Got Quicksilver delivered from Walmart today. Pietro has always been one of my favorite Marvel characters. The blue costume probably makes more sense for a guy called Quicksilver, but I've always loved the green suit, so I had to pick this one up. Glad I was able to get him so easily.

I imagine a blue suit update will happen with a painted neck and better headsculpt like this one. My basic instinct is blue suit goes on Avengers shelf and green with the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Though his cloves and boots really should be a lighter green color and only the lightning bolt white.

I think this Quicksilver looks great with classic Avengers (especially with retro Scarlet Witch and New Vision).

Something like this (Credit to Youravgtoycollector)

Blue suit Quicksilver needs an update anyway. His colours just look too faded, almost discolored.

Main issue with the blue Quicksilver they put out is the lack of painted neck and terrible headsculpt

I thought they had the same head sculpt? New one has a printed face and new hair.

Two opportunities for reveals is exciting! The press release says they aren't doing a panel at MCM London but they do have a booth. I guess the times indicate when they will be putting out the product for each line..?

@h-bird Maybe so, yeah. I'm not expecting much from any of the lines, but maybe a figure or two. I definitely don't expect any MCU stuff, which is fine since it will be at 5am my time, heh.

Have no idea what they can even show. Another Spider-Man wave? 

Well, Dan Who will be there. Maybe we finally get Animated Chameleon on a retro card...

More X-Men 97 stuff?  Season 2 is coming out next year, right?

Rachel Summers Phoenix, Micro Max, Ferron, Kylun, and Cerise box set, with Widget pack-in accessory is what I think will get shown, at the UK show. 😉 Maybe classic 1st app. Captain Britain.

No, Season 2 will not come out until 2026, release date pushed because of rewrites (and Disney execs being fucking worthless morons).

I have a lot of feelings on this but I'm just going to agree on the "worthless morons" part and hold back on the rest.  It's late, it's been a long day......

And it will be an HMV exclusive.
