Trouble for me is I don't like that Magik costume. I'm also hoping for something with double-jointed elbows. Either her New Mutants look or one of the later costumes that homaged her New Mutants look.

I agree about Magik's costume.  Because they used a smaller body, I think she comes across as kid playing dress-up dominatrix when you mix her in with the Moonstar/Karma/Woflsbane bodies.

Whatever outfit they choose, please let it be on a body that scales with the other New Mutants.

I mean the real question to ask is what are they thinking not showing a FA Wasp for release

summer 2024 at today's event if they want Giant Man to fund.

And add to that why wasn't Wasp included in any 60th anniversary product or tie-in - the only founder to not get a figure, and the only female?

I’ll ask about Wasp and try and get in as many of these as possible. 

I feel y’all on Magik, so I’ll ask if they will do another. I just bought three Dani’s and Dwight hinted they might be doing a male version for the New Mutants. 

swarm would be awesome. 

ill ask about the MCU and comic stuff too. 

they were swamped today so I didn’t bother them but I’ll catch them tomorrow for sure.

If it's not too late, I had four questions for you to pick from:

- Are there any plans for a new solo Hulk Marvel Legends wave and/or Retro The Incredible Hulk wave that could mix larger Hulk sized characters with normal human civilian characters, heroes and villains?  Characters like General Ross, Ringmaster, Tyrannus, Doc Samson and orange-and-black suit Leader would be fun.

- Are there any plans to use the bendable wire tentacles for a new comic book Doctor Octopus figure in either the green-and-orange classic suit or white Armani suit look?

- Can we expect more figures of civilian characters that aren't on the business suit with tie body mold?

- With 'Spider-Man 2' having its 20th anniversary in 2024, "Spider-Man: The Animated Series" turning 30 in 2024 and "Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars" turning 40 in 2024, can we expect more anniversary waves from the comics and the movies in 2024 and beyond?

And yes, please ask about classic Wasp.  Also, if we do get more Spider-Man animated figures, I'd love to see new figures for characters like Felicia Hardy, Morbius, Chameleon, Mysterio, the Shocker, human form Alistair Smythe, Detective Terri Lee and Nick Fury.

I think it was said that there will be no new reveals at NYCC, but there will be later in October.

@basil-elks I believe Dan stated on twitter before that there wouldn't be any new reveals at NYCC, but to expect something the end of October.  Entertainment Earth's "drop zone" calendar also has Hasbro releases (pre-orders?) for 10/25 - 10/31 & another 11/08.  Up for debate how many are SW, ML or GI Joe (or other)

Yeah I’ll be honest I don’t get why Wasp wasn’t announced. I love Dan and Dwight, and I know most of this is out of their hands so I dislike when people hate on them in here, but that move is confusing. 

same time, if I really want Giant Man I’m going to get him. I know Wasp will come sooner than later.

🙁 Well, that's disappointing. NYTF and NYCC SHOULD'VE had reveals, and should've been big for them, especially Toy Fair.

Should have used this opportunity to add to Giant Man excitement with complimentary pieces. Seems insane they didn't. The Giant Man looks so good.

I've also been curious about how they decide which costume to go with for any particular character. 

Like, do they have market research showing most collectors prefer modern? Do they themselves have personal preferences? Do they just Google it and see what pops up first? Is it influenced by what parts they have for re-use?

They could still reveal something at their 1027 event. They've already teased some Ghostbuster reveal happening, possibly a new Haslab. Last year they revealed the retro 3.75" Ghost Rider and the animated Spider-Man/Carnage 2 pack. Of course, it will be too late to boost Giant Man. So I don't know why they didn't show anything at NYCC. They could have thrown a Wasp into the display with Giant Man. Sitting on his shoulder would have been perfect and surely have made an impact in the number of backers.

Did we really not have a single MCU fan at the event? No one asked a single MCU question or did I over look it?
