At present I have 45 or 46 MU figures, with at least 5 that I know of on their way for christmas bringing me up to 50. I've nearly got all my fav characters but I keep discovering new ones and getting them too... and 2012 looks like it's going to be good for MU...

Which figures do you have and how many? This is the sort of info I'm interested in.... and awesome pictures :P

Oh I can totally understand the part about forming teams. Initially I told myself to just stick to collecting the various Spider-men that have appeared in either the cartoons or comics. Then it started going 'downhill' when I bought the Spidey vs Goblin 2-pack and Bleeding Edge IM at clearance prices. At present I have:

- Spider-man vs Goblin 2 pack
- SDCC Spider-man
- Web Strike Spider-man (Ben Reilly)
- Hobgoblin (Spider-man line)
- Night Mission Spider-man (Black costume)
- Toxic Blast Venom (tongue variant)
- Super posable Spider-man
- Winter Soldier (Cap America line)
- Heroic Age Cap America (Bucky Cap)
- Spider-woman & IM Secret Wars 2 pack
- Bleeding Edge IM
- Silver Surfer
- Thor (modern)
- Iron Spider
- Mary Jane
- Spider-man 2099
- Gladiator
- Falcon
- Black Widow

It's kinda messy now probably 'cause I read quite a few comics (IM, Cap America, Daredevil, GotG, Spidey etc), so I'm gathering various key characters from the comics. Also, I have a few more figures coming in this weekend and planning to get more, argh.

It's addicting. I started collecting MU about a year ago now. I started with three figures. now I have over 90 with no intention of stopping. And because of the awesome people on this site, I have a place to share my growing collection and have people whom I can trade with as well.

Everyone on here is cool. I've been here for only about a month and I already feel welcome in this community

Tell me about it, iv never collected anything before MU, until one day I picked up a classic iron man from the first wave, and from then on I haventr stopped. That was wat 3 years ago? I'm also wat u would say a completionist cept for ridiculous repaints, which I don't get (ie, absorbing man, the things etc...) But I have almost every other MU figure, and their sub lines. I only get comic figures so no movie concepts for me, to date I'm missing a bulldozer, constrictor, mary jane, and a scarlet spider, considering I'm from canada I would say its a pretty dam good collection. Over 150 figures? DAM spent so much...I feel sorry for u, lol cuz now that ur hooked, ITS OVER, there will be no stopping, sigh....

My name is peter and I have a action figure addiction... Hi everyone. LOL

Only a month!? Wow, thought you'd been here forever!

I bought my first MU as the SDCC Sentinel, technically, but only first bought a 3.75" figure on August 31st. Almost 3 months later and I can't count how many I have. Though I only need 24 to complete my MU set, including variants but not exclusives, and I only need 7 to complete IM2, 6 to complete Thor, and 1 to complete Cap's movie line. My wife thinks I'm crazy.

I do the exact same thing, only with double+ the figures........

Surprisingly traffic is light this morning, I hit 3 wmarts and 2 targets and still didn't find a King Loki. No one bothered to restock MU/ Movie figures.

figures,I wont even bother to go look.

BigHanksCustoms · 11-25-2011, 07:49 AM

I hit two WMs last night, neither restocked MU, although one had F4, FF, GoG, 1st Avengers, and X-Force packs. Looking at the Avengers pack makes me want to make a classics MU Banner, Stark, and Donald Blake "alter ego" pack.

quinten182 · 11-25-2011, 07:58 AM

Found 2 Sifs, but no Loki or Laufey yet..

77kustoms · 11-25-2011, 03:25 PM

there is no Storm variant

BigHanksCustoms · 11-25-2011, 03:42 PM

Very hit or miss, but CVS pharmacies are doing buy 1 get 1 free on most toys, including MU. A CVS near me had Captain Britain (Yes!) and Team X Wolverine (ah well. for free, okay).

$10.99 per figure but getting a free one makes the price sweet.
