Just because a retro FF wave would have 6 figures doesn't mean we'll ONLY receive 6 figures. There were only 6 figures in the retro Spiderman wave but thanks to the fan channel and Target, we've gotten an additional 6 figures for a grand total of 12 retro Spiderman figures.

For the retro FF wave, I don't know what will be main line or fan channel but I think we'll see:
The Fantastic Four (duh)
Puppet Master (retool of suited body)
Alicia Masters (retool of Gwen or Mary Jane)
Terrax (re-release of the BAF)
She Hulk in FF costume
Blastaar (SDCC re-release)

I could also see a Skrull army builder released as a Pulse exclusive.

In the original 90s toy line, Sue, Ben, and Johnny each had multiple releases. Sue came solid (opaque) and transparent. Johnny came fully on fire and partially on fire from the waist down. Ben came in his trunks, in his trench coat with a fedora, and in his FF tank top and pants. I could see some version of these released as fan channel exclusives.

I suspect at least two of the FF characters will be in the wave. I don't think they'll make all four again right away.

I would be surprised if it was, given that he's confirmed to be a major character in the show. All the leaked characters in the wave correspond to someone in the D+ shows, so I assume that's what they'll be.

Unless Hasbro throws a curveball and has both the MCU and comic versions of U.S. Agent in the wave.

What about Diablo for that retro wave?

As long as they do a flamming Johnny that doesn't kind of suck, I don't care how they do a new FF wave.

Hopefully we also get Mole Man and Ramma-Tut.

One thing to note though is that we already have a fully invisible Invisible Woman. :D

Several things I’ve noticed from shopping online from Target and to look out for after you order: you can get an unexpected email saying there was an error on their end and they automatically cancel the order, the item can come damaged, or they will put stupid bar code stickers over the item packaging. Also if you do order pickup, they can still cancel your order if the item can’t be found in the store or the item was used to fulfill another person’s order.

The bar code they stuck on my Rogue peeled off super easy with no damage to the card, they did shift my pickup order to a different store though

Picked up Rogue and Gambit tonight!! Whew hoo!!

Wrong thread

For retro Invisible Woman, Human Torch and Thing, Hasbro could do some variants for them.

Got the buy two get one free from Target and had them ready 4hrs later (was a great reason to grab Cyborg Spidey- free!) And got Felicia from hasbro Pulse and an Extreme set from BBTS. (The Extreme set is... OK... not crazy about the doors- the interior of the door doesn't really fit right- leaving large blank cardboard gaps- probably won't pick up any more than this)

“.....and beans.”

the more i see gambit and rogue the more i want them , god dam it

Now is a good time. Target seemed to have saturated the market to drown the scalpers. I’ve seen them 8 to 12 figures each at several targets in my area.

All the rogues have been cleaned out at my local targets. Scalpers here are like flies on shit with new stuff, especially legends. Its why i dont even bother going out most of the time because these ginourmous asshats get to the shit before anyone.

Some stores apparently have them on a red display box, but none of mine have that. One just put them on an endcap and yesterday they had 6 Gambits, 1 Rogue, 12 Storms, 5 Negative Spideys, and 5 Cyborg Spideys.

Another store just put them on the empty peghooks in the regular isle while the other one is only pulling figures out of the back if you bring them the DPCI.

Yes to all of this.
Also, Maybe if they do a vintage Hulk wave, we'll get a new Abomination on the BAF body with a better head. I recently got the BAF in a trade and it really, really needs a more comic accurate head.

So apparently Hasbro thinks they can make enough of Gambit Marvel Legends figures but at the same time they made less or re-releasing a limited number of Rogue figures at the same time.

Thats pretty messed up.

But somehow an older Marvel Selects Rogue looks about the same and is cheaper to get off of amazon etc

I dont have a target here in the UK

Rogue was mostly shipped in equal or larger amounts than Gambit in my area. The problem is that noone asked for the Gambit, while everyone was clamoring for Rogue, hence why Gambit is sitting and Rogue is non-existent.

The Select doesn't look all that different true, but is gonna require a bit of modding if you want her to fit in with your display, unless you don't mind a seven foot Rogue hanging out in the back somewhere...

Wasn't Rogue a TRU exclusive outside the US? Does the UK have TRU still?

One of my recent Omnibuses finally came in:

Nope. Each figure is in its own case. So a case of all Gambits. A case of all Storms. A case of all Rogues. ETC. The Target I got my Rogue and Gambit from got in 2 cases of Storm and 1 case of everyone else.

Gambit and Rogue
 

Rogue and Gambit arrived. Thank you Target for having enough stock so I could place my order. I like both versions of Rogue but like the new one better. The colors on the new Rogue pop. The new hands are cool. The new wrists on Gambit are great. Never understood why they wrists the wrong way on the original. The new Gambit needs his 5 o'clock shadow. The neck on the original is very loose. The new Gambit stands better on his own.

90% sure TRU is dead over here, and the ML's they had were lacking

I guess we can run a top 10 wants after Friday's stream right? Holding off on it for now since one of the rumors (if shown) would knock one of my top 10 out.

BTW, the Mezco Lockjaw is fantastic. But HEAVY. Weighs almost as much as one of the teeny tiny pocket dogs (my aunt had yorkies so I know of what I speak.) Would have been interesting to have seen the reaction between Lockjaw and my dog, but a few weeks too late for that. Ah, who am I kidding, he was nearly 15...he would have raised his head and went back to sleep....collectibles were never high on his priorities.

Today's Target pick-ups. No Rogues for many miles, but I've already got one on the way now so it's cool.
