I will get raccoon boy and tree man. Maybe helmet head coat guy!

Wait those aren't their names?

:gah:

If you look at the pic all the faces are turned away from the camera. Even Groot. They just do that not to spoil the big reveal. Same thing with Captain America teaser.

Plus if they had shown a head sculpt, we would all be critiquing it and dissecting it. We'd all decide that it wasn't a good likeness and we should start emailing them right now :lol They don't want that, the whole point is to hype up the reveal. They won't show anything major until they're ready.

I bet some of you are already thinking Rockets sculpt is a little off. You're thinking it. :rotfl

And also his height. Too tall wait... too short wait... Same for Tree man (Groot).

I'll get Rocky Raccoon for sure, assuming we get this alternate outfit and head sculpt

The only one I'm not interested in is Gamora. Don't know why, just don't think it is worth $200. I'm very much interested in the rest of the team though!! Hope we get team uniforms...eh what do I care? I'll be happy either way :)

Rooted hair is just awful. Makes these into expensive Barbies in my eyes.

I'm very conflicted, on the one hand I want Rocket, Groot and Starlord as I've been a fan of them for awhile. On the other hand I don't like supporting Disneys merchandising strategy

I'm very conflicted, on the one hand I want Rocket, Groot and Starlord as I've been a fan of them for awhile. On the other hand I'm unbelievably annoyed and pissed that they have the whole team in the works and are advertising them two months before the movie releases but aren't doing a single figure from DOFP. It's more A Disney issue than HT but leaves a sour taste in my mouth about the whole affair.

Considering they have yet to make a figure from XM: FC, doubt they will show DOFP anytime soon and even then the figures will never be revealed. If only Marvel had the rights, HT would be all over them.

They do, they have the merchandising rights, they are the ones holding them... and not using them

There's plenty of franchises I like that don't get figures made so I just focus on the ones that do.

X-Men fans should get over themselves, find something else they'd like to buy and concentrate on that because no amount of whining will make the figures any more likely to happen.

This difference is this isn't like Ghostbusters or something else not getting figures, X-Men is the only ongoing superhero movie franchise to not get the HT treatment. It's had a huge movie and people are wanting merchandise to go alongside all the other Marvel figures, It's like counting to Five and having all number present except #3. There's a glaring hole in the Marvel line-up.

Sometimes people don't always get what they want....that's life.

I'd buy young and old versions of Professor X & Magneto if they were made but it probably isn't happening so I'm not gonna stress over it, there's too many other awesome figures to look forward to.
