Doctor Strange and GotG 2 where announced at the same time. GotG 2 came out in time for the movie and Strange for the video release. So could be similar at Toy Fair this year: Announce Avengers, BP and Ant Man. Ant Man and Avengers come out in time for movie and BP for Video.

Hoping so.

I totally dig that MCU Ghost or Wasp from the Ant-Man & the Wasp trailer. Of course, a MCU Thanos and a MCU Shuri or Nakia would be awesome as well.

I really want the rest of the GotG to go with Star-Lord and Yondu. Wouldn't complain about an MCU Thanos either as long as he's wearing the comic outfit.

DerStahlhelm · 01-31-2018, 06:11 PM

The timing of the release of the Civil War and Ant-Man stuff was off too, if I recall. I’m a bigger fan of comic based figures, but the movie two packs are some of the best non-star wars stuff Hasbro has done in this scale in years. I hope we get more.

ukmu · 01-31-2018, 08:25 PM

That BP head looks nice. I'd like to see it on some other bucks as well. I only have the original Black Panther but there were some nice ones released. With the sculpted necklace and a cape would be pretty cool.

ukmu · 01-31-2018, 09:03 PM

Oh.... Just remembered what I wanted to ask.

Any one get the expensive SkittlePool Party Pack? I thought I would get it just to fill out a DP shelf. With the SDCC figures, a scaled red Vespa scooter, a FunKo Pop Taco truck, I thought getting those guys would make it a little more "full" looking.

Otherwise I have pretty much zero use for them. I don't pay the current 80 price tag though. As I don't see the value in it. If it was worth it and I thought it was something I wanted to support from HASBRO then I would bite. As it stands, 20 each for the four coloured figures (sounds racist) is too much to my mind. Especially since the weapons are minimal and zero extras and I could give a toss about that needlessly over sized box.

I honestly think they are worth about 8 per figure but that is wishful thinking I suppose. That said, what else can go on a DP dedicated shelf? I have a little PacMan machine and a HYDRA Bob planned. Just thought we needs his own little area. Maybe get a bunch of weapons from Marauders to have a cool little wall of guns? Stuff like that, bit are there any other figures that would work to add?

I’m sure NiteLife will have some good ideas.

But I can think of the Heroclix Doop, maybe Colossus, Cable, and/or Negasonic & Domino (customs) if you want to add some cinematic ideas.
...the blind roommate on a couch would be funny too.

I got it for £48 from Kapow toys over here, I don't want to miss out and regret it later and to be honest my MU budget has nothing else to be spent on

Ninjinister · 02-01-2018, 12:15 AM

Wait the Poo' Pack is out!?

the movie BP head is stuck on there really well
I can't get it off!
I think I still have original BP somewhere

here is SHIELD planning an attack on Hydra island while I try to find another BP body

Yeah those all sell with good distribution.

I'm disappointed in my Heroclix Doop. Way too small for me and I am not a stickler for scale.

ukmu · 02-01-2018, 09:07 AM

Doop shouldn't be too hard to make. I mean he is basically a ping pong ball with some Slimer (Ghostbusters) arms.

AG... That pic is Sooo cool. Not sure about the whole attacking HYDRA thing though. I mean, can't you S.H.I.E.L.D. bullies just leave us alone. We never hurt anyone.

Thanks Jimmy, under 50 is much better. Good looking out!

Good ideas Sender. Thanks.

Also, just got a Thanos throne. I can't resist a chair I guess. It is easily the coolest thing MU related I have seen since the Doom Castle in 2015 at SDCC.

I made a Green Lantern animated movie Chaselon using a Styrofoam fishing bobber, a bit more stable than a ping pong ball.

CCC.

Speaking of KS are the Zombie Lab figures still on point to ship in a few weeks? I didn't order but plan to buy from their store as the shipping is free and the price is like £17 each for the UK so I figure I would just grab a couple a month and build them slowly and wasn't bothered about the KS exclusive stuff.

The glove insects aren't happening yet. Shame really.

I read Zombie Labs may be under pressure due to the number of different figures their producing. Will be doing two big waves? Anyways, target is still before summer.

Sooo on a whim last night, I covered the blue on Black Panther's replacement legs(I swapped them at the hip from Grim Reaper)with a Bic Tuxedo black permanent marker. Here are the results:

FYI - I just found this on ebay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/IN-HAND-HAS...K/282825592928 Its very cheap but for some reason no payment option worked for me - both paypal and credit card got rejected. If anyone managed to get one extra package I would be grateful for it.

snake5289 · 02-01-2018, 01:28 PM

Did the box really need to be that big?

Hmm, at the price, I may grab it for a video, but I doubt I'd keep it beyond the red one. I might burn the box as a joke(I'm exploring options). So if you're okay with that, and If I choose to sell it on, you'll be the first person I contact once I'm done.

If they accept MY payment, at least.

Cool, I do not need the box or red Deadpool, I am interested just in those non-red ones, so let me know.

DarthKamen · 02-01-2018, 03:41 PM

I see Deadpool decided to form a Power Ranger team.

I'm not the first person to make that joke, am I?

The Creator · 02-01-2018, 06:07 PM

Kidpool and Deadpool both agree to kill anyone that buys that crappy 5- pack
Could have easily made a simple 2-pack, such as Hydra Bob and Deadpool.
Nice work Goldbug sweet setup
