New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

It's certainly possible.

Another idea is that BBTS doesn't want to sell Cloak and Dagger separately and considers them one item.

Though I will say it will be very interesting to see how Hasbro pulls it off if they are indeed sold together on the same card.

They will be two separately packaged figures, whether they are each 1 per case or work like the not-so-well-executed-thus-far ROML running changes, we may find out at SDCC(but probably only if someone asks).

They are doing the same with the two upcoming "Alpha Flight" figures.

1x A-Bomb
1x Abomination
2x Black & White Iron Man

Which would not be ideal, as I would prefer 2 of each new figure in the case.

I'm not sure if A-Bomb is still coming or not.

Which Alpha Flight figures?

I hope he's not. That A-Bomb figure looks awful and NOTHING like the comics. I would be furious if I ordered Abomination (which looks great) and got that blue rush-job.

The ones from Mr.Curto's list..I thought he posted it here also?

rwsharpjr · 07-16-2013, 09:03 AM

Looks like BBTS upsated the listings to show that C&D are "solicited as a twopack" and that Abomination "may ship as A-Bomb".

Hmmm. Packaging variations don't usually have different UPCs, so is it possible there is a variant of C&D?

Well, as definite as anything can be.

They could still be cancelled at Hasbro's whim.

Like the Hood/Punisher and Puck/Sasquatch comic packs.

Iceman · 07-16-2013, 09:37 AM

We better still get that Uncanny X-Men pack with Scott and Emma.

Also, how do you know C&D have two upc's?

Oh those ones. Duh.

Iceman-

Wouldn't it be awesome to get a giant Iceman like the one we've seen recently in Astonishing X-Men and Uncanny X-Force?

Andy Carruthers · 07-16-2013, 10:01 AM

What is exactly the story with A bomb? Is it Abomination before or after or something?

I am worried about that and the Asgardian pack with the Executioner also.
Target is clearancing them and TRU and walmart seem to be stuck with tons of GOTG sets.

I got a tip from someone.
One of the UPCs is x5356988951x.
Feel free to come back to this post once they are released:-)

Exodus · 07-16-2013, 10:43 AM

I may cancel my BBTS then on the 5 pack and wait for retail...

That would awesome or even an IceHulk. I know they are super long shots but you can't really make a custom of that stuff unless you are really really talented.

I feel like the Thor one was shown so recently that it is more safe. Even if stores ditch 2-packs and 3-packs completely I feel they will get us those figures somehow. An exclusive or single carded or something. I know the team packs and stuff tend to show up often with little warning. Sometimes even without any announcement beforehand. Sometimes clearance it just because they know new stuff is coming.

boombatty · 07-16-2013, 12:55 PM

Aw heck I would be happy it they re-release some of the Marvel Legends stuff in the 3 3/4 inch scale. I don't care if it isn't as articulated at this point. I just want my Thunderbolts pack in 3.75.

bmorr · 07-16-2013, 03:48 PM

I just wanna say how well built and articulated the new rhino is. He can do power rangers stances for petes sake thanks to those rocker ankles of his. Andit the first figure in a long time where im not worring about snapping off a limn. Cap is awesome too. Still waiting on elektra(coming in the mail) and Mysterio.

snake5289 · 07-16-2013, 03:50 PM

I hope Abomination is that awesome.

I gave them a quick look on google to remind myself what they looked like. Abomb and Abomination seem to use the rhino body anyways so your in luck there.

snake5289 · 07-16-2013, 05:19 PM

Good to know. I was hoping they used the Rhino body.

Eh, don't think this will get too crazy, it's three char that have had releases, so I don't think it's really a good idea
