    I don't make battle displays so something like that is out for me. Otherwise, yeah, I'd probably go for something like that.

    not a bad idea. Mainly using him since I've already got him, plus his costume is kinda non traditional colors, being red and black, so it still kinda works.

    If you swap him out for Spinarette you'd have an alt version of A-Foce looking at the team you've got assembled. :lol  Who are you using for Iron Man again?

    I’ve been waiting patiently for Longshot. Very patiently. I have a Dazzler figure. I’m not a huge Mojo person. I loathe Hasbro for making me have to buy this boxed set just to get Longshot.

    Gonna use the Hydra Stomper (piloted by Steve's grandson) and also gonna use the Hologram Ironman as a dead Tony who copied his mind and is using an arc reactor to generate a hard light construct to interact with the physical world. Also adding in Defender Strange as well plus Yon-Rogg repurposed as the male version of Mar-Vell.

    Look at it this way... Mojo should be very easy to flip.

    Speaking of head swaps, new heads on old bodies has some really awesome results.

    Looks great! I’m in for two at least. Plus Firelord. Bagman I couldn’t care less about and I bought that issue off the spinner rack.

    Yeah, I am conflicted on Bagman. It’s funny but is it $25 funny? Since it’s exclusive, I will order. And think about it

    Good point. Guess we will see the cost of the set. May not be worth it to me for the initial investment and trouble. It shouldn’t be this hard to complete teams. We also still need Armored Psylocke and Gateway for a reasonably complete Outback X-Men team.

    Genius set development and marketing though, as always.

    I figure Bagman will be the sort of figure that's easy to sell to someone else if you decide you don't want yours. I'm still torn on whether it's funny enough to spend 2022 Marvel Legends prices on, but I'm at least going to try to get a preorder in.

    The news inspired me to finally get back to watching Japanese Spider-Man, and it turned out I had a hell of an episode waiting for me.

    From the episode opening on crucified Spider-Man
    Screenshot_20220518-234347_YouTube.jpg

    To it ending with the Interpol spy Spider-Man was trying to save dying of an untreated gunshot without ever getting to see his son because the rule or drama means he couldn't just go to a hospital first
    Screenshot_20220519-002414_YouTube.jpg

    It was a wild ride. I can't imagine what watching this every week was like for children of the 70s, or how powerful their brains must've gotten from it

    Is Marvel doing the no gun thing now with Sharon? I can't believe she doesn't come with a single one when that's pretty much all she used in the show from what I can remember.

    Got Supaidaman, but no Leopardon (probably botched those names)....boo fail. I kid, I bet that probably will end up on Hasbro crowd funding project even though you could do that without it.

    MODOK in purple does look a bit badass.

    Could always get a Classified Lady Jaye and do a head swap. That would at least look really close to that Sharon Carter.

    Just a random pic of Frog-Man and not, it has nothing to do with that latest
    She-Hulk TV show trailer
    at all.

    Absolutely... definitely...

    Belated realization on Long shot - I wish he had an alternate smiling face, because I still think of him as happy-go-lucky as opposed to stoic. Maybe it can be included in a solo re-release later on?

    I believe so yes, though I'm not sure if there'll be an exclusive window for Premium Pulse members like there are for others things, and if so if that'll mean 12pm/1pm EST or 1pm/2pm EST for preorder drops. And this also assumes Target puts up Bag Man on time, which they didn't do with Spiderverse Spidey Noir.

    I could've swore she did use those sticks she came with at one point, though yes not including a gun is odd.

    I've thought Leopardon could be a candidate for a HasLab, but I also thought it would stretch the possibilities of what Spidey's able to sell.

    I'm not as familiar with Japanese mech toy options, but I think right now the best Leopardon toy option out there is still the Soul of Chogokin release from Bandai/Tamashii Nations, which is tiny (about the size of a normal ML figure itself). It's a definite opportunity, but pretty obscure for a crowdfund idea, especially with his logical partner figure now being released at retail and not exclusive to a crowdfund release.

    I was kidding on Leopardon being a candidate for HasLab, but now what you just said. Well I might not be wrong at all.
