A 4.5" suited figure would be awesome, but it would I think have to come from a caster. There are no lines that would have a figure that size. Unless I am forgetting something.

Dang I didn't realize these were TRU packs totally awesome, has that IM suit been done before though? Looks familiar, starting to lose track. Although I may get that pack, def getting the Sharon Carter one. How many other 2 packs exclusives including are coming out?

It is a repaint of the Avengers Assemble Iron Man.

There are a couple Guardians of the Galaxy sets coming out.

Thanks, that might work for the custom I have planned. Will give the character another look.

Ugh, that thing is a piece of crap. But for those of you that do want it, it's $7 something on HTS.

Thanks I knew about the GOG set...

And our favorite hairy mutant has shown himself.

I got my Gamora, I like her way more in person than I thought I would. Id love to get a few more for customs but shes too damn pricey right now.

Also ordered the new Scarlet Spidey and Armoured Spidey - not crazy about either of those but I need em for my Spider-Verse dammit. :P

Some bozo at hasbro tried to reinvent the wheel and failed miserably.

Maybe you'll get lucky and she'll get cheap on Amazon or something. Some of wave 1 are already dropping to pretty decent prices.

I mainly want armored Spidey because I remember him from the 90's cartoon. You know, the episodes that were kinda Spider-verse but kinda not?

Universe · 04-25-2016, 10:29 PM

That's three Spidey's on that craptastic buck. Come on Hasbro; LISTEN!!

ukmu · 04-25-2016, 10:45 PM

Captain America 3: Civil War comes out Thursday!!!!!! (UK)

Waiting until Friday when I am surprising my son with an early pickup from school to go and see after having lunch at his favourite place, Yo Sushi.

Why would they? Apparently the craptastic buck tested well and sells well if not they'd have done up another one.

Universe · 04-26-2016, 07:37 AM

I think they sell well because the line has been starved to the brink and we want figures! Big box stores are starting to learn this because the last wave is more prevalent than before as they would skip waves altogether in the past.

I ordered a couple from China at a high cost for a loose figure. However 1 month passed and no sign of them. Seller is going to ship 2 more tomorrow. Let's see if I receive those. Wouldn't be surprised if I end up receiving 4. They use that Yawen service now which sucks. Last year in October I bought a cell phone cover which was shipped using this service. I ended up receiving 2 because the first one never showed. Seller sent a second one in December which arrived in January and a few weeks later the October one arrived also.

Its not that itsold well its that hasbro is cheap. They give us less charge us more and yet many still pay it.

i wont pay over 10 bucks and thats only for characters i want. With reduced artic ( we can cite hasbro excuses all say long bottom line they are cheap )and over 10 bucks is just flat out gouging.

What about a midget wrestler for WWE or something. I found some pictures of Hornswoggle in a suit. He is even kind of bulky compared to MU which would also be good for Kingpin.

Or if you are looking for a slimmer build there are a couple Revol-mini figures that are 12.5 cm tall

I didn't know that. I'll keep that in mind and refrain from using it in the future. Thanks.
