For anyone that preordered wave 18 from BBTS have you gotten yours yet or at least had them ship? I heard a few days ago about people having theirs being processed. When I preordered it said July and now my preorder says September, WTF? If they aren't getting them till September I'll probably just find them at retail by then so I think I'm gonna cancel.

I received my notification. Apparently they have it in hand but still no shipping notification. They better get that shit out soon. Like tomorrow!

Also I noticed on my online banking that the payment has been withdrawn and is still pending. But the amount is higher than what it should have been by 7-8 bucks. It could just be the purchase grouped with another and wont show until posted into my main account page. But it is listed as a BBT transaction. Has anyone else had this issue?

It reminds me of PR stunts like the Weiner mobil and the Red Bull car.

In the more recent Fraction run, he designs a car that runs off of an arc reactor. In a weird way, this car is like a throwback to that but in a hummer-esque motif instead of the roadster style the comic car was.
Stark being a technology developer though, lots of the side ironman things can skate or be interwoven in via imagination and creativity.

Stark himself would probably design an armor deployment system in his own concept car. I'm mildly curious why hasbro hasn't cashed in on that via some kind of quick change coupe like kenner used for the batman line and superman line way back when.

The other mobile vehicles you can also lean towards how often Ironman (comics and toons at least) loses power and needs repairs.

They definitely could all be re-released in shield colors though. Along with the Hulkbuster hummers, and maybe even certain Joe vehicles. Works for me, since my GI Joe collection is my version of Shield. xD

That she hulk head sculpt can be used for all sorts of stuff.

SoundWave88 · 07-31-2012, 05:55 PM

Anyone still looking for an Ultimate Iron Man from the IM2 line?

shortysben · 07-31-2012, 05:55 PM

QUICK! Someone talk me out of buying BRB solo on ebay for 22$ shipped!!!

I am going crazy...about to pull the trig!

conan050 · 07-31-2012, 05:58 PM

I wish I knew about that new MU revision case before Toywiz shipped my Wave 18 figs! It would of been a much better deal!

shortysben · 07-31-2012, 05:59 PM

So do you guys think I should just get the revision case?

By the weekend?! Really?!

If it's shipping from E-tailers today then it should start to arrive at LCS this week, maybe not the large multiple retailers like walmart but certainly smaller indies should start to see stock

He has good stuff. The only complaint I had was that the maskless X-23 head I bought from him has the hair piece too hard and it prevents you from moving the head around. I'm not sure if he fixed this yet.

Vortious customs fixed this issue on his woman head molds.

I also got notification on my bbts order but I'm anxiously waiting for it. I hope i get it by Friday.

By the weekend, he means very very soon...

On a Side note, how do I tell my LCS I dont need them to hold them for me anymore if I get the revision case...also I am a hunter, I enjoy looking for these in stores, and trying to trade or buy the ones I need from arkers, and boarders in general...still on the fence...

Think I might buy the Beta on egay, and wait for the others in retail...

I hear you there. I like to find stuff in the wild but from experience I know I won't see every figure from both of these waves up here (we skip whole waves sometimes) and the price per figure is the same I'm currently paying at retail. I won't rely on my LCBS where I know these will show up but all the figures are at least $12.99. With an infant I've decided it's better to be smart about my money on this one because I know I would likely have to resort to ebay for 3-4 of these and then the prices get to be too much. Only figure from the case I don't really care about is Colossus and I guess Kang. If it was like previous waves and I only wanted 2 or 3 of the figures I would just pick them up individually. Only problem is going to be variants.

shortysben · 07-31-2012, 06:36 PM

Variants might be a problem, but I am not a completist nor am I a spidy fan, so I think I am good one these...

Plus I have been doing this long enough to know that these figures will most likely be 8.99 a piece on ebay soon...I just see the Beta Ray and the expected arrival date within the week and its hard to resist (he is the one I want most)

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-31-2012, 06:38 PM

Does anyone have a Dr. Doom that they don't want that I could trade for?

SoundWave88 · 07-31-2012, 07:12 PM

Anyone seen this red masked version before??

Marvel Univers X-Men ThunderBird Warpath 3/4 3.75" Loose Auction Figures DC-91 | eBay

Edit: I guess its just a head swap from the red costume version....
