I only collect X-Men characters. So I'll be getting Colossus and Sabretooth. The rest don't intrest me. And Toy Biz's chase Red Skull is both a peice of crap and a rip-off, for collectors who have to get one of every figure.

I've only bought Dr. Doom and Magneto, since they rule so much. Nothing else interests me that much to make them worth the money. Have they released a Gambit yet? I'd buy him!

Gambit was in ML series 4, alongside Beast, Punisher, and the shortpacked Elektra. There's also the 5th Chase figure, Giant Man.

I snagged a Gambit, and that was about it, the other stuff I can do without. Although the new X-Men Legends are coming out soon....

Nyet. Howard the Duck is a Marvel Comics character. And Silver Surfer was the best fit for the Duck from another dimension.

Question about theese figures:

I see theese all the time in the toy store I work at and I think they are such awesome figures, even though I'm not a real marvel fan. Today there was a new shipment and there was a "The Thing" figure that was wearing a trenchcoat and sunglasses. All the other Thing figures were normal, and this was the only one I've ever seen. What's the deal with that? I hid it somewhere in the store so if its ultra rare or something I can buy it.

I dunno about the toy, but I know Thing used to wear a trenchcoat and sunglasses in the early issues of FF to disguise himself so ordinary people wouldn't freak when they saw him. Someone else can probably help with if the figure is a rare
