THere is ONE Indy collector's set...MAYBE an Indy base set in 2007 (maybe) and Marvel has 2 more plus starter this year!
Marvel will get TWO sets next year as well to DC's one and Indy's MAYBE one
On the other hand, I don't give a rat's patootie about a failed Marvel comic line so I can save my money
Silly me. I forgot to add the [/sarcasm] tags
Sufficed to say, I’m disappointed that anything from Marvel or DC won. This is really our only opportunity to get Indy stuff. Alas, I suppose the voters have voted, and you can’t argue with the masses.
Is Punisher gonna be a double-baser? That'd be groovy.
I'll hafta see what I can afford.. between this and Horrorclix, this may lose out. 'Specially since I never got Spider-Man, so I've not yet taster the sweet-and-sour 90's flavour of a 2099 clicky figure.
Another:
HULK
DOOM
PUNISHER
GHOST RIDER
AND THEN.......nobody
since the above names are must makes if you even want to sell 1 set, then you can't include any x-men. Why would we want 1 or 2 of the 5-10 x-men 2099? And as for villains, villains invented solely for re-hashed heroes to fight aren't exactly interesting.

Sheesh. Talk about another fiasco. We'll see how well it sells with the collectors when it becomes available. I know right off the bat I won't waste money on "Invincible" and depending on the character selection AND the sculpts, I might pass on this one.
Now, if they do put the second place one out, much like "Green Lantern Corps" (which, if you noticed, has had a lot more buzz about it compared to "Invincible" hmm.) and BPRD took second, I'd be happy.
Heck, I'd be happy with any of the others as another set.
I'm very happy about the selection. I'd like to see Mutant 2099 in this set, so in the future i can make a league of losers theme team. I can't wait to see which charactures they pick for the set.
The pre-vote skewed the vote. No surprise there. I won't be buying this collectors' set - though I do like the Spidey 2099 clix from FF.

Well, I'm excited to see the 2099 set being made. I really like the whole "alternate reality / future story" kind of thing.
New Doom? Yes please. He should definitely be awesome.
What I'm more excited about though is a Punisher 2099. I've seen some customs on ebay and thought that he would make a great fig for a while now. Also, with the current Punisher being retired soon, a new one would be perfect timing. And, having read the entire series, I think the character has a lot of flexibility if they do their research on him. In particular, I really like his "variable density" nightstick. That could be represented in a few ways. Or maybe he could be a double base fig, like somebody else had mentioned. Maybe the Ghost Rider would be a double base as well?
Anyways, people are asking how the figures would be different from the "standard" figs that we have now. But, having read more than my share of 2099 books, I really think that the characters can be quite interesting and unique, IF the proper effort is put into designing them.
Hey give some love for 2099, Doom better be, Hulk its been a while we need a new hulk (since before long after retirments we wont be able to use any of them lol), Punisher, Ghost rider, and the one peice i really want to have VENOM 2099, ya got the spidey so ya need the venom, cant wait for Sinister for a New Venom lol
