I am up for the challenge of finding a Colton with a nicely painted face.

wow, now i'm afraid to go to Target...my wallet can't take that kind of temptation!

....I want that Nova. Im a big Nova fan, and the likeness is very close to his original costume.

On some early prototype photos of Ultimate Firefly, he had Rise of Cobra Storm Shadow's jacket, but painted green. It doesn't look like that mold choice made the final cut. Can you confirm this? If so, I am disappointed. I was really looking forward to having that jacket in a dark earthy tone. Granted, I'm not entirely certain what the difference is between Cobra Invasion Firefly and Ultimate Firely, if any; but every part looks identical, except for the jacket - possibly.

EDIT: Scratch that. I think I figured it out.
Ultimate Firely and Invasion Firefly are different, but use the same head, arms, legs, and backpack.

I would pass on all that, IM3 junk being the stuff I would avoid. But that AT-ST pack is nice. Got it back before Christmas.

If anyone has some extras, even with sloppy paint, let me know. I can think of some customs for that one...... ;)

Never seen these figures before. Very close to the original animated figure, didn't have a name though. Just said Batman on a plain card

Passing up on those IM3 and USM figures...

Funnily enough, I saw about a zillion of this guy during lunch today... And passed, because I was after the Arkham City Ra's.

I passed up 3 today because they were each slightly cross-eyed. I would be happy to send you one if you don't find any in your town. The rest of the paint on Colton was very nice.

Well I have yet to look, and there a quite a few stores around here. So I will look this weekend. But I may just wait until they go on clearance, which should be in the summer-early fall. There are so many figures for customs I haven't done yet. :p

But if all else fails I will turn to the Ark for one.

Last time i was at Target, they had just finished their new reset, and I begrudgingly left empty handed cause it was all crap.

I believe some have reported seeing this strangeness at TRU lately.
Saw all of the 2005 Cult Classics series 2 at TRU today, they must be old warehouse finds or something because the packaging it turning yellow in quite a lot of them, but 12.99$ is a good price.

Was very happy to see the GI JOE Kre-o arrive, I only bought a few blind bags and the checkpoint set.

^ great finds, Phantomcrow. I would've picked up that T2 SDCC exclusive though! Funny, one of the TRU's down by me has the same NECA Cult Classics series. So random!!! But some of those figures go for decent prices on eBay.

Tempted to get some of those Joe Kre-Os.

There were almost 20 of the SDCC T2 figure and about a dozen of the Gears splatterhead and what had to be 3 or 4 each of the Cult Classics. I thought of grabbing some of the CC to sell/trade, but if they are showing up a lot now I expect the price to plummet with them being $13 bucks at TRU.

Found the Nova wave at the local high priced toy shop. They wanted $30 for Nova and they had three of them. Heck, they wanted $20 for Puck! In person, Puck is smaller than I expected. I also saw a mountain of Costco Quinjets that they wanted $40 for. They obviously bought these things the week after Christmas when Costco was getting rid of them for like $8.

On the plus side they had a Punisher with a broken arm for $5. The other arm was fine so I picked it up to fix the broken Punisher I already have. Figure I can also use the legs for something.

^^^Overpriced new figures still make me a little angry. I haven't seen any waves of MU past the Scarlet Witch wave.

@ Phantomcrow- that photo of the Headshot Drone really made me laugh. It would have been great to have a toy like that crash my sisters' Barbie parties when were kids.
And I will definitely get that Kano just to have him next to some of my Terminators.

Saw the entire wave last night at Toys R Us. They had two of each. Have to admit though, some sloppy paint apps on them. Some were worse than others, but none were perfect. For anyone in Miami who's interested, it was the TRU at International Mall.

Passed up Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters Voyager Predaking at Walmart plus a Halo 4 Master Chief and Elite figure at Targert. No idea why.

Passing on a Nova right now? That takes brass balls.

wasn't the wave with pro x due out before these? i been outta the MU game for awhile lol

Sort of. Technically that is the next wave and will ship later but a small amount of the Prof X wave shipped early.

ahhh ok cool. thanx for clearing that up. just lookin for him, jubilee and rogue from the 3pack and im done with MU

Entire Ultimate Spider-Man line. Just ew.

EDIT: These HAVE been sighted at retail before, right? I wasn't sure, so I took pics just in case.

Probably out for a bit but I had not seen the new Wal-Mart Skylanders Giants exclusive. He is very cute.
