http://instagr.am/p/Cd4JS3cu4mm We still don't have a perfect Magneto, so I tried my hand at improving the Family three-pack version. Put the old Toy Biz head on it, removed the plastic cape from the collar piece, and got a GPSlot wired cloth cape. I like it a lot, the old head sculpt is still good IMO, and the red color on the helmet isn't too far from the newer figure. Plus, now he stands up better because the cape doesn't weigh him down. Kinda wanna do the same thing to the House of X Magneto now.

MAFEX MCU Rescue news.toyark.com/2022/05/23/avengers-endgame-mafex-rescue-by-medicom-468821I find MAFEX figures to be rather hit and miss generally, I was hugely disappointed by the comic Spiderman and promptly cancelled my preorders for Wolverine and Cyclops (and after watching the video reviews I stand by that decision - really poor figures). But that said, some of the movie figures look pretty good, great likeness on the unmasked heads for Rescue. I'm with you on Mafex, I like a lot of their figures from what I see, but I'm not exactly blown away by them. I skipped Tiger Stripe Wolverine because of the blue stripes and those terrible claws, but I did get brown costume Wolverine because they corrected all the issues from the earlier one. I have the Knightfall Batman preordered, but really only got that because I can't imagine anyone else making that figure.

So I'm on the record of not being an xmen guy. But that figure looks stupid. I don't know if it's accurate or not. It's just stupid. I buy marvel legends for figures that look like spiderman, beast, deadpool, black panther, green goblin, carnage, the singularity, etc. This looks like a dude in a track suit or some crap. Pass. Top tier easy pass. anyways, i thought the head was not good, however the sculptor said something along the lines of that it wasnt based soley on the cartoon, which i think is just an excuse for a poor headsculpt.

Thor arrived yesterday from Amazon. Love that Avengers shot. I've been all-in on the Retro 3.75", but I'm torn on whether to keep them MOC or open them. They'd make such an impressive collection on card, but I always prefer to open.

Female heavy delivery today with a bad man in tow.... Looking nice! I preordered the Bonebreaker wave on Pulse, no idea when theyโll ship but Iโm not in a huge rush. Mostly just want to round out my Reavers team.

Got the animated Wolverine in from Pulse today. Disappointed there's not a better way to display the figure other than oop or just packed inside. Silly, but I was hoping that it came in a tray of some sort; not just wrapped in paper. I guess that's the wave of the future. I know they didn't say anything like it, but it's a missed opportunity. Won't be picking up any of the others unless they get discounted in some way.

received Rhino in the mail! The box is huge!
Better than I expected, and I like the headsculpts way better than the BAF

so get this, ups delivered my packages to the wrong house about 2 streets over. I am lucky enough that an old man walked my packages to my house. I had about 200$ worth of office supplies and the hasbro pulse jubilee in those boxes! Love living in a tiny town.

Siryn looks great, although I wish they'd packed in a screaming head for her since that's her entire power. A Feral is much needed, as is a Wolfsbane. I'm sure we'll get those soon!

Yeah I thought that was weird as hell....hopefully her father isn't far behind in his Jim Lee blue Yellow color's preferably.....but Id take Banshee in his Traditional Outfit or Gen X costume either. He's just WAY overdue.
