    I'm thinking she will be the custom... just gotta sculpt some extra hair! I think she'll look noticeably better when the belt is pushed down properly. It should be closer to her crotch than her chest.

    Well my other reason for thinking it couldn't be her was that the hair on the side of her head looks non-existent in the silhouette, more like the shaved head mohawk Storm. The fact that they painted hair on her... ok, I suppose. But Rogue never had a mohawk, just a skunk stripe in her brown...

    While cool, I figured that one was some Savage Land friend of Shanna's (like the one Colossus banged) or some Guardians alien I've never heard of. FotM Rogue would be far too A-list, as I thought the general MO of the Hasbro brass was to scrape the bottom of the barrel to guarantee that the...

    F@#$ yeah, Fall of the Mutants Rogue. THAT's what I'm talking about. Put her in a three-pack with blue Dazzler and a British pre-ninja Psylocke, and I'd shut the hell up... or at the very least take a break before clamoring for the Excalibur ladies three-pack.

    I don't disagree with the later point, as I have no use for cheap 5-POA SW figures or $10 for DC figures that have pinheads, shitty articulation, and weak sculpts. But I'm not paying ML/MOTUC prices for 4" figures either, no matter how articulated they are. I was fine with $8-10 MU figures...

    Marvel Infinite 2015

    Eddie summed it up pretty well: While I certainly want well-sculpted, highly-articulated $8 figures, I realistically understand that's not going to happen. Yes, the price SUCKS. But when they only produce two waves a year, and I only pick up three figures total out of those waves, the...

    something >>> nothing At the very least, you could take the good parts and bash together a tolerable improvement from other good Joe and MU figures. Beats starting from scratch.

    Yeah like fogger said, he's a Spidey villain. He's essentially a bad ripoff of Sandman. Except with water. Very original.

    Again, I could list 100 characters that I wish they'd have made by now... but I can also list 100 that I thought I'd never see. When I say "happy", I don't mean that in the "woohoo!" sense, more of a "it could have been worse" sense. I do admit that I hate the soft plastic they use on these...

    I would argue that the MU line has had a good run. While there are tons of x-men related characters I still want to see done, if they announced tomorrow that they were just going to stop, I can't exactly complain. It's lasted waaaaaaaaay longer than I ever expected and given us some great...

    They also failed to put up Northstar and Juggerlossus from that wave (shortpacked?). But at the new prices and the fact that HTS charges sales tax, I can buy them off ebay cheaper! That's just sad.

    Except the whole thing with ongoing comics in general is "the illusion of change". They don't want to actually radically alter the characters or worlds. They want the illusion of change, the appearance of character progression, and the constant threat of "things will never be the same". But...

    Oh, very much so. Seems like every decade needs a way to thin the mutant population. Legacy Virus, the destruction of Genosha, House of M "No More Mutants", etc. It's tough to push the persecuted minority angle when there are a crapton of you in mainstream society. Expand - Contract. Every...

    The art from that article (Extrordinary X-Men by nobody and his third cousin) looks like it was lifted from a 90's X-Men book. But that's what you get when they take the top creators off the x-books. We went from Bendis and Immonen doing a top tier All-New X-Men book to Dennis Hopeless and...

    I know they've been around a long long time. I have never found them to be interesting in the slightest, but that's merely my perspective. Again, not hating on your opinion, but this is just how I see them, i.e. total-zero characters. There was a lot of speculation last year when all the FF...

    While the Byrne run is considered legendary, I really liked the post-Byrne Claremont era with Smith, Romita, & especially Silvestri far better. If I were stranded on a desert island and could only bring one run of 50 comics, it would be Mutant Massacre through the end of the Outback era. The...

    The Inhumans should join Cyborg Superman, Ben Reilly, Azrael Batman, US Agent, and Coy & Vance Duke in the Hall of Fame for Shitty Substitutes.

    While I respect your opinion, I couldn't disagree more. The recent flood of Inhumans are Disney's attempt to push mutant-like characters whose movie rights aren't owned by Fox. It's their work around to the "X-Men problem". The problem with that plan is that the characters are completely...
