Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

yea i understand, but what i guess i mean is that, since i could only get one fig today, lets say next time theres 2 or 3 i like, but if maybe i can only get one, i would want to get the one i have the least chance of seeing again you know? thats why i put "rare" in quotations because im not to worried about that, i just dont want to pick a figure that i'll probably be able to get next time, over one that i'll regret missing out on.

I track people down with a sharp knife, only to claim the ultimate prize...hair and the skin beneath.

Does that make me a scalper?

That's how I started. Colossus was one of my first MU figures and still remains a favorite. He's a great figure

Anyone think there will be any store-exclusive 3.75" Avengers figures? Captain America had the two 2-packs and concept pack at Target.

I've been there, lately I just buy them, and if for some reason I don't like the figure later on I can always return it. That way you don't miss out and who knows the figure may grow on you and you end up liking it at the end.

If you aren't a mint on card guy you could definitely make out like a Bandit on here, guys like PeteParker, Optimus Vader, DogfashionDisco and of course the ever present LORD Marvel have hooked me up. so make a list of what you 'want' and then post it in the wanted section and if you see something someone else wants maybe you could swing a trade.

for a an epic picture gallery of what figs are out there for MU i'd check out Vampireheart's page Marvel Universe

LORD MARVEL · 03-22-2012, 07:30 PM

Ooh Darkhawk is a good one to grab, the Wolvy/Sabre pack so so, depending if you're a big X-Fan.

i have to admit im not to familiar with darkhawk, but he just looked so cool that i was torn :/ , im pretty happy with doc strange though, and hopefully he can survive behind a whole peg of first class cykes/jeans packs until maybe saturday or sunday lol

and i was told the 2pack tan wolvy was a pretty good figure and i liked how sabretooth looked, so all permitting i may pick them up as well, maybe

I think Colossus was my third figure right after Red Hulk (bought on a whim) and Hobgoblin. I think once I got Kitty to go with Colossus was when I was hooked.

Don't kid yourself, just pull a chair up to the table and ante up and while you are at it repeat these words: "Hi my name is *insert your name here* and I'm addicted to plastic crack"
