  1. I only buy comic waves. I don't have any movie wave for no specific reason. Actually, I guess I never really liked any movie version of the characters I have been reading for 20 years... I'd love to get a comic Guardians of the Galaxy wave, for example. Well, who knows after the movie and if it's successful... ;)

  2. My ideas would be:

    - Classic Magneto

    - Mastermind (with extra body parts do build his Hellfire Club look - and why not his crazy face after being defeated by the Phoenix?!)

    - Classic Scarlet Witch

    - Quicksilver in green outfit

    Another 4 pack with:

    - Toad

    - Destiny

    - Pyro

    - Avalanche

    And a 2 pack with Classic Rogue and Disco Dazzler... (can't a man have his dreams?!)

  3. I do not understand the overwhelming popularity of Deadpool, and I certainly don't understand the overwhelming popularity of Deadpool dressed as Marvel Girl.

    I share the same feelings. Here in Brazil they tried to release his solo comic but it wasn't a huge success. So we now have his Marvel Now stories in another title called X-Men Extra, which packs Deadpool, both X-Force titles, X-Men Legend and Ororo's X-Men. His stories really suck IMHO...

    By the way I wish we could get Ororo, Psylocke, Rogue and Rachel's new outfits. They really rock! :)

  4. I *just* opened both of my boxsets & they are covered in a glittery substance. Both Red Skulls, a Magneto from one set, & Green Goblin from the other. Galactus appears to be immune. Did anyone else encounter this? I wish I had taken a picture before wiping them clean.

    I noticed the same thing with my Peter Pan set. I thought it was some kind of effect... lol

  5. Just ran across an article from November about these costumes that had this picture:

    ANXM_COSTUMES_08062013_zps23c7fa86.jpg

    So there definitely was concept art around that had Bobby's costume different from the final version.

    What if they changed the whole color scheme of Bobby's uniform? Would we still be getting this light blue/white version or would DST change the colors for the final ones? I see now that DST worked on an early concept art, which is nice... this entire wave is really cool and I hope to see X-23 anytime soon... but there was a little change between concept art and the final look.

  6. Well, thank God my Viper came with green hair... my Selene dresses in black... Alicia Masters is really blind...

    Come on, we are talking about an error in a wave that will be released in how many months? The chances of it being corrected are not small I suppose. Well, I actually don't know about that, but anyway, why not include two torsos so we get the real Bobby Drake and a variant of the variant for the Champions team?

  7. I have no issues about having a Champion-era Bobby Drake, but since this is not a Champion wave... Otherwise, Angel's terrible costume would be missing, wouldn't it?

    And I really don't know if it's easy or difficult to add the black part to Bobby's torso. It's not my job. I'm not paying for the wave plus shipping fee to Brazil, which is not cheap, to do that kind of thing. Sorry.

    Before collecting Minimates I collect comics and accuracy on the character transformed into a Minimate is the least I can expect... I really don't want to extend the discussion on Bobby's color but I do think this is the space to express our different points of view. :)

  8. Sorry, but I really don't think that it should depend on me or anyone else to "fix" a wrong color scheme. If we have this open communication area with the company and we're able to point that there's something wrong with the chosen colors of a future relase, why not fix it before releasing it, even if it's a variant figure. As far as I know most of the collectors present here care about such things as color accuracy. That's my opinion. I'll buy the whole set anyway but I'd much more pleased to know that my Bobby Drake Minimate is the closest he could be of what he's supposed to represent.

  9. I never bought any pack from 'Best of' waves 'cause I really never felt I needed the new figures (well... that transforming Bruce Banner is killer though...) but I gotta have this new Luke Cage! Not so sure about this new Iron Fist... dunno if it's gonna be so much different from Shadowland one...

    And Gray Hulk will be a nice addition to my Hulk family!

  10. I guess all international collectors hate with all their forces TRU waves... Man, I'll have to pay at least three times that value (plus shipping fees) to get this wave... :(

    Seeing this wave at such prices at local TRU stores makes me wanna cry!!

  11. Once again, I have an idea of box set that you'd make me pretty happy: classic disco Dazzler, classic Rogue, Mystique and Destiny. I've heard that female sets don't sell so well as other sets, but geez... Imagine the disco Dazzler mate with silver outfit and roller blades (dreaming is free, right?!).

    For a modern look, I'd vote for the recent looks for Cyclops, Magik (with Phoenix Five variant), Magneto, Rogue, Storm and Rachel Summers.

    Oh no has to be roller skates not blades :)

    Ops, sorry! ;)
