Sfcommando14 Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 I love the Avengers Tower. But that's probably just personal preference. As far as it goes, The exclusive figures are the various Ultrons that are all virtually indistinguishable, an Iron Man that is indistinguishable, a Hawkeye that is virtually indistinguishable, a Scarlet Witch that might be better than the Civil War one, Vision, Quicksilver Iron Legion and Baron Strucker. If it weren't for the fact that the airport battle made the quinjet city chase almost completely redundant, I would have put my money on that one. The Vision is the only part of that set that people will go crazy for. Hulkbuster is the best contender for increase. Yet the hulk buster is everywhere and hasn't been on sale at any brick and mortars anywhere near me. I feel similarly, but don't believe enough to pay more than $20 (hoping for $15). Quote

thoroakenfelder Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 general solicitations for Marvel Comics in October tend to indicate the end of the X-Men. It's been slowly coming for a while now. I am really surprised that there's a Mighty Micros coming out. http://nerdist.com/did-marvel-comics-just-silently-kill-the-x-men/ Quote

zskid00 Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 Disney owns Marvel studios, comics, licensing and all except the movie rights to X-men, Fantastic Four, and Spider-man. I can see them making a concerted effort to push the X-men out of comics as much as possible and not support something they don't have the rights to capitalize on at the box office. Fans have speculated that it's a reason why you don't see nearly as many X-men products on the market today since Disney controls the merchandising and licensing side. Quote

Doing some research, I found out that there's a series of Marvel Legends featuring the X-Men releasing next month. I'm beginning to suspect some kind of a stunt. Quote
zskid00 Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 Hasbro, who makes Marvel Legends, and other licensees have still been releasing X-men products but it has seemed to slow down substantially since Disney took over Marvel. There has been a concerted effort to push Avengers, Captain America, and Iron Man to the forefront and understandably so. Disney wants to capitalize their marketing opportunities through their licensed products in conjunction with their studio releases. Quote

They killed the usual Wolverine the other year and he's still dead, replaced by a less popular female clone and an alternate reality old man version. Anyone enjoying the real Wolverine on screen will be hard pressed to find a comic book that resembles him, though it sounds like the next Wolverine movie will have some connection to the old man version.

TheGallows Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Looking forward to Dr strange, looks like it could be really good, Cumberbatch is a great choice, also Mads Mikkelsen as the bad guy! Really want to the JL film to be good, pretty sure I'm gonna be disappointed though. Also I don't like Affleck as batman. 1 Quote
