I have been hoping someone like Figuarts would supplement. But alas, only got Carnage that way.

The Figuarts movie Venom is superb.  Best Venom ever.

I thought we're gonna get some new Marvel Legends reveals at Lucca Comics and Games.

Looks like it goes through Sunday 11/2, so they might be coming in the next day or two.

Revealed at Lucca

Fabian Cortez and Spot from Across the Universe.

Um, can we ever just get a regular comic version of Spot?

 

May be an image of toy, Superman and text

I was hoping for something exciting, like giant-sized X-Men Banshee or Mandarin.

Hopefully this means a full X-Men wave is just around the corner.

Fabian Cortez is a Day 1 pre-order for me, but I have zero interest in that Spot.

Fabian Cortez

Sounds like a nickname for the Italian Stripper.

Is this the same mold as Worthy Cap?  I was never able to find one at retail and have since forgotten why me and everyone else was so hyped for that figure.

The colors on Cortez don't look right. Aren't the Acolytes supposed to be in purple like Magneto?

Yes, that's Worthy Cap, although I don't think he comes with Mjolnir.  I assumed people wanted him because they loved Endgame so much and the scene where he picks up Mjolnir.

They also re-issued this figure in a 2-pack with Sam.  The main thing that the single-release you linked as well as the 2-pack below is that neither comes with a gripping hand for Cap to hold Mjolnir, but Worthy Cap did.  So if you want a Cap gripping hand in the Endgame style you still have to buy Worthy Cap.  I'm not sure any other Cap comes with the right gripping hand.

@h-bird yeah, generally speaking. Some colorists definitely used a shade closer to blue than purple, but that figure looks to be just plain blue. Maybe they wanted more separation between the body and cape? He also just plain doesn't look that great, but maybe it's the angle. His head looks huge relative to his body. Not their best effort.

I can see that - in which case I wish they'd gone with a red cape, or even just a lighter shade of purple. I'd hate for them to start a whole group like the Acolytes with the incorrect color!

Teaser from the panel in Italy. Any guesses?
