Thanks that seems about my range... I mean if I remember right these sets were selling for like 10 pounds in the UK but I haven't even come close to snagging one.

No clue on that. I only use it for the in store look up. Not for the online ordering.

Usually if it says the stores have it in stock, then you can drive to the store and buy it there from whichever had it in stock without actually placing an order.

between 10 and 20 in the UK a few years back,kernel.but its not like stores where flush with them,only a few made it to the shelves and not every one in the uk found them.completionists go nuts for a complete set.only thing i noticed with ninjinisters set is that the black widow guns are not the ones that come with.

Contessa Valentina Allegra De Fontaine.
I thought the Crystal Skull Spalko head was a good enough for the Italian/Russian Contessa, but right now she's on the body for May while UKMU does her eyes, so I need another Widow base. With the White Fury head also from UKMU, I just need Vort Dugan, a couple of cartoon Fury's, and Howard & Peggy, to round out my WW2/60s SHIELD Agents.

I went the lazy route for a agent may head. I used a gijoe movie baroness head on a fisrt avengers mmovie black widow body. Looks just about perfect in my eyes for now.

I do not like the description of Marvel Hasbro SDDC event AT ALL:

Adam Biehl (VP, Global Marvel Line, Hasbro), Jesse Falcon (director of Hardlines, Marvel), Dwight Stall (senior Marvel product design manager, Hasbro), Bobby Vala (Marvel product designer, Hasbro), Maalvika Mantripragada (director, Marvel Brands, Hasbro) and Michael Breslin (senior director, Global Marvel Fan Line, Hasbro) discuss Hasbro's popular Marvel LEGENDS action figure lines. Attendees will also get a sneak peek of upcoming Marvel action figures.

Compare the description to the last year:

Adam Biehl (vice president, Global Marvel Line at Hasbro), Jesse Falcon (director of hardlines, Marvel), Dwight Stall (senior Marvel product design manager, Hasbro), Bobby Vala (Marvel product designer, Hasbro), and Laura Guilbault (senior manager, Global Marvel Line at Hasbro) discuss Hasbro's popular Marvel action figure lines. Attendees will also get a sneak peek at upcoming action figures. Adam, Jesse, Dwight, Bobby, and Laura will also host a Q&A for your burning Marvel action figure questions!

Can you spot the difference?

[K Dubious]

Again I bring up the question;

Will the huge 3.75 diorama still be there?

Obviously Dwight Stall couldn't care less about Marvel Infinite, but I don't like the sound of "discuss Hasbro's popular Marvel LEGENDS action figure lines" at all.

We'll end up in a DOFP situation, someone will assassinate Stall, and they'll hunt down and kill all 3.75 collectors X'D

Even if it is there it will not be as good as when Vonner was running the show. Hopefully we see some cool 4" stuff but I get the same feeling from Dwight.

Small Rant....
When I was a kid Transformers, GI Joe, Star Wars and He-man ruled the universe or at least my bedroom. Now I would go into the store with a game plan...which figure did i need or want right now depending on what story line was going on in my little head. I would get to the figure isle look over the goodies and pic two..thats when my scheme would kick into gear...I would hold two joes and stare at them one in each hand and go hmmmmmmm same with star wars...and sometimes with he-man...i would look perplexed and my parents would say whats wrong...i would give a long pause...and say i m not sure which i want..i like both..at this point after a few minutes of me standing there not sure *wink wink* they would say get both and lets go ! But you know what toy it didn't work with....tranformers..those damn cybertronians cost to damn much ! i wasn't jedi mind tricking my parents into spending $40 bucks on sunstreak and ironhide, no matter how long i stood there. I would take the trash out and get $4 for it, guess what i did , yep right to the store to buy the next joe ! and eventually optimus and his crew became extinct in my room. My point to this rant..is i go into stores now and i see legends clogging the shelf collecting dust...and if there are any mu/mi around its the ones we expect to be there caps, iron man etc..reason parents don't want to pay $20 or more for one damn figure that by time they get home may have already lost a part. As a parent i feel better if i spent $40 on a arm full of figures or a big vehicle that they can use with all there stuff than two damn figures....i don't understand the thought process of hasbro at all. right now GI Joe has invaded my home and is waging war with hydra and cobra..why...cause they are all about the same size and can be used together !!! i think i saw hawkeye flirting with lady j a bout a hour ago...but you all get my point. i so hope that we get some new stuff worth paying for from this con if not....me and my son collecting MU might go the way that Optimus did so many years ago.....

First thing I did after seeing Avengers was go out and buy an Iron Man, Thor, & Spider-Man. To go with Obi-Wan, Snake Eyes, Captain Jack, Gandalf, & my Big Millenium Falcon as their base.

Ha ha I remember picking up Bonecrusher when I was like 9 and there was no way I could get the rest of Devastator... I gave away all of my transformers to my nephew who is like 10 and he just destroyed them last time I went over there, almost all of the MU/Transformers I've given him wind up in a scrap heap with limbs etc. missing... but now I really want that new Devestator. Yeah I think as a parent of a 3 and 5 year old that it's much harder for them to convince me to get a $20+ figure than a $10-$13 figure, so I think that Hasbro is making a big mistake if they don't start throwing us some bones. The Legends are collecting dust here and the BAF thief here has forced my local TRU to put the new figs in a giant lock box that is impossible to steal.

Back on the quick DOFP discussion, did anyone else notice that future Logan remembered what younger him did in the 70s prior to the adamantium bonding and 'memory erasing' adamantium bullet?

Didn't mean to get off topic about figures, but that stuck out to me as a "Hey wait-a-minute, that implies he gets all his memories back later of what happened to him in the past before the time shift." It makes me wonder what stories are there in the ten years between The Wolverine and DOFP's apocalyptic future.

[snake5289]

Ant-Man came in and he's awesome but does feel kind of cheap. Especially the ant. And after looking at some pics of his suit in the movie they missed a lot of details (mainly silver bits). I tried my best to fix them.

And here he is with my Ultron made from an IM2 MKII armor because why not?

[deathofthelines]

Replaced my broke valkriey and also picked up a legends mcu ant man to put next to the mi sized one. I guess he can be the ant man that grow to giant sizes as well.

You know, I watched DOFP yesterday, and when he said he'd slept with that girl many times I too thought how did he remember that? I guess we'll never know.

[kylactus]

she was that good.

Oh man, just popped by after a while and saw my team pic up here. Awesome!
