Nice. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I like the body better than the head. But overall a Tony Stark figure is long overdue. It took 3 movies and the Avengers before we got one?

I think it was the "pregnant" part of your comment that threw him

Yup. Far as I know, no man can get pregnant gay or otherwise.

Why would you want to get pregnant? Imagine trying to squeeze a new born out your uriniary track? OUCH!

Hey guys, whats the word on a release date, for the black knight series. When do you think it will hit retail ? Also any word on the Thor 3 pack. It would suck to not get a executioner. Maybe they will drag it over to the avengers line.

I would say late October to early November for the Black Knight series and if I had to guess, the 3 packs for the Christmas season.

other than Hulk being grey, and ghost rider being...uh skin necked and brighter blue, anyone notice any differences in the new repacks? I have Colossus,warpath and nova, who by the way is a rediculous repack, like ten figures later and boom reissued minus that wonderful "comic shot"!, I've been squinting at them for a couple days now and all I can come up with is Colossus is a little glossyer and has a better paint job than my old one. I was wondering if any of the others ( Red Hulk, Wolverines, hawkeye, ect) are different. oh yeah notice nova and colossus are now "Marvel's" colossus and Nova. I never got those specific distinctions.

InfinityParadox · 10-09-2013, 10:59 PM

Man I want that Grey Hulk

I AGREE! But I can see how the studios pushed for a second movie with Devito and Arnold after the success of Twins. Twins was gimmicky funny, but you're right "junior" was just gross. They should have just done a Twins 2.

I know the original X-force Wolverine has a matte finish and the series 5 version has a glossy finish.

So excited for Northstar-Aurora twins and a Valkyrie figure!!

Riddick: thanks for the pics!
As for the Tie Tony, you used a Prof X body?
Also I so much want the World Peacekeepers destroyed building, that's a hell of a piece of diorama!

Riddick · 10-10-2013, 06:35 AM

Yeah, the bottom is the Professor and the top one is the SDCC Comic Con Exclusive G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra Destro. I actually prefer the Destro because of the stripes and paint work. I figured I'd post the Professor too because more people have that.

Both are generic enough terms that can be used in other similar media. So in order to trademark their specific version, Marvel has to put their name with it. It's similar to what Hasbro has done with some Transformer characters (except they use Autobot or Decepticon, usually). Also the same reasoning for why certain G.I.Joe characters are now referred to by their file name and their code name is treated more like a nickname (i.e. Conrad "Duke" Hauser).

Gods, no! Junior should have never been made. I wanted to burn my eyes out and scrub my brain with bleach after watching only part of Junior. But I don't think a sequel to Twins would have been much better. Never was a fan of Arnold the comedian.

BEAM · 10-10-2013, 07:10 AM

So far I'm not that impressed with the movie figures revealed at NYCC. We're getting 10 Spideys and one Electro. Did they learn nothing from the ASM pegwarming? My guess is it's much, much cheape rto repaint 8-10 Spidey figures than produce a new or kitbashed figure. Still, I'd kill for a Garfield Spidey or Emma Stone Gwen.

And Winter Solider looks to have as much articulation as Kurse and Loki from T

Not even Kindergarten Cop??? Lets play a game called, "who is your daddy and what does he do?"
