There's a chance these may go cheaper at Christmas, but I didn't want to chance it (or wait). I probably should have, though.

Psylocke is great! Nice sculpt with cool effects. I love her evil face sculpt and she's permanent evil from the multiverse. Couldn't care less about the Wolverine, though. 

Hulk/Patch is fine. They look really good together, and I like the head sculpts a lot, but they are totally not essential to my collection. But I haven't had any new figures in a while and the buying bug bit me hard on this sale.

Lilandra doesn't show up until tomorrow.

She'll make a few top ten Legends of 2024 lists.  I haven't given it much thought, but I think she's on mine right now.  After I consider it more maybe she'll end up down in the 11 to 20 range, not sure yet.

@enigmaticclarity I did a TOP 10 in another column, but it seems to have disappeared.

 

EDIT: - Just looked at all my past posts and it's still "awaiting moderation" in the "Half-way through 2024 Top ten Figures" thread even though I posted way back on the 5th. 😛

The Lilandra 2-pack arrived today. Yeah, she's pretty much perfect. Great sculpting all around. 

Brood Wolverine.... Ok, wicked head sculpt, but what a waste of a slot. That head could have been packed in just like the original head for Lilandra was. So many other non-released Wolverine's could have been made, or an updated X-23/Wolverine.

Lilandra really is an excellent figure! Glad they did her right with the sculpted costume details. 

I certainly wouldn't have picked Broodverine out of all the things they could make, but I do like the idea of displaying him with the Brood Queen + the Marvel Select Brood drones. With all the more out there Wolverine variants we're getting (Brood, Hellverine) I can't believe they haven't done a Venomized Wolverine yet.

Dan's favorite. Perfect for both Wolverine's anniversary and Venom's anniversary.

Yeah, I've got a Queen, 3 Select Brood, and 2 repainted Toybiz drones. Broodverine will hang out with them for sure, but just a head pack would still have been great. Even if there's some that may not have an extra brown suit Wolvie, they will when the inevitable pinless reissue comes.

I need to get some of the old Toy Biz drones to diversify! Would love to see pics if you have any handy.

@h-bird I'll take a pic when I get home. Well, provided my old ass doesn't forget... 😆

Yeah.  They could’ve given us:

Mean/The Fiend with no name.

No lie, I'd go nuts for him and a pack-in Bamf!

@h-bird - The Toybiz ones were painted around 17 years ago, so don't judge me too harshly on that. 😆
