Finally got my hands at a SS Venom at TRU. Now just waiting for that canadian exclusive Shocker to cross borders, is this the last wave of the spidey line?? We still need to see Sandman on these line , as I remember seeing a prototype being offered by that chinese ebayer.

So now that we are getting the revision wave with Dr strange he should be easier to find right? Cuz I am kicking myself for passing on him for 10$ at my LCS yesterday.

If you line the breakaway glass up perfectly to it's little hook in points with the bottom flange going in and the stand inside in the right spot, it'll click pretty securely. I had that problem at first too, but now it's almost a pain to get out.

Yeah but they see, to have dropped that character and overall concept- he started out as the Collective from New Avengers- a mutant that somehow absorbed all the mutant powers from M Day.

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

DUDE!!! THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME TODAY BRO!!!!

I went to the walmart nearest me and I'm so use to never finding anything there. I had all but given up hope on finding anything at retail and guess what?!?! I found me a future foundation f4 boxset and the guardians of the galaxy boxset!!! Unfortunately I didn't find me a Magneto that I've been hunting but I can't complain with my pleasant little haul. PICS COMING SOOOOOON!!!!

Jason Abbadon · 11-03-2011, 05:00 PM

I hope the revision cases have Cable with baby Hope- I need a baby for Cage to dag around (minor repaint required).

bmorr · 11-03-2011, 05:01 PM

edit: whoops forgot to add context. the the thing is, it looks like the revision wave we just got

Went to my local TRU today and they'd got rid of most of their MU stuff and only had US Agent left in the captain america line and all them rubbishy spidermen who aren't spiderman really... I asked the guy stacking the shelves about them and they'd apparently sent them all back because nobody was buying them...

So my question is why on earth have I never been able to find Daredevil if this is the case?!?!?

D Day · 11-03-2011, 05:33 PM

Hey peter parker!!! clear out your messages so we can do some business yo!

I got my astral strange today in the mail, and then I found the color version at target! great day. there were two there, i picked up the one with the normal eyebrow as opposed the the rock eyebrow.

I know, I've found a few figs in pretty good shape there. Unfortunately the die cast car is too much for Iron monger to handle. So I'll have to find a new set up.

evilanimation · 11-03-2011, 06:47 PM

I saw 2 Color Stranges and Apoc.

Yeah gotta be careful with those poses. It will loosen up the joints too. My colossus joint are loose because he's been doing some heavy lifting with the sentinels.

Meaning 2 of the colorful Dr. Stranges, as opposed to the astral variant's.

Lol, just buy it and return it to another Target so you don't have to look at it anymore.

Oh, and here's today's haul!
