If it helps give you a time frame on shipping from Australia; mine shipped from Oz on the 19th, was scanned into an international sort facility in LA on the 24th, and didn't arrive in Ohio till the 4th.

He said he sent it out around the same time as that, and I'm still waiting. Based on my previous luck with international post, I think I should be getting it sometime around Christmas.

The only reason why I bought Mojo.

There is a slight difference with Wolverine in this pack. They gave him hair on his arms.

Rage Mode

So glad to finally have Rogue. Been on the want list for forever. My fav out of the pack.

Remember this scene from X-Men

Congrats on completing your set up sym,i LOLLED hard at the MK reference,because i had just been watching Those alternate Bane outakes from "Dark Knight Rises" XD

I'm jealous.

I hated the cartoon as a kid. Going through puberty I was just coming into my geekhood, so I hated it because it was "nothing like the books".

Throw Colossus, Psylocke, Iceman, and Archangel in there. And customize a Bishop.

Iceman · 02-07-2013, 11:33 AM

Picked this up at the post office today.

Ya, although she is in the 3 pack, but then again the Thing has his own SC, but then they didn't put the Torch in that pack, it is pretty weird how Hasbro does these team packs.

The only bonafide 3.75" FF team comes in the form of "Showdown",but the sue storm from that line is terrible,looks like an 3 75" inflatable doll

yeah hasbro have been a bit erratic when it comes to marvel teams,but who knows what they may have in store for us at the upcoming toy fairs of 2013.

JanSolo · 02-07-2013, 04:15 PM

Well the translucent flame on Torch works pretty well with the H.E.R.B.I.E. pack. They released both dark blue/white and light blue/black of all the male members, but only one non-Future Foundation Sue. They need at least two more types of Sue.

While I'm thinking about it a FF She-Hulk would be nice as well.

rea1180 · 02-07-2013, 06:30 PM

Still looking for the two newest waves and three packs, no luck there, but I did finally turn up a FF pack with clear Sue. Didn't think it would worth thirty bucks just for her but it was.

I love that set, I just wish they gave Reed long sleeves, so i wouldn't feel like i was paying 30$ for one figure

Reed needed some long, stretched out arms to snap on, maybe one with a hammer fist.

The new reed minimate comes with an ultimate nullifer that I think will be in scale to MU.

This cartoon was part of my sat morning cartoons. Its what got me into reading comics.

I plan to add those characters too. I wanted to have one with just these ones first.

Yeah she got beat with the ugly stick. Pretty bad mold. That variant half phasing one is pretty high up there. I haven't seen anybody do a head swap with the mu head. Can someone take a pic who has the figures?

they released a half phasing variant sue?like the variant night-crawler with a translucent arm and leg???
didnt lord marvel work up a custom combining the 3 pack sues,or was that somebody else im thinking of?

JanSolo · 02-07-2013, 08:12 PM

I would so buy a Invisible Woman 3 pack of solid, half and full translucent maybe throw a Franklin in there as a mini fig.

Ninjinister · 02-07-2013, 08:43 PM

I did a Phasing Sue because it turned out (at least as far as I know) that the one that there was a picture of was a fake.

Phasing Invisible Woman Custom Action Figure

mikefavata · 02-07-2013, 09:00 PM

I use Secret Wars Torch with the Fantastic Four 3 pack. For whatever reason i'm not a fan of the Flame on one.

MADREVJACK · 02-07-2013, 09:17 PM
