Alphan East, looks like some mix'n'match there - Aurora, Northstar, Vindicator, Puck and Snowbird from the 1998(?) Toybiz double packs, minus the owl. Sasquatch is the regular 2005 Marvel Legends version and the Guardian is the Toyfare mail-away bonus figure. Nice! The Sasquatch that came with the Toybiz double pack (with Vindicator) was only a tiny bit taller than the other figures, so it's a good thing you subbed him out for the taller one. Love it!
I was going to correct you that they're all from the Toybiz line (except the Guardian, who wasn't in it), but you're right of course. I've just checked my collection and...Originally Posted by rplass
Wait... where did that Guardian figure come from? Was there a Marvel Legends Guardian?
Seriously, I've got a Guardian action figure that I don't remember owning! Gah! What's wrong with me?
I never got my hands on a Wizard mail-away, and my custom-made figure is accounted for...
... minus the owl and the wolverine.

Okay, researching it, it looks like mine is a Marvel Legends Wal*Mart exclusive. We don't even have Wal*Mart in Australia. Did I order it over Amazon? Did I buy it on a trip to the 'States? This is going to drive me madder until I forget about it.
Then I found this:

Yeah, the Guardian figure wasn't a walmart exclusive that I know of as I easily managed to get one over here.
In my head it's a Pointer figure due to the amount of blue and the packaging artwork, with the elusive Toyfare Mail Order as Mac.
Some of the images I saw on Google had 'Wal*Mart exclusive' stickers, but that could be U.S. only.
While it makes a lot of sense to see it as Pointer, in my mind it's Mac until / unless I get the Toyfair Mail Order one...
I liked the link, Le Mess; hilarious!

Why the heck did they package Puck upside down?

As much as I have been vocal about my opinion of Greg Land's style, I still fell in love with these pages from Uncanny X-Men #508 and picked it up at NYCC2011. Yup, 1st appearance of Kyle!
That's pages 16 and 17. The overlay image goes with the ski slope panel of course.
Just picked up the Alpha Flight Vol. 4 TPB. I've been trying to collect any and all TPBs and HCs relating to Alpha Flight.
Here's my collection... please let me know if there are any that I may be missing. Thanks.
The Flight Forever !
It's hard to look at it and figure out anything missing, but there are two editions of that first one (you have at least three things that have the first X-Men / AF mini in them...), and I believe v4 was split into two tpbs.

Yeah, the first 3 editions have the mini series called "The Gift"... one of my favourite Alpha story arcs.you have at least three things that have the first X-Men / AF mini in them.
That's what I thought, but the edition I picked up has the entire run. It has issue 0.1 and also issues 1 - 8.and I believe v4 was split into two tpbs.
The Flight Forever !
Mine, too!
There must've been a later release, then, with everything. I lost track.
