And Spider-Man Noir is an old buck as well. SDCC WWII Ultimate Cap/First Avenger Battlefield Cap.

Now I remember why I bought 2 winter soldier caps. Thanks. I've had this extra cap sitting trying to remember why I bought him.

Finally found Big Hero 6 Yokai so the only one I need left for this scale of the line is Honey Lemon... unless there's a fourth Baymax I didn't know about.

I've only seen honey lemon in Disney stores. Good luck and far as I know in the 4 inch figs there are only 3 baymax.

I guess I'll say it "More Caps, Thors, Spider-man, and Ironmans."

... kinda

Well it looks like Marvel is working with them to get out current looks of characters. I appreciate a mix of characters at the least we got Thor-her, Vance Astro, Noir Spider-man (I don't get too upset with the different Spider-man figures)and cap Falcon which are spins of the classic characters played by other characters if that make sense.

We are 2 Inhumans and Lockjaw away from the classic Royal Family,

Another Thor Villain - not mad about that.

Machine Man finally

New Captain Marvel - knew it was a matter of time.

I hope this is the tip of the iceberg.

By Durin, you've been here 6 years. That's the time of Wolverine Origins, Armoured Avengers, & the very beginnings of MU. You're older than all of us on this thread, older than any 2 combined.

Also, does this count as a Jane Foster figure?

Can't complain. Just hoping we get some good news about mu/mi. Are they going take it up notch or continue the slow release of figures.

Those two person stands are the big mold stands, so that also might bode well for more reveals coming up if they grabbed the wrong stands for those figures during setup.

Kinda wondering if we saw all their accessories too. Captain Marvel with a masked head you'd think might be an easy one or future variant. Can't see if Sam Cap has his wings. Noir spidey is missing his hat. Machine Man you'd think would have normal arms too for a swap arm gimmick like what the GI Joe BATS use. Even Superior Iron Man typically has a Tony Stark face.

Makes me excited that we might see more still, and that they might have some surprises for later in the wings still to do!

thanks snowflakian,good line up as far as infinite is concerned,looks like we got some figures that have not appeared in legends form yet.cool thing about machine man is that now all those useless ironman series accessories have a purpose.

[Ninjinister]

I haven't seen the AoU Falcon/Hawkeye two-pack at TRU or its site yet. Has anybody acquired it? I think I've asked before, but I dodn't recall seeing an answer; what are the differences, if any, between those two and previously released versions?

[Kernel]

I hope we get an agent venom soon, and a proper MI venom like the legends just showed.

About even really.

The old buck was the swivel elbows and knees. The second old buck had bicep swivel and no leg swivel. The line has always varied on articulation across the board. The first Captain america figure, black panther, and even Ultron/Dr. Doom all had various degrees of articulation different from each other. There has never been one standard buck of articulation they use.

Then the third buck generation had too many swivels. We really didn't need shin swivel when it had the rotate foot and thigh swivel.

If the cost cutting is working to provide more unique tooling though. Is the trade off worth it? To me it is. We may lose wrist swivels, and occasionally torso swivel, but we're getting complete newly tooled parts that are more character specific in the details. Sam Wilson Cap and Lady Thor look like almost complete new molds entirely. Machine man looks like he uses the older human torch buck. So that makes me curious on his arms. Superior Ironman looks like a new chest unibeam and has a new head.

So while some toolings are completely original, they are still finding unique ways to mix up and reuse older too. This is giving us a diverse line-up and providing the fodder that retailers want. Retailers want the big names. They want Cap, Thor, Wolverine, and Spider-man. Hasbro and Marvel are using that to their advantage though. We are getting Cap, Thor, Spider-man and the much beloved new Captain Marvel, but we're getting them in more diverse ways now. Sam Wilson cap is still a captain america on shelves for retailers. Lady Thor is still a Thor on shelves for retailers. Noir Spider-man is still spider-man. Hasbro and Marvel are playing the retailer game, but doing so on their terms to provide a diverse selection.

This is a great way to appease fans and keep major retailers ordering cases.

As more Marvel movies come out and the exposure increases to what major retailers want, we might start seeing larger expansions. Other names will be added to that list like Black Panther and more. Personally I can't wait until we see a Shuri Black Panther in the line and her eventual White Tiger mold reuse.

[Ninjinister]

Sheeit. Considering the whole thing's brand new for $20 in stores I was hoping to score a couple of cheap movie Infinite Ant-Men (Ant-Mans?) for customs. $14.99's really the cheapest? Redonk.

Agent Venom is is every scale, but 4 inch. I was hoping he would at least get a 4 inch 5 POA figure so I could get some official parts and customize a Semi legit 4 inch figure, my only fear is that Flash no longer wears the Agent Venom look in the comics. He is getting his own comic with a more space armor look. It's cool, but not near as cool as Agent Venom.

Edit: I was even excited when at Toyfair they showed the Agent Venom on the four wheeler toy. I was going to get that and take the driver and try and make a 4 inch Agent Venom and Hasbro had to make it a special 6 inch scale four wheeler toy when those stupid things have been 1/18th for years. Stupid Hasbro.

The fact that Hasbro is saying they will be on HTS the 28th means no one needs to even think about paying scalp prices until then. A lot of people will mob the site and hopefully most people that want them will be able to get them (as long as Hasbro sets limits like 1 or 2 per address). THEN people consider overpaying.

I hope it's like last year's set and doesn't actually sell out for days.

Yeah I'm kind of like meh too. I mean I'll try and get one but if I don't I'm not gonna lose any sleep, I'll just snag the legends 6" giant man. I would almost rather get the legends set for dormamu and hela.
