I got them in the Nerd Block subscription service for the month of March. I think they may have been exclusive to the subscription. You can always hunt for them on ebay though.

Director Fury and company arrived in the mail today from TRU. The package arrived in good condition, but very unsecured, as there was no tape sealing the bottom of the shipping box. There was literally nothing stopping someone from pulling open the bottom flaps and swiping the figures inside.

Awesome set, with really crisp and clean paint apps. Might turn the Fury into the Blade figure we missed out on though, but it's a really good likeness, so I might end up just keeping it intact. Hasbro has been really hitting it out of the park as of late. Well worth it!

Got Cracked Tusk and Renegade in the mail today. Passed on Scavage.

They're both great additions for the collection. Renegade's new weapons and paint scheme are cool and Cracked Tusk also has great paint and is my first predator to have the combi stick. Cracked Tusk also includes a smart-disc but it's pointless as he can't really hold it properly and one can be seen in the sculpting on his right leg armor.

They went for around $70 when they were first released. They must have sat around the Amazon warehouse taking up a lot of space so the price was cut to $34.99 during Christmas 2013 and that was when I got one. Now they go for well over $100 on through the Amazon marketplace.

My Spidey wave pre-order came in from Amazon today. Also snagged Scarlet Witch, Hawkeye, Machine Man and Captain Marvel loose and on the cheap to add to the fodder bin.

renegade predator looks awesome. i love that green color they used.

i really wish they'd use some of the other predators from the predators movie. i know they don't quite fit in with the theme, but they're still cool molds.

It is a lot nicer of a green than early images made it out to be. So far they have used all 3 predator movie bodies for the Kenner style figures: Jungle Hunter, City Hunter, and super-pred. They will have new options with the AVP bodies soon, as they've implied that the Clan Leader figure may be on one of those bodies.

I am in love with that S.H.I.E.L.D. 6" set!!! I don't know if it will be available here in the UK but I would buy it in a second if i saw it. Maybe Hasbro will give us a 3.75" Coulson soon?

Just wanted to share my Spider-Gwen custom.

Some of the new Thanos BAF series figures have now started showing up in my area. I was quite surprised to see these showed up on retail store shelves so quickly here.

Here’s what I got from the wave earlier today:

Batroc

Iron Man Mark 43

Hulk

Captain America

Unfortunately, there was no sign of Spider-Woman or Hellcat.

Defzombie · 03-27-2015, 01:55 PM

Got this at a local collectible show for $20

DarthGzus33 · 03-27-2015, 08:00 PM

This is the only set I was interested in grabbing from the Star Wars Digital Commemorative Series. Now, if I ever find the others on clearance LOL...

POTF2 Luke with super long lightsaber

And it is WrestleMania weekend folks...I get one new WWE figure each year to honor the event! This year...The Immortal Hulk Hogan!!!

You should have just popped for the ultra edition the one in the gold package on the hulk hogan

Dr Kain · 03-27-2015, 09:42 PM

Well I picked this up today:

Not sure why since that was $50 for a toy I just want to paint.

Agent Smith and Jules are pretty cool though, but not sure if I'm going to keep them or not. It is odd though, because the back of the box shows Fury with two hands that are able to hold guns, but he didn't come with any extra hands as only one of them can hold a gun.

I haven't found that awesome classic Spider-Man yet though.

i should've clarified.. i meant using the masks as well. but i know that wouldn't quite fit in with what they're doing.

i can't get over how awesome that green looks. i wish i had the ability to own all of the neca predators.. i bet they look awesome all displayed together.

oh joy, a movie line with a bunch of comic figure thrown in. i wish they were two separate lines.

because they're not, i'm going to end up missing out on ultron, unless i buy a bunch of figures i don't quite care for.

and what'll be more annoying is if they don't even bother releasing a mark 45 armor.

i'm not saying they shouldn't release the comic book only figures because i know plenty of people want them.. but, for those of us who are interested in only collecting the figures from age of ultron, it's a bit lame that they're doing it this way.

I kinda wish they'd do some re-releases of the more popular predators again since they are very hard to come by which makes it very difficult for some people to jump into the line and get the ones they want. I started into the Predator line too late to get a lot of them, but I do have every Kenner homage except for Scavage (it's a choice not a matter of not finding it or whatever) and they do have a really nice charm when they're all together.

Welcome to the Predator party! That there is one of the older and less articulated ones too, so it only goes up from there. I don't know how keen you are on Kenner toys, but series 13 is a pretty good jumping in point if you do like the colorful and garish homages to the toys of yesteryear.

Sorry. I hit every Target I could this week and they had all been scooped up. Guess others thought it was a good deal too.
