New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

Captain Nash · 03-03-2014, 07:21 AM

In general top 10 now, in order:

1. Emma Frost - damn you Hasbro for cancelling that 3 pack.

2. Selene
2 - tie - Polaris. I really am not sure which I want more of the two.
4. Lady Deathstrike
5. Justice
6. Viper
7. Count Nefaria. Used to be ranked higher but I did some rethinking
8. Forge
9. Bishop
10. Magik

Cannonball, Moonstar (New Mutants 3 pack anyone???) and Moonstone, Songbird (Thunderbolts 3 pack!!!) and Madame Masque are next priorities.

@ Spade, yeah I really do not care for Tigra all that much. I would buy her if she got made but she's not a favorite of mine. Though I think I would want her before Living Lightening, that was just a joke. Though since I do want Alt. Swordsmans and Magdalene before her it is hard to tell. It could have been worse - I could have said Deathcry or Dr. Druid.

bmorr · 03-03-2014, 07:24 AM

Frankly, id be happy to have more villains.

samsson37 · 03-03-2014, 08:54 AM

I agree bmoor.
Wendigo
Graviton
Swordsman
Moses magnum
Viper
Moonstonep
Maliketh
Titania
Man-ape (Just would look cool)
Wendigo
And give us the executioner!!

Captain Nash · 03-03-2014, 01:44 PM

More villains, yeah!

Agree with Graviton especially he's very high on my list as well. I only do repaints myself when I try to "customize" but I've been thinking of trying to find some spare Dr. Stranges and make both him and Count Nefaria - the head at least works.

I would have really though we'd get a Titania announced or release by now considering we got the She Hulk mold nearly two years ago. Red She Hulk is great but there's not that many females that mold will work on but Titania is definitely one of them.

Already have a huge want for the ones i posted above, but others I'd like to see are Exodus, Spiral, Deathbird, Shadow King, Typhoid Mary, Kingpin, Attuma, Hood, Annihilus, Blackheart, Nimrod, Bastion, Black Swan, Sebastian Shaw, Vulcan, Sauron, Crimson Cowl, Fixer, Mach 1 (though more of a hero) Citizen V (yeah I know it's Baron Zemo but I want his Citizen V outfit), Halocaust, Pyro, and Avalanche. Give me all of those and the ones mentioned above and I'll never ask for another villain again, Hasbro.

Edit: I lied. I also want Ronan, Morgan Le Fay and Living Lazer, Blizzard, Stryfe, Satana, Sin and Emplate. Now I think I'm good. LOL End edit.

Sadly I know half or more of these will never be made. Spiral with and Annihilus with their really unique molds are probably the least likely, and well, they're not really going to put out a figure called Halocaust, are they? Though I was pleasantly surprised they are releasing Grim Reaper, I didn't think they'd even do that.

Have we gotten confirmation that we're getting a Guardians of the Galaxy line in this scale? I thought I saw something about it once but I can't find the article, and the only pictures I've seen are the 6" scale.

Hasbro is making a Guardians line in 3.75" scale, however they follow the recent poor decision by Hasbro of making only 5 POA, you can see pictures of these lame toys from ToyFair.

Edit: My mistake just checked Hasbro's solicits, the figures are 2.5"

ukmu · 03-03-2014, 03:26 PM

Baron von Strucker
Doc Ock
Ant-Man
Beast (proper)
Bishop
Annihilus
Ronan
Swordsman
Bishop
Kree army builder

there is my top ten.... That said, I wouldnt buy all ten. Just my opinion of 10 figures that NEED and LIKELY may be made. I tried to keep it on the straight and narrow and not vear off into some obscure figures. These are SOLID characters that have played major roles at different times.

Hi everyone! So, I went to TRU yesterday and I saw this MU Comic Series Black Widow (light-up base) figure (the only one out of 5 figs they had). It caught my eye and you'll see why. I've had the original one (straight red hair) for a while now but I didn't know there was a variant version of it. Did anyone know about this one? If so, are there other variants from this toy line?

It's pretty cool because the variant has orange hair and eyebrows (hope you can tell on the pics). Anyways, Here are the pics...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that isn't a variant. It appears somebody bought the figure and then head-swapped with that ugly new Mara Jade figure from Star Wars, probably because they thought the Black Widow head looked better (which I think does, the Mara Jade looks like David Bowie crossed with Carrot Top).

3233rafael · 03-03-2014, 04:13 PM

^ Yeah, maybe you're right but why would anybody leave it at ToysRUs? I purchased it there yesterday.

3233rafael · 03-03-2014, 04:18 PM

ukmu · 03-03-2014, 04:36 PM

ukmu · 03-03-2014, 04:38 PM

I love pics of of repacked swapped figures though...

Ok, but where's your proof that they were swapped?

kylactus · 03-03-2014, 05:50 PM

^is there a different stamped # on the back?

salsa4datass · 03-03-2014, 05:54 PM

sorry Rafael but I think they are correct on this one. many figs have been returned to stores swapped and repackaged. I recently found a ml carnage with a whole different figure in it and no it wasn't toxin. it's what the thieves do sometimes...

Sure, I'll return it if it's not the real deal. I don't buy customs. I just wish someone with proof could show me I'm wrong. Do you know who's face is it then?

This is the Mara Jade figure I was referring to. Thanks to Rebelscum for the picture, they have full galleries for those interested

kylactus · 03-03-2014, 06:08 PM

http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marve...p2056016.l4276I don't know? I wonder if the Mara Jade figure is produced in the same plant? maybe it was swapped in the plant? or someone might have don this as a "joke" or hell to see if it would get attention on a site like this. here's my favorite variant....

Your link takes me to a time warner cable page.

^ I mean, she looks horrible, lol but I just don't know. Maybe you're right and Hasbro used the wrong head at the time of packing.

3233rafael · 03-03-2014, 06:18 PM

^ Does that face belong to a star wars character? Does anybody know?
