Now that more people are finding Silver Surfer, I am wondering if anyone is having any issues with him.

Overall mine is great, but there is some major paint lock keeping him from rotating at his waist.

I could probably fix this, but due to the metallic paint I didn't want to get him to rotate and the paint tear where it is locked and him lose his shine. I'm still happy with him, but wanted to see if anyone else is having that same issue.

I have extra Spidey Heads that will Look Great on Him.

Good game, Great Story, Fun to play. (and now waiting on Red Dead!!)

Errrrrrrr, every time I see screen shots from the game, or trailers, I want to play it. I can't right now though. I don't have time and I'm not playing another game until after I 100% RDR2.

I'll put Spider-Man and Shadow of the Tomb Raider on my Xmas list.

The only issue I have with my Surfer is that the non-pegged leg on his surf board can not stay resting on the board, so it looks like he is trying to surf on one leg.

I haven’t opened mine yet, but I’ll check when I get home.

I hear you there! Why did Hasbro make such a silly choice? Maybe Surfer just wants to get fancy.

I saw a video review on the Sentinel and Wolverine 2 pack. Seems it really will run you $100. I have to say, I'm disappointed. The Sentinel looks like he has less paint than the old version from a few years back. Wolverine is a quick repaint and a reuse of a head that I'm not all that keen on. Here's the video for those interested.

Mine seems solid, no issues I’ve found so far.

No sign of the Thing during any of my Walgreens escapades today, but I did manage to find this little lady, whom I had no idea existed. She's not even listed on the back of the packaging...

EDIT: Really hate it when Toyark just randomly turns photos to the side when you attach them to a post.

Penguino · 09-21-2018, 10:35 AM

I've been playing the game when I can, I'd totally have bought that figure but the UK head kills it for me.

Also I personally have a problem with Marvel Legends bucks when the outfit should have tons of sculpted detail. I personally don't buy many Legends but I get so sick of seeing the same smooth body sculpt over and over. I don't know how my girl gets so excited for her 15th figure on the same body.

So you cant find your thing? Don’t worry....its happening to lotsa collectors.

Tim · 09-21-2018, 10:50 AM

Yeah I checked the Walgreens where the guy said “yeah we got it” he was clearly full of shit because they didn’t have anything haha. Not even a Silver surfer.

Nostalgic · 09-21-2018, 10:55 AM

I wasn’t sure how I was going to like this Surfer after seeing it in the package. Something looked weird about it to me. After opening it up though, I’m very happy with it!

Yeah, I don't get how that can be $100 when it was originally $50 and now comes with a $20 repaint. There's no reason why that thing needs to be more than $60.

With enough twinkies and monster energy drinks it could be possible.

DarthKamen · 09-21-2018, 03:07 PM

So...would anyone be able to pick me up a Surfer? I can pay cost+shipping or (preferably) get something to trade. Please PM me.
