New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

ukmu · 02-21-2017, 06:36 AM

Roughly 30-40 when done and dusted (depending on how big the SDCC set is, if it's one of the box sets shown or if we even get one at all)
as little as 10 new figures, depending on how you count them.

Also worth mentioning, no word on a single carded Lockjaw either.
Plus, always holding on for Gold Ultron and Executioner.

Sinister Six box set also includes a Spiderman and if I recall correctly I read somewhere about a Thor MCU 2 pack later this fall. I'll have to track that down again.

If they are showing figures already I doubt. If it was a photoshop only as we initially saw maybe but by now everything is ready and in production correcting minor things. They moved on for new projects by now for sure.

Ninjinister · 02-21-2017, 12:11 PM

Wait where did this Guardians box set come from?

I didn't realize the the SS is a box set, although hmm do I get rid of my singles then for it or don't bother with the box set at all :P Considering we have all those figures already. I finally had the time to organize my MU's and realized we had the SS! Too bad they didn't do like a Symbiote box set instead now that would have been cooler. It is too bad they did away with the MU card art though, those were pretty awesome...

Il Cattivo · 02-21-2017, 01:08 PM

is the gotg boxset mcu or comic?

Lionheart · 02-21-2017, 01:09 PM

I wonder what insane price they'll be charging for those repaints in a single box?

It's an Amazon exclusive boxset...Which will be going on my Christmas list, since I don't have most of the originals.

Drax's legs appear to be different.

I would love a symbiote box set with toxin, venom, anti venom, carnage,and hybrid (or any symbiotes). I would still prefer a maximum carnage box set with shriek, doppelgänger, demogoblin, a venom on the Hercules buck and a carnage on the commander rogers buck. Heck I'd settle for ANY new figures at this point. Oh well my wallet won't suffer in 2017 as much as it has in prior years. The 6" collectors have got to be spending a fortune if they are completionists.
But hey look at the bright side, we finally get those highly demanded grill marks on mysterio!

snake5289 · 02-21-2017, 02:54 PM

A symbiote box set of any kind would be so awesome. Doesn't matter who they picked for it I'd buy one in a second.

You can actually have that Drax right now, if you want. Just buy a spare Zero Gravity Iron Man, and swap their legs below the first knee joint.

Seriously, that's ALL they did. It's amazing.

EZTOYDUDE · 02-21-2017, 03:18 PM

Wait so I'm still confused was the thor 2 pack 6inch or 4inchn

It's not clear. It's been reported that it's 3.75 which makes sense. Why not if you are doing the other MCU movies, but I don't think anyone said Thor 2 pack is definitely 3.75. It was mentioned at the same proximate time that they were talking about 3.75 two packs so it makes sense but not confirmed. There's also a very weak weak rumor that the Capcom figures will be 3.75. I think that's wishful thinking and probably not happening. There are figures from the Capcom game coming and we really don't need another 6 inch line. So obviously they'll be 6 inch.'

I think the comic 2 pack might have shown up on eBay but I don't think it hit retail.

Yeah the old Drax used the Sandman buck. Hated that.

CCC.

Agree and I've honestly come to prefer MCU style Groot so I've use a variety of movie figures as Groot. Drax is better here though. I do hope this line holds on long enough for Gamora to be repainted into something useful. A Rescue would be acceptable though by no means comic accurate.
