Then one day, when looking for an awesome 25th anniversary Snake Eyes with knives across his chest, I came across an old guy with a cart full of Hot Wheels to resell later on. The sightings forums usually help a lot too.

What's the issue with quality in this line? The Marvel Universe line seems so flimsy and a few of them just plain fall apart. In comparison to the X-men Origins Wolverine, the Spiderman 3.75's and GI Joes lines these just don't hold up to the age range they're supposed to. I collect as well as buy for my 4 year old and would like to see an improvement in quality. Any chance?
Case in point, the Doctor Doom figure which was amazing in sculpt and detail but is unplayable with. My son keeps losing its head and he can't hold his gun and the joints are flimsy. The models and sculpts are great though, so keep at it with those. The hips tend to be stuck on certain figures, that's the biggest culprit so far. Here are my questions: 1) Does the release of "New" Captain America in the Gigantic Battles sets prevent the release of a mass market version of New Captain America, perhaps with a different mold? 2) Is the 6" Exclusive Movie Series from Iron Man 2 limited to just movie designs?

Lets be honest, some of the questions people ask are pretty blatant and Hasbro can't answer them without screwing themselves. We get angry because they are mysterious. If we ask good questions we get good answers |

Instead of releasing peg warmers in future cases (Green Goblin, Spiderman, Wolverine) could you please release harder to get figures....if you need an example of any peg warmer just head to target and Walmart....

on that subject of IM2 toys: why do you keep using that ugly red paint instead of using the paints they used in the MU iron man armors? Last edited by eisen; 04-08-2010 at 06:00 PM.. |

Why are the movie toys (particularly the 6"s) so much cheaper built and painted than the Marvel Legends figures which cost the same amount of money?

I have, it took me half on hour on separate occasions to find any given armor I wanted without bad paint apps. In my upcoming review you'll see; my Mark V suitcase armor looks like he's CRYING.

Question for next round:
1. Why was the carded deco on Iron Patriot chosen versus the more comic-accurate version we were shown at Toy Fair? Was the TF version the "fixed" version? Will there be a running change to correct it? |

When we got the pictures of the Walmart exclusive Iron Man figures, The Mark V armor was there. So far it's not in stores. Was the figure pushed back to a later wave or is it all together gone?

I think it was always meant for a later wave man, it wasn't shown in the Toy Fair presentation, and the prototype showed up online later than the Mark VI and War Machine.

But when the released the official in box pictures and everything of the Mark VI and War Machine, there was also the Mark V. The prototype showed up around the same time also. It's just that I, as well as some other people around the internet were under the impression we were getting all 3.

I'd really like to know why we don't see more cross pollination from other Hasbro lines, e.g. why does every MU (save Bucky) with a machine gun get the same assault rifle when there has got to be plenty of GIJoe machine guns to choose from that could add differentiation and excitement to the line.

That aside, I totally agree |

I've never met or had contact with a bad rep from Hasbro, but when they lay out a bunch of rules and then don't answer half the questions anyway, I feel a little manipulated. If they want communication, they should open the lines of communication, not put on a dog and pony show and expect us to be entertained. |

The Mark V's being found in TRU in Taiwan arrived later than the Mark VI and War Machine. Whereas the 6" figures were in Taiwan last month, the Mark V only showed up there in stores last week.

1. The Iron Man 2 helmet has blue lights in it. The IM2 repulsor glove has blue lights in it. Why does the clip-on, chest, arc reactor have yellow lights instead of blue?
2. Where are the Iron Man 2 Drone figures? 3. Is the Iron Man 2 Comic Series limited to armored characters/villains? Ie would a non-armored character like Whiplash be possible for that series? 4. Is there a 5th figure in the 3rd wave of the Iron Man 2 Comic Series? We were shown 4 at Toy Fair, but the 1st two waves had 5 figures each. Might there be one more un-announced character in that wave? 5. What is the likelihood of a new, buck, female body for MU? Other than Jean Grey, the ladies of MU are still lacking swivel biceps. For nimble characters like Black Widow, this is unforgiveable. 6. Why wasn't the Iron Man 2 helmet given a voice changer instead of Jarvis? This is the first question everyone asks, when I show it to them. "Does it change your voice?" |
