I think the sculpts were all from Chaos War. ToxicTony has access to some good pics of these, I'll see if I can transfer them over during the weekend.
And Lurker, I don't think that's really an issue, since you can't order extra Super Boosters. I'm sure most retailers will be ordering based on the number of customers who will be purchasing full bricks.
And I don't think there will be many players buying six bricks to get all the colossals. If there are, they should be introduced to this wonderful secondary market thing I hear so much about.

That's an interesting marketing device. Let the retailers and consumers pre-order the set with the assumption that each buyer will need to purchase six super boosters to complete a set and once the orders are in quietly state that in reality buyers will only need to purchase five boosters. Its a clever way of increasing sales by 20%.
Especially because it is unlikely going to upset very many players. The majority of players are going to be thrilled about pulling an extra figure. Definitely sneaky on WK's part.

I never said it was bad, I stated it was interesting.
And the wonderful world of the secondary market needs to buy those boosters too.

I personally know three collectors who ordered a third case to guarantee them the six super boosters they assumed they would need to acquire six collossals.
6th Colossal is going to be the Tri-Sentinel from the end of the Cosmic Spidey arc. Calling it now.
This is my thinking too. It would be especially nice if it has some Trait or SP that plays off of Cosmic Spidey.
However, my hope, hope, hope, hope, hopes are still for a colossal Groot / Rocket Raccoon Duo Fig. Both of the current figs leave Modern Age on July 1, so this would be great timing.
May all your hits be crits!

The final colossal is... The Avengers. 30+ figures (including Giant Man, to make it heavier) on a 3x6 base, with point values in the same up-to-1800-points style as the larger colossals.
(Note: This is in no way base don fact. But if it turns out I'm right, I get the credit for being a genius.)
Sorry but I called this months ago, but I'll let you share in my a glory.
Eh, I just have no attraction/attachment to the Giganto character, and the Master Mold dial/card makes my damn head hurt in addition to being a character I don't really dig.

We got to look at a few sculpts in person, such as a new Taskmaster, in the original costume, Crystal of the Inhumans and a few really nicely detailed Joker thugs from the movie sets.
YESSSSSSS!!!!
About. Damn. Time.
The only better new than this would be info that Melter is going to be in one of these sets!
This GAMA news has me giddy as a schoolgirl! I'm going to start saving NOW for all the goodness!
CarlosMucha: that is like be running in a Olimpic race competition just one step to get the gold and then a Giant children place a mirror in your side and you discover what you are really a hamster over a whell and the gold is just a slice of chess. Avatar Summoning: Original GotG, Melter, Whiplash
I'll have to dig through that photo album later and see if anything was missed, too. Muncho had some stuff that wasn't in the slideshow.

What?! Taskmaster, awesome! So glad that we might get a version with some good special powers now that Wizkids seems to have picked up on how to do power stealers/mimics. Crystal is a nice figure for an update, and I'm all for Joker thugs.
That leaves Maximus as the only Inhuman who could use a remake. Very nice.
