We've passed on 5 of your burning Marvel Comics questions! So check out the latest scoop we've got for you this all-new, all-different monthly Q&A session with Hasbro.

Cool Toy Review: Are there any female figures (Storm, Emma Frost) in the pipeline for the animated Wolverine and the X-Men line?

Hasbro: Watch for an announcement over the next couple of weeks on Wave 3 of Wolverine & the X-Men!

Cool Toy Review: Are there plans to produce more Marvel movie figures at the 3 3/4" scale? I have recently purchased the movie versions of Logan, Wolverine, Sabretooth, and Deadpool, and I would love to get more figures from either the Wolverine Origins movie or from other Marvel movie franchises.

Hasbro: The Wolverine movie figures are the only 3.75" movie figures planned for 2009.

Cool Toy Review: If you ever decide to make a repainted version of Punisher for Marvel Universe, could you possibly do it just like the variant in series 4 of Marvel Legends? The camo version to be specific. I want the face paint and all! That is one awesome Punisher!

Hasbro: We like that one too - it's not in the lineup for 2009 but it's a definite possibility down the road.

Cool Toy Review: Will we see the Marvel Legends Nemesis wave distributed in the US? So far all I've seen is Canadian distribution.

Hasbro: These will be coming to the states and they will in fact be a Wal-Mart exclusive when they are released. Essentially, it comes down to WM determining the right time for them to merchandise this wave.

Cool Toy Review: Any chance we'll see the following in the Marvel Legends line? Mephisto, Thanos, the Beyonder, Drex the Destroyer (with Pip the Troll), Hate Monger, Ulik the Troll, the Slug, Smythe, Silvermane, the Grandmaster, Stryfe?

Hasbro: Awesome list of characters, and all of these would fill some important holes. We can tell you that Hate Monger will probably not make the cut anytime soon.
