Stealth Iron Man, new costume Black Widow, and Ghost would all fit the clues. Plus, it's a bit of a movie tie-in. Didn't Zach say in the black widow thread that he thought most people would be happy with what DST is offering? I can't see a comic tie in if they are doing a movie wave (or box set) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are to get another Silver Sable I am pleased for those people who feel that another is necessary . As always & especially in these austere Minimate times I will always prefer new characters rather than re-do's . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thereasonsy Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Given the news around 79 this wave will be cancelled as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 It can't be canceled unless it's solicited. It's entirely possible that Series 80 will have changes that address the perceived problems with Series 79 before it's solicited. Without know exactly what the lineup was supposed to be, it's hard to tell. If retailers aren't happy with the 4-set cases and want to return to the 3-set assortments, one of the 2-packs from 79 could make its way into 80. At this point it's a crapshoot.

DSTZach Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) 79 is not cancelled. And Series 80 should be at NYTF next month. It's an espionage theme. Both 79 and 80 have three two-packs. Edited January 15, 2020 by DSTZach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Yes 79 is Moondragon. 80 is a female mercenary. Edited January 15, 2020 by DSTZach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Looks like DST is passing on the Black Widow movie license and giving us a comic-based tie-in instead. Mockingbird, please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhonez Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Ghost / Stealth Iron Man is looking more and more likely. BAF sounds like Silver Sable. Maybe unlikely, but I'd love to see Valentina from SHIELD as the second female hero. Mockingbird would also be great. Who else fits the "unmade female espionage hero" clue?

elhonez Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Also just thought of Space Phantom as a good villain for this wave Edited January 15, 2020 by elhonez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody said that. Just because 79 is not Widow doesn't mean there will be no Widow. Or that this at all tied to Widow. This would be a fall release anyway.

MisterPL Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 That's good news. A fall release should give DST ample time to fit in all the movie characters collectors want most. Wait... What? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Idk if she fits the clues but I'd like an updated red and yellow spider woman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 The Julia Carpenter Spider-Woman (black/white) fits the clues to a T. Spider-character, was a member of West Coast Avengers, and a part of Iron Man's Force Works. Jessica Drew (red/yellow) doesn't have strong ties to Iron Man, but definitely makes sense as a Spider-Man and Avengers character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chooch Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Taskmaster and Black Ant could be a Merc duo pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereasonsy Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 If we do end up with a Silver Sable update, I really hope they give us a Lilandra head like Marvel Legends so we could at least kitbash her. At this point I’m not excited about these clues and much lease excited it’s a fall release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Not exactly sure when the release is, I was just guessing. We won’t solicit it until 79 is out, I don’t think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
