That's because it is. It's from Fandral in the Thor movie line

I went to the ToyWiz store in Nanuet because, why not? I ended up getting the Marvel Select Ant-Man there for $25. But, I also saw this ridiculous price and I lol'd in public. It's kind of hard to see because it's blurry. The price is $16.99 for a 5 POA Captain America.

Black Panther, Blade, Brother Voodoo, and Luke Cage. I just named four awesome heroes who are black and aren't side-kicks. Also, Storm! War Machine kind of, many people view him as a side-kick though he isn't. Then we got Spectrum, Cloak, Goliath, and Misty Knight.

Thanks guys. Dormammu is a big beefy spicy bully, I think he may be over 7". I'll check when I get back home from skippers. Can't wait to get me some chowder...

This was the first year I wanted the legends set more than the MI/MU/legends 3.75" one. I picked up a MOTUC faceless one a while back and almost made a custom dormammu out of him. You could cast dormammus head and go that route, much cheaper.

See, back when I was a regular Marvel comics buyer Quasar was the epitome of the cosmic character. I find it really odd when Marvel is trying to re-create a cosmic mythos that he seems to be totally written out. He deserves a figure.

That loki caope looks like the warriors three blonde guy from the Thor movie line.

Jeeezzzus I need that cap head for a possible custom but never would that price come out of my pocket. I'd probly die of laughter in that store

Okay, that D-Man in the first pic is friggin' inspired. Makes me wish I had the parts to do that.

I also said Anti-Hero. With the exception of Storm & Black Panther my point still holds up. Kinda missing the point of my post though. I would rather have new instead of the race/gender swap crap they feed us now. Make something new & unique.

Lots of awesome stuff on the last page as well guys. Really wanted to pickup that Dormammu but HTS did not deem me worthy enough I guess. I've been seeing a MI Emma Frost with no cape going for under $6 on ebay. Speaking of ebay these sellers on here really chap my ass! I know how much it takes to ship a few figures. This $8-$11 shipping is BULLSHIT!

This one is a bit higher but they've been going cheap.

don't know if its the same everywhere else but where I live that cap figure's been really tough to find now for some reason. he used to be everywhere then suddenly disappeared just when I decided that I want one.

No I got the point and I agree that new characters would be better than redefining preexisting characters, Miles Morales' name might as well have been pandering-man, I was just throwing out some good characters that are black and not side-kicks. Still though every character I listed except for Blade would be just a hero and not an anti-hero, technically Blade isn't an anti-hero either since he fights to save the normal people from evil vampires and doesn't run around killing normal people. Anti-heroes by definition lack morality, courage, or other defining heroic traits. Guys like Punisher or Deadpool who lack morals and kill without hesitation are anti-heroes, not family man Luke Cage or defender of the deceased Brother Voodoo.

I literally need the head just to see how it looks on a winter soldier cap body but I can't find the bastard anywhere. I guess toywiz bought them all and now if you want him you have to pay.
