I bought Hulk vs Wolverine 45% off

How big is ML 80th or SDCC Hulk? Siege Voyager (including siege leader) is shorter than 80th Hulk.

Checked Walmart again, found some of Molten Man. The selection was atrocious, but then, such is Walmart. Having him in hand finally, I can really see why people hated this figure. He’s repugnant. Not Hasbro’s fault, as he is a solid translation of the on-screen look, but Christ does it not translate. Figures themselves (Hydro-Man and Spider-Woman) are alright, although I’m underwhelmed by Hydro-Man’s posability. Looks fine on the shelf, but he’s really limited as a figure.

That would explain a lot. He looks like he was left on a heater.

If you shine light through Molten Man, he improves 1000%.

I'm tempted to try installing LEDs in him.

LEDs, you say... hell, I’ve got nothing planned New Year’s. Time to take apart an enormous flaming turd.

I really hope at toy fair they surprise us with Final Battle Thor and Short hair Carol.

But what I really want is an Okoye retail release that's not a BAF. Maybe do what they did with Giant Man. I need Okoye in my collection.

Is she particularly expensive on ebay?

Where'd you manage to snag it 45% off? That's a hell of a deal!

Since everyone else is doing a top 10, why not me? In no particular order...

10) Wal-Mart Classic Captain America, just wish he came with the saluting and pointing hands and the shield with sculpted lines on it, but otherwise he's awesome!

9) FFH Mysterio, just needed effects pieces to really put him over the edge

8) 2-pack Juggernaut, technically not a 2019 release, but this V2 version just does more things right than the original

7) Movie T'chaka, just wish his kente cloth was softgoods so he was more posable

6) 80th Classic Iron Man, even though my first one had two left feet haha

5) Big Time Spidey, a goofy design that I have an odd soft spot for!

4) Ultimate Captain America with Motorcycle

3) jacketed Jim Lee Cyclops, the jacket adds a nice touch!

2)80th classic Hulk, I mean, this is THE last Hulk I'll ever need! (Not that I wouldn't buy more on this body!)

1) Doc Doom squeaking in at the tail end of the year! Probably the greatest Doom toy we've ever gotten, or will get for a looong time!

En Sabah Nerd · 12-30-2019, 03:23 PM

So I was just browsing around on Pulse and saw that Doom's expected arrival date got pushed from January 1st to the 13th.

Looks like the Spider-Man wave did as well.

Dammit...what's the point Hasbro of offering an expected by date if you're not going to follow through on it? I can understand a 3rd party supplier like BBTS or Dorkside doing this...but your own flagship store? Jeebus...

Even worse is that other online retailers have already received theirs and have begun shipping...what's the friggen point?

I honestly haven't been pleased with my previous experiences with Pulse...this will probably be the last time I deal with them going forward.

Works for me. I can't afford him nor Vulture right now.

Sorry it took so long to get these up for you. I couldn't remember where exactly my TB Kingpin was.

As you can see...there's a huge size difference. Besides being smaller than the current BAF Kingpin's arms, the arms on the old TB version are also longer (thanks to Toybiz's obsession with weird proportions.) The hands also have a skin tone that looks nothing like the newer BAF, and do not articulate outside the knuckles, as the wrist is a part of the lower arm sculpt.

Probably not the best choice for custom kitbash project. Seems like a lot of work for little gain.

redfox · 12-30-2019, 07:06 PM

Simply F4ntastic! Ordered Invisible Woman loose from eBay, while Victor Von Doom came from GameStop during their online sale. Getting these two and White Rabbit, I think I put these new waves on pause until they hit retail and I'll cherry-pick the rest.

Dr Kain · 12-30-2019, 10:19 PM

I do like that Sue head better than the Walgreens one. I wonder if it is compatible.

redfox · 12-31-2019, 12:28 AM

Definitely compatible. Did the swap as soon as I got the figure.

MeLikeJinx · 12-31-2019, 01:27 AM

Nah... I think I like the old Sue head better... I don't like those two hair curls at the eye level on the new head. It is like her hair is blowing in the wind... or maybe I do like it better... IDK. LOL. I know I need to find another Walgreens Mr. Fantastic to put the new Johnny Storm head on though, but damn... Mr. Fantastic became expensive all of a sudden.

Finally I got my last figure of the year, Jean.
I also cave in on the 80th ann. Cap. Don't like the dark blue, but love the headsculpts and the scales.
For those in London or nearby, Forbidden planet has a lot of figures for thirteen quid or less. Including Thor.
Will post my best of tonight (UK time).

Has anyone found the Hulk/wolverine 2pk in store at Gamestop?

Robb · 12-31-2019, 12:29 PM

I did a month or so ago.

tsuzuki · 12-31-2019, 01:06 PM

I've seen it in a couple of stores around me.

Same as the rest. My local store has one that hasn’t moved at all. Probably due to the terrible eye paint error on hulk ha,
