Ditto. Would have picked up the Mandarin if they had done the version JRjr
gave me when I was writing IRON MAN, but they seem to have gone for the
Paul Ryan version, which I didn't like as much.

Very nice collection, Thomas. I've thus far collected a whopping

I started with exactly two of these figurines, Captain America and Captain
Britain, a good while after JB and others were posting about their finds,
and I've really stuck with characters I like--even if some of their looks I
don't like so much (Havok and Storm, for example). I've managed to hold
off on buying the Beast because I just can't take the cat-man look. (This
is where JB makes me jealous by posting another link to those custom
figurines he's having made.) I've also avoided Gambit, Blade, Mystique,
Cable, Punisher, Ghost Rider, Emma Frost, Apocalypse, Psylocke, and
Carnage, among others, because I don't like the chosen look or the
character has no real appeal to me.

Moon Knight looks just a little beefier than my previous regular sized figures:

Of those I have picked up only Mystique, Ghost Rider, Emma and Psylocke.
In the case of the ladies, only because I liked the sculpt.

I have Mystique (now stripped of paint to become Mary Jane), Ghost Rider and Psylocke. Love the sculpts of the last two. I'll do a White Queen custom if they start coming out with the rest of the Inner Circle.

JB,
I would get Emma Frost if she were your Emma Frost/White Queen, not
whatever passes for the character now. (There's no way Cyclops would have
ever gotten together with her! No way at all!)
I would get Ghost Rider if he were in his original motorcycle daredevil get-
up.

Nice Hellcat! I've got an affinity for the character, so she'll definitely be added to the collection.

As far as Emma Frost, I solved that one easily. The figurine doesn't look off model from the character as she was originally intended. I group my figurines into FF, Spider-Man: Friends and Villains, X-Men, Avengers, Villains, and Loners. I don't put the White Queen with the X-Men. She's with the Villains. Totally works.
