The 5* don't specifically look fan favourite, but in the 4* with increased odds I see some favourites.
Not sure why yellow Crystal is included, but the other 3 are Green & Red which are festive colours.
Maybe a reminder not to eat yellow snow from Crystal!

High on the Fan Fav survey that weren’t picked for previous recent stores.

I mean, Omega Red keeps popping up at the top of the most wanted list of characters, and he's consistently jobbed by the X-Men after being built up time after time. He's the Boba Fett/Worf of Marvel. I've given up on anticipating who the player base votes for on these things after around the top 5.
This is some shocking truths for optimal playstyle players. Lol.
Based on my memory, in no particular order, Kitty, Dr Strange, OML and Okoye were the top fan favourite. Apocalypse, BRB, Wanda, Colossus (?) and Shang Chi came later. So, these four probably got T20 placements. I wonder where Spideys, Caps, IM and Hulk are ranked in that survey because I thought they are pretty mainstream.
Abigail is awesome. Just took her for a spin with Hawkeyeball and it was hilarious.
It sounds like there would be some interest in seeing the top-20 (?) results from the fan fave survey. Any chance that data could be shared, now or from future polls? There often seems to be a disconnect between the fan faves of forum regulars vs the wider player-base, seeing the empirical evidence of the poll might temper the reaction to seeing Dr Strange (again). Or it may do nothing more than fan the flames.. either way it should be fun.
I struggle to believe previous fan favs that weren’t recently used have dropped below abi, Garg and electra. Maybe this is an issue due to only selecting a single top 5*. If we chose 3 I’d bet a Cadbury crème egg they wouldn’t get near the top 10.
I came across an Abigail/Gargantos/Gor team in SHIELD Sim yesterday which I assumed would be a quick easy kill but it was actually quite an annoying fight. I won but it wasn't all that quick.

Thank you for this! I have also never understood the Omega Red love. He is just Russian Doc Ock! I just recently re-read his introduction story from X-Men #4-#6 and he isn't even interesting enough to be the only villain! They had to add Sabretooth and the Hand AND a mysterious character from Wolverine's past to make up for how incredibly bland Om R is as a character! Now that said - I could see how he could be a good MPQ character power-wise but he is Jubilee levels of boring. We could have Silver Samurai, Yuriko/Deathstrike or even Wendigo if we want an associated with Wolverine-ish villain! Sorry Omega Red fans...ducks and refuses to reveal where the Carbonadium Synthesizer is hidden
It's just because omega red was a tricky foe on capcom Xmen and his special was able to do huge damage. Actually I don't think all that love comes from comics.

Ah - Marvel v Capcom 2. Where is Marrow???!?!?!?
No, older than that. Xmen children of the atom, for arcade saloons 1994.

I had it on my Sega Saturn but also remember if fondly from Arcades! The Saturn really struggled to run that game due to it's pitiful memory! Also for some reason - Akuma!

My love for Omega Red was solely from the 90s X-Men show. He had the cool name and look, plus he was very different from the other villains, and was invincible.
Hey guys, you don't have to defend your Omega Red love!!! It's OK, I...hey what's going on buddy? Where did you get those tentacles from and is that some sort of death sparrghhhhh!
Now back on topic - this store has been very unkind to me delivering just a single Abigail cover when I wanted all Crystal, all the time or at least Garg. The vaults themselves though did at least have other useful stuff in.
A brutal 3/35 with 2 of the covers being for Garg who is the only one of the 4 I already have fully covered and didn't want to draw any covers for.
Just a soul crushing result given I've been on an awful streak lately (since Chasm entered latest, I've opened ~250 latest with a draw rate of well under 10% and never came close to covering him) and this just continued it.
