Darwin and Vulcan but not Petra and Sway :rolleyes:

Did everyone see the Marvel membership Kate Pryde exclusive?

We had a small conversation about it a couple of pages ago.

That's so cool! Congratulations!

As an update, I read on The Fwoosh message boards in the "Rumored 2022 X-Wave" thread that Vulcan has been listed a rumor by Marvelous News and that we might get a Retro Spider-Man figure of Lizard in 2022. However, Lizard is rumored to be a Walmart exclusive. I really, REALLY hope he isn't a Walmart exclusive. Also, board member Jtprime17 said that the rumored Toy Biz Marvel Legends 20th anniversary Captain America will not be an exclusive and will be his own thing, along with 12 other characters. I have no idea if that means we'll be getting at least 13 total Toy Biz Marvel Legends 20th anniversary figures or 12 more currently-unrevealed Marvel Legends figures to be announced soon.

What do you guys think of this news?

I hope you all are having a great day and stay safe, everyone.

Someone on TFW made a hint that Lizard would be a Walmart figure the other day.

As for the X wave, sounds like Siryn is it for me unless it's first appearance Sabertooth.

I know I've commented about the X-men wave leaks/rumors/whatever they actually are over the last week, even noting them as potential "news" here. But the whole process is a bit strange. One or two figures I can see, but I'm half wondering if someone is pulling our leg on this. Like after the 7th "reveal" they're going to say "just kidding, these are bogus, I have no idea what's in the next X-Men wave". I'm not saying the line up couldn't happen, but the whole reveal process is just odd.

Edit: I know it's not actually a reveal because it's not official Hasbro info. But hopefully you all understood that.

I dig the potential "scoops". They do seem pretty random though.

I do have to admit that seeing Maggot has me tickled. I very much dug the Kelly/Seagle run at the time for as short as it was.

My sentinel finally touched down. Damn, I wasn't ready for how big this box actually is, nor did I truly appreciate the gorgeous artwork until getting this in-hand. The box is stunning. Haven't had the time to really unbox the big guy, but I plan to really soon. :D:D:D

Glad you got yours! Yeah, when Fedex delivered mine I was a bit shellshocked at the size of the box too. It's a bit daunting, even after taking it out of the first two shipping/hasbro boxes. I'm glad that they took the time to make sure it was going to arrived undamaged though!

I never would have guessed that we would get Siryn before Banshee. And I pray that the BAF isn't a must have like Blob or something.

I feel like I'm the last person that is going to get their Sentinels. What the fuck hasbro?

We did get Banshee first, it just wasn't good.

^ Oh right... that was even a Hasbro release too... and truth be told... I don't think that old Banshee fig is that bad... like if that was the only Banshee we ever got... I could probably live with it in my X-men display. And with the old Banshee being his green costume I actually think that makes it more likely that any new Banshee will be his yellow and gold X-men costume.

Call me crazy, but I'd actually prefer that. Don't get me wrong, I'd be ecstatic either way, but the blue and gold is my era.

I ordered six (over three separate orders) and haven’t seen or heard anything about shipping. I’m pretty antsy myself.

^I ordered 5, over two separate orders and the only update has been a simple listing of the carrier on the first order of 3. I was going to mention earlier that it seems as though single orders might be taking priority, but that's largely just conjecture on my part, so I chose not to comment.

Interesting that you got around the limit. I'd read about that being a workaround only after the campaign ended and may have ordered more had the slight bit of subterfuge dawned on me. I tried to order six Galactus figs via the method you employed, however Hasbro set up a more sophisticated system this time around and tagged me as reaching the 5/per limit.

I think the limitation is silly, especially in your case as a retailer. If people want to buy multiples for personal collections, or resale I see no problem with it. Many collectors were grousing about the price anyway, with some even seemingly cheering for failure. If enthusiasts want to contribute to pushing something over the finish line, we should be allowed to do so unfettered.

Supposedly orders are being fulfilled in reverse-order, so the last backers get theirs first, dunno if that's true or not!

Lol "Hasbro style!"

Now Amazon is saying Final Battle Thor won't ship for 1-2 months with a delivery window of Oct 8th-25th. I still hope my September 23-24th delivery date is still good.

I backed 2 additional Sentinels on a separate order, so 2 orders total, at the very end of the campaign. I have no tracking number or shipping notification. So I don't think that order fulfillment method is true.

They said everyone should have their orders by the end of September so I'm sitting patiently.

Seems right

5 galactuseseses ? I knew ya wouldnt forget about me. ;) hahahahaha.

For what it's worth I've seen items on Amazon before that change from pre-order to back-order and claim they won't arrive for another month or two but then like a week later it would change again to a date significantly closer. No guarantee the same will happen with Thor here but it's a scenario I've experienced multiple times.

I believe that the Final Battle Thor figure just went back up in stock on Hasbro Pulse, so maybe you can find it there? I hope that helps.

My friend ordered his long after me and I got mine before him. I don't know if there's any rhyme or reason to this.
