I'll have to start keeping my eyes open for it. I looked them up and the Human Torch figure looks awesome!

I've been grabbing a few Spider-Man villians, but had no plan to get the Jack-O-Lantern since I'm not a big fan of the character. That said, I had never seen the figure in person until today and I thought it looked great! Too good to pass up for me.

As dumb as it sounds can someone snap a photo of the sku number on the box ? I was always under the impression it was located on the UPC of the box.

Unfortunately a few Targets I've seen have some how put out the older GOTG figures from what 2 years ago? I'm not how or why though that happened...

At least ML's haven't gone up within the past 2 years while the 3.75 have, Target has them at 12.99 now when they used to have them around 10-11 ish...

That actually wouldn't bother top much. I would love to get my hands on Richard rider Nova and space armor iron man. As far as tge new wave goes i just want Darkhawk for now. I already nabbed Angela.

My Select Gamora/Rocket set came in today. I know at least one person asked about the sizing vs Legends. Gamora is WAY too big. I had Vance handy on my desk so here is a quick and dirty side by side of Vance and the Select Rocket. I actually think Rocket fits in very well. This may just be the first Select figure that I put in with my Legends. If anyone is interested in more comparisons please let me know and I will try to do something this weekend.

I was one of the people interested in Gamora's sizing. Could you compare her next to some standard male and female MLs?

Will do. I will try to get it posted up this weekend. For a bit of an idea though, she is slightly taller than the Vance Astro figure.

Is that a custom Professor X?

There's some pics on another forum showing her with Angela. Theyre the same height.

Yeah- one of my "forever unfinished" customs that I finally just threw in there to try and motivate me to finish him. It's a Lex Luthor head on a Rick Flagg body and a few pockets and zipper sculpted on. Eventually he'll get a proper belt and shine X-patches.

^ I wish my regular Archangel had the shiny metallic wings like the SDCC one... makes such a huge difference. Awesome X-men group pic though.

En Sabah Nerd · 03-02-2017, 05:20 PM

TRU beat Walgreens to the punch in my area. I really like these four, none are perfect but all are great. Kid Nova doesn't have any problems himself but they should have done something like they did with the 4" movie Falcon where the little flying companion could plug into a clear rod from his back. Angela's articulation is rather limited and I would have preferred her lance in place of the little axe-things (I don't care if she doesn't have her lance in the Marvel comics, it would have been nice). My only problem with Groot is that while his smiling face is pretty well done it shoots down the idea of action posing. Darkhawk's wings were a bit warped in package and the way they gap at the elbow is disappointing. Those cons aside the figures are great.

Here are the two Novas together, in case anyone wanted to see 'em.

Thanks! Yeah, those shiny wings are a must! Thankfully I'm not real big fan of black and silver x-force so it wasn't too painful making the swap

Daken's quest for vengence against those his father knew continues as he locates his next target: Wolverine!

Seems too tall for Gamora- she's not a Warrior God like Angela or Valykrie...

Bo Ttef · 03-02-2017, 06:21 PM

Though not in continuity anymore- i think Vulture has enough "Sony-style" in him to look good on a shelf with Electro and Lizard. I doubt we'll see these two again anytime soon, but the Toby badguys- Venom/Sandman/GreenGoblin/DocOck will probably turn up in the new Spiderverse pretty quickly...

IRONTUCK3000 · 03-02-2017, 06:29 PM

Have anyone thought about doing this

Well she is 6 foot tall in the comics. So she's a pretty tall lady

I guess it's all a matter of individual opinion, but in the comics they shared together they had near identical builds and stature.

Hence why I'm curious to see her stack up. Especially next to Angela and some other Guardians.
