Q&A

Check out slides from the panel below.

BAF Rocket Raccoon is a good possibility.

Orange Fing Fang Foom is on hold till they can figure out a way to bring it to folks. They decided to go with the Hellicarrier and didn't want to offer two big items cause of price. It could make its way back in the line at some point.

Should see more MU on shelves soon. Other Marvel lines slowed down the MU stuff a bit this year but the stuff is coming.

Stryfe was never intended to be a ML Build-A-Figure. Stryfe is being redone so its a much better figure and released down the road.

Ab Crunch joint for female bodies is not in the works right now, but never say never.
