  1. First off I am a bit confused. Are we skipping End Game mates?!? Secondly, I agree it's disappointing but it is a reality of the situation due to distribution. They aren't in Target/Walmart/Big Box and there is only so much product LCS/Luke and Walgreens can hold. A Classic Comic wave in the Spirit of Far from Home does have the best mass potential as it taps in to multiple animated series, Into the Spider-Verse, the comics, nostalgia fans, and movie audiences. If anything a concentrated effort or campaign for these figures should more be aimed at big box. Like Target/Walmart why don't you carry Minimates? I know 15 years ago Target did carry the figures for a brief bit but this is a decade later so it's worth revisiting. I have worked with The Walgreens team in the past and I know how great they are but we can't count on them to keep this line alive alone the same way we can't count on LCS or even Luke or Big Bad or even Menagerie to keep the line alive. If DST won't commit to a webstore, then wth their distribution centers, online and brick & mortar stores big box is the only way to go.
  2. I feel like this wave will be the Comic version of Dark Phoenix "Movie" similar to the Spider-Man Far From Home scenario. If so perhaps it is Dark Phoenix / Cyclops Gladiator / Warstar Phoenix /Shiar Solider Sebastian Shaw / Hellfire Goon BAF - Lilandra which I find to be the most illogical way of doing it so it has the greatest possibility. This way you are leaning into the ToyBiz wave. Have army builders but not in a convenient way. Give us a spread of the story line (Hellfire and Shiar) and have a popular "unpopular" BAF. But I"m cyncial without a cup of coffee.
  3. Yup! With a black long neck from Reed and wham there we are!
  4. I used it for my Elongated Man custom as DST and DC can’t get it together.
  5. With the news of a DST Select Psylocke what are the odds this amazing butterfly mask would fit or minimate Psylocke? Also these Danger room bases are amazing. https://i.marvelousnews.com/g/generated/Diamond/Marvel-Select-Psylocke/Marvel-Select-Psylocke-00__scaled_800.jpg
  6. Well, maybe these will be a part of Wave 78!!! I for one would love an official Franklin and Val not to mention Alex Power and Crystal! But now I am getting greedy.
  7. It’s a different cape thankfully! I have to say I’m surprised with the comments about the figure selection. They are giving us 4 harder and more expensive figures to find that have mass market appeal (hi Walgreens) that should do really well for the line. I personally don’t have a “real” vulture (just a zombie one with a different head) a custom Hydro Man that’s embarrassing, an old Kraven, and a TRU Mysterio that I never opened because I weirdly only open exclusives once I have a double so selfishly I cannot wait for this wave. I do agree about Miles though but I will probably just parts bin him or just use him for a civilian Miles.
  8. I’m happy so many of you are happy. These are going to the parts bin for me but they look great!
  9. Agreed. They would make nice Disney store sets and would be great for the parks but otherwise I think we are sadly done. It would be a blessing if they gave us a female FF chest block somehow to match the Reed but I doubt it.
  10. Lol! I just got my bald head that is was going to use for Vulture from Luke this MORNING!
  11. Raises hand. I wasn't that keen because I don't like Carol's hair (although I may like it with a different face) and of course the painted on jacket. I was excited though that we got the basic male and female version of a Kree warrior to army build and head swap in carol into a uniform if we didn't get one in the main release (which we did).
  12. Thanks, I was going for this version actually as I hate capes (thanks Incredibles). Good suggestions though!
  13. I want all of these but I also need a Crystal.
  14. Yeah the current ones in the wild I bet are causing a lot of heart ache at Walgreens and Marvel.
  15. I made a Prestige a little bit ago. No to hard to do but it could be expensive if you don't have the parts.
  16. The current series may not scream toys (who knows I haven’t seen it) but perhaps it will finally get is TNG.
  17. Well, maybe the Picard series will finally get me some TNG minimates. https://www.cbr.com/picards-life-radically-altered-new-star-trek-series/
  18. Well, this is upsetting. Am I the only person though that doesn’t have an attachment to OG trek? I love TNG but for some reason they don’t seem to get as much love as the OG franchise.
  19. The only red jacket that I can recall is the one that comes with Netflix Trish. If you paired that with red arms and then a tie it could work.
  20. Amen. Although I have had success with my wolf Wolfsbane that’s just a painted Timber from G.I. Joe and I use Ms Lion from the old Marvel line.
  21. My quest for a black motorcycle is driving me nuts. Any of you have one you recommend?
  22. I'm just waiting for Buffy, DC, actually lies I would be happy with any new license as it will provide fodder at the very least.
  23. Thank man, I actually got this as a Christmas present and here it is:
