    We're supposed to be getting comic Sersi in a two-pack with a new Black Knight for this year's Avenger's 60th Anniversary according to Rektangular's list. So far that leaked list has proven to be 100% correct and I'm pretty sure it was incomplete.

    I wish they'd just do a "Too Hot for Toy Aisles" Haslab and throw all of the never-going-to-retail figures in there.

    This thread has been quiet all day but bring up half-naked X-Men and everyone’s all in all of a sudden. LMAO.

    If for nothing else it would be nice to get figures of Trish, Opal, and Charlotte as a long-time X-Factor fan. I was so pissed when they wrote them out once the Blue/Gold era started and had them break up with Hank, Bobby, and Warren. But yeah, I'd take those three in normal attire OR these wonderful swimsuits. :lol

    I guess I'm the only one that has absolutely no interest in that version of Rogue.

    With Hasbro’s interest in the training costumes for X-men lately I wonder if there’s a chance we will get these anytime soon. They are the versions of Cable and Cannonball I really want.

    Yeah, those are my favorite costumes for both of those characters. Cable's costume is particularly memorable for me since it was used in MvC2.

    I hope the next they do Cannonball it's a New Mutants classic version.

    It's been more than three years since we got Dani. If they did Sam in the same style, we could finally get Doug and a younger Sunspot. When they teased that Sam was going to get his legs before the X-Force multipack reveal, I thought that was how they were going to do it.

    In for Cable, last time we got anything close in the Legends line, it was from Toy Biz and a variant at that.


    Needs the spamming spear too, hopefully with a removable affect part

    Cable is available in that suit in the Amazing Yamaguchi line. Not sure if it's still in the market.

    Yes. They did a version of Cable that came with his psimitar in the 4" line so I assume we'll get one when they do a version of Cable that wielded it.

    Don't think it's available at retail anymore unless it's getting a reissue and even then AY figures are insanely expensive and probably more than most people are going to be cool with paying. I've got Deku and Todoroki from MHA and those guys were around $85 each.

    Plus, that's not exactly the costume being referenced. It's a similar modern costume while the one we're talking about is from the late 90s/early 2000s.

    Came across the King in Black set and bought it. Like most Legends multipacks last year, I do think it’s overpriced. If you can grab it for $60 or close, I think that’s more reasonable.

    Knull is pinless and the red symbol on his torso armor is raised with a different finish than the rest of the armor. The head and neck are on ball joints that move well enough that they don’t need hinges. Butterfly joints and shin swivels(or above ankle swivels) are the only other joints I wish this had. The skirt doesn’t hinder hip movement as much as I thought it would. Would’ve been cool if the symbiote effects were molded separately from the sword.

    Venom is a big reason I got this set. I wasn’t planning on using the wings much and they are a tad heavy for it. Good thing they’re made out of a harder plastic that doesn’t feel prone to bending. The fit into Venom’s upper back is tight so I didn’t attach the wings all the way. Wasn’t sure how difficult it would be to take them back out. The wings are jointed in the middle and can detach there. The holes in Venom’s back for the wings weren’t too obtrusive to me. Some symbiote effects would’ve been cool to plug into the back when the wings aren’t used.

    Venom itself is a good use of the movie mold with a new comic head. Normally I’m not into movie molds reused for comic figures but this works as a modern comic Venom. The poseability is great, toe joints and shin swivels could’ve helped(above ankle swivels embedded within the lower leg preferably as that wouldn’t break the sculpt as much). It benefits from having a diaphragm joint instead of a waist swivel and having a deep ab crunch. For a big figure, this figure poses very well(I don’t have the Venom movie figure that came out a few years ago so this is my 1st time handling the mold). Of all the Legends Venom figures I have, this is the most poseable one.

    I thought the 2016 Venom was decent for an early McFarlane Venom. I’m a big fan of the monster Venom released a few years back as a deluxe(was a BAF with different deco before that). This new one poses better than both and is pretty much my modern Venom, I like the sculpted details from the movie mold, they lend itself well to a Venom figure in general.

    Would love to see a very similar buck based on this movie Venom buck used for a new Sabretooth. It’s about time we could get a Sabretooth that could pose like this and the build is just right for an early 90’s/modern version. I’d also be down for a cartoon based deluxe that’s bigger with 12,342 abdominal muscles
