I actually much prefer AOA Colossus to his normal universe counterpart. Ever since he came back he's been nothing more than shiny metallic wall paper. meh. AOA Colossus was cool and stomped on Kitty.

Also want an AOA Sinister and a normal Sinister soon.

Aside from the ones mentioned Holocaust and an AOA sentinel would be cool.

Still waiting for the loose pics.

Wouldn't mind a Holocaust or Sentinel, though i imagine, like Hasbro's, Holocaust will be "Nemesis" or something.

I kinda want that Colossus. Mostly because we haven't seen him get a Mini in ages. Quite frankly...i don't even like the guy.

Same here. I thought they were missing because they didn't show up, but glad I was proved wrong.

Also is the tattoo missing from Jean Grey's eye in the in package pics?

Phew! you really had me worried for a second there. The pics have loaded up now and i am filled with relief

I wouldn't mind as long as they come with more accessories, bases and unique sculpted parts. More extra heads, etc etc and better quality control on the paint apps.

Thanks for the pics! They look great, though I wish Sunfire was all one color plastic instead of part translucent and part clear. Also it would have been nice for Jean to at least come with an energy accessory.

Any in hand pics yet?

Whatever these weird lines are whether they are breasts or ribs, DST dropped the ball with her chest tampo. It just looks off.

That and the lack of 90s Jim Lee's yellow on her crotch piece AND padding. Plus the original x-men set with the yellow overlapping the blue/black neck lines have made me very disappointed.

Make that 4, so only 500 sets each.

There DST, i said it. Give 'em Kurt. Now gimme my Jean Grey TTA set. Pweety Pwease??

I think you and i would have to commit to about 1000 sets each for this to sell enough to be worth DST's efforts. LOL

I would take one as well, so it is just ~ 667 sets each.

The Jean Grey Wolverine Apocalypse set is as good as mine. I'll get the other set later.

They look swweeet! But where's the other AOA set that was supposed to be at NYCC?!?

Still no new pics of the second AOA box set? I hope they fix the chest area on Jean.

what about the other AOA set. I thought they were both going to be released at NYCC.

It was epic. Better than any of the crossovers today, imo.

By the way, love the Un-official. LOL

I... I've never actually read AoA. is it any good?

I hope we get Blink Sabretooth Wildchild Morph frst before some of these other guys who were peripheral at best. Down for Holocaust though.

Hopefully they will add some more characters from this storyline. Here is hoping for,

Abyss/Banshee

Exodus/Dazzler

Chamber/Husk

Nemesis/Nate grey

Oooh, it's an "OFFICIAL" thread. Did you get all the paperwork filled out? Stamped in triplicate? Hopefully you paid all the appropriate fees in a timely manner.

Do I need permission before posting in it?

All that and and a seal of approval.

They need to release new pics!

These little guys deserve their own thread and for those that have missed out on the SDCC preview thread.

Have we had any official shots of them? I want better pics!

Any word on acessories?

Never been a big FF fan, so glad we're getting a wave or two to get them out of the way.

I think people just like the gold and silver and want them because they're rare. If it had been mass produced like a regular pack, they'd probably still be peg warming somewhere or available cheap like those armored spideys.

I am freaking STOKED to be seeing the AOA stuff. The 2nd boxset is also Awesome. And i'm damn glad to see at least a couple of Villains included. I was worried we might only get Apocalypse.

I'd be bummed and just a little surprised if we don't at least see Blink & Morph in a future 2-pack or 4-pack. It'd be awesome to see a few others make the cut too. Storm, Bishop, Holocaust, & Sabretooth would all be VERY welcome. I'd love to see a huge hulking Colossus packed with a nasty little Shadowcat (she was such a b*tch in the AoA) in there too somewhere - but i doubt we'll see that many more than the already hinted at Blink TRU exclusive.

AND. . . i can not FREAKING believe that i am going to get to cross AoA Jean Grey off my Top 10 most wanted list. She was the one figure on there that i really thought we would NEVER see. The most ridiculous or all my X-wants. Colour me crazy-happy-excited

Cyclops needs his visor and Jean needs bigger boobs. haha

Seriously these sets are amazing. I hope they have a bunch of accessories. Flame blast for Sunfire, energy blasts for Magneto and Jean, Cyke's visor, an alternate arm for Weapon X with just a stub and no claw, and some sort of vial for Dark Beast.

No 90s X-Men box set review?

I am SOOOO pumped about the AoA minimates. IMO it's one of the best done crossovers (head over heals better than Onslaught). Back in my customizing days I had plans for knocking them out at some point.

I don't know why all the AOA hate. Don't hate just it was done in the 90s. Some of the best character makeovers I've seen. Cant wait to get my hands on them.

Right on. I reread AOA a couple months back and its epicness still holds up today. Despite being in the dreaded 90s, it really is a great crossover. Better than any of the crossovers like House of M, Decimation, Second Coming, or whatever 'event' Marvel has these days that just end up fizzling and disappointing.

BTW... Super stoked about the Marvel unveils. Captain America set looks amazing. Looks as if he's got a new glove sculpt as well as a newly sculpted shield straps. Very interesting. AoA looks to rock although Weapon X's hair is WAAAAY to big. DST should rename him Afro X.

Weapon X in the AOA did have major hair though.

That's a pretty big task. LOL. I don't think it's even possible to see everything at the con, much less put pictures of all the toys and goodies.

I keep coming back to look at the AOA minimates....love them!
