Oohhh, It's Gambit.   I'd thought it was Wiccan in, like, whatever modern outfit he's wearing these days.

I was definitely thinking the cape could work for Wiccan but I didn't think the head - but a comic version, definitely! I hope we won't have to wait forever for an MCU Wiccan... but ECHO Echo echoooooo

To be fair, when I first saw it, too, before reading who it was, I thought the same thing.

Hasbro nailed the Florence Pugh frown.

Are there any other rumored AoA figures coming besides Gambit? I like how he came out, but he's never been a big want. I don't even remember reading Gambit and the Externals. Really hoping for Storm or Banshee or Quicksilver or a Holocaust redo. My favorite book from the series was always Generation Next, but the redesigns for Chamber and Husk weren't particularly special.

The execution on both of these figures - as well as the previously shown Fabian and Spider-Boy are all very nice.   The figures look good.    They will all be purchases.

 

I hope the other reveals are more inspiring as character choices for me though...

I'm getting many Agent Venoms.

Why not include splayed hands for Spider Boy instead of the thwippers if he doesn't... do that

Wow, so much great stuff today! I'm now planning on buying everything except Extreme Wolverine, Outback Prof X and Lizard.

Gen X Husk is the star for me. I'm already expecting her to be my favorite figure of 2025! Marrow, Fabian Cortez, Spider-Boy and female Electro are the other ones that I'm most psyched for.

I actually feel a bit of relief from these reveals. Not a lot I need or want but that's usually the case for me when all the reveals are X-Men or Spidey wave only. X-Factor Cyclops for sure and Nightcrawler from the X wave and just Chameleon from the Spidey wave it looks like. Disappointed no Super poseable Daredevil in the wave but I bet he will be a wave when Born Again comes out or Wave 2 of Secret Wars. They all look fantastic though. Hopefully, with the money I save this will allow me to buy any comic FF figures coming once First Steps comes out!

I'm relieved as well.  Those Marvel Megos are something I really want whenever they finally hit the Disney website.  Nice of Hasbro to give me a break so the wallet can breath a little easier 😉

@sgtstinky I'll be curious to see just how much comic FF love happens due to the movie.  Or will we just be stuck with a ton of MCU FF product with no comic items.  Certainly, we'll get something comic based.  The classic, Kirby uniformed FF could use a redo at least.

I'm expecting the only F4 stuff in 2025 will be movie stuff. That last retro card wave did so poorly that they may not be in a hurry to revisit, at least not during a year they're likely putting out MCU versions anyway. They might give the comic versions another shot in 2026. Part of me feels like they could just re-release the Walgreens versions in a box set (maybe with pinless tech) and be good. I feel like it they do them otherwise then it's not likely going to be in the standard uniforms and might be more likely to be in the Future Foundation white or something else totally different.

I bought so many extras of that entire retro card wave when they were like $6 each that I might never get rid of them all. I think that I have as many of those as I do extra Eternals movie figures. LOL! I also think that's a shame that they sold so poorly because I felt that the High Evolutionary, Human Torch and Psycho Man figures in that wave were all "FANTASTIC". I've got that flamed on version of Johnny standing in as a Jim Hammond for now.

Awesome Android is also a very obvious BAF choice.
