Rocket's got Kid Groot, an alternate head, two guns, and Mantis' torso


Gamora's got a sword, a knife-like weapon, a rifle, and one of Mantis' legs


Nebula's got an alternate cybernetic arm, a pistol, and Mantis' other leg. Looks like her and Gamora are in a shared 'Daughters of Thanos' packaging.


Star-Lord comes with his blasters, a cassette tape (I think? Or maybe it's a MacGuffin?), and one of Mantis' arms. Also looks like he might have holsters under his coat for both blasters (or at least one).


Adam Warlock includes a Magus alternate head and two 'Kirby Crackle' energy accessories, and Mantis' head.


Ex Nihilo comes with Mantis' other arm. He and Adam Warlock appear to share the 'Cosmic Protectors' packaging.


Death's Head II comes with an alternate right arm to swap for his weapon-arm. And no Mantis parts.

@ukmu, I don't have Bulldozer, so I have no idea what heads would fit.

Very good looking wave. I love the Star-Lord from the Titus BAF Series, but I'll find a way to display this Star-Lord, regardless. Gamora, Nebula, and Mantis look fantastic! Hats of the Hasbro. The articulation on Rocket and alternate head sculpt is refreshing, and the rest of the figures have spots on my display waiting for them. I'm pleased with the looks of this wave and cannot wait to have these in my possession.

[UpDog]

Very lukewarm on this wave, and since BAF is an MCU that doesn't look much like Comic counterpart, I'll likely pass, and with an arguably cooler Star Lord already peg warming, I can't wait for this one to sit at retail forever

Warlock is a must
Deathshead looks extremely toyetic, though I would've preferred the first
Ex Nihilo when he goes on clearance
Maybe nebula on clearance too since the costume is close to comic

[Phantomcrow]

I really like the Ultimate Vulture. I don't mind that his wings are not poseable, I feel like they would not have held up with a ball joint. I think the Toomes head looks like evil Professor X. I wish they would have done SOMETHING to the Spidey other than slightly different paint.
I found a whole case at the Liberty Wal-Mart for those in the KC area.
Still no Black Panther

[Tomax]

finally spotted old logan and colaussus in the wild in my area but no cyclops, which is the only one i want. i get paid in a week with this new job i got. most likely gonna buy it on ebay

I really think making mantis the build a figure was as brilliant as making jubilee a baf. Golden minotaur dude shoulda been it then i wouldnt have to get the whole bloody wave. Still love nebs and Deaths head. Too bad it wasnt deathheads one but ill take whats i can gets on the obscure euro marvel dudes.

I see many a gambit custom made outta ol petey here.

[Harbinger]

Anyone need kamala khaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnn? I need more sandman parts and would happily trade her for a few?

[MeLikeJinx]

Think I'm gonna need to get that blue assassin girl.

IF, by some miracle i manage to find em theyre yours.

[Weapon X]

Thanks man!

[redfox]

The Daughters of Thanos is sucha cool tagline for Gammie and Nebs. Hope they won't be too hard to track down. I'll probably pick up Star-lord and Rocket on a whim of completing Mantis. Not really a cosmic Marvel fan, so I don't really have any interest in the comic figures this time around.

TRU/pines blvd, there was 2 of them

[Weapon X]

I've driven to and called every store around looking for a Logan. I'm done. My gas tank is drained and my spirit crushed. Fuck Hasbro's distribution.

I'm going back to online buying, hunting is not worth the effort.

[Kagamigod]

I got a second Logan I don't really need. Bought a case from EE

[Kagamigod]

As for this GotG wave complete pass for me. I only collect comic book figs and the ones included in this wave hold no interest for me.

I'll drink to that. Either they don't properly get stuff out or they make the most desired items rare. It's not on topic for this thread but finding a toy of R2-D2 shouldn't be as difficult as it is right now.

since we are on the distribution topic, you know which line is always fully stocked that i have seen from walmart, target and TRU. WWE figures, they have excellent distribution
