Yeah, but those mask ears, tho...

Also, how much will the two-pack be? If it's $60ish (don't laugh, I know we're completely f***ed with this tariffs bullsh**), I'd rather get an extra figure for that extra $10ish, lol

Fair enough. The old double elbows on him were a bit clunky, and these will certainly look better in straight arm poses. I'm wondering if he has articulation under his belt for his waist. The articulation from the stream almost looks like they're using a ball peg:

I imagine this guy is going to get a Maximum release on this buck within a year, for those who don't want to buy SS. Maybe they'll even add toe joints.

I think based on the official images and some of the poses they hit with him - he definitely has a torso rocker (ball?) and inverted hips.

I couldn't get many of my Wolverine figures' arms to bend much further than this photo at the elbow.
 
I don't usually upgrade my figures when better versions come out, because I spend enough on new characters, but that Psylocke will be mine. I have no use for another Thanos, so he'll be getting sold for sure. I'm positive I won't get much for him or the older Psylocke though, since lots of folks are doing a similar thing. Man, that old Psylocke's secondary market value drop is gonna be whiplash-inducing. Might be the biggest value decrease ever. People were asking so much for her for so long.

Also 100% getting Shuma, that thing is gorgeous. I've been thinking I would have to use my Heroclix Shuma in a MVC display, so I'm glad to be able to keep him with my other colossal clix instead.

Very excited for this sub-line to continue, even though I already own nearly every figure on the Marvel side of MVC2. Hopefully someone will be able to step in and make us the more obscure Capcom characters at some point in the future. I would kill for a 1/12 Captain Commando.
 
Deffo getting Juggs, and was going to get Shuma too but was not expecting him to be so huge. I wonder if they designed him based on the MoM film but the first wave didn't do the expected numbers so they shelved him until now. The actual design is great, the eyeball is beautifully done, I just wish he were smaller.

Wolvie, Cap and Psylocke look really nice, if there's anyone out there who still needs those guys. Not too fussed about the rest of them though.

X-Men 97 Cyclops with the VHS head is the easiest path... only have a minimal amount of paint apps to remove with Goof Off :)

I actually am one of those heathens who love the cel shading on my VHS figures so I’ll be using that figure stock. Also the detailing on cyclops is subtle enough for me to not worry about bothering with hegemony of any sort. It’s not any more distracting than a steel blue war machine or a baby blue venom at least, right?

Haha well that's subjective - it would bother the hell out of me, but I'm a little nuts in that way :)
 
I posted something similar on Fwoosh, but for me I'm stoked this Cap doesn't have chain/scale mail on the torso. The Captain America I grew up reading as depicted by John Byrne, George Perez and Mike Zeck rarely looked to have any mail or texturing to his uniform.

There are plenty of recent Cap figures with that texturing - 80th anniversary and Secret Wars being two good examples. I'm glad to get one that doesn't have it here. It's literally the main reason I'm going to buy this 2-pack.
 
Need them all, buuuut I dislike the exclusivity spread solely on the Target set being a wild card in Canada.

EB seems to be locking down most Target flow this past year, but even that is blink and miss it.

Whatever, we all have our own exclusive gripes.

I'm gonna get em all hell or high water.
 
I feel like I'm the only one worried that they're making Wolverine too tall again. Am I crazy?

Which other characters do we already have that would go with these MvC versions? These are the ones I can think of:

Cyclops ('97 with TAS head)
Storm ('97 with retro card head)?
Rogue ('97)?
Gambit ('97)?
Cable (Zabu wave)
Marrow (Nemesis wave)
Spider-Man (Maximum)
Hulk (Maximum)

Retro carded Modular Armor Iron Man with the cannon?

I haven’t had a chance to watch the livestream yet, but from some of the photos I’ve seen, these look great!

Are Wolverine and Juggernaut all new?

Cap vs Venom is a very cool set. Love the effects and colors.

War Machine vs Omega Red is actually my favorite. Loved playing as them. The colors on War Machine look so cool. I love this body for him. Anything new? The cannon? Does Omega Red have a new head?

Psylocke is a huge improvement. Thanos really needs new arms with better range of motion.

Shuma Gorath looks amazing!

Oh shit, looks like I'm picking up another ML figure all of a sudden. Unless Shuma Gorath is like a hundred bucks.

I mean... there's no way its less than $75, but given where their pricing has been... I think $100 isn't out of the realm of possibility.

I'm betting that Juggernaut clocks in at around $65-$70 (Gamerverse Venom price plus an extra tariff kiss).

These 2 packs are at least $60 each, right? new tooling, extra googahs and tariff threats driving the price up...
 
I don't feel like $100 for that Shuma Gorath is awful? Do I want to pay that much? Hell no but it wouldn't hurt so bad once I had him in hand. $80 would feel a lot better.
 
Looking closer at War Machine, it looks like a lot of new parts. New head, upper and lower torso, and new pauldrons, forearm armor, belt, shoulder cannon, and blast effect. Very cool.
