Agreed! Although I actually prefer the single carded MU's vs the 2 packs. They just look cooler for some reason =)

Kayo83 · 10-24-2011, 04:32 PM

Yea it seem like they put more effort in to the single carded figures then the double pack. I cant say all of them but the like SW Captain America and Klaw i got, The Cap was a solid figure but I cant say the same for Klaw, when I first took him out the his damn leg was doing his own thing still chillin in the package lol

We are selling this as an opener toy to be played with and added to a set. Hope you are alright with this."
I personally keep them boxed/carded up, so if this comes with the card bent and what not...any suggestions or thoughts if it does?

And dang should have picked them up when I saw them at Target a month ago:P Same goes for Havok, Juggernaut, Winter Soldier and Black Widow instead of chasing them on Ebay:P!!!$$$

How did they describe the item in the listing? If they said brand new then you can definitely open a dispute and get your money back. It's ridiculous for them to tell you this after they have already mailed it. That's just really annoying and inconsiderate. I hope it arrives fine.

That's why I'm not sure to keep the deadpool and taskmaster or to sell it on ebay, or even return it. Although they do look cool...It's just dumb when they put repeat themselves from a 2 pack to a single carded MU figure or vice versa i.e. Colossus and Juggernaut. Especially when it's not much of a change in color and mold.

They put this as the condition. "New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item (including handmade items). See the seller's listing for full details."

Further details..."FOR SALE IS ONE NEW MARVEL UNIVERSE SERIES 2 ** COLOSSUS # 13 ** INCLUDES CLASSIFIED FILE WITH SECRET CODE! . FROM A NON SMOKING HOME, SEE PICTURE . QUESTIONS PLEASE EMAIL US . FREE S&H USA MAILED IN A LARGE BUBBLE ENVELOPE , INTERNATIONAL WOULD BE $4.85 MAILED IN A LARGE BUBBLE ENVELOPE"

Yes agreed hopefully it does as well, but sent with no tracking #. Even if it's free shipping still=P Thanks for the advice. The thought did cross my mind.

It says it will be mailed in a envelope...

stuff like this is why i only buy from you guys and not ebay. at least your honest about it.

solidwii · 10-24-2011, 05:26 PM

I tried a headswap with Sentry and Namor to make KaZar.

I don't paint so I just did some photoshop coloring. Still needs boots and loin cloth.

D00MTR0N · 10-24-2011, 05:27 PM

very cool idea wii.

True I don't like when they do those money moves. Im not sure but isn't Colossus in like 3 sets already. Single, Double and that Giant Size set. Man I have a long way to go hahah but I think ill stick to characters I like for now

yeah plus any villain that does not wear a full facemask is a dolt imo,seriously,how much cooler would he be if he had a full mask on versus that half mask "I look like I belong on where the wild things are " type mask he wears.

A Villain either needs a full mask [Doom] or a badass helmet [Magneto].

agreed 100%

BigHanksCustoms · 10-24-2011, 06:03 PM

Yeah, but Rhino is pretty much a dolt and a lackey. i remember he wrote a letter to Spiderman in an issue back in the 90's and all the words were mis-spelled, and letters were backwards, lol.

Definitely not a criminal mastermind.

Good figure for display, and necessary for filling Spidey's rogues gallery.

just picked up Lizard yesterday.

Fortune · 10-24-2011, 06:21 PM

I think the partial mask is very good look for Rhino. I also love his big dumb look on the 6in ones face. Lets face it rhino is a dumb dude

He is hired muscle, he even knows this. I remember when in House of M he was Peter Parkers bodyguard, so awsome.

That's the sole reason I wont get the two pack. I guess I could get some flesh tone paint and make them less...supple. Pain in the ass just for one figure though

Looks great. Very clean. Honestly there's some star wars figures that have cloth capes and such. Just cut two triangle shapes, frill the edges and glue the two pieces together. It would make a great loin cloth
