I like this Daredevil variant, and it certainly lends him a greater ability to blend in compared with the bright red or yellow costumes! Here's hoping to a Bullseye variant to go along with him.

Thing variant has been out forever, and i've been seeing a lot of him. Bullseye variant/reissues abound as well.

[ZeoVGM]

The Thing one was common around here in Mass. The Bullseye one is very new and I don't think many people have found it.

Of course SDCC was in August.

[Kluster Bombs]

Someone posted a link with better pics from an E-bay seller who had them. This was about 1-2 months ago.

I wish I could remember what forum this was posted at.

Yeah, but they were loose. I think this is a hoax.

They are already out. It took three months for Wave 5 to start showing up everywhere, and it just showed up in my town last week. Trust me, it is real.

LOL this toy is gonna be like the Sasquatch of the MU line. Does it exist?!?!?!?!?

Heres my expert opinion MARVEL UNIVERSE DAREDEVIL DARKER RED BROWN ULTRA RARE ! - eBay (item 390119667543 end time Nov-19-09 19:43:49 PST)

I find it mildly retarded that it being fake is a possibility in some people's minds.

[megatronkicksas]

Yeah, they're here in NY

Lol its a conspiracy!

[mmoote]

Strange, but i saw a bunch of "new" MU figures at my local Walmart tonight and most of them looked like garbage (by new I mean new in store but from older waves). Terrible paint jobs, Guardian, Spidey, Captain America and others. I worry Hasbro is really slipping. If I did not know better, I would swear they are counterfeit, they look so bad. Can't figure out how Hasbro would put out crap like this. Anyone else seeing this out there?

[mmoote]

not sure how I got multiple posts here, excuse the rookie.

Looking at this link on EBay, seller is from China. You're right, Scarecrow, never any counterfeit merchandise out of China.

Recently I bought a loose "Disney Pixar" car from a seller in China only to have it arrive a completely different scale, and much less intricate details - clearly counterfeit.

While you might be right that this DD may be a running change and future release, I would never trust a "loose" figure from China as legit, especially one that has not been posted on any websites as an upcoming release.

There was a pic from SDCC which showed this Daredevil.
Not to mention China is where they are made & come out first.

Yeah Hasbro needs to up their game in the quality control department.

Oh, I was wrong to not assume that because it is from China, it is a fake piece of crap. Fantastic post, welcome to the forums.

I said it was retarded because IT IS. I have seen it before with my own eyes and I have no reason to mislead anyone.

The World's Greatest Fakes - 60 Minutes - CBS News

Buyer beware is all I am saying. Having been a victim, and seeing continued stories of China as the counterfeit capital of the world. From cigarettes, to cars, to pharmaceuticals, to golf clubs to toys. You name they fake it, and sometimes better than others as my recent disney pixar car experience showed.

Above is a decent story on the industry, though the stories abound. I would just use caution, especially with anything loose, though even packaging is easily reproduced.

Again, in the end, with this product you may very well be right since you've seen it yourself, especially at SDCC which essentially closes the issue. But with all products I would exercise caution. Call me paranoid, but in China it is a multi-billion dollar industry. That's just a fact.

Very true you can even see fake Transformers at Big Lots & Dollar General.

I actually don't believe this is true, though I'd love to be wrong. Could you find that picture for us?

You just said above that you've seen it. Okay, so swing by and take a picture of it. Help out the community and clear up the confusion.

We're talking about a hobby in which some people buy action figures, take them home and open them, then replace them with an old same-scale figure, repackage it, and return it to the store. Then we see Toy Biz figures repackaged as MU figures.

I find it strange that you find it "retarded" that people might question it.

That Ebay link someone posted earlier? That's one of two pictures I've ever seen for it. I've seen that exact same Ebay picture about 2 months ago (also on Ebay). And it's from freaking China.

We've yet to see a single carded image of this, which we saw quickly for all the previous variants. And I'm not trying to be rude, I'm simply asking: could you stop by that store and take a picture of it for us? That picture would quickly spread throughout all the websites and you would end up clearing things up for the entire community.

Okay, seriously. Relax. We both know he's saying is that it's POSSIBLE. No reason to be rude to him.

You say you've seen it and I don't think you're lying, but take a picture for us. Otherwise it's just someone on a forum saying they've seen it. And that's not fact.

If you believe that I am not pulling your leg, then I don't necessarily need to take a picture. And if it's that big of a deal to you, why don't you just repaint your figure? You're telling me to relax, but you really don't believe it is real because you can't see it with your own eyes. I'm just going to say, yes, you're probably right I likely found a repacked figure, it doesn't exist.

[clevelandhags]

I'm a huge fan of this line and would love some confirmation on this. Anybody else see it? Pics? I'm in the midwest and it usually takes longer to see the new stuff.

[ZeoVGM]

No real confirmation. There's been like one or two pictures on Ebay at the most, without a single person on a forum posting a personal picture.
