One A Day 2.0: Day #188 - Pete Wisdom

Yes, please for Pete. Until then I'm using the new Mandarin with the claws and a head swap. I like that figure better for Pete than for the Mandarin. I've continued to use the Toy Biz Face Off Mandarin (traffic cone) in my display.
 
When did Pete Wisfom join The Cars? (Pic 8)
I’d take Pete, but I would like him to stand out a bit from all the other “guys in suits” (beyond just the hands). Make it happen Hasbro.
 
Huge want for Pete Wisdom, been a favorite of mine for 30 years and a top ten want in Legends since I started buying them, but having just stuck Pretty Boy's head on the new Mandarin body, I've got a pretty perfect part-swapped stand in so I can wait. Of course because I'm extremely happy with my parts-swapped custom this means they'll make him, on the Mandarin body, in the next twelve months.
 
Pete was never my favorite as I was always a Kitty/Colossus devotee, and I only followed Excalibur because I like Nightcrawler so much, but when they added Colossus back from his time with the Acolytes I had to follow it. Was never a fan of pirate goatee Nightcrawler though. I didn't fully understand Pete or his powers exactly but this was around the time of Marrow and Maggott, so there were a lot of mutants that were a little odd.

I would buy him as a necessary gap filler though, as he was a portion of Excalibur for a while, thought I think the PrettyBoy custom that was put together turned out pretty well. I have to wonder if it might even be better than what Hasbro would give us.

I might actually try to paint the clawed Mandarin hands fire colored to see if it works for his hot knives effect. For now I use a fire effect blast (I think I'm using the one from MCU Loki's sword?) but the claw would look cooler I think.

Pretty Boy's face isn't perfect but it it's wild how good it looks as a stand-in for Pete.
