New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

Yeah the newest waves are sparse over here, and, if they do show up they're gone in a day. So, i'll walk in and all thats left is the revision figures or a single Blastaar.

Symbiote · 05-19-2013, 08:26 AM

Also, finally got something for my hall of armor/workshop display. Shout out to Optimus Vader for providing the info on the target book.

Being a small town in Texas, I'm willing to presume it's fairly conservative. I say this because I've noticed whenever visiting towns like that, I've found good figures that may not have been considered "mainstream". Female action figures in particular. I remember getting my first movie Black Widow when she was new, one per, and near impossible to find. She was hanging front of mostly empty pegs where both movie Hawkeyes, all the Hulks, and IMs were already gone. I even found some empty packaging on the shelf below where some kid made off with a Thor.

lookin' good symbiote! Now, where did you get those walls from?

Prem1x · 05-19-2013, 09:33 AM

My kid and I are sitting here drooling over your Iron Man setup, Symbiote.

I think they are Gundam hangars, don't remember who makes them but they are on hlj/eBay. That really is a sweet setup he made. Love all those custom suits.

Without much explanation I am led to believe that the sdcc exclusive mu this year will be a dead pool corps set...

I can assume your getting this from those ebay auctions that have appeared? That's the sort of niche thing that should be a con exclusive.

Exactly, I mean, the time frames line right up, and you're right, thus will def ease some pain deciding how much to spend on this/whether to get this set or not...

Again, all speculation at this point, but all signs lead to these being the sdcc sclusives

skier352 · 05-19-2013, 03:33 PM

I believe you, but do you have pictures? I wanna see

I understand the logic of it but try explaining that to the Fin Fang Foom fans! I'm undecided on getting this. I have a deadpool so this would have to be a major improvement as I have no interest in the others really

The chinese sales are always like wildfire, I'm not surprised. I'm an MOC guy who isn't in a rush to have things first so I'll wait til the "official" sales or whatever. I look forward to reviews of them though

That's true, well, I am a little OCD myself, I can't stand not having every accessory with my loose figs, that's why I rarely buy from him for my number one figs, I would have to have caps sheild...

With that being said I know cap will be clearances on bbts for 7$ sooner or later

which cap?

shortysben · 05-19-2013, 04:27 PM

The new one, happy is selling it for 7$ shipped, but like I said I mp need the sheild! Haha

mikefavata · 05-19-2013, 06:17 PM

I really don't like that new Cap. The face is off and the boot cuffs & gloves will look silly unglued. If I pre-order the wave I'm selling/trading him.

joefan76 · 05-19-2013, 06:30 PM

I want this are there any left?

joefan76 · 05-19-2013, 06:46 PM

I only want a Lady Deadpool

I agree. Con exclusives should make the average collector feel like they are missing out on a key character. Like what if Hasbro thought Thanos was a too niche and made him an exclusive instead of a retail figure. Or they thought kids wouldn't care about Professor X so he was an exclusive. It's all about fan service and characters that won't have a huge demand.

Otherwise you get this reaction from collectors...

Ninjinister · 05-19-2013, 07:18 PM

Champpool is back. I got one of him and Lady DP because I have terrible luck getting these sorts of things at actual release.

I wonder if there's a third one to the set? Just regular DP? Hmm.

I wonder why Champpool is always in these sets of Deadpool Corps when he really wasn't a member.

The Rhino's on there too. I'll take my chances and try to get that one at retail.
