  1. That hood piece had a bit of extra hood on the back. It'd need an entirely new piece anyways.
  2. I'm not trying to discredit Spiral from any of her awesomeness. She's one of my favorite X-Baddies and I'm ecstatic that we have her. I'm just saying that to today's general audience (which is what the Collector conversation seemed to be about) Spiral is relatively unknown.
  3. Just because a character is obscure doesn't mean TRU won't take them. They picked up the Mojo / Spiral pack. That's two obscure characters. Even if you remember Mojo from the 90's X-Men toon, Spiral is still C or D-List. Plus, the popular mobile game "Contest of Champions" gives Collector a bit more closure.
  4. Is the alternate white chestblock and skirt piece in the most recent set supposed to go to Hugo Strange or Mister Freeze? Ivan has it with Mister Freeze, but my initial thoughts were to put it with HUgo. Zach, can you clear this up? Also, I still haven't bee able to find this one in the wild.
  5. I'm hoping for a classic Collector. As for the Spider-Man characters, Zach said that it was two characters who match, like they have something to do with each other. That being said, it could be a comic variant of Noir Spidey and then a Noir villain to go with him. I don't think a Noir villain would really work from a marketing standpoint, though. Does Ben Reilly count as a Spider-Verser? We could really benefit from a new Scarlet Spider. If that's the case, Kaine or the Jackal could be the villain.
  6. Only three. The four characters from the box set and then the exclusive Ozymandius and Silk Spectre.
  7. Oh, if I ruled the minimate world Rocky would have his own series of four 2-pack waves with every variation, every character and every movie fully represented. I'd even have an extra Peter Pitrelli for my inevitable Heroes line of figures.
  8. They all look great! Red King is a very nice surprise and Surtur is a very welcome addition. Plus, that Thor looks great! We finally get a new Hulk and it's everything I could've ever wished for. Only gripe for this whole wave is the lack of crown upon Hulk's brow, but that's easily forgivable for the amount of awesomeness the figure holds already. Wonderful job, DST! Can't wait.
  9. They all look very nice and will be welcome in my display! However, I d know that Medusa's hair will certainly be used for a 616 later down the line so that gives me hope. Plus, great idea making it a base! Will she have an extra set of regular length hair at all? Or are we stuck with the upright base. Also, the Abomination fits the animated line perfectly. Hoping for an Osborne head underneath the Patriot. Black Bolt's alt. Head looks very promising and I'm hoping for some white Kirby crackles in there! Great wave!
  10. Love the atmosphere of that picture, Luke!
  11. I thought the faceplate just lifted up like a welding mask.
  12. Meh. I don't expect much from it. Maybe I'll watch the premiere in theaters.
  13. I agree with PL. I have no issue with Cyborg becoming a member later down the line, or even as an auxiliary member. But when he was a Titan, it basically meant "you're not really experienced enough to play with the big dogs, so go fight crime in LA for a bit!" At least that's my take away. But, yes, Cyborg should not be a founding member of the JLA.
  14. HOLY GREAT LOOKING SET!!! I second the Quicksilver notion abut the eXtra green. I don't foresee having issues with Toad's crouching. I also don't think I'll be needing an extra set for Mastermind, I think the original Professor X holds up so well I still use it. Kudos to the fine folks at DST!
  15. Yeah maybe that way people can FINALLY accept The Incredible Hulk as an MCU movie
  16. Thank you! I've never understood IM2's hate. Sam Rockwell's Justin Hammer rivals Loki as best MCU villain.
  17. I've got nothing to say but: god damn it. There may be better portrayals of Batman out there, but at the end of the day Adam West is the Caped Crusader.
