My clues from the first page still remain true. And the set is from a fairly well known comic story.

Mandrill?

 

[nandoninny]

is Paladin an antihero?  has he ever been made as a toy?  

quick google search.....

damn, looks like he has but not in the 90's costume i'm familiar with.

I know it doesn't count but Luke made a great Paladin custom a while back

As much as I want this new set to be all about the Slingers (And hey, it COULD fit, just saying)

I think it'll be a Return of the Sinister Six set with a be-suited Doc Ock, Vulture, Sandman, and Chance [anti-hero, never had a toy, fun weird design].  Here's hoping that Spidey will have some kind of battle damage.

 

Close, but not complete.

[Trekker 42]

Okay one of those villains will be Scorpion or Electro. 
 

I’m gonna guess no Vulture, but we get Electro. 

[Navaan]

The pics are great! I really like the Solo.

And no, I don't count the green-Deadpool Solo costume, either. 

[Padrino]

Love that Solo!

[Trekker 42]

Solo!

who the fuck is Solo?

Anyway, lovely set, love the Ock, love the Electro. Vulture doesn’t differentiate himself enough from the Kraven wave Vulture for my tastes and I definitely would’ve preferred a Sandman remake over Vulture. 
 

But that Battle Damaged Spidey is absolutely magnificent and he’ll go great in my collection. Any fun accessories we don’t see, you think?

[elhonez]

I love it, love it. 

Solo is cool looking, and I'll have many uses for his headpiece so this may merit multiple purchases. All very nice. I'm happy to see Electro back in the line, and leisure suit Octopus is a choice look from that era. Keep makin' em, I'll keep buyin' em. 

[funkguerilla]

Finally a different looking Dr. Ock! I love it!

As a matter of fact, I love the whole set.  I can't wait til I can have it in my grubby little hands.

I get my wish with Electro .

I actually love the version of Electro that I (we?) have .   15 years later & I'd welcome a new one & would hope that Electro's mask could be revised , the W30 version is far too bulky IMHO.

Solo = an obscure choice but welcome .

Doc Ock =  very nice 

another Battle-damaged Spidey 

& another Vulture * 

...........Spider-Man Friends & Foes deja vu ?

A nice set if you are new to the game .

 

* we have 2 comic Vulture Minimates that have always been classified/described as Adrian Toomes yet I've always thought that both likeness's look more like Blackie Drago ...is that just me ?  Is this new one Toomes or Drago ?

We need a Blackie Drago skull cap accessory! 

[DSTZach]

Pretty sure the Vulture is Toomes, I finally got in the graphic novel and need to read it. 

 

[Freaqualizer]

That Solo is doooooope! This set is gorgeous! Suited Doc Ock is amazing!

[thereasonsy]

I love this wave! My wish list would include a female Electro chest block so we can get two out of one. I would have replaced Vulture with Rhino but it’s still a great wave.

[Chooch]

Solo!

[cylonchaney]

I don't like Electro myself. But the rest look good, especially Doc Ock.

[Strider]

Loving the look of this set.

[Swarm198]

I’ve been reading comics for like 20 years and I don’t think I’ve ever even seen Solo before.

As a longtime collector, none of these $8 Minimates warrant replacing the $4 Minimates I already have of these characters.

What happened to Electro’s boots? 

Are there any additional pieces to the Vulture to make him look like the younger version? Seems like that would fit in better with all the other 90’s costumes being released recently.

Here's the solicitation image so you can get a slightly different look at these:

We have them up for preorder here. Personally I think this is the best battle-damaged Spidey we have ever gotten, and I love seeing Doc Ock in his white suit - I had a lot of comics as a kid with him sporting that look.

[buttheadsmate]

If the pictures are what we are going to get then it is a bit of a shame we aren't getting 'electricity blasts' for Electro & a hairpiece & headpiece to give us a Drago . I have no way of knowing whether 'Solo's' firearms are new moulds but I suspect they are.....is it not possible to use one of the existing firearm moulds ? There are nearly 300 to choose from .

edit: I've now seen the new pictures with 'electricity blasts'

Usually solicitation images and prototype images do not include all accessories.

I really hope we get the parts for younger Vulture and female Electro. Either way this is ordered.
