Excited about Kaine. Really thought they'd cheap out on him but this is pretty much perfect. Chameleon looks great too.
Is it just me or is Marrow's skin color wrong? Isn't she supposed to be purpler? Seems to flesh-toney.
It's her post-surgery look where they made her look more conventionally attractive (because superheroines aren't allowed to be ugly), which they subsequently used for her Marvel vs. Capcom design.
This is the exact look I was hoping for, so I'm elated.
I'm in for all of the X-Men and Agent Venom. Everything looks great though.
Not the Holocaust we wanted. How. Just how.
What even is that one from? Having to watch with the sound muted because I'm on a work call.
Other than the letdown BAF, the rest look great! Very excited for the whole X-Men wave, the Savage Land Professor X (which is going with my '92 animated series figures), No Way Home Lizard, Kaine, and animated Chameleon!
I had no idea either. Looks like this is his look from an X-Force story. Ties in the Nightcrawler and Archangel they teased.
I would love for that Cable they brought out to get another run.
Okay, now I vaguely remember it from Uncanny X-Force from like 15 years ago.
This wasn't the BAF Dwight was excited about, right?
Kind of a bummer, because this definitely isn't replacing the original Nemesis for Me.
I do mostly hate the MCU (sorry) so glad it's a comic show.
I get preferring comic figures, and I get not liking some, if not all, the movies, but why do you hate the MCU?
Hate is a strong word, but too many of the movies have a lack of true danger or threats, dumb humor and dominated theaters to the point of saturation. Plus comic art is what I love. However the MCU did get me a lot of great comic figures and I really dig the early movies. Winter Soldier is great. I mean no offense.
2025 is a great looking year - this was an awesome start today, in for everything I think.
All of the reveals were good. Agent Venom being redone was a major want for me. Charles looks great and I have a second hoverchair waiting for him.
It sounds like 2025 will be a big Daredevil year with the anniversary, more X-Force is coming, more 90s X-Men coming. As with many, I would have preferred Nemesis be is AoA look to update the old BAF. It is a great figure, just not the look I think many were hoping for.
I'm going to buy SO many of those Target Professor X figures.
There are a silly number of Marvel villains who wear green jumpsuits - that is one useful fodder figure.
Everything revealed looks amazing.
The only figure I'm even considering from the live stream is the Savage Land Professor X. Everything else?

And I didn't take any offense. It's not like the MCU is my kid or something, heh. But I was genuinely curious and appreciate hearing your perspective. Yeah, some of them were really great, and I hope for more great ones to come. A lot of pretty cookie-cutter, which can still be enjoyable in the right hands. Sometimes it is definitely not enjoyable. I do feel a cinematic diet of only MCU is really unhealthy. BUT... I absolutely get wanting to have 3D comic art on the shelves, and while my preference is live action or realistic (since I'll sneak video game figures in sometimes), I'll take terrible movies if it means I get some figures from my wishlist, heh. There are more and more MCU movies I don't rewatch lately, but I'm glad to have a Kang, for instance.
Across the entire ML landscape, those of us that love the classic golden, silver and bronze age looks, otherwise known as everything pre-1990s are gonna have to wait until Dan and Ryan have moved onto other Hasbro IPs or "get sniped for management" as Dwight said a few years ago and Jesse is pre-occupied with other things. Then hopefully they will bring in newer people that embrace the entirety of Marvel - from the 1930s onwards.
Ultimately that's fine. The more they avoid the periods those of us in that demographic want, the more money I save. But I did appreciate the Adam Warlock confirmation with Ryan's tease.
As an X-Men fan, today's reveals were really exciting. The new BAF wave looks solid, eve though I won't be getting most of those since I collect mainly the most iconic looks for the characters and Gambit, Wolverine, Kurt and Scott are in lesser known outfits. And I don't care about Cortez. BUT! they all looks great and I will buy Marrow and Husk for sure. Wish Hasbro included and alternate head for Marrow with her more...rough look.
My favorite part of the reveal thought were the confirmations that we'll be getting more Savage Land and Capcom characters. Common Rogue, Shana and Psylocke! I need a good version of my girl in the Jim Lee costume. They have to go all in on her before we finally can give British Betsy some love.
Speaking of it, is it me or Dwight's tease looked like a psycho blast without its colors??? We know he loves outback Betsy.

I've seen every Marvel movie up to and including Endgame multiple, MULTIPLE times. After Endgame, I think just No Way Home. Most of the others I don't think I even bothered to re-watch when released on streaming. Says a lot.

Absolutely. And same here with rewatching everything pre-Endgame. Incredible Hulk I watched the least, but even Dark World I found rewatchable because of the stuff with Loki. I'm a little more forgiving with post Endgame though, as I actually liked Eternals and have seen that a few times. Deadpool & Wolverine, Guardians 3 and NWH I've seen multiple times now. Shang Chi and Marvels I've thrown on a few times each when cleaning or something. Black Widow I watched a second time. I rewatched Quantumania unwillingly. but Multiverse of Madness and Love & Thunder I'll be shocked if I ever try again. Wakanda Forever, I kinda hate to say, really didn't do a lot for me. Even beyond Boseman, a lot of that movie just made me sad.

More or less where I sit. Will probably get Kaine and Marrow, and that’s about it. Was hoping the mask meant we would get smoking jacket Chameleon, but nope. Might pick him and Electro up on sale if that happens. Relieved that the Nemesis isn’t a look I’d be tempted by.
As others have said though, these all look absolutely stellar. No complaints at all on the execution. I’m even wobbling on Husk, a character I don’t care a damn for, because the figure looks really cool.
Biggest buzzkill for me was them bringing out Ka-Zar and Zabu as a hint - and then just when I was excitedly hoping for Shanna, out comes Chuck Xavier…
Plenty of stuff to come for the classicheads, so no big worries. My wallet appreciates the breather!
