Yes to MCU High Evolutionary, no to Rick Jones...but I'd probably buy him anyway to use for civilian customs.

Well, I don't do MCU figures - but I will recognize that this is a figure that should be made for people who do buy MCU figures.   It's hard for me to comprehend that this guy didn't get a figure.

 

And yes to both a regular Rick Jones figure as well as an A-Bomb figure.   Both are pretty necessary for a collection.   Rick Jones has been a supporting cast member for way too many folks not to get a figure.

Wherever one can find a Rick Jones & A-Bomb 2pk, one will find me. Yes, and long overdue for Rick.

Almost any form of Rick Jones will be cool. 😀

Funny how it works with us as fans.  I CANNOT stand her power set.  It is, to me, one of the dumbest mutant powers ever.  "Hey I can't be beaten, ever."  "Uh-Oh I'm losing so I switch sides....GO GO MUTANT POWER!!!"  UGH.  Sorry I just can't, same with the guy who everyone forgets when they don't directly look at him....JEEZUS scrape that bottom of the barrel some more.

Sorry that isn't directed at you chooch, just my venting in general.  She is a pass.

Killer Shrike is a yes because of his history, and I kind of dig his costume, but not a big want.

MCU High Evolutionary is a pass.  I LOVE the comic look and have him already.  The MCU look is not bad, but just doesn't do it for me.

Rick Jones/A-Bomb -  Civilian Rick would be a maybe on sale just because of his history.  A-Bomb is the same.  I like the A-Bomb look but not wiling to pay full price for him.

I'm a pass for any MCU release. No interest in those.

I'd be in for a classic human Rick Jones, or a two-pack with a similarly-built and sized Bucky that you could pass off as either Jones or Barnes. But if it's A-Bomb, that's another Big Pass. Less than zero interest in that version of Jones.

Pass on MCU High Evolutionary, but only because I don't collect the movie figures.

Huge yes to a classic civilian Rick Jones! Long overdue. Don't need the other versions of him...just his classic appearance.

Ha!  No worries.  Definitely one of those characters that's hard to sustain long term.  Sunspot using it against her by placing a bet in one of the Al Ewing books was fun, but I agree it's very arbitrary.

If Rick Jones came with a harmonica and "screw you square cats" attitude sculpt I'd probably go for him.  A-Bomb would be a buy.

I'd take both MCU High Evolutionary (one of the many high points of GotG3) and Rick Jones and/or A-Bomb. Are either of them still around in current comic continuity?

Don't really collect MCU these days so High Evolutionary is a pass.

Civilian Rick Jones is a maybe.  I would probably pick up A-Bomb.  I like the look.

I don't have an MCU display, but Guardians 3 was fantastic and High Evolutionary was a great villain. He definitely needs to get made.

Civilian Rick Jones AND A-Bomb are absolute yeses from me! Rick was such a prominent part of the comics for so long - integral to the Hulk's origins, became a teen sidekick to the Avengers and a member-in-waiting (which they sorta just drop eventually), and Captain Mar-Vell's counterpart. Seems like the VHS line Peter Parker would be a good start. And A-Bomb is a little cheesy but it's a fun design that I definitely want a figure of!

 

Killer Shrike would also be an easy buy - fun design and I always love getting more d-list villains. Isca the Unbeaten I don't know, but I will eventually read the Arakko X-stuff and if they announced figures from it that will just get me there faster. Go for it!

Alpha Primitives would be a yes -  even would purchase a few multiples -  but only after the main Inhumans royal family was in my hands.   I'd need Crystal, Triton, Gorgon, Lockjaw and Maximus at a minimum before I'd want to be asked to buy the Primitives.

 

And, probably yes to both Blackouts.   I like the classic super villain schtick with the lightning bolt mask.  That would be  a fun figure.    But the gentleman zombie look is also worth having so I'd pick up each of those.

I don't know if I would army-build Alpha Primitives, but I would absolutely do so with Moloids…but no one mentioned Moloids, so I’ll sit back down with that sentiment…

I absolutely want the first Blackout (Mark)…
