I think it would be cool if they repacked characters with insanely high secondary market prices. Sometimes it seems like they do the opposite and repack characters that could be found at discount stores. It just seems like it would be a good business practice to sell figures that go way up in value. I'm thinking figures from other lines like carnage, antivenom, green mandarin, fin fang foom and expensive ones like vision or ms marvel.

I need that cape for my Drax custom, and the head for Banshee, Crimson Commando, and 1 other I can't remember off the top of my head. That Widow is also good for customs, and the Bucky/Patriot buck is the only kid size buck marvel has done for guys. X-23 is good for the girls.

I really want a repack of Dr. Doom. Villains are still fairly scarce and I missed out on both previous options for the guy and I don't care for the FF Doom.

Nice head. I used Doom as the base for my Nathan Garrett Black Knight.

I was lucky enough to get the secret wars 3 pack doom, single carded, SHS, and FF 2 pack doom. I like all of them and I feel like the FF doom could be a good secret wars 2 repack.

He looks different though in the new Secret Wars. He doesn't have any cloth covering his torso and overall he looks more like Doom-2099.

Besides, if anything, only the paint schemes are "exclusive." Light up base Black Panther was a TRU exclusive, yet here he is again in the main line with a slight paint modification. Storm was a 35th anniversary TRU exclusive until released as a single card with minor cosmetic changes. Baron Zemo was also reissued with a minor change.

As for the X-Men "embargo," Bishop, Colossonaut, two versions of Beast, Northstar, Deadpool (in X-Men uniform no less), and Emma Frost were all in the past year.

Rather than trying to poo-poo my list, why not offer you own list instead?

I'm no contrarian, I'm a realist. I'll explain how your choices will never come about, based on what's happened thus far. When someone says "Oh I reckon we'll get a fully articulated line for Civil War with every character in the film, plus every unreleased MCU character so far, despite the fact we haven't had a like like that since 2012" then I take them down a peg and tell them to not be so stupid.
As it happens I'd completely forgotten about those X-figures we just got, but if they didn't release a Quicksilver for Ultron, they're not releasing him just because.
You're comment about Wasp was just pure wrong, so there's that, and the Cage and Widows were employee exclusives, yes. You proved my argument; Storm, Panther, and Zemo sold looking different to their exclusives. Just as Cage and the Widows were sold different to their exclusives. Hence, we're not getting white shirt or blonde or short haired.

I don't believe we should get a load of rereleases. They've been sold once, you didn't get them the first time, that's tough. Stores, eBay, Amazon, no reason for you not to get them first time round. If you weren't collecting then, that's a shame, good luck to you.

Hasbro sees your comment and silently laughs.

Seriously I am glad that we're getting some new figures in these upcoming waves regardless of weaker articulation.

They were NOT "exclusives". They were samples given out. They were going to to be at retail but for some reason or another they were canceled.

There been laughing since at least 1983. Possibly longer but definitely since the birth of 3 3/4 gijoe figures.

I want a reissue of MU Blade.

[3233rafael]

Glossy and matte BP...

[Psycho Pirate]

Ah, right. But that isn't the LUB version. I like that one, though.

[sh002]

Even though I still have TRU light up base and Target 2 pack Black Panthers, I regret selling the Marvel Universe version.

Happy New Years, folks! My long awaited Japanese arrival; Movie series Revo Ultron in a lineup for people's interest in scale:

Which MU Spiderman figure with the classic costume would you guys say has the biggest buck?

Thanks for the pics universe! Looks great, I picked up the legends wasp (since I can argue she can be in giant mode and fit in with my MU stuff) as it was on clearance for $9 and now that I have ultrons torso I'm not sure if i should hunt the rest down for the ultron baf to just go with the revoltech ultron (which looks better scaled from your pics).

[LordMudd]

I got the Giantman for the same reason, if you need a leg up?

Probably the one from the Captain Britain comic pack, it's still only on the Ice Man sized "athletic" buck but we didn't get many toys of the classic Spidey costume that weren't on the original less good Spidey buck. Plus the CapBrit comic pack Spidey has slightly smaller eyes which look like they'll work for the ANAD costume and he has the best pose of any classic Spidey.

Hey guys wanted to say happy new years and hope everyone had a great holidays

Thanks SOO much for the photos. Thank God I didn't pull the trigger on him. Way to big. I'll be waiting for the Revomini.

[MUfan97]

Okay, question I've been procrastinating on asking for whatever reason: Is my Daredevil the only one that has the sticks get stuck in the holster when I try to put them both in? I'm thinking of modifying the holster, but is there any quick fix I can try before I take such a measure?
