Plus, in Target's eyes, it doesn't matter who or what the character is, what matters is that they have stock sitting on the pegs because it is all under the same item code. They wouldn't know if it was Spider-Man, Superman, to their asses, it is all the same UPC if it is in the same package.

Kraven, Captain America and (possibly) Namor :)

There are multiple Spider-Woman figures and GOTG Wave Iron Man in my area. If you want me to grab you some, let me know.

I didn't get into Marvel Legends until this year, so I didn't buy them back when they came out because I didn't know about them. I was kind of busy with other stuff. This is the first year I have even touched a Marvel comic since Brand New Day came out. Let alone do anything with Marvel outside of the movies.

Nova is cool, i just started thinking about adding some of the oddball characters to my shelves. and as for the iron man, i was thinking of doing a Hall of Armor shelf so to speak in my man cave.

the problem with getting some of these figures online, you never know how the paint will look and some of the prices for them are slighty going up. i should check amazon as well. didn't think about that because im constantly on ebay.

What these guys said. You would be surprised what you can find if you are patient on ebay. I snagged the Rocket BAF for under 20 bucks and I also collect DCD/DCUC and snagged Salakk for 30 when he regularly goes for 80. It involves some diligence and patience but it's doable. Also consider looking for lots. Sometimes you can get a lot with a figure you want for not much more than the cost of the lone figure. Granted they are usually loose but in good condition and you end up with other figures too. This is nicer if you like customizing though.



Even though you called Nova an oddball I will still give ya some info LOL. Amazon has actually been really good to me as far as figures are concerned. I would not buy from them if I was a MOC collector as the boxes are not in the best shape but the figures have been good. I got Grim Reaper in yesterday and the paint apps were perfect. Same thing with others. If you have Prime then Amazon is awesome.

I suddenly have an urge to find a Civil War era Iron Man and have Nova pummel the crud out of him like he should have in the comic.

He's not a oddball, just an oddball for myself... never been a big nova, but i realize he is definitely one of those powerful and respected cosmic marvel characters. i actually got his entire series and first appearance from a friend who didn't want comics anymore a few months ago. i think the current Nova figure looks awesome !! too bad they got rid of Richard rider Nova, that Kid nova is just blah.... not sure if you follow comics it looks like a new Richard rider nova series is coming out with the kid nova in it as well.

Unfortunately no, from what I read the new Nova series by Sean Ryan and Cory Smith will feature the new Nova and his dad, not Richard Rider. I wish they'd bring back Richard instead of this just mediocre Sam Alexander punk, but it seems like Marvel is showing favor to the kid Nova because he's in that cartoon. It only hurts that much more when they actually showed us what happened post Thanos Imperative in the Cancerverse and his death now seems meaningless and poor. New Nova sucks, bring back Nova Prime!

Today I got the other prototype unreleased bodies from the Fleabay Chinese seller. Again very fast shipping and they're legit. No knock offs. Here's some pics of Lyra completely painted body (minus head, that ones from the she hulk next to her) and the Phoenix unreleased mold. That one was not completely painted, but did use gold parts. I don't know why Hasbro dumped Lyra, she looks really good, much better than the red she hulk, although that she hulk shown on the pic is a knock off I purchased also from fleabay.
