Idk why all the Homecoming listings have disappeared. Guess I'll just have to find Tombstone and Beetle at retail

That's not really that surprising. it happens quite often with "early" amazon listings (prior to expected release dates and photos.) The less information there is the less likely it's accurate (though it may end up being as such) and the less accurate it is, the less likely Amazon will keep the posting up. It's just Amazon trying to not have fraudulent listings up.

Online retailers aren't allow to put up listings for the Homecoming wave until June 1.

Checked my TRU this morning since today is shipment day.

Ran into one of the douchebag scalpers from my last encounter. We got into a footrace to get to Legends, but there was nothing there. I hate that guy. Fuckin' scalpers.

There was a Homecoming display set up though, so it should be soon that we see the Legends.

Cool and thank you for that info.

I think Cyclops and Colossus are the endangered species of the ML Wave and out in the wild...I gave up looking for them in the wild, $#@%! Got Psych and Piotr for basically 35 each on EBay. Not happy with price, but not happy running to countless stores and only seeing the other figures from the wave..But, very happy to add Psych most of all! Darn it, still upset I paid 35 each, but I have a feeling that these will become harder to find, especially Psych and Piotr...For all the recent X-Men waves, I have always had to resort to the internet to get some figures! Oh well, better than asking store employees for help, and having store employees look at you funny when you come into the store all the time and walk out with nothing, and battling the scalpers in the morning, and wasting gas...Hope you gals and guys find your X-Wave in the stores

I don't think they let figures in jail while you're serving time for assault.

I just give them my best Dark Phoenix atomization stare and internally hex them.

[Weapon X]

@AFU, I think the whole wave is an endangered species lol.

@Nitelife, maybe next time I'll bring a banana peel.

Ugh, guys. I am never ordering anything from China again. I bought an ML Professor X on April 16th only to find that it will arrive anywhere between May5th and June 12th. The seller won't respond to my messages, and they're a first time seller. Ebay won't do jackshit until June 13th. Fuck everything.

The Sentinel is a load! I'm a little afraid to test too many of his joints, but he's imposing as heck, almost dwarfing Galactus. Giant Man and MODOK don't really interest me enough to go back and build. Maybe I can find MODOK cheap in EBay.

As for the figures, Mr. Sinister is straight up awesome. Each finger is articulated, and the face sculpt is fantastic. The Black Panther figure is over rated. I'm not sure why they short packed that guy. The cape is cool, fingers are just too damn long and awkward. First appearance Ironman came out the package extremely loose on every joint, very disappointed.

Looks like you might have a miss matched Apocalypse. There were two veraions, a mainly light blue and a darker shaded one. MODOK is pretty cheap if you go that route, but Giant man is far from cheap

Eh, that's just China shipping times for you. I always assumed it was to cover their asses depending on general postage delays, customs processing, and the like. If the guy won't respond, that's pretty grumble-worthy, but I wouldn't get out-of-sorts unless either it never shows up, or it ends up being a super-crappy bootleg (IE not what the photos showed). Don't give up hope.

I second this. It wasn't a collectible but I have ordered things from China (music related, my other hobby) that took up to two months to get to me. It's literally the slow boat from China.

Could be worse, I ordered a concert video from Argentina that took so long (4 months) to get to me that I forgot I ordered it.

At this point it's so vague in shipping I never order from anything that's not US or Canada.

Finally Found Cyclops at target. Man he is awesome. I'm finally done until the new Spidey wave hits

Custom Domino Update. Getting her Hairdo together.

You're putting a lot of work into that figure, I'm excited to see how it turns out.

I saw a shatter in stores....man it was underwhelming. Sloppy paint on the eye....guess his mascara was running.

Maybe he was cutting onions with those swords.

I almost thought the same until you see them side by side. Black Apocalypse's torso is rather black.

It's hard to tell from your 1st picture, I actually had the wrong torso on mine for years, I finally swapped it. Here is the 2

[Weapon X]

One thing I have to say I don't miss from Toy Biz are variants. They were cool but variants are such a bitch to find. It's just another thing to track down.

[Boy Blunder]

I know a lot of people are upset about the smaller BAFs in the Hasbro era, but looking at Apocalypse and his ilk, I'm glad to not have to find a place for those behemoths! We've only got so much display room right now, and as it is, we already have trouble with the Leader-class TFs we have (not to mention my wife's Supreme YOTH Starscream (which is currently chilling next to our geckos due to the lack of space).

I like the black apocalypse better.

Since the others were already posted, here is the amazon link for Ares:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XWQT2J4...I30203RIPC7GB2

Cyke and Colossus has been periodically available on hasbrotoyshop.com, Cyke doesn't last long maybe an hour or two, but colossus has lasted several hours the last couple of restocks.

I've made that mistake and I only own the black version...
