That include Angela?

I'm really looking forward to a whole team display to see how these play off each other. Really hope they make a Drax for this line soon.

Yes, that includes Angela. CM, Gamora, and Angela will all fit inside a single STUVA cube, so I am excited to display them like how they appear in the prototype pics.

"Collectors" are a weird bunch. "O Sh** no one wants that! Do you see the ES!! I want it!"
There was more interest in Supergirl than Groot =/

I second this also Groots EX leaves alot to be desired for. I personally would never display it.

I think they should have been ballsy and made Rocket the EX. Then it would have been a must have.

I PO'd them both regardless.

I think price hurts these compared to all the other characters being offered as well...Bane, Venom, Carnage, etc...lots of popular/well known characters either out or up for PO right now.

Just saw a preview for the cover of the next GotG volume (yet again a new #1...sigh) and the costumes have changed already. Not so much an issue with these Rocket and Groot statues but I'd avoid any other Gaurdians in the outdated, one-note Bendis era Marvel Now costumes (aka Gamora...keeps auto correcting to Gatorade btw).

Hopefully Star-Lord doesn't get the Marvel Now costume. It's now but a footnote in the history of the character and its also ugly. Annilialtion, team costume or movie inspired costume from his recent solo series are probably the best choices.

Kind of surprised the EX Groot ES is 350 and still hasn't been waitlisted. Thats rough :/

Just the cover art has been released as far as I know. Marvel with the "All-New" again.

And I haven't kept up with the Bendis stuff so I'm not sure why Groot is a baby again aside from because: upcoming movie. Because the baby Groot thing the movie adapted is from a storyline years ago and Groot certainly grew back to full size since then in the comics so...

I like Star-Lord's costume. Its a cool mix of classic and contemporary looks. Space Psylocke up there. Drax is supposed to be attempting (i.e. Struggling with) some sort of pacifism hence his look. I don't like the look but in regards to the direction they're taking him it does fit and might be interesting (although Wonder Man had a similar storyline, trying to practice pacifism on a team of warriors...didn't work out too well for him).

Angela, Kitty, Flash, Thing...all gone. Obviously going for the movie feel.
