I love the hammer on his back detail. I agree that I found it a little goofy in the comic at first, but I eventually came to like it and it's the exact kind of attention to detail I like to see in my figures.

The tail spikes on the new Death Adder are so much spikier and more comic accurate than the old one! You're a damn fool!

He was also on that weird degraded version of the Bullseye body that got all blocky. Shudder. I will say, though, he has the exact same issue with the painted on boot tops. I really need them to stop doing that.

Promo pics of the Secret Wars wave. Glad to see Magik has a proper sword holding hand. The "resting" wings on Falcon look good - really glad he and Black Bolt have gotten both sets - this is a good practice that should be encouraged. They're clearly working their way up to an epic Stingray...

The only thing I could see the original having over the new one is the darker blues. Everything else about that figure sucks on its own, much less when compared to a much improved version. You can't even remove his tentacles!

Thor 100% feels worth the Maximum label to me, and he's the first figure to do so. Completely new and unique (save maybe some hands), a full complement of accessories, novel features that we don't see elsewhere in the line (wired cape, multiple face/head/hair combos), a cool pack-in Throg, and a...

Seems to me like this Magik figure (with a normal arm) easily gets us Karma, human Wolfsbane, and Shadowcat in her training uniform. I'd want to see Magma and Dani on a taller body, and Dani with her custom uniform flourishes (the boots and belt).

I posted in the other thread that I like Magik's yellows better - so to me, it doesn't seem like they match. Obviously we won't know til we have them in hand.

You're not wrong. I wonder how much they were trying to capture the likeness? They clearly are in the squareness of his jaw, but nothing else is even close. It seems like they're allergic to artist-specific portraits sometimes - which in general I'm fine with, but here it would have been great...

Love love love seeing classic New Mutants Magik. The colors look so much better than Sunspot! Hasbro, I promise you this is a team that will sell better if you release them in close proximity to each other - casual fans aren't piecing together the X-Men junior team from the 80s over a five year...

Man, I am just kinda totally blown away by this stream. Secret Wars wave Muse/Bullseye 2-pack Black Widow/Quicksilver 2-pack Onslaught X-Men '97 Archangel Maximum Thor Tons of great stuff, but it's hard not to say that Thor stole the show. Coipel Thor! Finally! Really great sculpt + artic, a...

Heroes Reborn hit right during that sweet spot as a kid where I was going to the shop every week and buying everything. Pretty sure I have every issue and read them multiple times. I still have basically zero nostalgia for them - maybe a tiiiny desire for that universe's Swordsman, and I'd take...

My West Coast Avengers display will not be complete until I get Thing in his black leotard with the red belt.

I still say there's a decent chance of a random Fan Channel release with the Gamerverse branding for Phyla cause of Cosmic Invasion. Not that there's any evidence to support that given the 0 ML tie-ins so far, but if the 30 year old Punisher/Fury set can get merch then why not?

Fat Cobra made it to my top 10 list a few years ago and he's not coming off until we get him! I'm not customizer, but I'm always eyeing new E. Honda figures for one that has the right stature.

My kingdom for an Orson Randall and the other Immortal Weapons. Still one of my all-time favorite runs. It's a straight crime we don't have any figures from it outside of the Dormammu wave Danny.

Volcana seems like someone they'd have pretty wide latitude in execution - she doesn't have a costume, per se, she's just "lady on fire", and that doesn't always get portrayed consistently. Color-wise, I hope they take their cues from Secret Wars - when she's powered up she's more like Sunspot...

I agree that Volcana makes perfect sense to be in a Secret Wars wave, but it's not thematic fit that's holding her back. If/when they decide to make her they'll fit her in wherever it makes the most sense for them to based on the budget for the wave. There's no shortage of options for how to get...

I'm also all about the new characters. To me, Constrictor, Falcon, and Magik are as good as new considering the previous versions are either hugely outdated or in costumes I don't have any use for. Absorbing Man is close to the same - I don't hate the BAF, but an improved classic version is...

The full list from Beamish's rumor/leak thread: Secret Wars Wave II - Added 4-9-2025 (from DMB) Constrictor Falcon Daredevil Spider-Man Absorbing Man Unknown sixth figure (possibly Magik from 8-3-25 rumor/leak)

He still got to have the cool flaming wheels even when he wasn't a skullhead. Spiked hubcaps were optional.

This classic Falcon better absolutely kick ass. We've been waiting 20 years for an upgrade!

The Feb 20th Fan Stream last year had a bunch of stuff - more than I remembered. Gamerverse Spider-Man wave Gamerverse deluxe Venom, Kingpin, and Wal-Mart exclusive Spirit Spider X-Force Warpath/X-23 2-pack X-Force Archangel I was only interested in the comic stuff personally, but that's quite...

Zabu is an incredible BAF - an all-time favorite. Personally, the lineup for that wave worked for me - 4 new characters (or 6 if you include Ka-Zar and Zabu - which I think is fair for anything pre-ROML). Cable I was more than happy to get in this look. Iron Man was the biggest disappointment...
