The classic one ( all black, w/ blue shadeing and a cape, necklace, and spear) is, in my opinion, the best comic BP ever made. The design is simple, but that’s how he generally looks. The “pink panther”, like symbi said, is a more recent look. I’m not super farmilliar with that look, but I’ve been told that the pink symbols on him are representative of his costumes vibranium ability to absorb, and store energy. Personally I think the ears on that one are a bit funky... he looks more like black ocelot.

I know a few lower level buddies who work at certain large toy companies and they know the bosses are not very happy with the sales of certain figures and are forced to lose money on figures they know will not sell, but are handicapped by progressiveness and the license holder(s).

I tried to keep it as vague as possible as I know what usually happens when certain ideology is challenged and hope it does not get deleted.

Or people just bought the Black Panther figures, lol. It's not like Hasbro hasn't had female or minority figures that pegwarmed in the past.

If we are using the argument that Hasbro is only pretending the Black Panther Legends sold well because of politics, that still wouldn't explain why they did a second wave when the white heroes generally haven't gotten those either.

I believe it was stated that Ronan is Gamestop/select-internet exclusive. He's not listed on HTS.

I got the classic BP and it's pretty fantastic. Some of the plastic, at least on mine, is pretty gummy but overall a physically solid figure and it's great that you can choose whether he wears the cape, just the necklace, or neither.

Agreed. What makes me laugh is this claptrap being offered based on conjecture and opinion. No evidence. No facts. No sales data. No reporting. Just the "feeling" that a company would spend money paying people to remove items from the shelf and take them somewhere to hold, or I guess recycle (???) all for the purpose of promoting politics. That's rich. "Deep toy-state," right?

There is no business that I'm aware of that functions that way. And if there were, they'd be out of business pretty quickly. Funnier still is that when you offered two sources that supported and buttressed your opinion about BP wave sales (one of the articles being from Forbes), this guy refused to read it citing it as propaganda. I'm not certain how you declare something to be propaganda before even knowing what it says.

It's one thing to spout ill-conceived, uncorroborated nonsense from a place of general ignorance. Maybe you just aren't very well-read nor bright. No bigge, with work, we can all improve ourselves. However, when someone is presented with information that directly confronts the validity of their beliefs and they categorically refuse to digest it, well, that's when I start wondering about "propaganda" and hidden (not so hidden) "agendas."

Why interject skewed politics and flawed logic into something as innocuous and meaningless as toys and comics? The question's a rhetorical one, I fully understand why someone would behave in this manner. We (and by "we," I mean reasonable people of all stripes - liberal/moderate/conservative) have a serious problem brewing. This sickness of intolerance is growing...and it's becoming necessary to spot these faux arguments and see them for what they are: the "true" propaganda.

You want to present your thoughts, do so with factual aplomb. Because I'm actually openminded, I'll review whatever it is. But when all you can give me is anecdotal testimony, coupled with a resistance to digesting credible information, then I start looking at your agenda. (that "agenda" seems to rear its head every two months or so, here...and it's from the usual suspects)

Augustus_Cole 07-16-2018 02:51 AM

Sent u a PM... but anyway
I couldn't get them to stack
???

Erland 07-16-2018 03:21 AM

Each code I texted them, they sent a link to a 16 digit code. I put each code into the apply code section of the shopping cart and it adjusted my price for each one. I added the $20 off one last.

Oh, BTW I found these in /r/funkopop after someone posted them on TFW2005. I had to look it up cause I had no idea what 827438 was and they didn't mention it in their post.

Augustus_Cole 07-16-2018 04:08 AM

I did the same...they still wont stack for me.

sh002 07-16-2018 07:23 AM

The Target codes have been used up or Target caught on and they no longer work.

Augustus_Cole 07-16-2018 07:59 AM

okay so..

#1. @ Erland..thanks for the hookups..even though they are kaput now..

#2. @sh002..you're right..they no longer work...SO. i went back to my phone which was still logged in from earlier this morning..and i still had the 20.00 off coupon applied to my final amount..just proceded to complete the order and they did take the 20.00 off plus free shipping so at least there is that.
I'll get me a Yellow-Jacket now...(cause i wasn't paying 50.00 for that 2-pack)

Hasbrotoyshop had some pretty fast shipping on these guys. I'll wait for retail and probably clearance before going after Thor/Sif, but Crossbones and Yellowjacket were instant must-haves for me.

I got mine to work, Yellow jacket, Sif, and Red Skull for 39 and change.

I am fully expecting order cancellations. Target normally honors mistakes but we all know when we did this it wasn't intentional and shouldn't be working. But who knows maybe they'll ship out whatever sold.

Can Yellowjacket's laser armatures go over his shoulders like they were in the movie?

Exodus 07-16-2018 10:58 AM

It's as if Hasbro is getting lazy with the SDCC stuff for Marvel, but at least they keep kicking out good retail stuff which is probably better :P

I was able to squeeze in my order between server overloads. Hope it actually went through. I've had this set in my wish list for months waiting for a deal like this.

ariellagunas 07-16-2018 03:23 PM

@Blue Mravel: Amen ten times.

En Sabah Nerd 07-16-2018 03:27 PM

While $46 is certainly a great deal for four figures I just don't want any of them enough to actually get it. I'm only actually interested in half the set so while the price is ideal I'd be stuck with two other figures when there's a rush of new products I want much more.

redfox 07-16-2018 03:55 PM

Ugh, just my luck. I was this close to getting Dagger from Amazon for $19.99, but was then blasted with another round of the "doggy oopsie" pages. When I finally managed to lose the pups, she's back up to $42.99. :rolleyes:

Scamazon is down again. Hahahaha. Ya thats a good way to boost sales. :rolleyes

sh002 07-16-2018 05:07 PM

I signed in with the amazon app and they gave me $10 off so the total was $40.36 shipped after tax.

Earlier this morning I got a Tiger Stripe Wolverine from another site for $6.62 shipped after tax.

Plus a lot of people have been wanting certain characters from the movie, so this is their chance to get them.

I disagree, the movie came out like 6 months ago, we've never gotten a Wave 2 this late. I don't think it's a smart business move.

Spyne98 07-16-2018 06:37 PM

I just saw the possible news of the second Black Panther wave. Very odd that it would come out now. I really want to see what SDCC has in store. I feel we could use a new Dr. Doom. What was the other comic based figure again?
Edit- it would probably help if I watched the video. Why bother saying “I have news” if you can’t talk about it. Some Youtubers bug me to no end. The pics were smei-helpful, but there were totally more than 6 characters given in the video.

I think Hasbro is just trying to come up wih some kind of theme for an end of the year wave since Spiderman, Avengers, and Deadpool are all getting two waves this year.
