    One A Day 2.0: Day #317 - Midgard Serpent

    Yes yes yes yes yes! Stingray and Jack of Hearts are the two longest mainstays on my top 10 and they aren't going anywhere until they're made. Classic version all the way. I love the metallic red of the very last image of the classic look. The cape is obviously going to be a challenge - if...

    MAFEX Marvel Figures

    Her proportions remind me of Marvel Select Rogue.

    MAFEX Marvel Figures

    I almost put an order in but I'm waffling. At first glance I don't love the heads or the metallic green, and that jacket does seem destined to fall apart. The belt looks goofy too - I like that they tried to position it, but it would have looked better slid down a bit so one side is actually...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    I liked your comment because I appreciate the realness of the Warbow hate, even though I’m glad he got made.

    Well this is super fucking cool.

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    The list of characters from that era who have yet to be remade has dwindled to almost nothing at this point. I think we were discussing it in a different thread recently, but it must be close to single digits! My prediction is that the very last holdout is going to be Impossible Man.

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    This is more or less where I'm at. If a character's only previous figure was made pre-Infinite series/2014 (by either Hasbro or Toy Biz) I mark a newly announced figure as "Quasi" new. And yes, I'm tracking all of this in a spreadsheet - don't judge me, we're all nerds here. This is basically...

    One A Day 2.0: Day #317 - Midgard Serpent

    The overall color scheme of the green pants/brown (red?) coat is better as a total design. But I do love that green jacket. I'd happily take either for a FA Blade! Now that we've opened to door to wired goods I can see a modern Blade with wired trenchcoat getting made in some form or another...

    Make My Marvel McFarlane!

    A Supreme Intelligence in this format would get my attention.

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    New characters are the lifeblood of the line, and personally I still think they're doing alright. Even if you only focus on mainline Marvel comics/616 characters, in 2025 we got at least 23 brand new characters and 7 who I think should count given the age of their previous iterations...

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    I absolutely love Odin - one of the best things they've put out in recent years. I would hope they'd have a little more latitude for large/high priced items to linger a bit knowing that it's a tougher sell for folks. Asgardians have clearly never been at the top of the priority list, but the...

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    Those Asgardians plus Heimdall are some of the very rare exceptions where I'd be almost as happy to get modern iterations as classic ones, so long as the moderns were from the Straczynski & Coipel / Asgard in Oklahoma era - the right versions to go with Maximum Thor. I love this run and these...

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    Thor went up today at all the usual Fan Channel places for those who like to preorder things. I'm personally really stoked for this one but holding off on pretty much all preorders these days - not going to worry about getting one in ahead of time unless he starts to presell out, which I don't...

    One A Day 2.0: Day #317 - Midgard Serpent

    I'm definitely guilty of this. Despite knowing she's been showing up regularly to bother the Avengers since the 70s, she still doesn't make my mental shortlist of their main villains. That said, I'd still definitely pick up a figure. The story I most closely associate with her is the Heroes...
