other and awesome costumes.

Inhumans (probably a bad selling set but whatever lol):

Medusa, Crystal, Triton, Modern Black bolt

Brotherhood:

Toad, Pyro, Blob, Sauron

X-Men Giant Sized 2

Banshee, Sunfire, Marvel Girl (skirt & pointy mask), Colossus w/ powerhouse chest

New X-Men-Here Comes Tomorrow:

Cowboy Wolverine w/ torn costume, Rover(damaged modern Sentinel), Cassandra Nova, Phoenix in clear plastic

Marvel Pets or Pet Avengers (no way its happening, but fun to imagine):

Devil Dinosaur, Thor Frog, Ms. Lion, Zabu

Don't forget Vanisher & Mesmero!!

Yeah the movie sounds like a hot mess.

To be honest I'm not too fussed about this movie or these minimates, but I might get Beast, Azazel and MAYBE Havok.

Oh and azazel's(really??) claws for a Zoidberg custom!

Meh. They're kind of boring design wise. I'll probably only get a loose Emma on the cheap to make a modern Colleen Wing. Other than that I'll save some cash.

Nope you're not the only one. I plan to buy an extra set. Use the Cyclops and another head and brown hair for a de-iced iceman. A female head and hair for a maskless Marvel Girl. And sub in an extra angel without wings and add in big feet for a Beast. So even if he's some crazy chase, I'll have a Beast.

I'm hoping these come with extra maskless heads and/or flight stands. I need more flight stands.

I am liking these a lot, but am I the only one who wants a de-iced Bobby Drake? I'm hoping thats what they put in the expected Beast pack. But I would like to see other character versions from this comic, like Wanda and Pietro and we need any version of Toad and Blob.

I would love a Machine Man, Toad, and Dragon Man to go with these!!

I'd love an updated Scarlet Witch to go with these. My favorite part of the books were when Jean and Wanda would have girl time.

I could get behind an updated, slightly less-stunned looking Wanda. Or better yet, a FA Toad

More up close shots taken from the toy fair thread. Lookin' good!!

hey storm get it from Kmart. They're offering 25,000 pts with the purchase which equates to about 25 dollars.

Umm... Why are we talking about Mega Man games when Marvel vs Capcom 3 just came out today? I would have bought the game already but I'm going to save some money and wait for a deal. I do have to say, though, the Minimates really made me more excited for the game.*

*board mandated Minimate comment

Haters begone! I can't wait for this set. They really should have just added Beast or replace Iceman since you can sub him out for any of the other Icemen.

Maybe we can get the actual fem fatale Medusa hair on a Dark Phoenix variant! And I want a White Phoenix with a pearly finish like 90s Storm or Moonstone.

Plus - we've already had a Green & Metallic Gold phoenix. You could always do a head swap if you want this look with metallic golf gloves/boots.

EDIT: I'd REALLY like to see the MVC3 Jean come with the actual Femmes Fetales Medusa Hair! i think that'd look wicked!

The femme fatales look great!

I'll say it again too. They're completely different looks. These fall between the first appearance and giant sized x-men. These stories from the last couple of years had them interacting with Machine Man, Namor, the FF, Dr. Strange, etc and I quite enjoyed these looks and these stores since they felt more a part of the MU as a whole as opposed to their own universe. They were fun, and light hearted not the doom and gloom that the current x-books are filled with so I found them quite enjoyable. I'm glad there are minimates of them!! Now if we can get a Dragon Man minimate so I can display him as Jean's pet I will be even more happy.

I'll say it again. We JUST got these! Their costumes are far and above too similar!

Must have, love the series. I hope since there's not a lot of new parts that there are a lot of acessories like flight stands for Jean and Angel, and maybe alt heads for Cyke, Jean and Angel<

why? the more new parts the better in my opinion

Once more it irritates me that they're not reusing any of the old pieces. Chunli's gauntlets? nope. Morgaina's wings? nuh-uh. Ruy's gloves even? Get out of here kid, you're buggin me.

Both Sinsisters look so cool. Must have for me

Actually these are not First Appearance costumes at all. They come from the period between the Neal Adams era and Giant sized X-Men. And they're quite different from the ones we already got. As long as they're different, bring them on!!!

Mothers, shield your children, because I'm going to cuss.

Why the HELL are they giving us another FA X-Men set?! We JUST got one. Literally not 6 months ago. I realize they are eager to snap up the license for First Class, but they are giving us a set of characters that we already have, in costumes we already have, from a movie that they don't even appear in. What the hell is DST thinking?! Are they farbot, or just stupid?!

Oh goody, Kat. May try to find her.
