As the proud owner of a "Disco Sucks" shirt, it was really about this. I just like railing against the thing that feels corporate and stale, especially as a fan of all the music I just gushed about a little ways up the page. Every movement/ sound/ scene is eventually ruined once some douchebag...

Listing a critically high volume of my favorite bands here. In my humble opinion (likely because I grew up with my old man blaring it constantly), early seventies Mick Taylor Stones is the best Stones. And early, weird Blue Oyster Cult pairs superbly with reading seventies horror comics. My...

Even Vincent Price! P.S - the seventies were the literal only decade where "Theatre of Blood" could have been made.

1) Kitty Pryde (Training Uniform) 2) Psylocke (Mutant Massacre) 3) Valkyrie (Classic) 4) Dani Moonstar (New Mutants) 5) Wolfsbane (New Mutants) 6) Namorita (Classic) 7) Hepzibah 8) Mantis 9) Hellcat 10) Magma 11) Karma (New Mutants) 12) Firebird 13) Nikki Gold 14) Miss America 15)...

I'm curious what eras are prioritized for world and team-building. DCUC felt very bronze age-y, Marvel Legends is sweeping enough that it's covered at least a bit of everything (Golden Age notwithstanding, sorry SD). Like, what version of the Justice League will we see them try to build out/...

Upgraded Suit Miles Morales is $11 on Amazon at the moment: https://www.amazon.com/Spider-Man-SPD-Legends-GVERSE-2/dp/B0D9ZTC95M/?tag=enewsi-20 Now that is a ten years ago impulse buy level of discount!

Why sir, add in Doc Savage (who, in the original graphic novel, created the Rocketeer's jetpack!), and I'm absolutely IN! I love crossover stories like that ... I always wanted to have Indy and the Howlers on Skull Island.

One of my favorite ML figures. And one of my favorite characters, which made the figure all the better!

Recorder would make a great figure! Especially if they went high effort with the panel on his chest being removable -- kinda like the Playmates Data, if anyone remembers that figure. Also yes to Tana Nile. She's the exact kind of weird and the exact era I collect with enthusiasm.

This, broadly. At this stage, I have moved into roughly pre-1990 displays for reasons of both space and funds. I used to be willing to research an unfamiliar character to psyche myself into wanting a figure, but I've shifted to only wanting characters I have an existing need for/ attachment to.

My first Mezco arrived in the mail yesterday ... Doc Savage, the Man of Bronze! Usually Mezco's price point makes their figures cost-prohibitive for me, but I love Doc too much to pass up his first-ever action figure. I couldn't be happier with him, I carved out a whole shelf to display him...

I really want Green Goblin and Vulture, but I honestly feel secure that Hasbro will circle back around to every A and B-list Spider-Man villain given enough time. We've got to be due for a pinless scaled buck that they'll redo all the Goblins on (and maybe update Dreadknight, if we're lucky).

The exact artist I had in mind. One of my favorite X-Men storylines:

I could be talked into a Maximum Series Green Goblin, if he came with a flight stand, multiple gliders (FA broomstick), tons of bombs, bats, and effects, and alternate unmasked heads depicting each of his secret identities. Bonus points if they remember Bart Hamilton exists. Edit: Man would I...

Why make new characters when you can just reuse Hulk tooling from seven years ago? My money's on Cosmic/ Mecha Hulk like the Select figure. Easy reuse, with cool options for mechanized alt parts to jazz it up. High "cool factor" for casual collectors/ fans as "Terminator Hulk."

It feels like the sluggish economy and ongoing tariff concerns have made a lot of companies decide to reel back their offerings for the year. Fewer releases, safer character selection, reduced tooling investment ...

Not a character I'm familiar with. Neat look, she'd make a cool figure ... but not someone who would fit with my collection/ displays, so, she'd be a pass from me.

It's legitimately fucking insane to me that we have Animal Man and Deadman but not Batgirl, Catwoman, or Super Girl.

Yeah, I like Hulk, but I like silver/ bronze age Hulk, so I've been set with the character since the two-pack hit. Now bring on the bad guys!!

Well, it saves me money. Which is a pyrrhic victory. I was hoping to see some cool new toys to look forward to. Instead I bought some complete Kenner Star Wars figures I was missing.

Mine does. I'd actually like another shot at her for that reason ... although given how poorly I remember her selling, I do not see that happening.

I mean ... I got a Lee Dracula and a Cushing Van Helsing. I've wanted those since I was ten. So, at least those made it out. I guess hoping for Captain Kronos and the Reptile was setting myself up for disappointment. Universal, I just felt like there was so much more ground to cover. But again...

Absolutely, starting with Human Torch, Whizzer, and Miss America. Those I can kind of squeeze into my Avengers display, past that, I'd need them to commit to making enough to justify a dedicated golden age shelf. I've gotten really sick of orphan figures/ characters like Ikaris that I have no...

Doesn't look like any new Universal Monsters/ Hammer Horror stuff besides the B&W Red Death -- which, if I may be super pedantic for a second, makes no sense: that scene was in color: Hoping this isn't indicative that those licenses are running out of steam ... they're some of my favorite...

I also wouldn't say no to an update of FA She-Hulk, like they did back in the Fin Fang Foom wave. Short-lived look, I know, but I remember it really strongly from some of her early crossover appearances in "Marvel Team-Up," "Marvel Two-in-One," and "Avengers:" P.S. we are one Moonstone away...
