MiniMCMotu Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 16 minutes ago, BuffaloDelorean said: Well, the lineups for Homecoming and Vol 2 seem pretty complete, and I don't think Ragnarok will be quite big enough for a second wave. There might be enough characters, but looking at the main cast, it's not quite on the level of Age of Ultron or Civil War. Have they told us how they will release Drax and Nebula? TRU or comic shop exclusive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Spider Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) I'm a little puzzled why one of the main guardians is the exclusive but I'm a fan of the wave(s?) as a whole. Edited February 4, 2017 by The Scarlet Spider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I think because this way Yondu is at LCS (he was a TRU exclusive with vol. 1) and Gamora and Nebula are at TRU (they were both specialty only with vol. 1 and DST caught flack for no females when TRU hit first).

Well, with the absence of Drax, Nebula, Wonder Man (Nathan Fillion), and no Sly mate, there is a chance we might see more mates from this movie in the form of an exclusive or another wave.  Add in the main antagonist and some goons and you're one character away from another wave. Of course, they could skip those characters altogether. Who knows? It seems like this is all still up in the air. We might find out more at Toy Fair. Edited February 4, 2017 by MiniMCMotu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 5 hours ago, BuffaloDelorean said: I'm hoping 76 will be released this year to help balance out the three movie waves.  Well, even if it is, it'll be released close to December or so... At least the Wolverine Wave is ace. And, TBH, I'm kinda curious about the Ragnarok Wave. Hela looked very comic accurate in the Concept Art, and there are a lot of Thor villains that are supposedly in this flick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Fillion is actually in the movie or has any lines. it's just James Gunn having some fun with a character that Marvel is never gonna use in any of these films. Edited February 9, 2017 by suicidewatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloDelorean Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I was reading the original Secret Wars recently, and it made me think that it would be a good way of getting the Wrecking Crew and some significant hero variants. I was thinking: Classic She-Hulk & The Wrecker Green and Purple Wasp & Piledriver Professor X (classic redo or field costume) & Thunderball Brotherhood Rogue & Bulldozer  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Hasbro's Marvel Universe figures took that approach to the Wrecking Crew. I doubt DST would go back to Secret Wars without hitting some of the big guns again though. I can't believe we still only have one Wasp, and no micro version.

The issue with too many primary characters is eventually it's indistiguishable from a Best Of wave. I guess Iron Man II would technically be new. There are so many Wasp varisnts I'd like to see, since she changes her costume so often. Micro versions would be fantastic too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zylek Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) I just got my modern Marvel Select GotG in the mail today, I sure wish we had the minimate versions of them as well.... Edited March 16, 2017 by Zylek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Spider Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I would take a really good redo of the back In black spidey that is kinda expensive now that came with the awesome peter face and hair to get the wrecking crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right in saying that the Peter face was awesome ...I'd go further & say that all the character faces in that wave were stunning .  I must add however that I was not amongst those who embraced the new slip-over mask design .......opinions were divided here.  Bring back another BiB Spidey ,give him an alternate masked head & I'm onboard.  BTW ,the artwork on W24's Kraven's chestpiece   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsomedevil Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I'll probably get boo'd out of the room, but I want more Deadpool. Â I just read Deadpool Kills Deadpool again and there are some AWESOME character options in there like Howard the Duckpool, Wolvie-pool, Panda-pool, Dog-pool, the cowboy 'Pool, the Luchador-pool, Pulp Deadpool, the list goes on and on...

The Scarlet Spider Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I want Ms. Marvel through the ages. The carol danvers non captain marvel is too old for me to even pursue it, like the face and hair is eh to me. It really needs an update. We could also get Khan this way and Monica and Moonstone/dark Ms. Marvel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol TtA could be early Mar-Vell costume Ms. Marvel, Cockrum Ms. Marvel update, Binary, and early 2000's Warbird or SHIELD Captain Marvel. Captain Marvel TtA could be the Skrull Captain Marvel (with white-haired Mar-Vell head), electromagnetic Monica Rambeau, Genis-Vell, and SHIELD Captain Marvel.
