Another Hasblo F#@%up,the people running the MU line now have NO F@%king clue.Distribution:TERRIBLE,LOTs OF QC problems, Case assortments JOKE(not funny though) that and nobody there seems to know what the hell is going on. I think they probably went to a local bar at SDCC and pulled some idiots out to work their booth. They really must be paying peanuts because they have alot of monkeys working there. Someone should sue them for false advertising in this case. You could make a case that you took the trip to NYCC for the sole purpose of buying their advertised product and when you got there what were you offered . DOOM. Classic Bait and Switch. Would be a nutty lawsuit but it might actually win, and maybe just maybe someone higher in the Hasbro or Marvel(this mess is giving Marvel a blackeye too)hiearchy would take a long look at how a sure money maker is being totally f@%ked up.

Hasbro isn't at nycc this year

You should have seen the people on line when they found out the wasn't an old man Logan.
When I bought the subscription he gave me the doom box, and said we don't have a choice btwn Logan and doom? He than told me it was a rumor smh

Just remember: the Old Man Logan issue is with Marvel, not Hasbro. While I think it is stupid to offer the same figure 2 years in a row at NYCC, it wasn't that long ago people were crying because they couldn't get a maskless doom. The truth is that they obviously have a glut of this figure and are trying to unload them on fans who have little else to spend their money on. A lawsuit would fail because it was Hasbro, not Marvel, that advertised the figure - and it was media outlets that suggested it would be at NYCC.

I actually have LIKED the case assortments this year. The figures are really great. Sure, there is always QC issues with Hasbro that crosses all the toy lines - it is just part of the 4" scale, I guess because all the smaller figures have this.

Lastly, remember that SDCC is HTS and not - technically - Hasbro. Sure, they are connected but there is a reason they make that distinction.

I would have more than likely asked them to cancel the subscription then. If they were aware of the rumor, a simple sign or announcement would have been courteous. It wouldn't help folks that were there ONLY for Logan but at least they wouldn't have wasted their time in line and signing up only to be disappointed.

IT WASNT a RUMOR, The HASBLO slide show at SDCC clearly and definitely showed Old Man Logan at NYCC. That was NOT Marvel it was Hasblo. Another really stupid thing they do is date their waves, why do it if you know the figures will never be released on the target dates. It just pisses people off. But if there is one thing Hasbro is getting better at and that is pissing everyone off.

Maybe your right, maybe the issue is between Marvel and Hasbro, Hasbro contracted to do the Old Man Logan at NYCC for the Marvel sub and then proceeded to do what Hasbro does best . Maybe someone at Marvel should ask them what the hell happened and find out why the MU line has some many issues.

I haven't had a problem finding any of the new figures in my area at all.

My point is that Marvel is the one selling the figures. Hasbro may very well had them for Marvel and ready to go ... but Marvel wanted to sell through their stock of Doom figures first. (That's not just my guess - that is what Marvelous News is suggesting.) In other words, Hasbro went with what they knew - that Marvel wanted this new figure for NYCC and so they made it. They can't control what Marvel does after.

About the waves: you do realize some of that is retail asking them to hold off on releasing the figures. As it was, some of the waves indeed were released by the dates on the cards - just not in the US or not consistently. Most assume that the Avengers and Spider-Man caused a change. I guess you could get upset about the dates being wrong, but I tend to get MORE upset figures like Sif and Heimdall that don't make it to retail at all! As long as they get to local stores, I can't complain because there are some many people who could cause them to be delayed - not the least, the stock room kid who is lazy and doesn't want to put out more toys.

Personally, I try not to let something trivial like an action figure get my blood pressure up when there is so much more going on that is far more important.

must be nice.

I wonder if Hasbro gives the job of running MU to a different person every month...

Heh. I never saw that Cage in person. Is he breaking up a fight or refereeing?

Finally after a several month long mu drought I brought home a miles morales from my lcs today. Just six more new ones I need and will never see.

What do you need exactly? I'm finding all of 18 and 19 at retail (except the Spidey variants).

I think things were better when Vonner was running MU. Sigh.

Anyways, on with the appreciation. Finally got around to snapping some pics.
Avengers!!!!

Ultimates

So effin sick!! Easily kne of my favorite MU team pics from you. You really brought out the detail in these figures by adding wrist rotation to Thor and Hawkeye (not sure if you did Cap) and by painting Thor's Hammer. Oh yeah, and providing Hawkeye with a more badass tech bow.

Symbiote seems to be the gold standard of awesome. His title is no foolin lol

I got a bunch of guns from marauders the other day. The grenade launcher was too good to pass up. Those guys are awesome. you buy guns, but they always give you extras. ten dollar order I got the AA-12 shotgun with drum mag and fore-grip

Great pic. Love what you did with Thor's hammer.

I have that enterprise bridge moc I was hoping mu would scale better but they look like giants on deck

What do you need exactly? I'm finding all of 18 and 19 at retail (except the Spidey variants).

I'm looking for Kang, Scarlett Witch, Beast, Kraven, She hulk and Beta ray bill. I only have the budget to get one or two a week but so far all I've seen are two punishers.

Good ish Sym, always killin it as usual..

Thanks for pointing out the modification work, lol. Your usually the one who gives the nod of approval. I went on a wrist modifying binge with the avengers figures and xmo.

Thanks for the comments guys on the ultimates. I really liked how the pic turned out. I'm getting a bit better with using the manual focus on my camera.

Love marauderinc. Affordable prices and good service. I may have to get a grenade launcher too.

it was on clearance at tru for $13. Decent price but I wanted to make the red, blue to get a feel for the helicarrier bridge look.

I strongly agree about Vonner and am not looking forward to when they run out of the work he left behind for MU or ML. That is one badass pic!!!
