Going from what I see, the "missiles" are sculpted into the shoulder piece and its far back in there from that angle. There are two divots on either side of his neck where the pods are and look how much lower the shoulder side is from that one w/pod up to the one side w/gun. I'm saying yes, yes I do think it does and it just got even cooler.


Look really close at both pods, they BOTH come up and I bet those are just ball joints like the 3 inch. I'm really glad you asked that because I totally overlooked it.

[nomad1632]

yeah they are sculpted but if you look at what they show on the right side there's a cap the covers what I'm guessing is the plug socket where you place that missile pod....I hope like you do that there's another one on the left side...and of course if there's a plug socket on the right side for the gun as well.

I attached some fairly good resolution pick that shows the missile cap in package(under the white exclusive sticker) and the figure loose.

[Mister Gone]

[nomad1632]

I hope there's another under the sticker too cause it looks like I'm halfway wrong. I'm still getting it regardless. lol Maybe the Marvel Select has both pods?

Well, considering the character, we're not exactly expecting Spider-Man levels of poseability.

Me, I want "repulsor blasts" hands, personally... not this one hand, one pointer crap.

well that's the best part of these figures they come with several sets of hands that include a repulsor blast set, its similar in that fact with the hot toys figures, its one one the reasons why I want them so bad, and also why Im not getting the diamond select figure cause from what Ive seen its hands are in this weird semi-closed fist look and doesn't appear to come with any other sets of hand poses.

Won't be too bad man, 1 week away! I have a feeling there will be plenty to go around.

[Archienj7]

When you keep seeing them here and there, yeah it is bad. lol

[rob_charb]

For those of you wondering about price, I paid about $20 US in store here in Taiwan, which is what we pay for a Deluxe Transformer. So that would be about $15 or so for you guys, I guess?

Also, with regards to War Machine, the gatling gun can slide across the back to be aimed over either shoulder, but the missile pod only connects to the right shoulder bit. The piece of plastic that makes the cover pops off.

[Archienj7]

Oh, rub it in why dontcha. j/k Are they pretty available there? hook a brotha up? lol n/k if you want to, I gots teh paypalz, just sayin. I want this thing so bad, all three really.

[rob_charb]

I'll see what I can do

TRU had about 3 or 4 of each of the 6" figures, while Toyland only had one each, so they're not super-saturated with stock. I mentioned in the feedback thread that the TRU had about 40 of the 3 3/4 compared to the 3-4 of the 6" ones, so that should give you and idea of the ratio of stock.

[deceptifocus]

they should be around $11USD i think, i work for WM and i aint seen shiat tho

Sorry for the dp, missed the multi.

They don't usually till they're just about out, ask a toy person. One who looks like they can read and think coherently and won't just lie By in the back I mean stock area/ bins.

[T16skyhopp]

nothin at my walmart this morning

[Archienj7]

Mine either :O Any day now, just keep trying. I'm going out to a couple more so maybe I'll luck up.

[Shin Densetsu]

Heard that these might be put out at midnight tonight. Ugh. Technically that's April 20th.

[T16skyhopp]

i think someones effing with us. i have no idea why walmart would set an internal date for an exclusive sub line. it doesnt make any sense. i saw target putting up the cardboard endcap for hall of armor figures today, and they have had set dates in the past. is it possible the date for targets HoA sets got misinterpreted as WM 6" figures somewhere down the rumor mill line?

[undercovernerd]

i just wint to walmart today like 3 of them and they only had the new acdc cd in stock which is 4/19 today and one of my local walmarts told me to check on tuesday 4/20 and it might b cuz they moved all the iron man 2 toys in the front of the store and now theres a empty space in the toy isle and im thinking its for the 6 inch series i hope to god im not saying it is but if it is ill buy a lot of warmachines to sell them to those who enjoy so ill sell it regular price but u pay shipping just hit me up and ill tell u bought to go later today and tomorrow so if someone finds one please help me and ill help u

Yeah I know right, God forbid they be a couple days off. It should be anytime though really, the movie comes out in a little over two weeks. I said the 17-18th cause thats what the toy guy said, maybe they got a memo to hold em back a bit, I don't work there. If you have ever worked there you know, the place is ten kinds of f'ed up. So if you meant I'm trying "eff" with you guys sorry, you're jumping to conclusions on that end. If it wasn't directed at me then thats even better, I'm jumping to conclusions. I took 17-18th to be anywhere around that day and all till the following weekend's timeframe but I'm reading the same info on other boards so someone's got the right info out there. I'm not trying to get anyones hopes up for spite, I want it more than anyone.

I did get the Borders exclusive about two hours ago for 14$, it's not the WM one but it'll do till I get it.

[T16skyhopp]

I heard it from a few different places and wasn't directing it at you. It just seemed odd because as far as i know walmart has never set and internal date. they just put stuff out as it comes in (not counting manufacturer set street dates). Target regularly resets end caps with exclusives at set dates. So when I was at target after walmart fail and saw them setting up the hall of armor, I thought maybe information got misinterpreted somewhere along the line. Also, the fact that non showed up on ebay other than asian or CA releases. Even if walmart was holding them back, even with a computer lockout, theres no way every walmart followed it perfectly. Those places are so poorly run, and I'm sure theres more than a few managers who work ebay. It just seems odd to me overall. I didn't seriously mean someone here or elsewhere was spreading rumors.
