  • Normally, Hasbro seems to focus more on the Spider-Man based figures but this year has been especially good for X-Men collectors. Will this unexpected set be as good as fans might hope or will it be a cheap and easy cash grab with the addition of the much desired Nimrod?

    Yeah... let's just keep calling him Fantomex 👀
    I hate that female body mold with a passion... It's awful. I think Super heroines should be thick, and I don't mean that in a sexual way, lol. They fight, they jump, they run, they do a lot of acrobatic stuff, they should have muscles, that sculpt is way too thin for a character with enhanced abilities.
    I feel like Nimrod's torso could be designed like Hulkbuster's where it's not a ball joint but a square and that's the reason why it keeps returning to it's neutral position.

      @@twiztidlestat You should probably avoid calling things dumb if you can't form a proper sentence. It's worth noting that you simply didn't understand the reference to the lazy naming conventions employed by comic writers for characters with derivative, uninspired super powers. You also missed that I renamed all of them as part of the discussion on the inclusion of three lesser-known characters in one bundle.

    They should have named the Psylocke figure Psylocke (Kwannon), because it looks like they were going for the Kwannon version of Psylocke, when she has her mind in the head of a ninja named Kwannon.

    I dont understand why they dont use the Moonstone mold for Psylocke...hate that skinny body.

    • @xer0vi
      @xer0vi Před 3 lety

      @Anna Marfa yes typically but not all. The body Betsy has ..was from a fairly I guess I'll say..voluptuous asian.... They do exist. Although yes..it really depends on who draws her because some artist do draw her thin. But I always think of 90s Jim Lee when I think of Psylocke. Which for that look the Moonstone body mold would work perfect. Check out some of the Psylockes customizers made..they used that mold as their base. You right though..and that probably is why they dont use it for her.

    • @xer0vi
      @xer0vi Před 3 lety

      Really yes in the chest area Psylocke has been flat..but she is known for having a booty. So Moonstone bottom would work for the mold too.

    The last time I got a Psylocke figure was from the SDCC 2012 X-Force pack which came with Archangel and Wolverine. That Psylocke had a mark on her chin where the paint came off and it revealed a dark circle. Here's to hoping that this pack that I just ordered here has no such blemishes.

      I honestly don’t understand why they changed her race. Marvel loves to preach about diversity and change every single white character into a minority. So how come one of their semi-original minority characters (she wasn’t originally Asian but she’s been that way for a long time) into a white woman. That’s just simple hypocrisy.
