Legacy Minerva. The mould is certainly more on the traditionally cutesy side, it suits her well and the paintwork really pops. Elita-1 might be a late pickup after all if I end up enjoying it.

Well everyone I know, knew I wasn't able to track down a Cosmos.

That kind of thing normally spells out CHRISTMAS, so I patiently stayed away from the secondary market.... Christmas has come and gone with no Cosmos, so eBay here I come.

A shame to hear that Kelpie. I only ever saw Cosmos once at Kmart and it wasn't by random spotting. I had to monitor web stock levels, know how my local stores behave in reality according to those levels and make phone calls to secure mine. One Cosmos per assortment was a really, really stupid move by Hasbro. One thing I have noticed is that Sunbow G1 pretty much sells the best of any figure of any Legacy/Studio Series case assortment. If I were a Hasbro executive, I would make it a standing order that any cartoon-accurate G1 represents half the case assortment, or reappears in the subsequent wave.
