Hunting in SD can indeed be a pain in the a$$. Another reason why I love the ark, collectors helping other collectors.

I at first wanted the Magneto...But in person the 3 packs I saw had a lot of paint issues.....Unless I can find a decent one,I might get it...But IMO its not worth 20$....Considering none of us are buying it for the Cap fig....

On another note...BBTS is having a picture contest...Winner gets 500$ in store credit...Look at their FB page...Contest ends Aug 7th....

Yup that cap figure is not appealing to me. The shading doesn't look right.

Nice heads up on the bbts contest.

That blastaar figure is a must for me.

Jimmyo · 07-25-2012, 08:55 AM

Those new paint apps are awful compared to the originals, so metalic paint is now too expensive for hasbro lol.

Yup! At first I thought this would be an NYCC show exclusive like Compound Hulk. If it's the subscription figure I'm passing. I think I have all the parts and pieces to kitbash one of these things

Yeah I was bummed about Colossus not having metallic paint apps. The Silver Centurion IM has a white pearl finish but doesn't look as good as the 1st release imo.

Mysterio is slated for "Spring '13", but those cards usually don't mean anything real. Maybe we'll see him in December, or maybe next May.

You should be able to find a Shocker in a recently released Spidey Copter set that's around in the UK these days. He's packed in with a Lizard too! The US hasn't ever had a Shocker release yet...

If this is the sub figure it looks like shit.

Gotta be a custom based on the formula. The slide had separated claws and MUCH better paint.

I'd love a Jewel figure, but not a Jessica Jones. There was a wonderful cosplay version of Jewel at SDCC.

They said at the booth that they try to read as much of the forums/boards as possible, but there's just too much to read. They also are given stacks of Marvel books before they come out so that Hasbro can try to make relevant figures, but that doesn't always work out.

It's still supposed to, but isn't out yet, if that's what you're asking.

MGTAJ · 07-25-2012, 10:10 AM

Thanks PeteParker, that's what I meant. I'll avoid paying the Ebay premium price if it's going to be re-released

behindthemask · 07-25-2012, 10:32 AM

Is antman pack still getting made?
