ML - Thor. It's just so big, and for one of the early ones, that' somewhat unusual. There are many figures in here that are close, but I look at that figure and see the comic come into three dimensions, especially standing by Cap and towering over him, just as he should.
SMC - gotta agree with Mikey, Hobgoblin rules. Fantastic articulation, extremely poseable and nasty looking without the hood. Looks pretty benign with it on, but take it off and it scares little kids.
XMC - not fair to say, because I only own and have seen Archangel. It's a nice figure and while I might someday pick up a Cyclops, this one does it.
HC - right now it's Mr. Fixit, again, the only one I own. I am happy I chose that one. The only other I've seen in person was smart Hulk and ultimately I didn't by it. It was very nice, no doubt and the other pictures look great. Anyone else think that this line was seriously limited by the crappy Hulk movie toys from last year? It didn't even make it to Canada (yet?) as there are still plenty of lousy movie figures around. I do have Absorbing Man somewhere between Minnesota and Manitoba, so we'll see when it arrives.
