Here it is in all it’s final production in package glory, Marvel Select Spider-Man! This figure features a highly detailed sculpt by the one and only Digger. It also features a crazy smashed compact car base. Look for it in comic stores near you soon!

By now you should have seen the upcoming Marvel Select Cyclops figure and his amazing Danger Room base, but as always this Marvel Select release has more than meets the eye!  While the traditional Silver Age Cyclops will be the most readily available version (the recently released Silver Age Marvel Girl is glad to hear that!) - there will also be an alternate X-Factor Cyclops included in each case (that makes 4 Silver Age Cyclops and 2 X-Factor Cyclops).  The only way to get your grubby little X-paws on the variant Cyclops is to purchase a full case through Previews though, so make sure your retailer of choice knows that they need to add this figure to their order form.

Will this trend of Danger Room bases continue?  Will the Marvel Select line continue to give the X-Men their dues?  Both good questions for our next installment of AskDST - so submit your questions here!

This week, DST Chuck cleans house and answers all the questions left over! Jump in after the break!
