I'm sure you will, just seeing/buying those 2 Falcons is good news for your area =D

Shawn Woodbeck · 07-07-2011, 08:16 PM

Is there anyone out there that can get me a clear strange? I'll pay and I have paypal. PPPPPLLLLLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Optimus Vader · 07-07-2011, 08:20 PM

If I start seeing chunks of Visions I'll buy them all and sell them to you guys for cost + shipping + $1. So far I've personally only seen Spider and Falcon.

Yeah, for as plain of a figure as SS is, he really does have some character. The red and blue on him is very bright and comic-like. He has good legs too (thigh swivel). Falcon's head articulation isn't the best. He's cool figure because he's so unique with the wings and falcon accessory, but definitely not the most articulated figure.

Neither of these figures have the rocker ankle joints.

Tiberius · 07-07-2011, 09:26 PM

That's a bummer

. I was hopping they would of given him enough articulation to look completely up.

That'd be great if I had a target in my area lol. I have a Zellers which is going to become a Target sometime next year. But until then I buy what I can, MU hasn't come by much in the form of new stuff. Few months back, my local zellers got those target 2 packs in, my walmart has gotten some of the older comics 2 packs, and there was the WWH wave that came and went.. I missed out on a few figures.. but for the most part when new stuff comes I find myself being the one snagged the last new figure on the peg, as apposed to being given the option of picking and choosing what I want. Luckily my local Walmart finally got Captain America figures in so I can start getting that collection going. But nothing new in the lines of Thor or IM2.

Tiberius · 07-07-2011, 11:10 PM

It's becoming hard to stay with the collecting of MU figures these days. I have drifted off to the likes of Star Wars and Transformers. I am still pissed that Mattel can't figure out how to make a 3 3/4 inch figure. I'm sure my MU brokenheartedness..ness will be fine once I get my god damn mail! Still on the fence about getting a Setinel Prime... I think I can live happy with just having a red skull though lol

Spacemafia · 07-07-2011, 11:12 PM

Falcon Uses the Captain Marvel Mold with new Arms.....his (On mine) right arm comes off too easy.

SS uses the Black Spidey Mold with new Thigh Swivel cut legs that look like the old legs with.......Thigh Swivel.

I just finally got 1 of my packages today which was shipped on June 3rd! and frankily would of been here weeks ago had that damn mail strike never had happened. I got stuff on it way and awaiting payment to be shipped soon,

Optimus Vader · 07-08-2011, 03:36 AM

My Falcon is tighter than a virgin. Spidey has one loose hip, but nothing out of the ordinary in terms of MU.

Optimus Vader · 07-08-2011, 02:30 PM

I found this guy today..

If anyone found an extra Dr. Strange (in color) and needs one of these two (or a Cable), pm me.

Tiberius · 07-08-2011, 02:35 PM

Wish I lived in Philly. I have no problem cheering for the Flyers if it means action figures! lol

Spacemafia · 07-08-2011, 03:07 PM

I saw Skar and Passed.....tried to think of some way to kit bash him and WW Hulk into a better Hulk figure, but couldnt....

Tiberius · 07-08-2011, 03:26 PM

He is one of those figures where if I didn't have WWH I wouldn't get, but I do have WWH, so I want lol

Symbiote · 07-08-2011, 03:26 PM

Man. I haven't seen crap out here. Sooo jealous.

Optimus Vader · 07-08-2011, 03:29 PM

Skaar is pretty cool. I was originally going to pass on him, but what can I say? I like action figures.

This is my Marvel haul today..

Hydra goons (Deluxe-dark) are plentiful at Targets for $10, and Walmarts, but they're $13 there. Bought both Skaars on the pegs at one Target, left a Scarlet Spider, & three Dooms. Stopped at a K-Mart on my way home from Target hopping and they're doing their 50% off all clearance items, so in the midst of all of the Last Airbender and some sort of ninja dragon crap I found a Secret Wars Comic Pack and an IM2 Crimson Dynamo. I don't need either, but I couldn't pass on the price ($8.75 total after taxes), so they came home with me.

I got more stuff today, this is the Marvel portion of it though. My full haul is in the "look what I got thread." I got a little out of hand today.

Tiberius · 07-08-2011, 03:32 PM

Crimson Dynamo is so under-rated imo. Love the figure! Good haul sir!

Exactly.

I also didn't realize there where stands that said "son of hulk" which is cool t me for some reason

Tiberius · 07-08-2011, 03:33 PM

Was it 50/50 for the stands?

Both that I got are the "son of hulk" versions. I'm not sure if one is rarer than the other or what.

Tiberius · 07-08-2011, 03:39 PM

Ah ok. Not really a big deal for me personally. Son of Hulk or Skaar works for me lol

behindthemask · 07-08-2011, 03:55 PM

I'll be lucky to find 1 on a peg, name plate isn't going to factor in me getting it or not lol,just maybe in picking up both if they're there. I'm not gonna be like son of hulk groose lol fuck that haha. That crimson dynamo figure is pretty good, just got my 6'' version yesterday and he is awesome, the odd paint issue but nothing that can't be touched up. The comic 2 pack isn't 2 bad either, unlike a lot of ppl I rather like that Ultron that comes with it, reed richards is a little different, luckily they improved him in the new F4 box set.
I still can't wait to get my hands on a Cable, Cyclops, apocalypse etc...
