that drink is good. i used to drink it all night to stay awake when i used to be a bouncer, back in the day

A lot of it is I think sometimes, we as collectors tend to discount the concept of impulse buys. While the line is primarily aimed at collectors, I reckon there's still a decent amount of business that comes from people who are interested upon coming across these toys in the wild, or people who might be more casual fans that primarily know Marvel from movies and TV shows.

If you're one of the many who grew up with the X-Men cartoon in the 90s or the early live-action movies and have a passing interest in figures, someone like Wolverine, Magneto or Cyclops is gonna be way more appealing to you than someone you've never heard of or only vaguely remember. I find this often goes double for movie waves since you have a crossover audience of people who are seeking characters from the film but might not have interest in the others.

Obviously there are exceptions to this. It was next to impossible to find Jane Foster at retail in a lot of places.

Are these implying what I think they're implying?

I hope no one runs that poor rabbit over.

OH MY GOD, that is fucking funny as hell!!!! I can not stop laughing right now!


You really need to go see Infinity War.

Classic Moon Knight

So it does mean what I think.

Just a few more weeks....

Ohhhhhh haha. I get it now.

Spider-man waves are Hasbros bread and butter. While i have close to 30 of his villians sitting on a shelf, there are still more that haven't been made.

As far as different variations of spider man himself. I think just about every popular version has been been released the last vouple of years. I do think we could use a few redos for future foundation, big time, comic accurate
Iron spider, and superior.

We're still missing man-spider spidey, and six arm spidey.

While i have no actual proof on the matter im sure the spidey waves outsell the other ones.

Personally, I think it is time Hasbro does a direct Ditko or Romita Sr Spidey with the web wings.

We need a Mcfarlane version !! Exactly like the one Mafex is coming out with. With Mcfarlane style eyes and so fourth.

Are the new Silver Surfer or Thing Walgreens figures starting to show up in stores? Sorry if this info has been posted, I haven’t been on in a while.

My local Vintage Stock got in the Infinity War series 2 this week. I almost bought Black Knight , but I am not worried about this line. Now when the X-men line shows I will buy on sight.

X-MEN wave might be a preorder the whole set. You know they'll be next to impossible to get.

That's my plan. Preorder immediately. And I won't even feel bad if I pick up an extra Psylocke or multiple multiples of Multiple Man. Because that's what he's there for!

I wish we would get grizzly as a baf. I mean we got cable and the real domino, we just need kane, gw bridge and hammer ( in his hotrod wheel chair thingy ) and bam instant 6 pack. And that still leaves room for a team x wolverine, maverick and agent x. And we could get the non baf fig as xmen blue and orange deadpool with all the gear from juggy wave dp.

Sweet!

I'm hoping the new X-men wave hits Gamestops hard like the Black Panther and Deadpool waves did. I was able to get 90's Cable by checking their online inventory checker thing a few times a days... I doubt I would have gotten him otherwise.

The Deadpool wave is selling really well here though except for Paladin. I thought people would be sick of Deadpool by now... but even double packed 90's Deadpool is still being bought up. Where I am at all the Back in Black Deadpools are pretty much all gone too at TRU, Gamestop and Target.

I wonder if the underwear Deadpool from wave 2 will be the first 6" Legends Deadpool to become a major pegwarmer.

Latest word is walgreens computers are showing an august date for silver surfer and a sept date for thing.

So do we not know what the SDCC exclusive for this year will be yet?

Rumors on Facebook in various groups suggest a comic style Black Order set. That's what my money is on too. But time will tell. I would think we'd know soon.

I live about 70 miles from the Mexican border, and while I was able to find the Walmart Black Panther early in Nogales, I have yet to run into Silver Surfer in my trips down to the border.

August and September though feels like an eternity to wait for Surfer and Thing. Hopefully they'll show up a bit sooner than that.

I picked up a set of "berzerker claws" over from Casting Cave for my Wolverine, and despite the amount of work to get them set, I'm really happy with how they came out. This things are beastly, and they make the other claws that Logan came with look puny in comparison. I'm probably gonna get me another set once the tiger stripe Wolverine drops.

Better yet, I now have an extra set of claws to properly fit into my X-23's feet, meaning I can dump the placeholder metal claws I installed on her recently.

"I go...where I wanna go..."

A word of note to anyone thinking about getting them, they are a deceiving amount of work to get clipped and set into your Wolverine's hands, and you will need to do a bit of sanding and maybe even some drilling, depending on how large the holes are in the back of your figure's hands are. Once set though, you're gonna love them. I promise.

...Meanwhile in Hong Kong...things aren't going so well for Batroc...

"Interpol huh? Good work. I'll take it from here..."

“Everybody was kung fu fiiiiighting......those kicks were fast as lightnnnnnning!”

Thank God you quoted Carl Douglas there, and not whatever that awful crap song that Nicki Minaj just put out. I might have thrown something at you... ;)
