"Location."

So I ended up not cramming Moon Knight into the shots, partly for dialogue reasons; but mainly because that would've been too many big plastic capes in a small space. I was complaining before, about this most recent Vision figure that we're using today: I feel like Marvel Legends has gone to that particular well multiple times, like he's a go-to in character selection to fill out a wave. See also: Red Skull. Maybe I'm underestimating the demand for both, but I pretty much have all of them I need: is today's figure that much better than the standard Vision from 2012 or thereabouts? What I wouldn't mind, though, is a cloth cape for him: I should look into aftermarket/third-party ones. Because, I've mentioned before, the Vision could sit the hell out of a chair, couch, lounger, whatever.

If Vision thinks that’s bad, what till he starts watching any one of those numerous reality tv shows. “We’ll see how fascinated he becomes from realizing certain groups of humans can become famous for doing absolutely nothing.

I still feel the 2012 ML version of Vish truly is still THE standard of ML Vision figures, but this newer ones’ not too bad either. He could definitely benefit from being given a cloth cape & I’m not sure why Hasbro doesn’t when Todd is willing to go there other than it being a purely extra expense they don’t want.

Hmm, maybe if they brought in someone already crazy like Madcap or Slapstick…?

I still think ‘Pool has a chance of solving this but it’s looking less likely if Vision’s in the ‘can see’ column.

That could still happen I guess, but it depends on if Mr. Googum intends on Wade being the macguffin to solve this or not. Wade could always use the excuse he was busy promoting his movie…

Yeah, I’m basically throwing out ideas based on who goo’s used before and could feasibly show up. I have no insight into where this is going or if goo even has a solution worked out yet.
