2012 wave 1 comic packs

burlington coat factory sells toys?????

This entire wave is a pass unless it looks much better in person. 1st appearance Wolvy was a bad figure, maybe, MAYBE better paint apps will help. Already have Mandarin and Silver Centurion from the Iron Man 2 line.

Hulk, sure looks great, but unless the paint apps are superior to the upcoming single carded version, and unless this one has a different head sculpt, I'm not that interested.

Already have 2 Collossus figures and 1 Juggernaut, would only want this if the helmet is removable.

Is the Juggs just helmet less then or does he come with it so one can just place back on as needed?

Hmmm...I was thinkning of getting just to go with a metallic blue look.
Or just getting it for a spare set of habds and head- and finding some Jedi in long robes (maybe the Emperor) to make a custom.
That would be worth the $15 to me..
Anyone wanna sell me a cheap Mandarin fig and spare me here?

That's the only reason to even pick up that comic pack. I doubt there will be anyone selling their Mandarins from it. You can always wait & see if a Chinese eBayer puts some up.

I like the Juggernaut/Colossus two pack because I want Cain without a helmet. They used the wrong issue though. It should have been X-Men 184 where Juggy fights without his helmet.

If they were going to do a different Mandarin they should have gone with his original costume because it was so funny it hurt.

We needed this in MU format:

Ice cream cone hands are underrated

SoundWave88 · 12-17-2011, 10:56 PM

Not too thrilled with this wave, but surprisingly interested in Juggy and Collosus, even though I just opened Juggernaut....and I agree, they should of used issue 184 or whatever where Logan and Peter go out drinking, and run into Cain.

Already have 1st app. Wolvies and a green Hulk, and a new single card comming out. I agree Wendigo would have been better. Would go with Guardian, upcomming Puck, and easy remold for Northstar and probably Aurora. They could probably do Shaman with Warpath/Thunderbird...or go leaner with Iron Fist.

Already have IM2 Silver Centurion and green Mandarin, though his paint apps on his face are fucked up...maybe a switch out, hehe.

KingLouie731 · 12-18-2011, 06:28 AM

Like others have said this is the issue that should have been in that Colossus/Juggernaut 2 pack

bmorr · 12-18-2011, 06:36 AM

Exactly. This will be the 3rd time Colossus is issued. I would've rather had a "powered down" Colossus.

We need Ant Man. And Wasp (just sayin)

HA!!!!!

Dude, when I met John Romita Jr. in the early 90's one of the first questions I asked as "Why did you make Nimrod pink?!?"
He laughed and told me that he designed Nimrod to be GREY but the colorist went with pink...and he never saw the issue untill months after it came out.

Same crazy colorist.

So dont blame Peter- it's the colorist with a pink fetish.

BRAGGING RIGHTS: I got a sketch from both JRJR and his dad of Tony Stark and Iron Man! It's framed on my wall.

My son would love that. He keeps taking his head off.

aquanet · 12-18-2011, 11:36 AM

I'm wondering if the new hulk mold is no longer in a single card, that would bite.

These are all an easy pass for me, I'm still on the fence for warlock/thanos and gambit/sinister ... Gambit is such a terrible figure!

Where did you find it at?

tlasjr · 12-18-2011, 05:23 PM

Newbury comics, despite the name its mainly movies and music.
They want 21.99

That would suck if the new Hulk doesn't get a single card release. And I agree that the CP Gambit kinda sucks since he seems to lack ankle and wrist articulation, but he's Gambit... and I need a Gambit since I missed out on the XMO one.

I also still need a Colossus though, so I will probably get the new CP one since it is cheaper than getting the Giant Size X-men boxset one.

The had two comic packs. The Cap Brit/Spidey and Thanos/AW. Given the size of Newbury I'd say they probably got in one or two cases and split them between the stores.

kills me because that means one of the other stores probably has my wonderman. The Saugus store had no MU
