I'm hoping this 2 pack MCU plan is successful and makes it to Avengers Infinity War. I could see us getting 3-4 two packs for that movie alone.

Plus they could go back and do other figures that were left out like an articulated Vision, AoU Quicksilver, Drax, Gamora and so on and so forth.

Looks like the X-23 Wolverine wave is out at Target as well...on sale too.

Weird...They're not even available on the Target website for normal price...


Perhaps we have an AoU 5 POA figure situation where they were mistakingly put on clearance due to having a similar name to other figures on clearance? I'm pretty sure I remember that happening.

Thanks for passing along the word Exodus! You are the man! And $6.49 to boot! I feel like it's 2009 all over again.

I passed on lady Deadpool and spidey U.K. as the paint was very bad and they both had some serious derp.
Can't wait to crack open these new guys, I can't believe I'm actually excited to open another iron man, especially this anorexic variant... or is it GONAD iron man... ANAD iron man I meant.

[Pilkster]

Send you didn't pick any up for me at that price... tut Tut tut that terrible great finds dude! Lol

I don't know, I think this thing could do pretty well, I've yet to see Gamora on a peg. I bet this thing was super easy and cheap to make and will probably sell for 50 bucks. Hasbro will make a return on their investment.

Its just annoying that they have Guardians from all over the place. Bendis Gamora, Annihilation Groot, and the colours and designs from the Lanning series. I would have enjoyed the team in the Bendis armor, or in the classic versions of the characters, drax in cape, Gamora in the fishnets, Space-cop Starlord, Tree-God Groot and the green suit Rocket.

I know right? I mean they could have (and should have) easily added some little tweaks to make the set worth buying, like putting Gamora's head on a fishnet body, or adding cape AND gauntlets to Drax, or heck maybe add SOME VALUE to the set by putting in a mantis, angela, or adding an alternate Bug head to fit on the Star Lord body.

I've been beaten down so much by Hasbro I'd have even taken the Gamora figure repainted in team colors. Isn't it hard to fathom that when Gamora was on the polls for the fan choice figure that 3.75 ruled the Marvel toy aisle?

I will pm you later sir

[Jay West]

I don't mind the Maestro but I use 5 inch Hulks so he is way too small. Wish there was a way to give him longer legs.

In one of the recent Starlin books Gamora's armor was colored green and black and I thought it looked way better than the white and black with red highlights scheme.

[Jay West]

Now with 3.75 on its last leg, I doubt we get any major new body styles. So...I really like Gabby from Wolverine and Annie from Spider Man Renew your Vows. Any outside of the box options that I could use to make customs of those two?

HALO mini fig body. There is a perfectly coloured blue one of the Covenant (I think it's them anyway) figures. Cut off the head (infidel) and hand. Then remove leg where the "extra" bend is, the reverse knee joint. Then remove head, hands, feet and tail off MU Rocket. Add joints by whatever method you chose (several options and step by step guides on figurerealm) drill hole for the tail. Then a bit of apoxisculpt (or similar two part clay) for his wee little trouser cuff rolled up look and the "red thing" stripe on the uniform chest. Paint cuffs blue, paint stripe red.... fully articulated Rocket Racoon in matching team colours scheme.

Hey Jay.... try this option. The figure already stands 4.5" tall, so you find just half an inch.

I remember VORTIOUS does a "leg extension" kit. So the little piece from the hip socket to the thigh cut. If that were just 1/4" longer (either cast or with added apoxiscuplt) that would bring him to 4.75"

Then maybe, some sort of "below the shoes" extension. Very mild and subtle.though, not going for Gene Simmons, but just 1/4" or less. You could even raise his head off his body by 1/8" by adding a dab to the neck post as it looks pretty squatted down on his chest.

I think those three things if used in small increments could give you the extra height you need without looking too obvious. Just three small "boosts" should go unnoticed but give him the overall effect you need.
