Ah, no unfortunately. I never bought the set. It's not even available where I am. Sorry.

My question to hasbro is it seems in a lot of cases MU is surpassing ML in sculpt/detail but lacking in articulation,stands, weapons,alternate hands/headsculpts, are we ever going to see a MU figure that has moving fingers, like a 3 point digit system for the hands to be fully posably, I want Iron man to be able to flip the bird to Cap, or for hawkeye to hold an arrow! I would kill for some articulated 1/18th scale hands, I'd repaint them no biggy, anybody else tired of a closed fist or stupid hand gesture pose?

I appreciate what you're saying here about detail and articulation but I think asking for full hand articulation on figures this size is both impossible and a recipe for QC meltdowns. They'd just be far too fragile, not to mention subject to ugly joint issues.

What we are getting with figures like the new Dr. Strange is ideal in my view. Having both a swivel and pivot in the wrists opens up more than enough possibilities for posing a four inch figure. Perhaps some figures could benefit from swappable hands too, much like the DBZ Hybrid Action series of figures. Any further than that though and I think it verges into undesirable and expensive territory.

[Boba Fettuccini]

the Iron man Mk V armor already implemented a swappable hand, so maybe we'll see more. I'd like to have an option for two fists and two spread palms on those Iron Man armors... but no such luck.

be careful with that pose. Symbiote and I did a similar pose when we first got Colossus, except he was holding Wolvie at the base of his foot instead of the ankle like you have him. What ended up happening is that Colossus ended up having an arm that got very loose from the stress of holding up the weight of another figure. (we left him in that pose for a few weeks, mind you)

Just be aware. It is a sick pose, but flight stands help to make this more animated.

This is an awesome pic, man! and it needs to be converted into your sig.

I love it when people get creative with their figures. Keep em' coming. The pics I mean.

Fine, I'll be the big dude lover for a week.. then I'm changing it to the cool one you gave me

Its not a tru exclusive. I have seen these at the Disney store. Also there is a single carded storm coming out. So unless you really want Thunderbird I say you pass.

The one at The Diseny store is $49.99 plus the Nightcrawler figure is a variant. TRU is 37.99.

I know how much they are. Just saying it's not a TRU exclusive. And not all the ones at the Disney stores are variants. Just the easiest place to find them. Also storm and colossus are variants too. Not just the nightcrawler

I bought it (the variant set) because I'm weak. I didn't have a NC, Storm, or T-bird of course, and I'm a sucker for a nice looking package.

I only moved the camara Backwards while taking the Photo!

I am really lucky to have bought the Wonderman from the Marvel Legends Line!

[afgoosett]

Bad news guys. Went back to Tru this morning and to my surprise the Deadpool Tasky pack was gone. It seems like every time I see these guys out in the wild and say "I'll come back tomorrow" they get snatched up that day... I must have the worst luck in the world. Well I take that back I went across the street to the Walmart and found the Fantastic Four and Avengers three packs no Future Foundations though I'd fuckin kill for that pack I'm a sucker for up to date current representations of characters.

[sug2763]

Future Foundation pack is on eBay, if yer willing to spend a couple of extra bucks.

I suggest reading them from the start (free archives).
This is my favorite web-comic by far!

at least they admitted its a custom this time.

[Zictor]

Wow, I had about 10 pages worth of stuff to go through because I've not been on here in like a week or so. Loving the Avengers Team Lord Marvel has assembled as I've been watching Earths Mightiest Heroes recently and I like their lineup!

I've just gone and got myself paid so I can now buy the Hulk, but like a sucker I want to get one cheaper. He's gone up from £18 to £29 since I've not been able to afford him, anyone know where I can get one a bit cheaper? I checked the obvious like eBay and Amazon, none of the stores I can get to have had him so online seems like my best bet!

Edit. After a bit of searching I found one and got one for £19. Just hope it arrives. I know where the guy who's supposed to be sending it lives so I'll go kick his teeth in if he doesn't send it. Haha! :P
