Quick question. First time I have ordered from big bad toy store. These Pre orders say July, how correct is this. Does it mean anytime in July and can it get pushed back. Thank you in advance

I order 80% of my toys from BBTS. ALL dates are subject to change but it is up to the manufacturer, not BBTS. BBTS puts up dates that they are supposed to be out but delays can happen. Shipping from overseas, customs issues, overseas problems, I mean just about anything can change when something is due. ANY pre order can be any time that month, but can always get moved back. Case in point, Sideshow Hot Toys stuff rarely comes out on time, they get pushed back all the time. Loki and Agent Coulson from the 1/6 Avengers were both delayed 2 months and BBTS had no control over this at all. It was all Sideshow doing the delaying. But overall I would say most of the BBTS estimates are good for expected dates.

Thank you for this answer. I see most stores pushing out old inventory as we speak and I know July is early as a month so I expect to see new marvel legends or universe around or after comic con.

Sharon is the only one in S.H.I.E.L.D. that wares that costume currently.

really nice pictures you got there

My New Custom Nova just came in a couple days ago.

[ForcePhantom]

Hey, I'm switching to legends from MU and I'm wondering if the MU sentinel and galactus are compatible

[kenm2474]

Hmm...I dont know? I have never touched a 3.75 inch figure after Star Wars 30 years ago. I know that people use the ML BAF Sentinel for MU but dont know if that works being flipped.

I think they work pretty good with Marvel Legends as well with MU figures.

Thanks a bunch

[trebleshot]

For me, it's all about personal preference. The scale with those two in the comics always fluctuated depending on whoever was the creative team. Then there's the in-comic explanation that Galactus can size-change and Sentinels can be build to just about any size these days (or even be half-human hybrids).

[Masterless]

I'm not sure if this was already asked and answered so I apologize in advance if this is redundant(or in the wrong thread) but in the Iron Monger BAF series, is there a War Machine MK II variation for Movie Iron Patriot? I personally have never seen one but the art on the back shows the MK II War Machine.

[warmachine6]

well apperentley there is along with a golden ultron and mandarin so maybe .... i know play imaginative are doing 1/12 scale ironman so might have to get that one from there

[Masterless]

^Alright. Thanks. I did see the gold Ultron and as far as Mandarin, I must've misconstrued. I thought he was going to be 3.75; regardless, the movie 'Mandarin' won't be part of my collection. Though the variation of the Iron Patriot is on my sights, though I'd rather just stick with the ML War Machine MK II.

not sure if these had been posted yet but here are the box artwork for the wave 2 characters. It's weird because these packs dont have the swapped characters (ie. Jean Grey is Jean Grey, not with Phoenix or AOA Jean) and they're die cuts so it it would be too expensive to keep changing the backings for each variant.

Also it looks like Terry Dodson is doing the art.

I really enjoy Clayton Crain, I wish he had stayed doing the art, but I think it is going to change each line.

[Masterless]

I'm THIS close from getting this set. not because of who it builds, but Scarlet Spider and Jean Grey(all variations are fine, least favorite is AoA).

[Onslaught]

Can't wait to get Hawkeye and Jean!

[trebleshot]

Looks like there will be yet another wave of ROML that I'll walk right past at the store.

...ok, maybe I'll take a couple looks at Scarlet Spider, but I doubt I'm gonna buy him.

Maybe the art for the variants conforms to the existing cutouts so they won't have to make a new backing card?

[warmachine6]

hmmm wrecker will be a getter everything else can be passed :L

[ChuckSass]

MarvelousNews has images of the SDCC thunderbolts in hand. Moonstone isn't as pearly as I would have hoped, still good though but man oh man Satana is quite the good looking figure. It's also pretty obvious that she and Moonstone are the MU dagger & Jubilee mold just scaled up, but hey, its a good buck maybe it will be great on a ML.

Defenitely wanting those two females though *wink wink*

[Andy Carruthers]

I'm most excited for Scarlet Spider, Black Panther and Hawkeye

[Boywonder]

Surprised no ones discussing this yet (at least as far as I can see);

Cool Toy Review Photo Archive

Most of the next wave is there, Blizzard, Batroc, Radioactive Man, Jubilee (why no Jim Lee version Hasbro???), Flash Venom, Tiger Shark, Songbird, Marvel Now Thor as well as some new Iron Man figs (non-Iron Patriot War Machine, Mandarin and Rescue).
