Nope, looked in mine the other day. Starting to think it may not turn up. Things seem to be very hit and miss this year. I was hoping the "Best of Avengers" one would show up in most places but it hasn't. That being said, there have been assortments and sets in the past that have came out here a few months later than the US, like the Captain America: The Winter Soldier Marvel Legends.

a) wait patiently and see if they turn up in the UK, or b) bite the bullet and order from Overseas. I tried being patient but as there are no guarantees we'll see them over here, went for Option b. The Panther/Agent 13 pack cost me about £25 so still 25% above what you'd expect to pay at retail, with S/H of approx. £12 on top, but at least I got one. Similar with the Falcon - these are going for around £42 - £45 plus shipping on EBay. I've ordered one from Robot Kingdom - approx £21 plus S/H. Time will tell if that was the right decision - but as a benchmark I seem to recall paying about £18 each (plus S/H) for the King Loki and King Laufey figures a few years back and thought at the time I'd overpaid (probably did) but never saw these at retail prices. |

That would make a great "your mum joke" punch line.

Saw at my local Sainsbury s they have made a space and labeled it MARVEL LEGENDS 3.75"-OUT OF STOCK...wasn't there on Tuesday, but it is today. Perhaps it is a good sign and we MAY see the future waves soon?

Yeah it's free.... I have taken an unintended hiatus for some reason. Never planned too, just didn't. Got Machine Man and Living Laser awhile back. Still need Rage and Gamora from that wave...although I really want a high quality nd custom of the "proper" Gamora.
I am planning on grabbing stuff when I see it, even though the China Bay is roughly he same cost even cheaper... it may be like 14$ but only 8£ sometimes. Since the whole "Brexit" vote though, the pound is near worthless. When it goes back up I will get more China stuff. I am a HUGE HUGE fan of the China Bay stuff though. Any word on when/where/if we can buy the H.A.C.K.S.from Boss Fight here??? I am in need of two for an art piece.....

i used chinabay heavily for army building but nowadays all my money shops local.
if its free then why are people not taking advantage of that and helping each other out???ive traded and bought with some of guys here but had to pay for shipping,naturally thats not an ish but it had me thinking that if i was in mainland UK id be getting stuff shipped on the regular.especially from london and liverpool those places seem to be on point all the time as far as 3:75" is concerned.speaking of which look what i got my hands on yesterday |

Going to Manchester Comic Con this weekend, hopefully might see some whilst I'm there. Maybe even ML wave 2 as they're not showing up in my area either. |

Cheers buddy!!! What area are you in? I have shit going on this weekend and can't make the Manchester con. There are several Northerners here (keep the faith) so you guys might be able to have a meet up? I need a MALE BLANK and a FEMALE BLANK an colour at all honestly as long as it is opaque and not transparent. No that the first week of summer has arrived and the kids are finally out of school, I am going to find some time to take outdoor army pics. Also, finished up our custom Groot. He is amazing. Still need a BAF piece to finish Arnim Zola. Looking forward to getting new picks back up!!

Still need a BAF piece to finish Arnim Zola. Looking forward to getting new picks back up!! Spoke to the guy from all the cool stuff today. They have a number of the figures but not all with limited stock, they sell them for £23 each plus postage. He has blanks, but didn't specify colours (you said you weren't bothered anyway). They're £19 each (seems steep to me). I'm going to wait until after the weekend in case I see any there before I commit. I can also grab a male and female if I see them while I'm there if you like? Anyway, if you want want to speak to this guy at all the cool stuff he's on 01425 650696. I've also seen a couple on eBay from a seller called 'In demand toys' for the same price. Hope this makes sense, feel like I've rambled... |

I cracked and bought Rage, Hydroman and Morbius from Forbidden Planet today. Hope we see them at mass retail soon because there was no sign of Gamora.

Been waiting myself.... probably go China Bay though.Be like £20-£25 all in for the three (maybe less if you catch a well timed auction)
I would MUCH rather buy them local and support Sainsbury or ASDA over China Bay to be honest. An independent store, toy shop or even a LCS (if I had one)... FP is alright but a MAJOR hassle them get to for me. I will hold off and get a Gamora in the comic packs....

They are more of an event than a marketplace. Bummer.
I got a SHANNA the She-Devil yesterday at ASDA for £1.50 because the card was wrecked and the bubble was flopping off. I realized when my son found her that we only got one waaaay back when and used her head for Madame Hydra. So, I guess now will have to add Kazaar to the long list. Still have yet to see the latest two waves here anywhere. They shelve space is empty bit the label is still on them. In fact, my Sainsburys just added a MARVEL LEGENDS 3.75" label a few weeks ago but it is still empty. Pretty sure they will pop up eventually, maybe next month when the kids go back to school.
