I don't think Rogue is going to be released as a special Walgreen's exclusive for a wave of figures that are already exclusive to TRU. It doesn't really make sense.

Have we seen any carded samples of Lyra, Blade, Moonstar, aoa Jean, white phoenix, or any of the other unreleased figures NOT currently slated for another wave? If not that could mean something for Rogue, which is the most exciting part of this for me. After the success of the TRU Exclusive X Men I could see them doing another wave of X Men for a wide release.

Been spending too much money on figures lately, so I dipped into my fodder bin and threw together my own Ms. Marvel. Saves money and the hassle of hunting Target for a 3-pack I only want one figure from! =)

Looks like a WWE Diva with Black Cat's head/Brie Bella's hair (?). Looks good. I always liked Mattel's diva figures, I just can't stand 99 percent of the Divas these days so I got out a while ago.

Agent Venom's success is yet to be seen. Being the case packout is all AV, and if every Walgreens is getting an entire case (which they seem to be), soon enough Agent Venom will be the most worthless, peg-warming ML toy ever produced. There is no way they're moving 64000 of those things. Here's hoping they didn't make that many of him...

My Walgreens had 8 Agent Venom figures a week ago. Yesterday, they were all gone. I don't think he'll be peg warming.

Exactly! And, if you consider that they're only in the US, there are many collectors around the globe...and don't forget our customiser friends!

Hopefully you're right. But with 400+ on eBay right now, only selling for cost +shipping, I think a lot of collectors and more so- scalpers will be returning all the extra they bought. I'm optimistic though.
With that said- I have 2 Agent Venoms left. Cost plus shipping to anywhere in the world. PM me. My view of scalping figures on ebay or wherever remains the same, however as Hasbro remakes are better 9 out of 10 times, only a few Toybiz figs hold up. Either its a slow point in the year or reselling just isn't as profitable as it once was (good for us). Whatever the reason, there is a lot to be had on the boards here and other sites, where the collector isn't about making money, we're about the passion for our hobby. Ebay is fine for getting hard to finds if you don't mind paying more and/ or hidden shipping costs, by that I mean $20 US to ship a loose figure (puhleeze). Anyhoo, I'm always grateful for the folks here and elsewhere that will trade for what they want and those who aren't asking an arm or leg for something. Patience is the key friends, wait it out and you'll find it! *Tuesday is tangent day! Lol

Haha I need to seriously stop by Walgreens for Agent Venom, I keep getting lazy and drive by them, even though they're actually more of those then Targets/TRU combined in my area.

I just bought the X-Men box set off of TRU online for $40. it says it's listed at $59. But when you put it in your basket it goes down to $40. And free shipping at $50. I added the Cyclops w/Jubilee BAF that I needed so $61 for all 6 figures and the arm I needed to complete her feels like a steal these days.

Is anyone else having a problem with the new lower quality plastic? It used to be easy to heat up a figure with an arm or leg that wasnt straight, bend it the way you want, and then cool it. Now that the elbow and knee joints are already so gummy they dont respond as well to the heating and cooling method.

I just recently bought the x-men 5 figure set for 40 bucks but I see with the deal if I get xmen set, wolverine and cyclops it's 75 bucks with tax only. So I can just return the set i got last week which means I get Wolverine and Cyclops for 15 bucks each.
