Not just Tumblr. Censored/targeted words are always a mess because the combinations of letters they highlight are never exclusively used in THAT word.

A friend of mine sometimes has their preferred username, which includes the word “Trumpet,” censored, because of the first five letters of that word.

There is absolutely no reason or benefit for assuming an unreleased video game will be bad. Or movie. Or TV show. Or any form of entertainment media.

All we can do is assess from marketing materials/previews if it sounds like something we would enjoy interacting with, and decide upon interaction.

I thought they did too, actually. Maybe they did and then changed it, like how Monty Brown went from “Marquis Cor Von” to “Marcus Cor Von” after a couple weeks.

Wave 2 had Rogue in an X-Men uniform that never appeared in the film. The figure was actually a repaint of the Secret Weapon Force Rogue, which was based on that 1997 storyline where some X-Men wore Shi'Ar space outfits designed by Joe Madureira, with the Anna Paquin head from the wave 1 Rogue.

This line had a couple other weird choices. Like, the first releases of Jean Grey and Storm had insane cleavage. For the 2nd releases, some black paint was added to the figures' chests to act as brassieres, and Jean was given a new head with her hair in a ponytail.

Also: that Senator Kelly. Ew.

They're burying her. Four-letter names get over in WWE. That's why it wasn't shortened to "Vega."

Examples:
Bret
Owen
Rock
SCSA
Cena
Edge
Mick
Kurt
Show
Kane
Droz
Test
Gunn
Dogg
X-Pac
D'Von
Matt
Jeff
Lita
Seth
Dean
Cody
Punk
