Angel was the winner of that stream. Mostly just updates for me here. (Lilandra, Sabretooth, and that much needed Angel) Goblin Queen is the only new comic character I can add to the collection. 

The flame base could be for dozens of characters so it seems like an overly-broad hint.  Since they just hit Dark Phoenix, Firestar, and Ghost Rider recently my guess would be more towards Johnny Storm or Sunfire.

Given that we've now gotten most of the other top-tier characters in premium forms over the past few years my guess is that it's Human Torch from some sort of premium Fantastic Four wave or set.

Dwight choosing the Moondragon/Drax 2-pack as his wild card pick made me very happy 😀 

Leaked runored list still undefeated.

Warren and Lady Mandarin look incredible, as did the press pics of Lilandra. Off to a good start to 2024! Still holding out hope for an Outback Psylocke this year.

I’m still unimpressed with Hasbro’s attempt at Sabretooth, but I’m glad they didn’t make him TAS/Hulk sized. 

Very happy to finally get Angel! Long, long, long overdue, and they have at least 3 Angel variants they can make from it pretty easily (Blue, X-Factor, Mimic - not sure Warren's first graduation suit would sell, maybe in a two-pack with Kitty's homemade costume as X-Men Fashion Disasters). 

Not feeling the Brood Wolverine as I forgot all about that look and thought Wolvie as Fang was right there for them, but I do want that Lilandra. Surprised by the Psylocke choice, given they have been making such headway on the Outback team. Patch looks great.

I was happy to see some exclusives announced, I think as long as Walmart and Target still want exclusives then the line overall is still something they are interested in.

Dwight: "energy, fire, otherworldly thing". Phoenix? Magik? Ghost Rider? Mephisto? Vengeance?

My ex-wife?

Maybe ... just maybe ... the Golden Age Jim Hammond Human Torch and I can FINALLY have my Invaders boxed set?

Or maybe not.  I've learned to just roll with it.  I'm sure it'll be fun whatever it is.

What's wrong with him?  People have been asking for him on this Omega Red body for many years now.  Not sure what else to do to make him more like the Jim Lee Sabretooth than what they did on this figure.  Anything I see wrong with this new version would be nit-picks like not upgrading the Omega Red legs to be pin-less.

I was genuinely disappointed by the Lady Mandarin/ninja Wolverine reveal, was definitely expecting Psylocke’s armored look. And I don’t need that Wolverine again. Might pass. Not thrilled with Brood Wolverine/Lilandra, but I’ll still wind up buying. The other two 2pks are definite purchases. Sabretooth still actually looks too small, maybe his head looks too big?

Happy about the updated Falcon Cap, meh on Hydra Cap, psyched out of my mind for Angel.

It would be great if the flame base is for Magma, signaling they are finally getting around to the missing New Mutants.

I missed his otherworldly hint.  The problem is that the top of the base looks like a rectangular plug that goes into something else, so whoever it is appears to fly.  That seems to rule out Ghost Rider or Mephisto, plus it doesn't look big enough for a Mephisto.

Gotta mull that over...

I won't mind having an official Falcon Cap release with wings. I made my own... so long ago... that have somewhat stood the test of time, but these will be nice upgrade.

She was one of my initial guesses, but she doesn't fly so I ruled her out.  Plus she's not "otherworldly."

I don’t love the headsculpts, the one reminds me of the Toybiz series 5 Sabertooth and the other is a step up from the Bonebreaker wave head but that half cowl looks very tight . I have no problem with the buck or deco. 

I'm guessing:

Angel in red - deluxe set at retail

Angel in blue - Pulse/fan channel

Can't believe I was right, but also....

It's about flippin' time!
