    I've got two purpleflag.png and one yellowflag.png but I haven't actually rostered him yet. I'm toying with the idea of dumping vision to make room for bagman.

    I'd love to fight a lvl395 bagman, that would be great. You could run a doc ock PvE where you beat star.pngstar.pngstar.png spidey and he comes back as 395 bagman for the final battle.
  • I actually started doing this about 2 months ago. I never kept him before because Roster Space was reserved for my 3* Transition. But now, I want him. LOL

    3 purpleflag.png
    1 blueflag.png
    2 yellowflag.png
    Level 39 and counting...

    This is truly a marathon of luck...I did not pull any Bag-Man covers all week...

    I am curious to see just how much time it will actually take...stay tuned! icon_e_wink.gif

    I was lucky and grabbed the three bagman covers from the prologue before they turned into icon_ms_marvel.png . I have a 315 now that I've yet to dump iso into bit every so often I get the urge to. Just one cover til I get him to my desired 415 build.
  • I've had a fully covered Bag-Man for a while now. Probably thanks to my OCD, I have one of every character in the game and just can't part with the useless ones. He and Yelena sit at a pathetic lvl 27 and probably won't ever get much further. They do see some use for easy PvE nodes, though, for the sheer fun of it.

    It took a while but I finally scored another Bag-Man cover... icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Another yellowflag.png though so hopefully near the end I won't pull extra ones of those instead of the one I actually need to finish covering the character... icon_e_wink.gif
  • By the unwritten rules of MPQ, you WILL pull extra ones. icon_mrgreen.gif
    Just promise you won't buy that one elusive missing cover in the end. icon_e_wink.gif

    I will try to resist buying the last elusive cover... icon_lol.gif

    It won't be difficult to do I think...I would not spend 500 HP just to win a fake contest without prizes...I am very competitive but not that much... icon_e_wink.gif

    Picked up my third cover last night in weapons tex mex. I now have one of each cover. The question is when I am going to need that bagman slot for a new character since my hp reserves are starting to run low....

    Yeah...roster slots are at a premium these days. icon_eek.gif

    We also get more & more incentives to keep as many characters as possible with things like the multiple weekly boosted characters, star.pngstar.png PvE essentials, Deadpool Daily Quest & all... icon_e_confused.gif

    I've never sold any character that I've build up (except maybe a few star.png near the beginning) so I've been reaping some benefits of a diversified roster over the last little while but the price for each new roster slot is really pilling up now (I think that I am at 800 spideycoin.png for the next one) & it is difficult to keep up. The only thing helping me is that I have all the star.pngstar.pngstar.png & most of the star.pngstar.pngstar.pngstar.png characters at one point or another in terms of covers so at least it is only new characters that need roster space now rather than every cover I earn like it was about 6 months ago... icon_cool.gif

    800hp per slot for me too. I have all the three stars, missing prof x and missing moonstone and bullseye at the 2 star level. I think doc ock at 1 cover will get the chop next if I'm desperate for slots

    I cant wait for the pve event that has devil Dino, bag man and maybe yelena as the three essentials icon_razz.gif

    The forum would burst into flames so bad if that ever happened... icon_lol.gif

    After chucking two covers away a long time ago i finally pulled another one and readily opened up a roster slot (800hp also) for him.

    If i could ever pull that BP cover instead of every other support character i wouldn't grumble at 800HP roster slots.... that much.

    Well I took a while again but a Lightning Round reward came to the recue after a week of star.pngstar.pngicon_spiderman.png cover drought! icon_cool.gif

    I scored a second blueflag.png cover this time around. I am still waiting on my first purpleflag.png though but I am slowly getting there. icon_e_wink.gif

    I haven't seen a bagman cover since the day this thread was started.. had trashed so many in the past, now that i want to build him.. 1 cover on the first day, not a single one since.
  • I want this character so badly. icon_e_sad.gif

    But I can't even get PVP cover drops, let alone this specific guy.

    The drops are indeed few & far apart for this character which makes this friendly contest a real challenge but hang in there everone, your luck should eventually change.

    For me, Lightning Rounds were a good place to find a cover here & there up until now but I play a lot less of those these days as the match ups are usually too difficult to bother trying to spend time on them.

    The marathon continues... icon_e_wink.gif

    Picked up another 2 covers in the last two pvp. At 1/2/2 now. I may actually have him covered in a reasonable amount of time.

    Good on you mate! icon_mrgreen.gif

    I did not pick up any since last week's Lightning Rounds. At the pace that I am going since the beginning of this friendly challenge, it will take me around a week or so per missing cover if my average can be trusted which means another 2 months maybe before I finish it off (if I get all the right covers). icon_e_wink.gif
