How much did you pay for it?

$250 on buy it now option. Well worth it to me, for this particular release. Ha, there's now one for less than $200 BIN but what's done is done. Serves me right for being trigger happy.

Man, if I miss out in September on this boxset I don't care what that aftermarket price is...I need that set.

Also, I was re-evaluating My Top 10 Wants list and somehow, She-Hulk always slips under my radar. I guess because we got that really good one earlier this year, but it's not my preferred look for her. If I'm thinking about my Top 10 now, she's probably like #3 after Classic Strange and Falcon. I was also pondering the possibility of a 90s Blade Ultimate Riders set. Blade seems like a prime candidate for that line.

Yeah that was my thought as well. and so many posts that seem to be very excited about getting the set or multiples. I figured it's a crap shoot snagging an SDCC set anyways, and given this was my "holy grail" of releases already, I didn't want to have anxiety for the next month to month and a half.

And if you bought it from overseas chances are you'll be getting it the same time as the rest of us

I'm actually not sure where it's coming from LOL. But it's "in stock' that's the important thing to me. I don't mind waiting. I just won't have the anxiety of not knowing if I will get one or not. And i know me, I have anxiety about everything, and would definitely be having it over this. I hope everyone that wants it manages to get at least one!

Bo Ttef · 08-13-2020, 10:18 AM

Pulse members will (hopefully) get a shot at the HFC set early- so with an early bird and "open" release I'm feeling pretty confident that getting a couple of these won't be too hard.

I'll just wait for it to be up on Pulse and save myself $120+.

It seems like multiple people in that thread used the Hasbro Toy Shop on Ebay to order their Spidey retro figs... maybe you can ask what's going on with Hasbro's ebay store over there and get some answers.

Thanks, I just want some communication from them. I hate this we will leave you in the dark crap. I got some answers from reading over there. I still got no answer from them on Ebay and no ship notice.

Yeah I am the same way. I would like to have the set but I have certain price in mind I am going too.

Don't forget that $50 pulse premium membership fee. I'm pretty sure they are delaying preorders until after everyone's free trial ends. It's a smart business move. I wasn't going to pay for it, but I'm not missing the Hellfire Club, so they get my $50.

You don't have to be a member for regular stuff. Premium members get early access to exclusives and I am assuming the Hellfire Set will sell out quickly. Also, members get free shipping on everything.

Bruh thanks to a monster jizz fight in early season 3, I for the first time ever decided I was too mature to watch something. And I have Pikachu on my drawers and refuse to buy non-dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets.

Wow. Never realized that. Slap the head on a Thundra body, Hasbro. No need to thank me.

If Hasbro reuses that body ever again, for anyone, I'm holding you responsible.

Agree, it's one of the few missteps Hasbro's had since they revitalized legends 6 years ago. It's borderline grotesque. I'm just glad I had no particular love for the character and just needed it for the BAF

Hulkwummy · 08-13-2020, 01:52 PM

Just wondering, how long does it normally take for a new body sculpt to be made for Marvel Legends with furry females like Tigra or 90s X-Factor Wolfsbane?

warmachine6 · 08-13-2020, 02:07 PM

I think to get characters like Tigra or 90s wolfsbane they'd have to be part of an exculsive. Hasbro needs to be able to re-use those furry body parts, for i guess future furry female characters, the harsh truth is your probably better off saving alot of money and finding a good customiser to make one of those characters.

EDIT- look at the recent hellfire club exculsive pack, Emma, selene or Jean are on the same body mold pretty much, might not seem them again in that classic comic style.

I dunno just speculation really.

Starlord67 · 08-13-2020, 02:12 PM

I never thought of TIGRA as "furry" ..meaning I figured her hair was smooth as that was how it has been drawn. No tufts of fur on her legs and arms like in the first Avengers cartoon.
Wolfsbane and Feral (and Thorn) have been drawn that way from the beginning. (Furry I mean)

One thing they can do is sculpt Ferals hair separately and use it for WILDSIDE from the MLF. I'd love to see Reaper and Fourarm(sp?)tackled from that team.

Starlord67 · 08-13-2020, 02:15 PM

@Capt. Nash...check your PMs

sh002 · 08-13-2020, 03:17 PM

Found 2 War Machines at Target so the 2 that were recently shipped from Target will be returned. If anybody needs one then let me know. It can be shipped loose.

@Captain Nash hopefully you at least got the 5% ebay bucks for the purchase.

I’ll be buying the set from ebay if I don’t manage to get it at Hasbro Pulse when it gets listed.
