I see HASBRO has released pics of the GI JOE set. Maybe it's old news, but I just saw it. The set is kind of shitty but it exists at least..... where's ours?

I just saw that too... around $100 for a bunch of cardboard and 3 cobra dudes, not much to look at, but it does give me hope we may get something since they just announced the gi joe exclusive.

A month away from comic con and no announcement yet, keep those eyes peeled UKMU...

Also in the marvel vs capcom thread it was announced we would get captain marvel vs ryu in addition to the IM/mega man pack... hope they do a new headssculpt for carol at least since she has longer hair in the game.
I'll save some of the 6" collectors the effort...
"they should be making these in 6" not 3.75"

I've only got a choice of 63 figures so far and the year is already half over now.....

At least you can save some money.

[Exodus]

Seems this year SDCC for figures seems to be kind of a disappointment nothing really stands out. Heck Hasbro hasn't even revealed much either.

[ukmu]

New slogan.....

"HASBRO - looking out for the little man."

Followed by a video promo that goes like this.

"Here at HASBRO we respect and appreciate the 3.75" collector so much. That is why we are committed to saving them so much money. For years we bled them dry with sub par toy lines. Now more than ever, family matters. So why not spend that money and time with your family. No longer do you need to scour the internet, spend time on forums, or F4 endlessly post COMIC CON. So here's to you, the the collectors of the mother scale. You carried us for years, so now have a rest."

I picture it opening with a close up of an eagle and fades to Lord Stall, wearing a flannel checked shirt, walking on a summer mountain butte in Alaska on crisp,warm and green day as he speaks to the camera. Ends with a pan to an American flag waving and cue Lee Greenwood singing Proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free....... end promo.

But then the real last scene opens with him turning around in a chair about to speak then a large piano drops on him.

No, no, no. It is followed by a news blurb about how Funko and Super 7's stock just quadrupled unexpectedly in about 3 minutes.


CCC.

Thanks for the update, Kernel, that is more good news. I was starting to fear that the MvC series was limited to just IronMan vs MegaMan. Hopefully, Hasbro will reveal more at San Diego.

[snake5289]

That's cool but I hope they branch out a little more. Seriously there aren't enough Devil May Cry figures in this world.

no it is around $50 not $100 but I'm sure some scalpers will try to sell it that much

I think they should be out by the time SDCC is going on.

based on one of the early photos, i figured not until August. The news link says Fall 2017. Wouldn't be surprised, though, if it is earlier.

rocket and groot (kinda hard to see but he's on rocket's shoulder) from the disney store figurine set

[ukmu]

That works well enough. Nice little addition to a cinematic shelf. Gold star

Oh that's much more reasonable. I was looking at the Australian price:

Nice. Is there a full name of the set so I can have a search for it?

[Il Cattivo]

its just called guardians of the galaxy vol. 2 figurine set.

[ukmu]

I saw that set in Bradford Oscar....they are here.

[Mordiganne]

Just a quick check in. Good to see you guys excited about something coming down the pike. Looking forward to the new Enchantress myself. Hopefully it will save me from having to make one.


Nice collection pics, Pilkster. I'll give them a better look when I have more time. Quick question though, why do a bunch of your figs on display not have heads???


I've started reading the "Spider-Island" story and it really kind of sucks. I got through 6 issues in the reading order then skipped straight to the final two issues because its a boring slog. I'll finish the rest eventually but it's not a good story so far.

Excellent, thank you chaps.

Mordi... I have the same issue with comics sometimes, I just plough through them though (good story or not). It's nice to know you have the full picture with things. However... crossovers... don't get me started with those. I know minimal amounts about many stories that I couldn't even try to put together. All due to crossovers.
