Just picked these up from Bounty Hunter Toys yesterday - and I have to say, after the terrible problematic wave 11 - wave 12 is back up to par.
Here is what I think is the good
Bishop - great figure - I don't have any negative comments for him - detail/paint app is all above par on this guy - his facial sculpt alone is one of the best so far.
Maestro Hulk - another large piece of plastic - great sculpt and great paint.
Iron Fist - Was never a big fan of the character - so probably the week point in the wave in my opinion.
X-23 - strange that this one is the purple figure and the variant is the black costume - I thought the figure was going to break the moment I had here out of the package as she is so skinny - but I was surprised - she is probably the best put together female figure so far.
Sasquatch - I wish we could get the rest of Alpha Flight but I don't that will ever happen - the figure is great, the shoulder articulation on this one is different than any other marvel legend so far, and it really works for this figure - really gives a sense of strength and flexibility
Wolverine - we might be the best wolverine so far - the claws are actually straight, and the extra little POA in at the top of his boots, and swivel wrist really make this figure fun to pose.
The Bad - and these are minor complaints compared to Wave 11
Wolverines belt - when put the swivel there? the split X looks really weird if he is twisted.
Sasquatch - none - other than I think I now want the variant figure!
X-23 - it might just be me, but here head appears a little too large.
Iron Fist - he has very large shoulders that distract from the figure unless he is in an attacking pose - his left hand is also kind of in a funky slapping or "karate-chop" pose.
Bishop - none -wish he came with one or two more weapons so that I could give them to Cable.
Maestro Hulk - his hat doesn't really stay on very well, but he looks OK without it.
My only Major complaint about this entire line is Apocalypse - I only remember him ever getting really big in one X-Factor comic (21 I think with Archangel) but even then that doesn't really bother me that much as how doesn't like a massive action figure that you have to build yourself. My main complaint is I didn't get all of the parts - Maestro Hulk came with an arm, but no rubber hose to connect to his back! I really want that hose! Here's to hoping that I can find another collector that doesn't want to get the entire line, and doesn't want to build Apocalypse.
Stupid Toy Biz, it could have been a damn near perfect wave. And the more I look at these figures, the more I want all 5, yes that is FIVE of SIX, variants. Bounty Hunter has them in stock, I just couldn't drop any more money this close to Christmas. I really wasn't expecting this line until Feb. or March.
