MAFEX loves pushing out releases so I have to pay AmiAmi for shipping every month.
I was actually debating on getting some custom made ones of better quality for my older figures to replace the old ones anyway. But that's not cheap. Lol.
No Way Home Tom Holland is coming, but not the final swing suit everyone wants. No idea why they're taking so long for figures from this film when Spider-Man is usually Medicom's bread and butter.
Booooo, I could not give less of a toss about that Tom suit, give us the Final Swing! Also, that gold looks kinda pale, no?
Hobby Search has had some Marvel restocks:
Spider-Man (Classic Suit) #185 https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10897254
Psylocke https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10723866
Storm https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10862019

According to DCSG81 both Captain America (comic version) and Phoenix are both delayed to July now
I've got too many versions of this suit already, this month's mafex offerings are a pass for me, thankfully. I am curious to see what they do for AG Spider-Man. If I'm not mistaken, he was the first figure in the mafex line. I never wound up getting the SHF version after they dropped the heads, so I'm in need of an AG Spider-Man to complete the trio.
I love the movies, but have zero interest in MCU figures. I am completely baffled by the interest in a costume that Tom Holland wore for less than a minute of screen time in which he did nothing but swing through dim lighting.

He's back to being a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, and he's doing it in the first MCU suit that looks almost exactly like his classic comic costume. There's no more to it than that.
Kaiju Daddy has reported both Captain Americas are pushed back to Aug while Phoenix is still releasing in July
Also the Into the Spider-Verse Miles is getting a July/Aug reissue
Tiger Stripe Wolverine getting a restock to coincide with Deadpool 3 (no word on a Deadpool reissue but might be possible)
I really want to talk myself out of Phoenix since I'm likely to get the ML as well, but there's no denying that Mafex looks like an amazing figure. Probably should get an order in before she starts shipping.
Really waffling on Bane - need to cut back on stuff, but he *also* looks great!
The Phoenix is worth it to me for the gold paint alone, it looks so much nicer than the crappy yellow-gold plastic the ML versions always go with. That said, I'll probably end up picking up the new ML version purely to nab the stand/firebird accessories.

I do wish the Mafex one came with some fire effects to convey her powers

I'd bet significantly more money than Phoenix costs that Medicom will release a Dark Phoenix that comes with flame effects.
I'd bet some money, but less, that such a hypothetical figure comes with enough flame effects to boost her price above most Mafex figures.
