ML Secret Wars

Anyone have a recommendation on what to do with the Black Queen head that came with retro card Mystique?

I certainly understand how certain specific heads may not be terribly useful, but extra heads are my favorite accessories as a kitbasher. I'll always take whatever they can give us. I use them a lot and even for options on army builder bodies if nothing else. I've been know to buy figures on clearance just to have extra head options and that's true from not only Legends, but also Joe Classified, Star Wars Black Series, Power Rangers Lightning, Indiana Jones Aventure Series and more....

I don't hate them when they feel like they're a throw-in like with the '97 Morph who had two portraits plus Gyrich. I don't like them when it's like Black Queen with Mystique who only has one portrait of her own.

Do they pop in easily? I’ve got a couple that could use it.

Yeah it doesnt take much force at all to pop them out. I replaced 3 or 4 broken Cap shield clips. They come in different sizes too depending on the character, so you can get a cap shield to clip to a different part of the arm if you wish.

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 than the Human Torch, depicted as black with white-hot/yellow flames. That coloration plus the fact that she's curvier than most female super-types are her most defining characteristics. If they can get those two things right they'll nail the figure. It's also good news for Magma, cause they're really pretty distinct from each other.

It'd be super duper extra cool if Volcana came with an new, more classic head for Molecule Man. I know I'm dreaming now, but wouldn't that be something?

Somebody get this man a C-Clip shield.
 
You guys remember when Volcana gained the ability to turn to stone?

Just so y'all are prepared.
 
What other X-Men should we expect from this wave? A Cyclops or Colossus perhaps? Not in the rumored leaks as I remember, but I'll probably get the red Daredevil if he's a decent "definitive" version or looks better than the 3pk one. Red Elektra would be nice, though I don't know if she appeared in this series.
 
Daredevil and Falcon in the wave despite not being in the SW books is because they were in the original toy line in the 80's.

Cyclops was in the comic but never the toy line and with other avenues for release I doubt highly he will be released on a Secret Wars card
 
I'd take a new red elektra. The last one was fine but it had the pinned joints which are gummy and bow out, and single elbows instead of doubles. I'd consider a 2nd one just for parts lol.

I sincerely doubt a new Elektra would come in the Secret Wars line... Elektra has nothing at all to do with Secret Wars... not even Secret Wars II.

I am not clamoring for one but I'm sure they'll get an updated version out eventually.
 
Until Volcana is on my shelf, I don't want to see any character outside of Secret Wars I or the Mattel Secret Wars toy line in any subsequent wave. Any character in the Secret Wars II mini-series and adjacent single tie-in issues can just wait.
