Wow, that was a great deal! I've had my eye on it for awhile. It looks great with the Thor figures in your display.

Whoa, that Shield command center is awesome!

Yeah I like the spiked hair look too. Same look as in marvel vs capcom 2. But I do like this one better than the xmo one imo.

Lol. How goes the weather out there? I'd probably be doing the same thing if I was stuck at home during a blizzard.

PROVOST · 02-08-2013, 11:39 PM

Was bored so opened up this IM2 War Machine,nice figure:

MADREVJACK · 02-09-2013, 04:15 AM

The weather is bad, but we are still on the grid so I can't complain!

MeLikeJinx · 02-09-2013, 07:02 AM

I finally found the new MU Hulk today... he was all alone at Target amongst a sea of MU Gladiators and Doc Sampsons. LOL. I tried for the longest time to make due with my WWH as my default Avenger line-up Hulk, but alas... I don't got to do that anymore.

At this point I would even accept a MU Modern Havok headsculpt repaint on some future Gambit fig since Hasbro is a bunch of cheapos. LOL.

I never played any Marvel vs. Capcom game though... for me Gambit is all about kissing Rogue: http://goodcomics.comicbookresources...egreatest8.jpg That is my default image of Gambit and I just can't imagine him doing that with long hair. LOL.

Things are getting better, but the drifts are insane. The news says we got 3ft+
There is 3 ft in my front yard and a freakin 5ft+ drift living in my back yard.
It looks like a cartoon there is so much snow!

Hell ya for new mu. Great to see those announcements at toy fair. I want to see close ups.

i'm glad they are continuing! but now i'm more hoping walmart decides this is a good line to invest in again since even the last two stores that had them no longer have sku's for them in their new resets...

Snowflakian · 02-09-2013, 03:55 PM

So far all the new is pretty win.

MU is looking great if a bit short. More hopefully are just in prototype stages. Finally rounds out a lot of my collection though. Just missing a few like Red She-hulk still and some other recent creations. Plus Deathshead would be nice to see already.

Avengers Assemble looks awesome. They reuse a lot of other molds with new heads. The 1:18th figures rock though. Definitely getting Falcon, Hawkeye, BW, and maybe Ironman. Can't wait to see what else is coming in this line. Perfect place to bolster MU out the wazzoo. Hope this doesn't replace MU, but if they keep the figures that awesome as the main 1:18th ones are and provide a lot of obscure variety. I'm fine with it.

Thor's line looks fantastic. Makes me wish I'd bought an Odin already.

All around. I'm happy... but my wallet isn't. xD

Can't wait to see more. All that looks like initial offerings. Should still have some stuff for other reveals and or prototypes.

So yeah definitely. The rumors of MU's demise were well-overexagerated. Instead we got another companion line to go with it, and they are AWESOME(and comic accurate)!

strongchad · 02-09-2013, 06:43 PM

Saw those picks of the Wolverine figs...articulation is junk. Probably won't be getting those though I am excited about the new MU

snake5289 · 02-09-2013, 06:46 PM

So disappointed with the smaller Wolverine line. So much for that.

On the other hand the MU X-Men team pack looks great. FINALLY getting an Emma figure.

I'mma get Silver Samurai to work on a Bishamon custom!

mikefavata · 02-09-2013, 07:20 PM

I'm relatively pleased with today's 3.75" announcements (MU & Avengers Assemble).

One question though, are Comic Packs cancelled? Nothing shown and there's nothing unreleased except for Ant-Man/Moon Knight. Maybe we'll get the Ant-Man pack and a surprise re-paint pack?

Iceman · 02-09-2013, 07:57 PM

I have a feeling Ant-Man is being held back for the movie to max sales. Who knows.

mikefavata · 02-09-2013, 08:09 PM

I'm starting to think that Cloak & Dagger is a comic pack. There's no tags that says it's part of a single carded wave.

redfox · 02-09-2013, 08:26 PM

I'd have thought Cloak and Dagger would be a comic pack, but the main page has them under wave 3 and 4 images.

conan050 · 02-09-2013, 09:14 PM

Damn all that new MU stuff looks awesome!!

Boba Fettuccini · 02-09-2013, 09:28 PM

Having seen what Hasbro was doing to IM3 and Star Wars Saga, I was really scared about Toy Fair. But that new Red Skull, comic Widow, and comic Hulk for the Avengers line are awesome, and my sister is wigging out about ther being a Cloak and Dagger coming down the line. I'm... not entirely forgiving Hasbro just yet, but they've made enough of a showing to prove that they'll still deserve some of my meager earnings this year.

This is my thought exactly. I could be more giddy and impressed, but what I've seen so far is acceptable as far as the hasbro offerings.

Ninjinister- you should also check out the pic of the new joe figure of Budo to help your Bishamon custom along when the time is right. Better articulation.

Jackieboy · 02-10-2013, 05:43 AM

Some excellent announcements at the toyfair,finally some Hulk villains

looks like they used the movie line skrull body for leader and does any one know if cloak and dagger will be a 2-pack?

Yeah my wallmarts suck when it comes to carry Marvel toys. It seems that they only invest in the movie line stuff.

I was going to do the same thing too. I would love to do more Darkstalker customs as it goes with MvC characters. The moment I saw the demon chest I knew it was perfect for Bishomon.

SDCC last year announced a lot of new comic packs so I'd wait until then. They also showed up rather quickly at retail within a couple of weeks of SDCC. I remember seeing the Future Foundation 2 packs shown at SDCC and found it at TRU two weeks later. We know that they're going to release Antman, its just a matter of when Hasbro, when?

klinton · 02-10-2013, 11:49 AM

The Toy Fair stuff looks amazing! I can't wait to finish up my Defenders with Val! I think she is probably the hilight of the figures shown.
