I'm in Set Indifference. The pure-theme thing is a drag. I know a lot of people have complained that theme sets were not themey enough-- I was not one of them.
I just realized that Monet isn't in this set. Boo. Maybe one of the lady Hellions could be repainted for her as an LE.
NONONONONONO!!!! no stinking repaints of some same sculpt for two different people especially for someone as cool as M that deserves a really bad ### sculpt!!! i want an M fig too but i don't want it to be some lame sculpt like that that was just repainted B^( shame on you for even suggesting it!!!!!

You knwo they did that apparently for most of the Hellions save Emma Frost

And Iceman wore booties. Iceman with no booties in an X-themed set = epic fail. Thi1s s3t teh suxxor!!!?!!!?!
Wait...have we moved on to "set hate" yet or are we still in "set love"? If it's the latter then, th1s s3t teh roxxor!!!?!!!?! (but still no booties )
jolt
first off rep to you for your name and avatar image!!! but to be L33T you need the original http://farm1.static.flickr.com/37/11...ed12624ce8.jpg B^) but back on subject.... we are still in "set love" just wait till people actually see what the figs look like in hand and we find out what other wrenches neca has thrown into it... we dont know what are LEs yet or if some that have been seen/on the box art are chase figs (green Phoenix and x-force painted archangel) so we shall have to wait and see B^(

yea and that is super lame!!! neca is perty dang cheap if you ask me and its really starting to tick me off just how cheap they are being. i was actually thinking of ordering a brick for the first time since Mutations and Monsters.... but if Neca wants to be cheap then i think i will too and just order singles once i see what the figs actually look like, since Neca only wants to have the digital pics on the poster and not the completed actually production figs on it B^P
this is why Neca needs to take 3 months off so they can get ahead of production. have the next set come out in 6 months...that way you have time to have everything ready to go live when its out... you have time to take pics of the finished figs... you have all the boxes of figs already shipped to diamond so you don't have any shipping delays. you have plenty of time to have all the figs ready for your image gallery all you have to do is upload them the day of release.... would be care if we only got two sets this year if it meant that we would possibly have a better product and a better resource on their website?

That is good advice. Taking a few months off to you know prepare a well thought out set.
Not bad.
Not even Super Boosters?

Ah, Deadshot actually mentions Slade's healing factor in that very fight, assuming you're talking about the one in Villain's United. It's not a "very high" healing factor, but he has one.
Besides which, how consistently a character is portrayed doesn't necessarily matter: Just their high point and low point. Deathstroke's high point is tossing around the Teen Titans or JLA. His low point is getting beaten up by the likes of Black Canary. Wolverine's high point...doesn't approach taking on the Teen Titans or JLA, or more universe appropriate, the Avengers.
Its the snarky way people put it sometimes that gets me going defensive.
I'm gonna say that the two have to fight very differently in battle. Deathstroke has a good showing against heroes, but nothing truly devastating happens. Wolverine has to hold himself back usually from killing the enemy so hes actually better than he portrays himself in comics.
I knew that someone would eventually throw the takes on JLA and teen titans approach and to that I say: He should considering he studied both teams before hand and doesn't just get dropped in the middle of a fight with no idea of what a character can do like Wolverine does. I can't speak for the Titans as I'm sure he isn't taking them on entirely and there are mind games and such at play, but don't make it seem that he took on the entire JLA with ease or something. I didn't see him beat Superman, Wonderwoman, Batman, GL and all of those JLA.......I DID see him take on the street level versions at the time and he knew exactly what to aim for at that. Also he couldn't beat Kyle, but was merely messing his ring up. Kyle was either acting like a rookie or was at the time. He did things that were cool like throat chop Zatanna and slice off Hawkman's harness (Is that really all it takes to take him out BTW?) so he knocks himself out or how he chopped off Green Arrow's tips so he couldn't shoot. He still got beat by Green arrow (which in turn got Green Arrow a savage beating) and the team had little trouble after getting their bearings. Quite a different scenario than: Deathstroke beat the JLA....as I, like others may be thinking he was fighting Supes and Wonderwoman to a standstill or something.
Its like saying Cyclops can beat the entirety of the X-men if he went rogue. I'd say: Probably since he knows the characters and knows what to attack.
...but I wouldn't say that Cyclops has the Skill or the Survivability to pull it off...
You haven't been reading X-men lately have you? I have no doubt that if he'd go rogue, the X-men would be in big trouble.
Hes been training pretty hard all his life. So the skill is there. It wouldn't be one on one, it would be a systematic takedown. (Kinda like how deathstroke took on the JLA) It could happen.

Ah...right...I thought for a minute there you were going to tell me that Cyclops has had Military training, become an expert with firearms and gain some healing ability....

Lol. Heck no. He'd get murdered going out there willynilly. He is immune to mental control now, though. Its the only actual upgrade powerwise the character has gotten. Guess dating enough mental gals pays off afterall!!
That made me laught though. That is exactly what I thought when someone told me Deathstroke took on the JLA. I was like DAAAAANNNGGGG. I gotta see how he took on those guys!! Even though he didn't take on the team I envisioned, he really had me on edge with the team he did take on. That was some sharp writing and that Zatanna take out makes me laugh to this day. I think I gagged from laughter when I read that....It was much more serious in her case, though.
I hate to bring this up guys, but how do we know that this is the most recent poster? could it be that this is a prelimenary poster sent out to keep us a buzz while NECA finishes things up? I mean, who ever heard of an entire set list being leaked over a month before the set comes out. not to mention we're assuming that it's even going to be out on time. I just see a lot of holes in this theory, so i'm not holding my breath for march 16th or for this being the final set list. just trying to be realistic here.
Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed.

Err, there are sculpts and numbers and everything. That's pretty darn solid as evidence goes. The duos and the possibility of a few stray figures that would have been in the super-boosters exists, but that poster represents almost all the figures in the set, while the booster art and the teased Wolverine/Colossus duo verify a few more figures.
I'm in Providence! I've been out of the hobby, but I'm looking for Saturday gaming. Send me a PM if you know the down-low!
I truly hope we will have a new Juggernaut that looks like the one from IC Set. All we have right now that is competitive is Cain Marko, and that is not that great, and I like the IC Juggernaut Costume scheme better.
