Iron Fist Angel I think he's a cool figure. I wouldn't be surprised if they did a running change with the red Angel costume with the halo. I remember picking up a few of the Chris Claremont-Paul Smith X-Men issues with Angel in that costume. I can put him on the shelf with the Giant Size X-Men box set figures. Hope they do a Banshee, classic Beast, Marvel Girl and Polaris figures. I'm also hoping with them showing Sasquatch on the back of some of the packaging he's the next Alpha Flight member to be made into a figure. If the do any more comic packs they can repaint the Psylocke figure as Aurora and maybe Captain Marvel as Northstar. Just throwing those out there, maybe the newer body style on Northstar.

The red halo Angel is in the X-Factor box set. I got the old Toybiz Beast for that and made my own Polaris from a Storm. I desperately want to see Banshee for the box set/Claremont team because that was when I found X-Men. A classic Marvel Girl would be nice but the skirt is the issue-it's the only version of her that is not skin tight spandex.

Don't know if it's a running change or a variant though.

The X-Factor/Apocalypse set has red/white Angel where the white on his torso/shoulders/etc. is a big white X, not the long white torso strip with the halo from his Defenders days.

Three walmarts, two targets, one TRU, and a Kmart. Results? Aside from a wca set that I already have, absolutely no new MU figures. It looks like 2012's crappy distribution continues.

Found the 3 new 3 packs at Toys R Us, the WCA is okay but not on my list or in my budget. Inhumans and Xmen sets are great. Went to a LCS and they had several Pucks, Hercs, Angels, and Nighthawks. Good hunting day.
