    Well, I guess this will be my first time I've ever actually used or looked at Bagman's powers. I assumed it would never happen.

    So this is confirmation no Howard PVE running?
    Also confirmation that the next Crash will reward Howard instead of an LT?

    I wonder how many people have rostered Bagman? And what level their Bagman is at? I'm sure a very, very few have him at level 144. Mine is at 76 and fully covered.

    They should boost Bagman like 300 levels, just for fun.

    Count me in as an owner of a 144 Bag-Champ.

    I'm very excited to win more Bagmans at a greater rate than once every 3 months!!! I win more 5*s than Bagmans!

    The Kamala Khan cover makes me chuckle because all of the characters lying in a heap at the bottom have the power of flight.

    Wow I have been so disenchanted with the vaulting and vintage "solution" to it, that I thought nothing could cheer me up. But the baby covers made me smile and the return of a more accessible bagman has really Given me something to be excited about. I am looking forward to the bagman tourney for sure. Thanks for hearing the (maybe limited) call to get more chances to collect champ levels for bagman.

    My Bagman is currently 5/1/5 with another purple on the vine. Looking forward to a chance to get more blues!

    Love the BP cover! icon_e_biggrin.gif


    Also, Bagman event is nice, maybe I'll finally get some more covers as they come in very slowly because I don't play much of PVP.

    I vote for at least the BP cover to be made permanent :3

    Special "Holiday" events are always welcome and appreciated. Thanks MPQ!

    My champed L122 Bagman is ready for duty, and looking forward to earning additional champ levels.

    I feel like Young is in a never-ending competition with Art Baltazar to see who can draw the most hilariously adorable superheroes and we're all winning.

    This is great! Way to reward players that collect all covers and play all events. Looking forward to max champ Bagman during this event. Been getting him sporadically as rewards for random Lightning Round fights and I'm pretty close. Wanna see what the Vintage Heroics is all about as well during this off season.
