Quicksilver
Black Widow
Kang
Havok
Falcon

******

I'm hoping they use the black suit/long red hair Widow.

Wonder what colour they'll use on Quicksilver. Green? Grey? Blue?

Hoping they treat Havok kindly as he's one of my favourites.

Well, after a short Google search, the only pictures I found was a toy.

This thread was the high up on the list when I googled the Abomination figurine.

Well David, if the cover for Quicksilver is anything to go by then he will be Blue.

 

Should look very good indeed.

I wondered this myself a while back on the Figurine forums. When I picture Havok I see the guy Neal Adams drew with those amazing concentric circles but a lot of modern fans think of the awful costumes the guy has had through the late 90s and 2000s. I fear it will be one of the those.

Oh, I'm really hoping it's Neal Adams's Havok. I don't want him in a leather
jacket.

I finally got Thanos, Namor, Hawkeye, Mr Fantastic and Luke Cage this WE !Thanos is great, but my favorite is Hawkeye, wonderful paint job ! The paint on Reed and Namor face is awesome for such small figurines.

For my french comrades (I share information, guys!) , be aware that in Paris the Pulp's store is selling figurines importated from UK (that's why I got Powerman nearly 2 months before his french release date). If the DC Classic Collection is not released in France, it may be a way to purchase the collection after all (I don't care if the magazine is written in English and not in French since I suppose it will be a piece of crap like the one sold with the Marvel Collection).

I noticed a strange paint job on Luke Cage trousers, as if the blue paint was a bit worn. I don't know if it is made on purpose, but it gives a "blue jean" look to it, kinda cool !

Be sure to sting his bow! All you need is a single human hair and some glue.

And a steady hand!

I was at WonderCon this weekend -- I saw a Captain Marvel (Genis-Vell) with a painted white tunic and a red tunic ??  I don't recall the white version of the Peter David run -- is one variant more rare, or valuable than the other?

I had to resist the urge to buy any -- I can't afford to start a new hobby, these figurines could very easily become addicting.

When (not if) you do start collecting, I highly recommend writing the name of the figure on each box before you store it.
