I would be very surprised if they were different. I looked it up and every target around me has that DCPI in stock

I need to make a classic Defenders pic- I've got them all. Now we just need the rest of that team....a lot of characters!
Hey, you see that Nick Fury and Ant Man (Scott Lang) are joining up?

I forsee people adding articulation to that fig!

I've actually read that book so I should have remembered that. When I think X-Factor I think "Fall of the Mutants"

I prefer the Apocalypse from the the X-Factor set but the Sinister from the 2-Pack. The colors are of Apocalypse are more in line with his classic look. The single-carded Apocalypse is clearly from "Messiah War", which is cool. I just want a gigantic battles pack with him or a slightly taller version.

Depending on how much, I might gladly take that Apoc off your hands. I like the set one more than the carded.

That's the Puck that came out in the Alpha Flight 5-ish inch series. Static figure, I think it has a springy waist (side to side) so you can flick him across the table in cartwheels. Same series that released the Sasquatch and owl pictured. I have them, don't remember how they were packaged but I have Snowbird, Puck, Sasquatch, Aurora, Northstar, and Vindicator. Limited articulation ('Squatch has the most) but very nice figures overall. Vindicator has real hair, the others are sculpted.

I have shs Thor I like his hammer but I prefer light up base modern Thor JMO

I'm glad they are not releasing that one outside the box set.

ALL the modern Hulks are too danm small! Ya gotta do work to get the right sized jade jaws! Same with Thor- Showdown Thor rocks the scale though-

AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!

By the way did u paint that hulk yourself if so great job if I didn't tell u before

Jason Abbadon · 07-23-2012, 10:29 PM

Thanks- yeah, he's drybrushed to the hilt- it's originaly the Grey Hulk from the first Hulk movie or something- I nabbed him loose for five bucks from my LCS!

I believe that Colossus is a repaint of the box set version, not the single card

Wave 8

MeLikeJinx · 07-23-2012, 11:08 PM

^ Yah... I missed the box set one and was waiting for the CP one cuz I like the old school shoulder pads and kneepads, but looks like the CP one isn't shiny. So looks like I gotta go with the single card one because I needs my Colossus to be shiny. LOL.

I was hoping the CP Colossus would look like the one that was on ebay: http://i1132.photobucket.com/albums/...l2011/5160.jpg But the one BAD MOON got from Target is like flat grey almost.

wolverine2281 · 07-23-2012, 11:26 PM

yeah, the rest I have seen (from others' hauls) are dull like that. I never noticed how shiny that ebay one looked but it was probably just the flash. If you need that boxset one LMK. I'm sure I have a few

Snailbot · 07-23-2012, 11:30 PM

I would love to get a Showdown Beast but I'll probably have to wait for an MU version (not current Beast). That Angel figure though, I think he is most dope.

Also note that the Giant size X-Men set has a Variant Colossus with gold paint, I dont know if that was mentioned before.

wolverine2281 · 07-24-2012, 12:02 AM

no, I didn't mention it. Just mostly stating the fact that the single carded figure is not shiny like he was looking for.

I meant overall, I remember everyone talking about the nightcrawler and storm but not colossus.

wolverine2281 · 07-24-2012, 12:32 AM

oh. Well I'm sure it was mentioned whenever the set same out. MeLikeJinx was just talking about the Juggy/Colossus 2-pack vs. the single carded one.

No, I know I was just adding that one in case he wants to compare and he can find the one he prefers.
