Taskmaster is a must. Doc Samson's a strong maybe.

for Hobgoblin!)

All but War Machine for me.  Definitely gotta fix Hobgoblin's hood.

Doc Samson goes on the "must buy" list for me. And the Hobgoblin's hood is so "off" it's almost distracting from the figure as a whole.

Gladiator, Morbius and the Watcher arrived today.

Watch is HUGE!!!!!  He's the same height as Galactus and much, much beefier!

HEEEEAWGE!

 

Morbius is very nice by the way.

Jubilee.  I was on the fence with her.  Definitely not getting this one either.

Jack of Hearts.  Oh, yeah! I'm not even a big fan but how can I skip this over-the-top guy?  Though, I think John Bodin's work was looking much better than this sculpt.

Wow -- as if real-world distractions from my hobbies aren't enough to sidetrack my efforts and kill my enthusiasm, now I discover that Eaglemoss is producing a VERY nice Jack of Hearts!

Looks very similar to what I was working on, but I am envisioning the less-ornate downward-pointing arrows on the "loincloth" for my stalled-in-progress custom.

Well, I'm definitely in for both Gladiator and Jack of Hearts.  I might have gotten Jubilee, as I think she's a fun character, but that sculpt captures nothing that I like about her.  It's not even a very good likeness!  Pass on her.

As far as the five posted above, I'll get all of them but War Machine.  I may change my mind depending on how he looks in person, but he's not a favorite of mine by a long shot.

I did pick up Man-Thing and Warlock yesterday.  Nice additions to the ever expanding collection!
