^ I have no interest in the Eternals, but the latest trailer that showed them actually fighting looked pretty neat I must say.

Wasn’t collecting MCU figures anymore, but the uniformity and metallic colours, plus the homage to Kirby has won me over.

Where did you get Ajak? Walmart online or in stores?

@Cyclops:

I’m in the UK. So Hasbropulse.

Ah. Thanks.

I'm worry about never finding that Ajak to complete the set since it's a Walmart exclusive here in the U.S.

While I didn't think this revisit was entirely necessary, I welcome it nonetheless into the fold. Still not exactly wowed by what is ostensibly Netflix Cage with a new head and arms. However, with it out of the way, hopefully we're half a step closer to his Frightful Four cowled outfit. Or, more importantly, closer to getting Will O' The Wisp, Carrion, or any of the other Spidey villains yet to see release.

I feel like Mr Negative and Spot have to be on the horizon at this point.

Nimrod · 10-06-2021, 11:57 AM

Does BBTS actually have retro 80s Herc in stock or is it still for Dec release, same question for DST.

Both stores still show Herc as a pre-order.

Agreed, they are easy insertions given that I can't imagine a scenario in which they receive any unique tooling. I'm more excited by the prospect of Mr. Negative as a cooler character than Spot, in my opinion.

Spyne98 · 10-06-2021, 12:24 PM

Apparently Herc has been found at Best Buys across the country.
I ended up canceling my preorder on the new Sandman. I like the old BAF too much to change.

Absolutely Mr Negative is cooler than Spot but Spot is the right level of goofy that I'd love to see him get a new figure.

Captain Nash · 10-06-2021, 04:10 PM

Also agree about Mr. Negative and Spot. Between the game prominence for Mr. Negative, the absolute minimal tooling that needs to be done for either of them, I'm surprised neither of the two have made it in yet (especially Mr. Negative). They're still on my longer list so while they're not "must haves" for me, I could still see me picking them up.

Dr Kain · 10-06-2021, 05:41 PM

If they do Spot, he better be in the same wave with the Enforcers and Sleepwalker!!!

MeLikeJinx · 10-06-2021, 08:01 PM

Saw the What If, No Way Home and AoA 2 waves at my Walmart. What If Spidey was already gone and only AoA Mags was left for the AoA 2 wave... good thing he was double packed. I picked up Barbie Nebula, Gamerverse Miles and AoA Mags. But damn... $26.77 each before tax at retail still hurts like hell.

Dr Kain · 10-06-2021, 10:06 PM

Amazon proclaims my AoA wave is going to arrive on Tuesday. I guess that's something.

Whoa, nearly $27 MeLikeJinx? Is Walmart insane?

jwyss234 · 10-06-2021, 11:01 PM

I finished season 1 of What If...? today. Overall, I liked the show but I get why it's not everyone's cup of tea. That being said, I'd definitely like to see more figures from the show. I'm guessing that the third Disney+ wave will primarily consist of Hawkeye and Ms. Marvel figures so any future What If figs would have to be in Wave 4 or be released outside of a standard wave. As of the finale, the major figures we're missing are:

Gamora
Thor
Stealth/S.T.R.I.K.E. Captain Carter
Apocalypse Black Widow
Ultron with Infinity Stones

Sataninjaku · 10-06-2021, 11:06 PM

Amazon moved my estimate up yet again on the Wolverine 5er... they're saying delivery in a week now.

Robb · 10-07-2021, 03:02 AM

I got the same notice about my order. It appears it is in stock.

Dr Kain · 10-07-2021, 07:27 AM

$27 for Doctor Strange PLUS shipping? YIKES!!! I'll take my chances and hope I find it in stores.

Amazon tried to charge me for the Wolverine 5 pack. Fortunately, the credit card I used to order it on is expired, so they couldn't as I wasn't expecting it until Dec. I don't have the money to get it now since they also charged me for the AoA set. Plus, the more I think about it, as much as I want Jason and Callisto, I do not want to pay $130 for that set, so I'll wait as it is bound to go on sale in a month or two. At least, I hope it does and doesn't sell out.

DiscoJ · 10-07-2021, 07:32 AM

Just ordered two Dr Strange's.

Why?

Because fuck everyone of you, you fucking nerd assholes. That's why.

Oh hi, Blue Marvel. BTW, go fuck yourself.

*Breaking news*

An individual calling other people, and I quote, "nerd assholes" has been spotted posting on a toy forum about buying 2 action figures and acting like an asshole.

Anyone with a Ben Reilly avatar is garbage and you know it.
