ML Preorders and Fanstreams: April 22 - RIVALS Punisher & Moon Knight

I think I'll be passing on all of the Rivals. Punisher is kinda tempting but I'm thinking he's at least $35 and I don't like him that much. Luna looks cool, but the Spidey paywall will keep me from buying her.
 
The Box wave is excellent.
  • Three brand new characters - Marrina, Robbie Reyes, Box
  • Four modern characters/looks - Dark Avengers Hawkeye, Robbie, Lady Deadpool, Wolverine
  • Four classic characters/looks - Psylocke, Marrina, Box, USAgent
Only ones I don't care about personally are Wolverine and Lady Deadpool. Lady D is a big upgrade so I'm not mad about it, just would have preferred another newbie.
 
Passing on these particular Rivals, but in for the BaF wave. Not thrilled with Lady Deadpool, but my son has a Deadpool shelf so I'll give her to him. SO excited to be getting a proper Marrina that we've all wanted (Nita any time now), and even more thrilled it's the classic Byrne Box and not the Madison Jeffries one. And while I've not been building the Outback X-Men, I'll be happy to place this Psylocke on my Excalibur shelf (my own personal team line-up). Glad to be rid of the old Ninja Betsy.
 
A friend just said "they should've packaged Jeff with Rivals Squirrel Girl" and now I'm actively mad they didn't.
 
Good god — Robbie Reyes, Outback Armor Psylocke, Marina and Box in one wave? It's amazing. Dark Hawkeye and Forceworks US Agent are pretty nice, too. This is the most excited I've been for a full wave in a long time.

Well almost a full wave — thankfully I can skip that Wolverine.
 
With me being to lazy to look, was the Marvel Boy we got from a different time?
He had the green and white, short-sleeve look if I'm remembering correctly, though the version we got is close enough for me if we're only going to get one. (IIRC we got his sexy Young Avengers look last time.)
