I would display Thundra with my F4 figures if I had them.

Nico, I've got no clue. I'm gonna see if they release more Runaways.

Probably the safest bet is just with other magic based characters like Dr. Strange.

Yeah magic/supernatural is probably where I'm gonna throw her for now, with Dr. Strange, Ghost Rider, Blade, etc.,

Hopefully Hasbro decides to release more Runaways

Well i just had a nerd attack Lol finally a New Shocker not the outfit I really wanted but im not complaining. Also sandman is badass

SymbiSpidey · 10-06-2016, 04:01 PM

Surely we can expect to see Overdrive in the future now, right?

We have 4/5 of the Superior Foes now, c'mon Hasbro....

I found the whole wave at Walgreen's so you might wanna check there. Though I'd go out and see if it's there before cancelling your order, just in case.

LapuLapu · 10-06-2016, 04:22 PM

Yeah Im gonna keep the preorder till I find one at retail, just want to hear any experience with Amazon fulfilling a pre order after it gets back ordered. I just dont want it to become the TRU fiasco with the Jubilee BAF wave.

Pravus Prime · 10-06-2016, 04:51 PM

Enchantress arrived this afternoon from Amazon. $15 bucks to have her come to my door, I can live with that.

While I personally would've liked new feet (cause those high heeled feet are a pain to pose), everything else is great. Very happy with it and glad I didn't freak out over the RAFT set or pay extortion prices.

Very happy right now.

Shocker will be in a Spider-wave, anything else would make no sense.

Erland · 10-06-2016, 07:30 PM

Yeah, sorry, my bad, I had Shocker listed twice for some reason.. anyone have the rest of the GOTG figures, I know they have announced more than what I have listed.

They showed Sam Nova, Angela, Darkhawk, and Vance Astro back at SDCC with BAF Titus, it's possible that these are all the same wave.

The BAF for the X-Men wave is Warlock (the techno-organic alien from the New Mutants), and it's looking like there may be two Guardians waves next year: the BAF Titus wave (Angela, Sam Alexander Nova, Darkhawk, and Vance Astro, along with unrevealed figures from the upcoming second movie) and the "slipped" wave with Adam Warlock and Death's Head II.

Thundra I keep with Villains like Hyperion and such. Nico will go with my Mystics sense I don't have an A-Force group. Even tho most of that team will be complete when Dazzler comes out.

Hey thanks brotha !! I was also scheduled to possibly do 16 hours basically a double today too. That was IF this became bad. Luckily it did not and south Florida was lucky. However dont know what will happen in north Florida.

As much as I like him having regular arms, nah, he's inferior due to the lack of detail and I prefer the green sweater.

Thundra is on one of my villains shelves. Nico will go on my Magics/Norse Gods shelf where Strange, Iron Fist, Brother Voodoo, Valkyrie, Odin, Hela, and Enchantress are.

I am really pleased with this figure, the monochrome look works very well and I am convinced it is genuine.

To me this figure seems way too new for it to have been an actual bootleg knock-off, even though those are illegitimate they still can't make them THAT fast. I'd say it's what others suggested: a factory extra/swipe/reject.

lordbest · 10-07-2016, 01:09 AM

I agree, and if it is a reject then i don't know why, all the parts are correct and all the joints function perfectly well.

TheBlueMarvel · 10-07-2016, 05:30 AM

@Best

Looks good, thanks for posting them up.

Im not really well read when it comes to Ms. marvel so why is she Black and White is it a Outfit she wears or They just made this like a Black and White Drawing?

Captain Nash · 10-07-2016, 07:30 AM

Isn't that Captain Marvel the Marvel Unlimited figure this year? My thought is maybe those selling have subscriptions, maybe multiple subscriptions somehow?
