I don't know if this has been covered elsewhere, but does anyone yet have good information on how the rarity issue is going to work in this set?
1. Are there going to still be 12 super-rares?
With the regular figs numbering up to 54, a likely scenario is that the super-booster figs simply count as the final 6 super-rares, meaning that only 6 of the regular figs count.
Again, the poster does not show the Duos that were moved into the regular boosters.
And I doubt there's any rarity difference in regard to the Super Booster giants.

I am not saying any set could not be 100% the problem lies in almost no one is popular enough to carry a set plus name recognition.
Like I said Stryker and Leech was in the X Movies
Trevor Fitzroy, the Reavers, Siryn, Harry and Caliban have been in at leats 1 of the X Cartoons
Gl maybe after he has his cartoon the others really no except Batman
And I would not be surprised if we got one remakes of the regular Arkham gang plus new ones like Cluemaster, Hugo Strange, Killer Moth and Clock King

Superman set could be close to 90% if you include the Forth World & LoSH
Green Lantern they could do a 90% because of all the different Lanterns now but it not as popular.
DC Elseworld set or just all KC it would be easy for 90% or more
War War II I would love to see a set of close to 90% Golden age JSA that weren't in DC75, the rest of All-Star Squadron, Freedom Fighters plus Haunted Tank, Unknown Soldier & others
Aquaman, Flash, Hawkman, Teen Titans & Wonder Woman aren't big enough or popular enough
as for Captain America you could get 90% if you include the All-Winner Squad, Avengers, Invaders, S.H.I.E.L.D. plus their villains I would consider that to be theme
Marvel Horror/Supernatural I would love to see 90% or more. those are my favorite type of comics
Fantastic Four would probably be around 75%
I wouldn't like to see more than 50% for a Hulk set

So no Gambit? He was on the packaging..... right? Also, Cable's entire extended family... and no Cable? Strange.
Rumor is Rogue/Gambit Duo Piece. No Cable is very disappointing & has been expressed dramatically on both sides of the argument on this thread.

I'm fairly miffed at the character selection. I was planning on buying either a brick or a case but after seeing this, it's just going to be singles. This set was too theme-restricted. You could easily have cut out Nextwave for something good.
Wait, what? You think the set is too theme restrictive but you want to take out the team team that isn't X-Men related??
Being that this is the X-Men set and dous are going to be well known X-men duos. We already know Colossus and Wolverine are one.
I'd bet we get the classic costume Cyclops and Marvel Girl Jean Grey in poses like they were drawn when they were fighting the imperial Guard on the moon during the trial of Jean Grey.

Gambit is one of the Duos or one of the Horseman that was susposed to be in the Super Booster but are now in the regular set & Cable might be an LE for Stryfe
if there is 3 duos & 3 more Horseman the poster only went up to 54 they could be 55-60 & hopefully be SR
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a Cable/Deadpool duo. If so, I hope to pull one just for the tradability factor, because that piece might as well be dipped in gold.
I wouldn't like to see more than 50% for a Hulk set
Even being a Hulk fan I'd find that excessive. I'd say something along the lines of the Hulk/Hulk related amount of figures in M&M. Some Hulks, some villains, some supporting players (Rick Jones, Jarella, and a Doc Samson remake would be cool). I'd say 10 figures would do it.
I still can't BELIEVE we're getting a War Hulk!

It would be interesting to See Deadpool/Cable wbaby Hope dou. Wolverine/Jubilee would be interesting as another Dou. Rogue/Gambit or even Gambit/Storm. If they wanted to throw in figures we don't have but to add extras they could do Havok/Polaris. Longshot/Dazzler. Maybe even Banshee/Thunderbird?
LEs may be what some suggested either, repaints of Hellions to make new unmade ones (Catseye in human form could easily be made doing this), OR, the new mutants who appear in Hellion costume could be repainted in their actual New Mutants outfits( which saves me the time of repainting extra ones).
what about Albert and Elsie-Dee??? i would love one o them along with wolverine and Jubilee!!!!

Hulk set you can finished off the Planet Hulk like Caira, Hiroim, Red King & others. U.S. Army Soldier with Major Glenn Talbot has the LE or in the set a couple of different She-Hulk, Abomination, Gargoyle, Skaar, Mr. Fixit & a couple of other Hulks plus some Defenders & Pantheon & the characters that you mention you could do 25-30

Oh definitely. I just know that the chances of them doing the Pantheon (as much as I'd LOVE that) are between slim and none.
Prove me wrong, WK!
