I'm with you. Pretty soon they will be soft reissuing everything on pinless bucks with minor revisions.

Has anyone found the Target exclusive tracksuit mafia figure? I’ve never seen them in store nor available online at target. My preorders were cancelled.

Anyone know where to get these? Even eBay has very few US sellers.

I only saw them one time in store. I grabbed two then with an intent to get a third later, and never saw them again.

Thankfully...my Black Widow was sent by Target, cause I still have yet to see her in store. My Target's got the single figure cases of Cho'd, Puff Adder and Cosmo waves all at the same time and clearanced them out within two weeks, so a lot of the figures I never even saw in store. My Target Legends shelves have been painfully empty since...with none of the exclusives ever coming in, and the Antman and Cho Hulk waves only showing up at Gamestops and Walmart thus far.

No, I didn't even know they had come out until ike 2 weeks ago when someone on TFW posted a picture of them.

I bid on and won a lot of three from eBay immediately following Target’s cancellation. That and the Ant-Man tie-in wave were botched badly. I think we can expect this sort of thing to become normal, although I’m at a loss as to why it’s happening. Domestic supply chain issues? Manufacturer shipping delays? Dunno.

EvilMonkeyPope · 08-28-2023, 05:42 PM

I'd seen tracksuit mafia in person but passed on it. I haven't found the BW yet.

I don't want another Dark World Thor. I want one that'd work for his first film & The Avengers. It could come with a choice of bare & armored arms plus an alternate helmet head.

Better look at the figs and accessories

When this batch of Infinity Saga figures was first leaked as a listing it was one of my more anticipated assortments but upon full reveal the buzz is gone. Ignoring headsculpts I think Black Widow's arms are the only mechanical upgrade I'm seeing on any of these compared to previous releases.

WallySparks · 08-30-2023, 03:07 PM

that Black Widow figure is perfect to turn into an Emma Peel custom from the wacky 1998 Avengers movie

Ok, provided that you aren't ChatGPT, that Avengers movie from 1998 had nothing to do with Marvel’s Avengers. The movie wasn’t wacky, it was an attempt to revitalize a very popular show from the 60’s that also had nothing to do with Marvel. The show had many fans during its initial 8 year run and developed new ones later as it was syndicated; I’m one of those newer fans becoming aware of the British show in the 80’s. Check out the show, you might become a fan as well. Again, that is, if you aren’t an AI.

WallySparks · 08-30-2023, 05:00 PM

Bite me, fella.

I know that the 1998 Avengers movie is based on the old british tv show. Everyone in their 40s to 50s know that.

Im just saying that the new Marvel Legends Infinity figure of Black Widow is perfect to turn it into a cusom Emma Peel figure.

Dunno what the hell your problem is

You said the same thing twice on subsequent pages, don't blame me for confusing you with a chat-bot.

And, no, I won't bite you.

WallySparks · 08-30-2023, 06:50 PM

I do when they write the same thing twice.

*shrugs*

As far as being obtuse, maybe. It's sort of like when you kept using the term "cripple."

I'm an adult that spends disposable income on twenty dollar action figures and talks about it here. The child in me is strong.

He's not a "chat bot". He simply needs his opinions validated. Or he's, ya know, obtuse.
