It was me, and I did indeed flip my shit over M. I literally nearly cried. I've wanted a figure of her for nearly 30 years. And every year we get further and further away from her most significant appearances, reducing the likelihood of her being made. I was terrified she'd be put up for preorder tonight while I'm at work, and sell out before I got off. |

M body, with 90s Jubilee head and coat, for Jubilee. And that exact Banshee, only swap out the blue for green. There you go. Combined with M, and Chamber, that's half the original team. Just Sync, Skin, Penance, White Queen, and Mondo. |

I will have to get Doctor Doom so the FF have someone to fight.

I would have stuck an order in with my Pulse free shipping for you but they're 1 per person :-(

Well that is interesting. I didn't think the range was a big seller.

Yes, a little bit of surprise. I wonder if the stock levels have been reduced and preorder levels adjusted accordingly.
Weren't these up to £14 at one stage last year too?

They were. That is what Asdaland asks for them!

Sadness.
I must make a list now of the ones I need.

The cynical part of me says these are going away as they are too much like actual toys than 'adult colletables'. Realistically, though, it's probably sales.
I went from buying them all to dropping the line when it went rapidly from £10-14. In these Tough Economic Times I have had to scale back discretionary spending and at £14 they were a poor value proposition so got the chop from my budget.
May still grab a few more if I see them cheap.

They have sat a bit whenever I've seen them.
I'm pleased they've managed to squeeze Power Man, to go with Iron Fist, and Doctor Strange - to fight the FF out in what looks like being the last wave.
I'd have liked to have seen Scarlet Witch, to go with The Vision, and Hawkeye added to The Avengers. Doctors Strange and Octopus. The "Silver Centurion" Iron Man. Kang!
Plus of course numerous X-Men - notably Colossus & Nightcrawler - plus a non metallic release of the Green Phoenix.
Hopefully it will just be a rest and be back at some point. But I'm not hopeful.

They have sat a bit whenever I've seen them. They flew off the shelves in my local Asdaland until the sudden jump from £10-£14 and then they sat there for months. Never discounted and then they vanished in the last reset. -Ralph |
