Don't forget you are also getting hairy arms.

Still not enough for me to buy the new one, it's still mostly the same toy. Would it have been nice if these features were included with the Juggernaut wave Wolvie? Yeah, but as with this Punisher I'm not gonna spend $20 for the (mostly) same toy with minor upgrades like trigger fingers. All it does is irritate me that Hasbro blew us off the first time around with Frank.

That'd be awesome!

You could always buy Punisher, switch the hands, and then return it as defective.

Yeah, how about we don't encourage crap like that.

Would you rather the figure went to a scalper who sells it for four times what it is worth? At least a real fan would get better use of it.

Yes. If you partake in this practice, you are far, far worse than any scalper.

Real fan... What garbage.

Not meant to be a burn. Just flabbergasted at the lengths "fans" go to so they can satisfy their entitlement.

I figured, but I'll take what I can get and work with it

[warmachine6]

There will always be a 'better figure' to give you a reason to buy that new one, shame it's trigger fingers in this case, and nothing really unique. If anything your buying it for the fancy packaging

I've seen worse.

Could be worse, a person that does that could just stick a skull shaped pear into the box and return it.

checked 4 walgrens and didnt see the vintage wave. i did pick up Frieza thou. i finally saw Ares, had it in hand but i didnt buy it. one walgrens had like 5 C-3PO's and another had 6 invisible women.

[Phantomcrow]

I hit 3 walgreens and 0 at store 1.
2 punisher, 1 iron man, 1 cap, 1 spiderman at store 2.
And only one lone cap at store 3.

Check those overhead shelves. All I saw were on the top shelves not near the regular toys at all.

Thanks for posting this. I've only been looking near the toys, not the overheads. Thanks.

[redfox]

After posting my previous comment, I hit 4 Walgreen's:

0 at Store 1.
0 at Store 2.
0 at Store 3.
Found Iron Man and Black Widow on an overhead at Store 4.

Grabbed Black Widow. She was my biggest priority for this wave. I'll wait and pick up any others at a later date.

[Dr Kain]

I went to 6 Walgreens today and not a single one of them even had a price tag for the vintage line to tell me they are even floating around.

[Marine73]

Same here, nothing in my area either.

[redfox]

They might not be in the most visible/logical places. The two I found were lying flat on the overhead shelf, nearly out of sight. I almost left empty-handed, if not for a fateful glance. Good luck, guys!

I was looking everywhere. In teh toy isle, in the seasonal isles, behind the Halloween costumes, etc.

[Parademon1]

I'm pretty much just gonna get BW for my classic Avengers, Wolvy cuz his uniform colors are comic accurate plus the unmasked head, cowl & hairy arms, will sell off my Juggernaut BAF Wolvy if I can find the vintage version. And I'm leaning on getting the Spidey due to the comic accurate colors as well. Cap/Punisher, I'm good with the Walgreens version fig of and I'm good to go with the classic Cap that came with the wolf cap head, though I threw that head in my fodder box. That was a dumb story plot back then. And would have loved to get that IM, but he is too short.

[Dr Kain]

I want Cap because of the painted on details and the shield effect despite being on the wrong hand.

Wolverine is a must for the unmasked head, painted on arm hair, and the lighter brown matches the comic art.

Punisher for the trigger fingers.
