Enjoyed the review! That is one comic pack I would like to get. One of the earliest comics I ever read was Warlock and I loved the Infinite Guantlet storyline. These two characters bring back fond memories of very early comic book reading, even if it was next to impossible to get new comics in my hometown back in those days.

damn good review. I'm tempted to repaint my single carded Thanos to get him closer to those colors... maybe I will. I like this set, I just don't feel the need to buy it (or attempt to track it down). the not-gold-enough yellow gauntlet is very classic 80's Lion-O

I simply loved IG as I said, and the figs match it pretty good (dispite Thanos lack of acurate colors). I was an old hat by the time IG came to be though LOL. I had similar problems with comic back in my day, we never got a regular newstand until 1985 and got a comic shop in 1990. I remember discovering mail order so that I finally could get ahold of Alpha Flight once it went to direct sales only (I loved Alpha Flight BTW). From what I have seen upcoming this is probably close to the last of the comic packs I will go out of my way for, but you never know (I still need wonderman/Quicksilver and Sinister/Gambit too). Funny thing about the Gauntlet, it's accurate to the comic, but keep in mind the tech wasn't too good to mass print that kind of gold color too, just a flat yellow (I mean it was 1990, such a primitive age, but the comics were cool LOL).

I like Alpha Flight too
sucks Guardian is the only Alpha Flighter in the MU line. yeah Puck is forthcoming but it's a lame figure for a dumb character (the only crap Alpha member IMO). I'm talking Sasquatch, Vindicator, Shaman, Snowbird, and the twins.

Yeah you can leave out box.
Personally I love Puck, but the fig sucks, should be more articulated.

If anyone gets a duplicate Adam Warlock, I'll take the Infinity Gauntlet off their hands.
