MAFEX May 2024 Reveals: X-Men Rogue, JL Flash

While I'm still awaiting more reveals from Knightfall, Batman: Hush or Superman Returns/The Reign of the Supermen, I take a look at the two new reveals coming from Mafex with the May reveals.

[@bkr8932]

Green Lantern is a solid idea for a Mafex

[@LylesFigureFiles]

I'd love to see him show up soon-ish!

[@JeminiThaBard]

The latest Rogue we got from Hasbro, The Xmen 97 one, leg straps are actually sculpted on.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Ahh. Thank you!

[@GBru-hx6rx]

There's also the possibility that they could solicit AoA Weapon X or Cyclops, as we've already seen prototypes for them. The AoA Cyclops, though only seen in gray scale so far, is already leaps and bounds over the ML version we already have.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Oh yeah, I will probably grab that AOA Cyke because I really am not a fan of the ML version.

[@GBru-hx6rx]

@@LylesFigureFiles what, you mean you didn't like receding hairline Cyclops?

[@gregarcher8177]

I love this rogue, I cant wait to get it in hand. I don't mind the blowing hair.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Nice. Do you have the other Mafex X-Men?

[@sundownstudios2.075]

I Would love a Jim Lee Beast from Mafex as well as an Archangel.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

I'd love to see their take on Archangel too!

[@thewatcher9500]

The rogue hair is blowing . they got to stop the hair blowing sculpt unless it's extra we need just calm hair on the stoic Head

[@LylesFigureFiles]

I agree. Or at least don't use it with every sculpt!

[@leftylion816]

MAFEX is my go-to for classic DC comic based figures. Doing my best to get all of the Reign of the Supermen and Batman: HUSH characters. As much as I love the Flash as a character, I never really liked Ezra Miller's portrayal in the JL movies and so I didnt really have a desire to get his figures.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

I hope they figure out a good theme to get both Barry and Wally in MAFEX!

[@doboyx2]

That Rogue definitely should have had relaxed hair on the neutral face head.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Yeah, I'm curious if they did a face plate instead of three with the same hair sculpt.

[@GBru-hx6rx]

I'm getting that Rogue. Also, that Ezra Miller Flash should come with a chair to hit people with...

[@LylesFigureFiles]

LOL. There's the missing accessory!

[@pocketmego-Ray]

The DCEU stuff needs to go away. If Warner bros is killing it, why do we need more and more figures from it?

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Yeah, it's a little weird since these are barely relevant now and knowing when the figures come out it'll be time for all the characters in James Gunn's Superman movie.

[@tomfin-wo5vc]

Oh, the pop culture references! I miss Chuck Woolery! I’m in for Rogue. I don’t disagree that Hasbro has her pretty well covered, but I have most of the Mafex X-Men outside of a Wolverine and some of the variants, so no why stop now.? As for the DCU, “Nobody likes you, Booster!” (That’s a Jingle All the Way reference, not a Booster Gold reference. 😉)

[@LylesFigureFiles]

I'm always disappointed when I miss a good opportunity for a solid pop culture reference! --I understood that reference!

[@phewkyu7079]

The jacket will reduce the biceps swiffle and totally lack the articulation

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Don't think they will accommodate it, huh?

Mafex look good i just think the prices are wack .And they too small for me

[@LylesFigureFiles]

What price point do you think would be fair?

@@LylesFigureFiles 🤔 about $50 max

@@LylesFigureFiles about $50

[@lostonwallace1396]

Not really into these, to be honest. lol. Interesting to see that most offerings tend to be either modern movie related, or strictly '90s stuff. I'd love to see some GL stuff from Mafex!

[@LylesFigureFiles]

Mafex GL figures would be really fun!

[@sebastian8040]

Im coming to the realization that Mafex doesn’t care with their mediocre faces, body, same hair sculpts, paint jobs and lack of accessories that they’re releasing. Almost like they’re not even tryin bc they know people will still buy them. They do have some nice figures but they also release some basic half ass ones too.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

I think they have to fight Marvel Legends for some of these figures and if an ML is good enough that makes the Mafex price harder to justify.

[@powerturtlebusters]

Rogue face is terrible. Not the worst, but could of been better

[@LylesFigureFiles]

What would have made it terrible? Old Toy Biz version?

[@bkr8932]

The Jean Grey had the same issue

[@CriticalEnjoyer]

I can't anymore with these Mafexes. Pancake asses and pleather aren't worth a hundo.

[@LylesFigureFiles]

LOL. Not exactly hotcakes, huh?

Sho u right
