Other languages have two letter names that aren't short for anything else, but that's not what we're lookin' at here. Either way the 'K' is there for phonetic reasons, but it still looks at me funny and calls me names. I won't be getting this Doctor octopus toy though since I still disagree with the legs they chose to give him relative to that body. Luke Cage/Absorbing Man/Drax legs on a fat body with Dr Strange/Kang arms doesn't sit well with me.

Whenever I hear Doc Ock, I just think of JK Simmons saying it and making quotation signs with his hands, haha. I agree with you on the legs though, but from their viewpoint, there's not a lot of other characters they could use short stocky legs for (Mole Man, maybe, but since no one's allowed to make FF merchandise right now, I see no other re-use) Personally, since half the MU infinite figures so far have been repacks, I feel like they could afford it!

He's all I want from that wave. So that'd work for me if you want to send him my way.

I have the rest of my MU I need to get rid of. $40 shipped PM me.

Very bummed the Northstar is not going to be making an appearance in wave 2. He was the one I was looking forward to the most. At this point I can't tell if Hasbro is teasing, trolling or just doesn't know what it wants to do. How freaking hard is it to really get this figure produced?

The rest, I'll wait on til they go below $15 on Amazon. Not a single one was on my high priority list.

Oh well, more money later for Legends and MI Wave 3 I mean just Emma Frost. And if they continue to troll us like I feel they have the last year or two, this may well be my last year in this or both lines.

I need a sword and belt for the EMH look Baron von Strucker. Does that red Cobra Commander come with one?

Samsson, look at "Playmobil King" or "Playmobil Crown" on Google and you may just find it. Also, it may be weird but hear me out. A small length of brass plumbing might do it. Trim it down to the shape while leaving the pointy bits and use a small metal file to take off the burrs. Could do the job if you can't find plastic to suit you.

I hear you Capn'.... they are just messing with people now. North star is top 5 of a lot people's lists. I could care less about him but to each there own. I get it, he has been teased more than any toy in history!!! Two different toy lines and a couple different wages now. It is the second bloody time he has been featured on the card and still not released. It is easier o find a gay Canadian in Rio than find one front m Hasbro!!!

Also, it is funny reading through people's wants. Most are saying just one or two figures but everyone's one or two are different. Got to get Doc or no way am I getting Doc, or VuLture is an easy pass to Vulture is the must own. Seems more varied now more than ever.... I am getting just Shanna for Madame Hydra head and Moondragon body and a Vulture for his head to be my new Baron von Strucker.

I think that's my annoyance on Northstar is exactly that, this is round number two for him to just go MIA. I don't get it.

I will eventually get Vulture, Doc Ock and two Shannas, with the second being for the exact same purpose as yours. The first time I saw her head/hair I immediately thought "Madame Hydra" (or as I refer to her, Viper). It's quite possible I may even buy an Emma Frost for the body (that would make me need about 7-8 Emmas at this point. )

The Cobra Commander comes with a belt like that, but it's gold and the holster and sheath are on the opposite sides.
Is anyone actually buying these guys as their characters or just for custom fodder??

[UrsaMagnus]

I'm getting them for the actual toys. Though I admit I plan on swapping the Thunderstrike head, vest, belt and mace onto a better body.

[samsson37]

I'll put up a pic of strucker with the belt on when I get home. Its the family dollar blue cobra hooded commander.
Iam getting Shanna for Viper ( by the way anyone want the body I'll go half on a chinabay)
And grabbing the Vulture to finish the sinister six

EDIT/UPDATE

Here ya go UKMU ....

[ukmu]

Now that is hot!!!

[jedirulz123]

I gave that sheath and holster belt to Zemo, but that body went to Strucker

[jedirulz123]

Just about to land myself an incredibly cheap Quicksilver & Scarlet Witch, $25 both, from Nexodusrex.
Also: Taskmaster to add to my Cabal, Leader, A-Bomb to finish my Agents of SMASH, Black Panther to add to my Avengers, the Brown costume Wolverine from the Origins line to update Daken, & a Punisher to go towards the Thunderbolts.
He sells em off cheap, get em while they're hot!

From eBay and Vortious I'm nabbing myself the parts to build Peggy Carter, Sinthea Schmidt, a couple of the old 6" Incredible Hulk movie Hulks for a bigger, better version of Green & Red, Ward & May from Agents of SHIELD, The Hood (also for my Cabal), the GI Joe BAT for that excellent Arnim Zola recipe from samsson, a GI Joe Retaliation Lady Jaye for an MCU Mockingbird (they're the same actress), a head and helmet for Ares & Doom, & an Infinity Gauntlet.

I'll post the relevant pics when they all arrive, but one of the Hulks & the Peggy base should be here by next week.

[Kernel]

^ Taskmaster is one of my all time favorite MU figures...too bad he is so HTF. I picked up one of those bats now I just need to find a cheapo minimates Zola, also have some Vortious stuff I gotta finish up. U gotta post pics when you are done.

[jedirulz123]

He's giving me Taskmaster for $20! I'm practically robbing him.

I'll make sure to post em as they come

[samsson37]

I'm loving all the Zola talk !! If anyone has a spare drill or claw arm..plz let me know the one I got didn't have the extra hands

[Captain Nash]

Wave 2 is up as a case on Amazon - $99 for the six figures with a ship date of July 31st. Given my minimal interest in this wave now and the fact it's shipping nearly four months out, I'll definitely be passing on this particular set. Hopefully we will see the singles show up on Amazon in the next month for less. If not, well, this may be a wave I just hope for the best at retail as none of the figures in the wave are ones I "can't wait to have".

Amazon link: Amazon.com: Marvel Infinite Armored Daredevil, Vulture, Thunderstrike, Ultimate Spiderman, Doc Ock and Shanna Action Figures Wave 6 Set of 6: Toys & Games

[Kernel]

^ Im gonna try my best to wait for the new wave at retail or cheap online.

Thanks guys. I think my supervisor hates me for missing work lol.

Also noticed shanna is up for review on a blog where you can "come see toys". I think ill switch sue storms head on her so she will have both eyes.

[Colonel Bludd]

That is from an outside seller via amazon so i expect the price to be over the top for no reason. I only care about 3 of them so Its an easy wait.

she'd actually make a pretty good Sue Storm. Am I crazy or does Shanna really look nothing like her comic counterpart

[jedirulz123]

From that picture they should have given her the She Hulk hair, and the bloody bare feet for Tigra aswell

[ukmu]

just packed my lunch and will wait right here for some Tigra feet.....

As much as I want her in her traditional duds ....I could see a lot of trouble coming with it...we all remember the Lady Death figures from the 90's right...or better yet the commando Angela.....lmao oooh the 90's
UKMU....I thought throwback pics were done on Thursday...speaking of what happened to Marvel team-up Tues ?????

[jedirulz123]

Just had a thought, does anyone think that the Shulks are too small? Compared to my Legends stand in Hulks and my movie Abomination they just don't have the height to them. They're only just slightly taller than the regular she-body and about the same height as the Wonder Man & the Ares buck.
I don't know, it just seems like the legends She Hulk was the right height for her scale, and the MU one is not.
