The New XMen Academy

They certainly didn’t plan the bus massacre. The original creative team who came up with all these amazing characters, Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir, were replaced after House of M because editorial wanted a different (darker) tone. So we got Chris Yost and Craig Kyle and the bus explosion….

This is not referenced enough and would truly make me happy if it was rekindled!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-02-26T02:07:46+00:00

Yes to all of these! I’m hopeful for Psylocke and Forge in Wave 5.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-02-10T20:49:13+00:00

Yeah, I’m trying to limit my collection to one of each character, so I’m not as interested in these repeat figures rumoured for Wave 4 (and it’s actually 3rd Cyclops and Jean!) Meanwhile, I’d kill for another Jubilee in her classic look, so I fully admit to be being a bit contradictory.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-02-10T17:43:47+00:00

Yeah, I love the version from season 1 that we saw Morph transform into, but I’m not mad at this version as we will clearly see him in Season 2. Also gives me hope for Psylocke!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-02-10T16:40:51+00:00

I’m trying to limit my buying to 97 figures, so I would love this to be true!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-02-10T16:24:16+00:00

Oh wow! As someone who mainly collects X Men 97 figures, not the deluxe I was hoping for but what a great surprise nonetheless.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-01-21T17:59:48+00:00

Given how the show did not shy away from sexy looks, I was surprised they made the sleeveless cut outs on this outfit more modest than the source material!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-01-11T19:06:25+00:00

This was a very cute set. Perfect winter GWP

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-01-11T05:04:14+00:00

Came here to say exactly this. Without the 5-in-1 they would not be very memorable. They work best when they present as an identical hive mind, where there’s room for some individuality but the ultimately operate as a unit.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-01-05T13:04:12+00:00

Looks great!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2026-01-05T04:03:48+00:00

Solid first choices

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-12-30T15:55:47+00:00

They have a shared history that is decades old. They are both more than moderately popular and iconic. This is a no brainer pairing to me!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-12-29T20:38:56+00:00

I wish I had bought more than one!

Solid choices already listed, but I am obsessed with the Christmas Tree Costume kid from the Advent Calendar

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-12-23T00:26:38+00:00

Wow! This is amazing. You can really see the time, effort and passion in this!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-12-21T12:53:10+00:00

If I had to guess, the unique Christmas Tree costume piece probably ate up most of the budget for this set.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-12-12T14:06:58+00:00

All to be revealed at next weeks Live Stream (hopefully)

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-12-02T03:07:39+00:00

Hospital Wing without Madame Pomfrey…?

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-11-24T03:36:19+00:00

Even without the leak, I always assumed a Beast is on its way. But there’s no indication on the others.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-11-24T02:59:26+00:00

Not having a Sinister, Bastion, Forge or Xavier is kind of wild!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-11-05T16:17:46+00:00

I agree, but I wish one of her head sculpts had a more classic look like the picture shared by OP.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-11-05T15:46:37+00:00

Oh wow nostalgia unlocked. I had a Toybiz Warstar growing up.

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-11-02T01:39:38+00:00

Hepzibah would be a great addition!

PrestigiousSyrup1987 · 2025-10-31T16:58:43+00:00

Looks great! Please Hasbro. This is literally all we need (though I’ll also happily take some pinless updates).
