That is how they could sell Ace to me. Ditch the puffy flight suit.

So not sure how functional Ace is without the Sky Striker. A dude in a flight suit with nothing to fly doesn't make a ton of sense. And I won't be buying a Sky Striker as there is no space for it ... so I think Ace is the first on this list that I'm a 'pass' on.

As far as I remember Todd deliberately chose 7 inches to differntiate from Mattel - and I assume to not have people sit out releases and only buy stuff they didn't already have. Mattel could shift back for the same reason.

Wow... my two Cover Girl figures arrived today for me as well, and unfortunately each of them has one eye printed off center...on one of them its the left eye and on the other its the right. The heads with hats on are good, its just the standard heads with the issue. Its such a shame...

I have every Mattel DC figure and yet I still want exactly what you describe. I desperately hope they do not continue in 7 inch and instead make something similar to Legends in size. I do wonder if McFarlane will be allowed to continue figures under the DC Direct label... but even if he...

As someone who doesn't care for artist specific figures and doesn't like or want movie figures this actually sounds like a good thing. As someone who appreciates some uniformity or consistency in build and sculpt I'm actually interested in a bit more 'cookie cutter' approach compared to the...

I hope not. Batman movie figures suck. I hope Mattel doesn't waste a ton of energy on reproducing figures from 40 year old movies. I'd much rather they concentrate on figures from 40 year old comics instead 🤣

I'd be a for sure yes for Blonde Phantom in part just because it would vastly increase the odds of getting more of those golden age and WWII era characters I need - Hammond Torch, Whizzer, Miss America, Blazing Skull, GA Vision and on and on...

I have no doubt Hasbro will make you happy on that front. Snake Eyes is the closest thing Joe has to Spider-Man or Wolverine. They will exhaust every option and retailers will beg for the character as part of their exclusive line-up if possible.

Opinions are opinions. Mine is that I'd be happy maxing out at three alts per character tops with a bigger emphasis on new unique characters. Just because thats what I prefer doesn't invalidate other people's opinions (no matter how terrible they may be 😂) I would personally rather have...

Right... totally forgot those were already leaked/speculated. Malice and Doom 2099 would be awesome to get. Obviously anything Black Panther is an instant purchase for me. I've bought a lot of Captain America figures over the last couple of years so this would need to bring something new...

I've had that set so long I forgot other people didn't. It really is pretty great.

I trust that Max will turn out great - all their animal sidekicks so far have been really good. I definitely want Spearhead sooner rather than later.

I could see that.. I honestly might skip Pokerface though. Not sure his aesthetic meshes with my other stuff. I honestly thought long and hard about that before pulling the trigger on Melodia.

Tenime after a missed pre order is the sort of energy we need alot more of in this country right now... stick it to the man, man!

Being a 'Snake Eyes guy' is so basic. 😁 Its like having Wolverine be your favorite... booooring 😉

Oh I get it. And everyone is allowed to like what they like for whatever reason. I'm just partial to new characters over same character in different outfits, so even when the new character is derivative I'll take that over 'same ol guy' version 11.

So I don't think there is any way they are showing all of that at NYCC. One wave maximum will be revealed, so either the full Executioner(?) baf wave or the second Secret Wars wave - I'd lean towards the latter given the chatter at the end of the last live stream. I think its too early...

I mean... they'll sell us 12 different versions of Snake Eyes , but try to sell us a Snake Eyes/Deadpool mash up character and suddenly thats too much? Personally I'd way rather have a new chatacter - even if its derivative - than an endless stream of 'slightly different mute ninja' figures.

On the one hand Target pre-orders tend to be pretty limited and there was certainly plenty of Jean and Professor X available in store, so Mystique may be easy enough to get my hands on. Even so Target pre-order times remain hostile to the pacific time zone. I suppose they don't care since...

Stupid Target having its sales go live at 6 am on the west coast. I didnt think to set an alarm and by the time I was awake Mystique was sold out. I did get an order for Storm in... but missed out on the Classified figures too. Wish they would shift to 8 am pacific to be a tad more reasonable.

I hate Target pre-orders that go live at 6 am west coast time. By the time I was awake and online to order the 2 pack it was sold out at Target and Pulse. Gah.

Honestly... I don't need a Steam Roller. I can't say for sure I'd pass if he gets made, but I'm not in a hurry to see him in the line. Black Dragon on the other jand wpuld be an eager yes. In fact all 4 of the characters shown there - Iron Claw, Steel Raven and Mayday - would be instant...

Man... got busy Thursday and missed the cop. It looks like Entertainment Earth still has them up, but $35 each is already a stretch for these and EE'S shipping costs just make it a no go for me. They sold out at BBTS and I cant find it on Amazon, so I guess I wait and see if it shows up later

Huge yes for Dr Demonicus. I love the look of the character and would live to het a figure of him. As for Chitauri - nah from me. They started as movie characters and even shoe horning then into the comics doesn't make me want them.
