Full passes all around today. Not only because of the cinematic theme, but the X-based theme as well.

Nah, I think the window closed on that for me. Got the Fassbender/McKellan and McAvoy/Stewart mash-up pack and they almost immediately went to the fodder bin.

Pass on them all.  Not doing much mcu these days and don't want to start on fox.

I'm with the others so far.   Pass all around.  Time has moved on and I think these versions have had their day.  Maybe the kids at that time, who are around 30 now, will be interested.

All passes for me too, I’m afraid.  Not really a movie figure guy, and these have lost some of their nostalgia for me to.

I want to say yes to at least some of these, but I think the only one I could go for from this particular movie would be Deathstrike. I'd rather hold out for X-men figures based on the team's costumes at the end of Apocalypse and risk getting none over the black leather. Add Deadpool Colossus and DP&W masked Wolverine, First Class Banshee, Days of Future Past Warpath, and I can be happy until they do on-screen versions of Rogue and Kitty closer to the comics.

I’d have Artie but that’s all.

Movie still holds up pretty well. I’d be down for Nightcrawler and Lady Deathstrike for sure.

I get what your saying, but it’s not like there isn’t reuse potential in a thin, toned buck like that:

 

 

..for example.  Note that none of these characters have been produced yet.  Hasbro could get some mileage out a buck like that.

Diablo

Nightcrawler and suited Wolverine would be my priority choices here.  But I'd get the other suited X-Men and whatever X2 Colossus they could put together.  Don't really need Stryker, Deathstrike or another film Magneto.  If they did a better film Prof. X I'd probably bite.  So I'd be in for about 2/3 of what was shown.

Day #916 - Lash, plus the original Human Torch and Toro (Archive Day #237)

Really Hasbro? 20+ years and we still don't the character that started it all? At the very least Jim Hammond should have been an 85th anniversary figure, literally celebrating 85 years of Marvel. Or at least a 2-pack with Toro. Then of course there's that Invaders boxset that should have happened...

No interest in Lash, but I would LOVE an Original Human Torch and Toro. With caveats:

1) Both flame on heads must be featureless

2) I want Jim in both powered and unpowered states (unpowered costume to reflect his West Coast Avengers look)

3) Toro must be made on the smaller "teen" body.

I made an Original Torch figure using the latest retro carded Human Torch with the Marvel Select head. And honestly that satisfies me. So they'd have to make it look pretty good to make me spend money on it right at this point.
