So I was thinking...
Based on the info from ToyFair - or should I say the mixed signals - it seems that SHS will continue...but prolly only as 3-packs, as the 2-packs will be dissolved and replaced by that Imaginext clone line.
Today, I was able to pick up the new Thor/IM 3-packs - $30 for 3 new figs is a doozey.
And the next wave isnt ant better: Frost Giant/Thor/Sif, Hydra Soldier/Cap/Cycle and Bucky/Cap/Red Skull
Ugh, Im not sure the line can survive @ that rate. Which brings me to my question:
What ideas do you have for 3-packs following the pattern of only 1 new figure, repaint/repack the rest?

Good one. That one will sell, Im sure - at least with collectors.
How abt: Spidey / Kraven / Mary Jane? (technically Mary Jane is a repack....so is Kraven, really)

If they wanted to make a quick buck off of X-men first class they could do
Beast-Professor X-Emma Frost
Frost could be new, more like her astonishing or new x-men look, plus it would get the ultra rare X back out there.
and
Mystique-Magneto-Sebastion Shaw
Another way to get a rare figure rereleased along with a standard repack and new character.
A Daredevil-Bullseye-Kingpin would work.
I still don't understand why they don't have a Cap-Winter Soldier-Crossbones pack planned.

You're certainly right about that last one. I want my Winter soldier and Crossbones figures.
More likely we'd see a Falcon, Cap and Winter Soldier or Crossbones though.

BUT Winter Soldier and Crossbones could be considered repacks, since that set WAS released somewhere so the figs were made.
Jester - I thought abt Vision (white or phasing) too. My only concern is do we need an anchor character in every 3 pack (ie Thor, Cap, Wolv, Hulk, IM, Spidey)? It wasnt a stipulation I originally made, but I wonder if thats actually part of the formula.
Rust - Daredevil-Bullseye-Kingpin is perfect!...unless Daredevil isnt popular enuff, then we'd need a way to get Kingpin with Spidey.

Because they've done it with the last two movies, I can see them doing an Evolutions pack for Cap: WWII, Modern, Ultimate.
Depending on how they end the Cap movie, we could see an Avengers tease: Thor, Iron Man, Cap. But that'll prolly be next year.

Jubilee/Gambit (new sculpt)/Roque (rerelease)

So I'm curious....what about the Toys 'R' Us Collector packs? Will those still get produced?

How about Cap, Namor and Torch? Invaders sort of thing......
Or Cap, Dum Dum (i wish) and Fury?
OR Cap, Zemo and Skull?
I'd also quite like to see Spidey, Sandman (four pack one) and Mysterio or Chameleon
Spidey, Blade and Morbius

Ooo Invaders would be really fun!
Captain America (1st release, but new shield sculpt)
Human Torch (repaint of Galactus figure, with heat lines)
Namor (green speedo variant)
The Spidey, Daredevil & Kingpin would work well too.
And 7th, yeah, every three pack should have at least one of the heavy hitters: Spidey, Wolverine, Ironman, Captain America, Hulk, or Thor. (Am I missing anyone?)

Dormammu (Giant sized), Doctor Strange repaint and . . . Mephisto! Or a Mindless one... perhaps. But I really want a big Dormammu...
and I think a Onslaught, new Magneto and new Prof X would be lovely.
Punisher-repaint (and re-weapon?), Deadpool repaint and Microchip

Yeh, but they weren't actually released in a manner which meant that any of us could really get them. And I want my Crossbones and Winter Soldier figures!!  (his face was the angriest emoticon) What about: Wolverine, Warpath and Hepzibah. I know it's two new figs, but it gets them both released. Wolverine, Deadpool and Domino. or Wolverine, Gambit and Gladiator |
