Sweet finds! The look of that Cap Brit looks so cool. Just sadly he doesn't really have a...home I guess you could call it on my shelf. I try to collect teams or partnerships, or something along those lines.

I picked p the Power Man/Iron Fist the other day- they both kick ass.
This Power Man is SO.MUCH. BIGGER. than that crappy Cage figure we got several waves ago!

Saw the Capt Britan pack as well and while the paint apps were superb, I passed.

RenegadeOne · 10-04-2011, 10:17 PM

I also like to display characters with evolutions of their costumes, so you could have this Cap Brit with the other "Excalibur" version... and Power Man with the modern Luke Cage.

Clasic Power Man looks like a superhero- moern Cage looks like a mugger.
you could have classic Power Man beating the hell out of Cage FTW!

Nice score man! I remember When Hawkeye CP use to be a peg warmer for me. Then all of a sudden he just disappeared.

Ok so I didn't think I would enjoy the Warriors 3, but HOLY SHIT, THEY ARE AWSOME! Next on the list is Heimdall. Hell, this line SUCKED till I got these guys. Talk about turning the tables, jeeezus. I'll post some pictures soon.

Tiberius · 10-05-2011, 12:01 AM

Thought id post some compatable figures for the marvel 3.75" line

Tiberius · 10-05-2011, 01:57 AM

Well...that just tells you that my Iron Monger sucks, and Destroyer needs to be BIGGER.

awwww lol yeah i agree they should have made a 6 inch Destroyer not this 8" one they have, I think 8" is to tall for 3.75" compatibility

Boba Fettuccini · 10-05-2011, 02:16 AM

I got that Iron Monger on the TRU website last summer for $3. It's what got me into collecting Marvel.

vampireheart · 10-05-2011, 02:31 AM

nice $3 bucks aint bad i picked it up on clearence for $4.99 around that same time

NoodleChow · 10-05-2011, 02:39 AM

something i always wondered is if the head on that iron monger is articulated at all. seems like it isn't and is a single piece to accommodate the jeff bridges figure even though i think the head can be pushed into his chest.

Boba Fettuccini · 10-05-2011, 02:42 AM

Its not articulated so that the whole panel can open up. An articulated head on a flat fold-out panel would be a bit steep... would have just driven upthe price. WOuld rather have that than the barely-Bridges body though.

Optimus Vader · 10-05-2011, 06:13 AM

I joined the $5 Mandarin Club yesterday. Mandy was the only Ironman figure in Ross' pig-pen of a toy section.

stjuggernaut · 10-05-2011, 06:17 AM

wow nice display!

btw, does anybody know where i can find a place that has pics and info on every marvel universe figure?? kind like the old marvel legends.net but for MU???

i want every figure available to my eyes in one place!

EDIT: ok just found the new marvel legends.net. just looking through it.

quinten182 · 10-05-2011, 06:27 AM

Ooh I have that Monger, I like it. I should take a pic of my new 6 inch Loki battling it out.. but he's a tad big
