I was waiting (patiently) for that! Set up another shot for my weekend Photobomb... by bomb, I mean like two. Two pics. Three if we are lucky...

MUfan97 · 05-10-2016, 12:32 PM

Just a random thought. I saw a thread a little while back about how someone had added articulation to the Star Wars Rebels 5 POA figures. Anyone tried that on that Ultimate Spider-man Arnim Zola?

Grippen · 05-10-2016, 01:53 PM

Seems like the guy that had the BP & A13 pack had in fact 2 and both sold on ebay. Found the link minutes ago. He sold the second one on May 5th.

Marvel Legends Civil War 3 75" Black Panther Agent 13 Toys R US Unreleased | eBay

He is from Astoria, NY by the way. Someone from that area time to hit TRUs stores.

He has another for sale for $80.

cobralord · 05-10-2016, 03:31 PM

It says unreleased. So BP/A13 set hasn't been released yet. Seller must have took it from warehouse. Better to wait till it shows up at retail than pay $80 for it.

Grippen · 05-10-2016, 04:13 PM

Ye posted after I messaged him I guess. But $80 is crazy. I wonder how he got his hands on this. He must have a complete case or so.

Yep. I'll wait until I see it at retail and I'll pick one up for $13 -$20.

So why in tarnation are we (supposed to be) getting a black and gold Avengers Assemble repaint IM instead of an actual one used in the movie?

Same reason they packed him in with a reissue of a bad articulated Captain America:

To keep pegs warm.

snake5289 · 05-11-2016, 12:21 AM

They could've at least packed in a Civil War Cap'n but I guess that'd cost too much or something. I mean it's not like they've got one already made or anything...oh wait.

For those of you that live in NY and are interested in the BP&A13 set I can share some more info on it. I managed to swap a few messages with the guy on ebay. He told me he got them from a small shop where he buys things frequently and has connections overseas. So my assumption is that is was somehow "hijacked" in China or already in US. So forget TRUs best option is to check small toy or comic stores in the area. Off course he may have bought all of the available ones or he is running a deal with the owner where he sells them on ebay for him and has a share of the profit. Meanwhile the other dual set Cap&IM also showed up on ebay again, different seller and location from what I could tell. So these may be in the "black market" already, I just hope this doesn't mean that they will never hit TRUs.

OK I know where he got it. There are some of those shops in Chinatown in New York. I've heard of them before.
They usually get things before regular retail.

They could have also hijacked a box from the docks, heard of stories like that...
