For the purpose of figures, I would want the WBN characters in color. But I didn't need to see the special itself in color. That's kind of defeating the purpose

@e-rock Totally. Honestly, it's kinda like splitting hairs for me, figure-wise. Do I want them to stand out a little more because of their unique colors (or lack thereof), or do I want them to blend in? Would be cool if Hasbro offered both versions, but that feels like asking too much.

A Hasbro Accountant's ear twitches.

Accountant: Did you hear that? They want repaints! Nay, they are DEMANDING repaints!

Re-release the figures!!!

No, Hasbro would never do this.

@schizm If you're able to check, how does the IW Widow vest look on the D+ Yelena?

Just received the full wave from Pulse, though I got extras of Fisk and Belova last week from Amazon. Not much to add to the discussion. There are strong individual figures in the wave, but the overall wave is boring.

I think my interest in What If? animated style figures has run its course. That and I have no frame of reference for Goliath yet, so it’s tough to get excited.

Agatha is the best looking traffic cone they’ve released in a while. Perfect likeness, but she’ll just be standing there til I can find a shallow stand for her to levitate on.

Fury and Talos are great too. I had no issue with Fury’s joints. They’re not the Coulson build, they’re the ones that originated with young Fury from Captain Marvel. Thicker. I love the removable cap. And Talos is an excellent new civilian body with good bulk. Are those D+ Hawkeye’s legs? I even like the shirt sculpt with the open collar.

Kingpin is great, though I wish he was a little taller. I get why they reused the Happy Hogan body though, so if that’s what was available, so be it. Wish his grip was tighter on his cane.

Yelena is fine.

Hydra Stomper is ok. Just makes me want a new Iron Man MK I even more. This has a cool retro Rocketeer feel to it. But something is weird about the proportions. Kinda want to see his shoulders more inset. It was interesting to see how the rotating shoulder pad set up works pre assembly. That’s really the best solution I’ve seen to shoulder pads and I hope that technique is employed on every figure that needs them from now on.

Feels like a long time since I’ve had an entire wave delivered to me in one shot, it just isn’t that impressive or anticipated. I’m way more hyped for the Mindless One wave.

The Hydra Stomper when I first got him I was hoping could at least maybe lead to something like a Hammer Drone or something with reuse, but then I did side by side with pics of Drones or Whiplash and don't think it would work. So my disappointment with it returned, lol! What If figures just don't do anything for me

That said, the wave is overall great. My favorite wave of year to date. Though probably will change when the NWH wave is shown off.

@ru1977 Not well.

@schizm You are correct, and I really appreciate you showing me! Thank you for saving me that trouble.

Got Agatha today from Pulse. She’s great! Excellent head sculpt. I like the dynamic translucent purple shawl thing. 

Got Kingpin from Amazon yesterday and I like him well enough. Feels like he's missing a lil sumthin', but he feels appropriately big, and looks good next to the others. Really makes me wish I'd picked up the Netflix Daredevil back in the day, but hopefully the She-Hulk condiment version isn't far off.

I ended up returning Fury, Talos, Yelena, and Goliath. I'll definitely snag them if and when they hit a sale, but it's been a tough couple weeks money-wise, and they unfortunately drew the short stick. Still sitting on Gamora, though. I have a feeling I might really like her once I see her in action on What If, and I'm not sure if I wanna take the chance of her becoming popular and selling out. She does make a cool looking toy, too.

3 weeks in and still holding strong

Dang. Maybe Target should start putting all seven figures back on store shelves instead of overordering only certain characters. 🙄 

Agatha has been selling well in my area, then Kingpin.

Is there a figure or two from this wave like Crossfire or animated Rogue and Storm that is only being sold online at Target? So far I’ve spotted Gamora, Kingpin, Agatha, Fury, but not Goliath, Belova, or the Skrull.

You nailed it. Talos, Yelena and Goliath are online only. Doing that to Yelena is a weird choice.

Looks like every figure in this wave is $5 off on Hasbro Pulse right now.
