    agreed, but considering it's a different company it's hard to know what they are going to do. I hate the movie line, they have a relative short life and then you are stuck with a figure for a movie that nobody knows in a few years, and usually the movie figures (spidey excepted) are worse looking than the actual comic characters anyway.

    IMO, the recent switch to Hasbro is kinda troubling, IMO. The packaging is great, but they started off with some pretty weak figures. Of the recent line, I was really excited about the Ultimate Iron Man and Emma Frost figure...and Emma looks really fugly.

    I want to get a Beast figure and an Emma figure just to add to my Astonishing X-Men character set. There hasn't been a single Cyclops figure that I liked...the recent one with the huge buccaneer flaps on his boots is pretty fugly, as well.

    the emma figured totally bit the big one(haven't decided if Emmas body will be good enough to turn into a sin figure from brubakers current captain america run, it may be too 'busty' but maybe not), the ultimate iron man looks good but it looks 'wrong' (scale or size or something) The beast was so-so. Hercules almost looks decent.

    I'm holding out hope that the next line may be interesting, unfortunately I have to buy this entire line because annihilus is so worth it.

    Yeah, I was hoping the Ultimate Iron Man figure would be a lot bigger. However, that's a minor complaint as the actual figure is solid.

    I'm still holding out hope that Hasbro will produce another Colossus figure, as the Colossus (and Blackheart) from the Toy Biz Legends are two of my favourite figures.

    Well most of them had wrist swivels so that's not a big problem, Annihilus could have really used them though.

    As for the articulation joints, if Hasbro said that they were cutting down the articulation because of oil costs I would call BS on that one. While I can understand the oil costs with the build a figure, Hasbro just got lazy on this wave because it really doesn't take all that much effort to just cut a hole between hands or knuckles to put in a few more joints.

    Hercules is the only one that I didn't mind about since his fists are good for poses and the mace fits snuggly in between them. Hulk thankfully has them but Beast, Iron Man, Banshee and Emma are either going to chop the living crap out of a foe, slap someone or are going to make some Matrix style poses.

    Actually every point of articulation requires a seperate molding piece. So the more articulation a figure takes, the more expensive it is. Add to that the cost of oil, and you're pushing the production costs even more.

    Wow. Talk about a pointless anniversary.



    A 25th Anniversary figure celebrating nothing in particular, other than the character's original mini. :p

    They just reused the brown and tan costume sculpt and painted it silver.

    Pretty pointless release there.

    Pretty sure they stole the concept from Star Wars.

    It's a completely stupid release.
