Hmmm: I guess the natural BAF candidate for the Widow wave is either something comic-based and big (a la Kree Sentries from the Captain Marvel wave), or a movie character that didn't need to be a BAF but becomes one anyways (a la Okoye, especially, and M'Baku from the Black Panther waves) Ditto Eternals and their BAF wave Morbius is interesting, but I doubt those and a Venom wave will be entirely film-based, so hello Spidey-adjacent waves. Morbius could even loop in some more horror-ish comic characters, which I'm down for if that happens. I'll believe FOX X-Legends when I see them, but I'd absolutely take a Michael Fassbender & James McAvoy Mags & Chuck Kingpin redeco in black? Monster Venom in black too, instead of metallic purpleish? I'll take either, as that'll probably be an easier means of completing a Shadow King with monster hands without trying to rebuy a whole other Kingpin and two more Monster Venom arms loose
Actually we've only gotten it once because the second one was a re-issue of the first one but with narrower boots IIRC.
Oh. Doesn’t seem like this one is, they never indicated it. But if it is then that blows. Hasbro needs to knock it off with these exclusives. They’re doing it with MLS and Black Series, and it’s becoming incredibly inconvenient for people who don’t have good stores around them. It’s not an exhilarating toy hunt, it just becomes a hassle
Well, since there is going to be a whole wave based around the game it’s probably not and my assumption is wrong.
regarding the recent rumors: - I like to get classic black Storm but my concern is getting a classic blue Cyclops because it's expensive now especially if I'm gonna look for Dark Phoenix 2-pack. It's like I'm 2-3 figures away from completing the Konami X-Men line up. - I'd like to have toy forms of Jackman, Reynolds, Fassbender and McAvoy - I hope Hasbro redo Sam Raimi Spider-Man in modern sculpting. - I'm interested in the BW wave With Avengers Endgame has ended and MCU will have a sort of rest period, Hasbro & Marvel needs to milk something from the movie franchises they owned or co-produced. So the Raimi Trilogy needs an update.
Edit: I'd absolutely lose it if we got this version of the neo-classic. Loved this annual issue. Yeah, I mentioned a few pages back that it'd be cool to get a V2 neo-classic with improved hips, shoulders, and ankle articulation. Definitely my armor of choice too, so would love to get a proper redo.
I dont see why Hasbro would spend the time making waves for something irrelevant. Not buying the rumors.
Nothing so far. They wouldn't pop up in any manifest more than likely until 6-4 weeks before hitting retail. If I find any store listings I'll share them but I found nada on them either so far. (that can be viewed publicly).
is Rekatangular's rumors reliable turning into confirm information? Any rumors he shared that went official or not?
Yeah, he seems to be pretty spot on. I know he has told us about Vintage and X-Men waves and has been right. I really hope the Black Widow build a figure is a comic Crimson Dynamo.
