Let's try again...

Some comparison shots. (Totally forgot to add the Face-Off Punisher!)

Optimus Vader · 09-18-2012, 11:04 AM

When did Keanu Reeves star as The Punisher?

TheDub · 09-18-2012, 11:18 AM

So...wait? How many different versions of The Punisher are there? The middle on is the same And isn't the top left the same as the bottom right? But then there are two unique in each picture...so I'm counting four? Am I wrong? Do we even need that many?

i would roughly say 6 max 7

TheDub · 09-18-2012, 11:33 AM

Does anyone have a MS and ML Jugs or abomination to do a comparison shot with another ML figure? Preferably one of the new ones. The ML jugs looks huge, and the MS makes him look tiny, so i wanna see if he's to big for my taste to go with my 6inch scale.

Edit: I would be very grateful if someone could.

Yup. The one on the bottom left if from the "Urban Legends" box set. There are still two more versions of the Punisher from the Face-Off two-packs. IMO they still haven't gotten him right yet. Though, the first release is my favorite out of all of them.

LMAO! The middle one does look like Keanu

I wanted to copy this from the original thread in case anyone missed it:

Here is a list of all the figures in Wave 3 along with their running change counterparts. I have heard rumors of skinny boots IM and also a Captain America running change for US Agent. However, I have not seen any hard evidence of this actually being true...

Neo Classic Iron Man (no running change)
US Agent (no running change)
Punisher and Blade - Big Pun is out right now, and Blade will be out later on down the line.
Green Costume Dr. Doom and FF Costume Dr. Doom - FF Costume will be released later.
X-Force Deadpool and Red/Black Deadpool - XF is out now, Red/Black coming soon.
Mystique and Danielle Moonstar - Mystique is the current release.

We can't really tell how long it will be before we see running changes because Hasblow is never consistent. They rarely follow actual release dates (like this wave - it was supposed to be released in October originally I think), and they don't always keep their word. How will we know when the running changes are coming? They'll probably be seen outside of the US first in places like China and the Philippines. Remember how many auctions were up on eBay right before we started getting our pre-orders of Wave 3 cases? I was drooling over those just as much as the next guy heh. Thankfully, I was patient and didn't buy into the hype. I remember seeing DP go for $80 or more...

Hasbro said these are not really variants. They are considered to be RUNNING CHANGES. Which basically means that, somewhere down the line, all of them will be getting sent out at the same time. For now, we have these 6. Once the running changes are shipped, they will still keep on shipping the first cases as well. That's what they say, but I don't believe them. Were FF Spidey, Masked Daken, Clear Shield Steve Rogers, the Madames and Wrecking Crew all supposed to be running changes in the last wave? I think they were but I could be wrong. If they were, then that just goes to show you how Hasbro handles running changes.

The one on the right in the first picture.

shortysben · 09-18-2012, 12:52 PM

Well post man/woman has successfully screwed me again...waiting on a package with wave 3 roml deadpool, doom and usagent to arrive and a no show as usual...had to leave just now for dinner with inlaws, usually the post comes at 230pm, meaning I'll have to drive 20 minutes both ways tomorrow to get them...still hate my post office...

I guess silver lining is that I just realized I have to go to the post office tomorrow anyways, as I just made a trade with ashketch!

Alchemist559 · 09-18-2012, 12:53 PM

Where Are you that you are eating dinner now?

Tiberius · 09-18-2012, 12:53 PM

Rather have your post office than Canada Post...

M3T4L V1KING · 09-18-2012, 12:54 PM

Was thinking about getting an MS Hulk at some point, but after seeing a size comparison with MS Thanos, I'm not to sure anymore:

Wait... These are Marvel Select/7" scale figures. What have I done!? Better close the thread. CLOSE THE THREAD! CLOSE THE THREAD! Close it before it's too late for the love of humanity!

The DMC · 09-18-2012, 12:54 PM

Sorry, bro. Definitely know how it is waiting on the snail mail.

WHAT?!?! X-Files dude, X-Files.

Anyways, back ON-TOPIC.... I got my ML Ares Series Scarlet Spider in the mail today. I was greatly disappointed with how badly the package was damaged, but I never intended on keeping it in the package - it was meant to be a gift for my son. Anyways, the package had all kinds of dirt and sand and crap INSIDE the bottom of the package. I think it was in some box when a basement flooded or something. I don't know, but the figure is intact. I have another that is NMOC for my wall, so no biggie. Anyways...

It's been great chatting with all of you over these past few months. In such a short time, you all have made me feel so welcome. I need a break from the Ark, but I will still post in some of the other threads. Mainly, I need a break from the 2 threads that I frequent the most. I'm taking a page out of SH0CKWAVE's book on this one. If you need to contact me, feel free to do so via PM, Facebook or email. Take Care & God Bless you all.
