I appreciate option to mix MU figures with older figures and vehicles. In other words - my yesterday haul.

Nice! I've been debating getting a Blackbird. but I would try to hollow it out and add some more chairs

That Blackbird is sweet!

Reaver Strike · 11-03-2011, 06:36 AM

Which Blackbird is that? I have the one from the '90's animated series.

kostej · 11-03-2011, 07:11 AM

That is movie X-Jet - here is quite a helpful (not mine) youtube review:

Yeah, it is still wicked awesome.

I'm going to go search it on ebay and fantasize about it.

Marvel Universe Action Figures Wave 15 Revision 1 - HASBRO - Marvel - Action Figures at Entertainment Earth

Wait, I didn't know they were doing a revision case with modern Ms. Marvel too! I NEED to keep an eye out for her!

And is that other revision case gonna actually include Baby Hope Cable, or just EE using stock photos? It would be awesome if they reversed the running change.

I wouldn't put money on Baby Hope making any revision appearances. I could be wrong, but I think that was just the first shipments of Cable. Seems to be the case with many figures they make "variants" of. Same with Astral Strange.

yep,seems like every wave they seem to find a way to make something a variation.

Exodus · 11-03-2011, 09:56 AM

Man can't believe they're rereleasing modern vs of Ms. Marvel. I had to get her off of evilbay for 22 bucks ugh

Optimus Vader · 11-03-2011, 10:04 AM

I think if they haven't been reissued already, they all will be at some point. So everyone with a MOC Blade,.. I'd advise you to cash in while you can!

I sure hope Blade gets re-released, I got a perfect MOC one from a guy on Hisstank a few days ago, got it in the mail and busted it open..and promptly lost his godamn gun.

And it sucks even worse because I can't get any of the hundreds of spare GI joe guns I have to fit in his giant gorilla mitts..

Well, Cable is a different scenario. Astral Strange is a true variant, along with metal skin Absorbing Man, Imperius Rex stand Sub Mariner... etc. Those variants being shipped in bulk at the beginning seems to be a bad case of distribution. Cable, on the other hand is a "running change" where they purposely stopped producing him with Hope.

I was just hoping that maybe Hasbro heard the complaints and decided to reissue him with Hope in a revision case. But, it's probably just Entertainment Earth using stock photos.

Figures,.. he actually has a unique gun too. Couldn't have been Bullseye's!

They also list them further down the page:

Quote:

This case includes 12 action figures (subject to change):
1x Captain Marvel
1x Doc Sampson
1x WW Hulk
1x Spider-Woman
1x Cable w/ Baby
1x Scarlet Spider-Man
1x Ultron
1x X-23
1x Steve Rogers
1x Black Spider-Man
1x Bullseye
1x Modern Thor
(subject to change)

Subject to change is on there, twice, but it's food for thought. I need a version with Hope so I for one will be on the hunt.

Nice! I've seen Skaar a bunch when I was only hunting X-Men, now I can't find him anywhere.

Damn, I may have to pay the obscene $20 for this at the specialty shop. At least I'll save on shipping...

RenegadeOne · 11-03-2011, 11:04 AM

^If he's like the past couple variants, I wouldn't recommend paying that right now. Just wait for the next shipment.

Same here man.

Exodus · 11-03-2011, 11:21 AM

Cool, almost picked up a Captain Marvel on evilbay, but now I can wait for the rerelease neat. Just in time for xmas. Most likely why they're shipping so many out.

This sculpt is better than the toxic blast version but the blacker color of the toxic blast figure is better. The SS venom is too light for me.

MrCoffeeAddict · 11-03-2011, 02:00 PM

Decided to go to Wal Mart today for the hell of it because it was on the way home and lo and behold:

This was from a Wal Mart near me that decided to stop selling MU for some reason for a few months. So maybe figure hunting is partly psychological...if you go in not expecting not find anything you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Also gonna be customizing the Tony Stark to have hair and a goatee.

Iron Man · 11-03-2011, 02:05 PM

Some IM Movie love. (Mainly cause I scored that mustang at a goodwill today for a buck.)
