Marvel Universe Taskmaster, Deadpool and Silver Samurai

Sweet! Just reading Siege at the moment so Taskmaster is a must-buy now, not that these packs aren't already on my radar.
I'm assuming these will start popping up for pre-orders soon? I'm sure I saw one site taking orders already.

Silver Samurai looks gorgeous, I love how he looks like he's got the new feet articulation.
Taskmaster looks alright... as does Deadpool. I'm sure they'll impress me more in person.

So, these are out in China already? Does this mean that we can expect these anytime soon?

DrewBlank · 03-15-2011, 06:13 AM

Does Taskmaster really come with Han Solo's blaster?

nakobass · 03-15-2011, 07:49 AM

Have to get Deadpool to go with MU Cable, I'll sell Taskmaster on Ebay. I like the UDON costume better.

Cannot wait for these to come stateside.

Tarquinius · 03-15-2011, 07:59 AM

Smalljoes.com has pegged their arrivial for approx. 3/15/11 (aka today ha).

I dunno how reputable that site is but I imagine between this and that site it should be coming soon!!

Man that deadpool is AWESOME!! Hes got a shooting pinky finger!!hahaha!!! Il definately be picking that pack.....taskmaster is heading to the trading pool tho!!

Shin Densetsu · 03-15-2011, 09:04 AM

I was excited because we were getting a new Silver Samurai figure, had no idea he could store his swords AND had all that new articulation that I like! WIN! Patch looks like he might have the MU-style thigh swivels too. Crossing my fingers.

Now Deadpool...okay for a retool, wanted a true MU style body. Taskmaster looks great!

It's been a while since I've seen him in books, can anyone post images comparing the classic with Udon costume?

No, Deadpool comes with a Mauser C-96. Which is the real weapon that was doctored into Han's Blaster. All the guns in the old trilogy are real weapons with sci-fi bits welded on, and the magazines removed.

I just gotta admit here, Task Master has a lot going for him.

He might have the single most accessories in the MU line that I can think of (or at least within the likes of Hand Ninja, Punisher etc). But also look at the engineering behind the figure. He has a holster for his pistol, a scabbord for his sword and that quiver behind his cape. He has A LOT of stuff put into him.

I think Hasbro did him justice.

Is deadpool a new mold or a retool of the woverine origins figure? I've got both of those releases and they are very good. Taskmaster looks really great. Definitely picking this pack up.

Same mold, new deco.

Some new web gear parts and the neck may now have a hinge.

It's good to see Hasbro committing to a better variety of accessories, even though it is pretty clear Taskmaster stole Han Solo's blaster.

snake5289 · 03-15-2011, 05:28 PM

I hope Deadpool can actually hold his swords this time.

Actually, Han Solo stole the Red Skull's Mauser.

It's almost like it is in the comics, I know...

CyberScream95 · 03-17-2011, 07:51 PM

I don't usually buy the 2 packs, but the DP/TM is a must for me.
