Phantom Rider would be fantastic, I don't care that much about his horse. Warbow would explain Dwight's toothpick thing. More Crystar figures are always welcome. That Iron man armor looks pretty cool. The rest seems decent enough but those are the most appealing to me.
Agreed the arrow in green 100% fits for Warbow. I'm sure that's what it was
Wasn't sure if I should start a whole thread for this or not, so I'll just drop it in here...
Did everyone's Spider-Man 77 pre-order get pushed back to August? I was charged on May 28th for it and it kept saying that it would ship soon and then it suddenly was delayed until August.
@dathing Mine actually got cancelled, both Spidey '77 and Spirit Spider. I was sucessfully able to re-order both but they weren't both available at the same time so am not getting free shipping now. The new orders do both have releases projected for August, but 2 weeks apart now.
Found a Jean Grey XFactor figure at one of my local Targets. Didn’t think she was shipping yet til July. But it looks like she is making her way out there.
Edit: Never mind. Got street dated for 7/20. Utter bs.
As usual I agree with many of your point and it always makes me happy to read some Betsy love.
I specially agree we could still have a Maximum figure of her, but most importantly, I desperately need them to give us Betsy in her Disassembled era costume as you said. It's my favorite look for her and she would be an amazing figure with all the accessories they could include: the new psychic knife and butterfly as well as the tk sword and shield.
I think the next we'll get will be the Outback one then they can giver us a figure of her in the Disassembled uniform. (I wouldn't mind the pink puffy sleeves as well if they include a Silvestri alternate head. He drew her with much flattering hair.)
I guess my fav look for Betsy/Psylocke is the 90s Jim Lee (For nostalgia mostly, since it was everywhere) but her Disassembled costume is a close second, and I haven't even read that arc. I think it's partly because she is finally back in her own body with the lighter lavender hair, but mostly it's just an awesome costume design and the colors really pop. And yes, it would make a kick-ass action figure. I really hope they get to it soon.
The Outback and puffy sleeves outfits are cool designs, but I don't have a strong desire for them as figures. But Hasbro could convince me to buy them if they each included newly sculpted psychic energy effects. Butterflies, knives, etc.
Agreed that alternate heads with different hairstyles, especially artist-specific, would be fantastic. I'm still waiting on a Cockrum/Byrne Phoenix.
Outback Psylocke continues to be my number #1 want, but I would love to see a Disassembled figure too. I'm not as keen on Betsy's Captain Britain, but it sort of baffles me that we don't have one of those yet, considering how long (and through how many titles) she's now held that mantle.
I always love to see some Disassembled Betsy love in the community. That being said, I really really think we are long overdue to finally have Betsy in her original body in figure form so any version of her in it coming next would make me very happy.
My personal preference would be : 1. Disassembled 2. Outback Armor 3.Pink Puffy 4. current/extinct X-Force and then current Captain Britain in 5th.
I only keep one version of any character, and the Jim Lee ninja costume is my preferred look for Betsy. Unfortunately I missed out on the Target pre-order. Go figure. I missed the Apocalypse BAF wave version years ago also so the only figure that I have of her in that look is the Toy Biz version. I do need a stand-in for Kwannon/Revanche as well, which for now has been the one that came in the Nimrod 3-pack.
So, I stopped actively reading the comics before the Disassembled costume was relevant but it IS a nice look for her. I'd definitely still want Outback AND the pink Alan Davis costume with the puffy sleeves first. But if they make Betsy in her Disassembled look I'm buying it for sure.
The pink Alan Davis costume is my preference, as I’m unfamiliar with the whole Disassembled thing. But having looked at that costume, I think I’d take it. Basically just something other than the damn ninja outfit.

OMG - so much this. I don't know how many Psylocke figures I've bought over the years - but it's ALOT and they are always only the ninja costume... mostly in the blue/purple but occasionally in black. I have ONE Psylocke not in the ninja outfit - the X-Men costume from the 3-pack. It's time we get something else.

Hey, don't forget the "Lady Mandarin" two pack!
But seriously, her pre-ninja costumes (puffy sleeves/Outback armor) or something more modern (Disassembled/Captain Britain) would be very appreciated. We've finally started getting some non-Jim Lee Rogue costumes...it's time for Betsy to get the same love.
I think the chances of getting different costumes for Psylocke in Legends are much better now that they have given us a very sorely needed, much-desired (sold out in 8 minutes), fantastic update to the Jim Lee ninja outfit.
I just hope I can find one. It sold out while I was in the checkout process.
