New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

Jay West · 02-17-2016, 12:58 PM

So the 4 inch line for Civil War isn't horrible. Movie versions of Cap, Sharon, BP, and Falcon. A newish Iron Man - can't tell from the pics what the buck is. And then a Cap I don't need. Well better than nothing. Maybe if these just sell a little bit we will get an Infinity War line.

That Iron Man armor is a repaint of the Iron Man 2 Comic Series Wave 3 Advanced Armor figure (I'm pretty sure).

Il Cattivo · 02-17-2016, 01:14 PM

its actually a repaint of this ironman

kylactus · 02-17-2016, 01:14 PM

It looks like the AA cartoon figure....yeah that one...^^^*

Captain Nash · 02-17-2016, 01:18 PM

I guess I'm in the minority in thinking that Sharon Carter figure looks awful. But it's nice we're getting something for the line!

Excellent, I stand corrected. Well done, sir.

Seeking out what armor that is though has made me realize I'm missing several from the Iron Man 2 Concept Series from my collection. Bummer...

18 - Iron Man Ultimate Armor
19 - Munitions Armor War Machine
20 - Mark V Stealth Armor Iron Man
21 - Hot Zone Armor Iron Man
40 - Stark Racing Armor Iron Man

Universe · 02-17-2016, 01:35 PM

Has anyone seen the Captain America/Motorcycle and Falcon Civil War line in stores yet?

Sadly that iron man buck has a permanent "looking downward" neck ball.

Not the only one. I don't mind the reuse of the ScarJo Widow body or the colors, because it's accurate to the promotional material we've seen, but the likeness is weak compared to their other figures. Hasbro's done fairly well nailing down RDJ, Sam Jackson, Renner, ScarJo, and Hemsworth at this scale. Their Evans' likenesses were fair for the first go, awful for Winter Soldier, but he doesn't have a lot of character to his face. Emily VanCamp has enough character to her face that it doesn't have that excuse. The hair is sitting poorly and the eyes are particularly off for her. She looks more like Elizabeth Banks in a bad wig at the moment.

I'm missing some of those as well. wish I was collecting when that line came out. I would have bought every single one of the armors.

Yep. Despite being a Thor guy, I enjoy the heck out of buying all the crazy Iron Man armors (at this scale) I can find. I like building an Armory.

ukmu · 02-17-2016, 02:33 PM

Is the Sharron figure a new head on an AA Black Widow body with grey legs? Hard to tell from the dark photo.

Ninjinister · 02-17-2016, 02:46 PM

I thought someone said they'd at least seen the cycle pack Cap in stores. Could be mistaken.

What is 2 pack Cap from?

He's a reissue of the Ultimate Captain America; has NO torso atriculation and NO ankle joint. Very poor figures both the iron Man and captain America. You will know it once it's in your hands, atleast I did.

Cycle Cap's only shown up in the UK so far. 2 Pack Cap is a repainted Super Shield Captain America from the Avengers movie line.

Universe · 02-17-2016, 03:02 PM

After seeing Chefatron's review of it, the Cycle Cap is defintely the definitive Movie Cap because he is much taller than his predecessors. It also is lacking torso atriculation but still has a waist swivel and I can live with that.

Pilkster · 02-17-2016, 03:29 PM

Does anyone have any capes in their fodder bins up for trade?

Not sure about that Sharon Carter/Black Panther pack, but the Cap and Iron Man pack is a must for me! Mainly because the Marvel NOW armor is my favorite Iron Man armor(though this will probably go to my overflow shelf, rather than my main MU display). Don't get why they didn't reuse an Iron Man 2 mold like they did with the 6 inch version, though...

P.S. MAN! I leave for ONE DAY and I see this thread flooded with a doll argument!

Annnndddd the images didn't load.

Chefatron already reviewed it.

LordMudd · 02-17-2016, 05:23 PM

I have now seen the current wave at a Walmart. I have Captain Marvel, Panther, Yondu, Triton, and Ulik. I may get the Ironman. Any Spidey is such an easy pass that it has already disappeared over the horizon behind me, unless it is for a custom. I have the one from the Goblin box and that is enough. I really do want to see a better pic of that Kree soldier. Trying to figure out what to do with all of those extra CM's.

CCC.

Any capes in partiqular?

I'm so all over that Black Panther two pack set.
Now all we need is a Vision and Scarlet Witch one!

Well... Besides all the other cinematic universe characters yet to get covered.

After looking at some hi-res pics, Sharon's torso seems to be a new sculpt. (the coat's closed neckline, sculpted pockets, and the visible flaps of the coat)

clevelandhags · 02-17-2016, 07:14 PM

Cool, new sculpt for Sharon. BP looks awesome too. That set is going to be tough to find at first.

Well a new head at least, the body looks like movie Black Widow.

Yup. Quick rule of thumb, if he has those white lines on the face, then it's the movie version.
