All Mondo X-Men Animated Figure Thread

Damn. I REALLY wish you had posted that about a week ago. I just bought him off of eBay and it wasn’t cheap

Sorry bud.

 

[MarvelZombie]

My lineup would be:

Jean Grey
Beast
Colossus
Storm
Nightcrawler

Bonus: Prof X, Phoenix

On a side note, I had an issue with my ‘97 Cyclops so mondo sent me a new body and hands. Very cool of them.

 

[rjszar]

Jean Grey
Storm
Colossus
Beast
Apocalypse

Let's hope they have many more in the pipeline. Need Prof. X, Mr. Sinister, Psylocke, Nightcrawler. Goblin Queen. Bishop, Cable, Blob and all the rest.

I wonder if they do Prof X (and I am guessing they will) how much he will cost given the hover chair! (unless they just go with him in the Savage Land green outfit)

 

[Hellion]

Hmmmmm…. Well if I can only choose 5 it’d have to be:
-Jean (classic costume)
-Storm (costume from 2nd half on newest season)
-Beast
-Nightcrawler
-Colossus (I’m not remembering if there was ever a scene of him in a costume or if it was always just working clothes?)

Just for fun, let's say Mondo can only make 5 more animated X-Men figures. Who would you pick? For me, it would be:
1. Jean
2. Beast
3. Storm
4. Professor X
5. Juggernaut

1. Psylocke
2. Mystique
3. Emma Frost
4. Apocalypse
5. Storm ‘97 (black outfit)

 

[Lacroix]

I’m loving everything Mondo is doing with this line! Working on a War Room Table to display them around.


Top 5 remaining:
1. Jean Grey
2. Storm (90s white uniform)
3. Beast
4. Professor X
5. Archangel

Storm, Beast & Jean are essential to me for this line

Prof. X & Nightcrawler are nice to have for me personally but not fully needed

Mondo have just shipped my Omega Red without the shading. Coming straight from China, I thought they shipped from the US?

If it’s in stock on the site then they do. All pre-orders now ship direct from China.

I emailed Mondo about my Cyclops having a dent in the trunks a month after receiving it. They shipped out a new body straight away, no questions asked, I didn't even have to give them my order number.

Can't ask for better service than that.

Ah ok makes sense, gets to us quicker that way then as I am in the UK. Thanks for the info

Got my Uncanny version Rogue on Friday and just had a chance to open it up briefly- the metallic green doesn't stand out as much as I thought it would and looks like something out of the comics (not a fan of the animated cel shading, though it has vastly improved over the years). Granted, it does also look a lot like a giant Marvel Legends figure, but the accessories with this are pretty great (love the comic-colored Sentinel base and optic blast head, and the energy absorbing hand with blue effects is something I've wanted since I was a kid). I was also pleasantly surprised that the box art was the same as the animated series version (just with an "Uncanny" moniker). I did find a couple minor paint issues that I'll be emailing Mondo about (nothing as bad as the eyes from the original release), but one gripe is that the neck skin tone doesn't match the head (or hand) skin tone. I was initially upset I missed out on the limited edition from the animated series, but I like this one much more, so that worked out.

I don't know that we'll ever get a better 1/6 scale Rogue figure (the SooSoo version used mixed media but also made some sculpt/costume design choices I didn't like), so I'm leaning towards keeping it, though I also don't know how deep I want to go with this line (and would need to free up a display shelf for this). I have the main 90s lineup in Marvel Legends, and I do not have the space/desire to turn that into a full 1/6 scale lineup. That said, Gambit and Jubilee are very tempting right now... (un/fortunately, I also missed out on the exclusive Cyclops)

if you're still on the fence, the Mondo animated Gambit is a must, it's the best animated Gambit figure ever made!
