I'm sure they're just backlogged with a sudden surge of orders of stuff they couldn't sell before.

LOL! Even now, my Stilt Man is missing an arm as I have no desire for Frogman. Maybe if I can find him for $5?

My life would be complete if we got a MCU songbird or moonstone.

Alright looked it up. Pretty cool. I wonder how they'll do it. Will they be introduced as a bunch of heroes and then do a fake out on the unsuspecting/non-comic-aware general audiences? Or will it be a reformed villains doing dangerous stuff scenario? I'm kind of hoping it's the first one. No offense but Suicide Squad already beat them to the punch on that one. Audiences won't distinguish between the two. I'm sure I'll love it any way.

I would guess that for MCU Thunderbolts they'd go for a mix of known and new characters. Then again by the time it actually comes out they might have already introduced everybody. I feel like Zemo has to be involved in some capacity, it's his team, but I could see it being a very hands-off role like Fury with the Avengers.

But I’m willing to bet ghost, yelena, and taskmaster will return for the movie though. |

Isn't it kind of too late for the Thunderbolts given Hurt died?
I hope to the gods that utter abomination of a Taskmaster is never heard from again. Maybe they can get the real Taskmaster?

She was not Taskmaster. Taskmaster is not some invalid dumbass whose head is two times smaller than her body. I don't even know much of anything about Taskmaster in the comics, but I do know that version in the movie was a complete insult to the character. She was hands down the worst MCU translation thus far. It's something I'd expect Zack Snyder to come up with given his disdain for the source material.

Update on Pulse’ sale: they’ve added a banner on the top of the website saying that “Due to the popularity of the Power Days sale event, shipping may be delayed.” So I suppose that clears that up (although everyone had already reached that conclusion independently)!

IMO MCU Taskmaster wasn't as terrible as people made the depiction out to be, nor was the movie as bad as some lamented. While being far from the biggest fan of the character, I am familiar with him and this is one of the rare occasions in which I believe the MCU backstory makes more sense than the canon. The liberties taken with Taskmaster are no more egregious than say Tony Stark being the creator of Ultron or the character donning the Infinity Gauntlet.

The only reasons i hated not task master was just because it turned the character into an mcu throwaway identity like Ronin and it was a waste of olga kurylenko. She coulda been used as either an all new masked villianess or masked red guardian 2 ( or was the chick version 3 ). Either way i hope a TRUE mcu taskmaster is used. Plus the costume was pretty meh.

The only point of contention I have is why they only shipped part of my order out and not the whole thing. I would have rathered they just shipped them all together. Quote:
Glad you enjoyed her though. You're the first person I've seen post that was happy with the route they went. I didn't down right hate Black Widow, but it had no business being a Phase 4 movie. The stakes were non-existent because you knew Natasha was not going to ever be in any true danger. The plot was pretty much just a worse version of The Winter Soldier. And the villains were dreadful. Yelena was the best thing about the movie and ultimately what saves it from being as bad as Thor Dark World and The Eternals. What's kind of funny though is on another message board I've got kind of a cyber stalker who constantly tells me I never say anything bad about the MCU while I tear the DCEU apart, but then when I linked him to my post about how terrible I found Taskmaster to be, he blatantly ignored it.

Sorry to topic jump. I don't know if anyone has said this before, but What If Infinity Ultron kind of looks like Ultron's design in Annihilation: Conquest. Is it too much to hope for a stand alone/deluxe release of this BAF now?

^Yes, I mentioned it off the top when they unveiled it. However, the gulf between the D+ design and the Annihilation: Conquest Ultron is considerable. I don't want a 'half-ass/good enough' re-tool. Although that is what we'll likely see.
