Toyark Toy Forums - Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

Well, here are the unheard-of variants that I've encountered at my local TRU which I'm sure is similar to those in Singapore since our TRU supplier runs from there.

The set that it was displayed as were these two figs as well as the new head variant Wolverine [Xavier Institute] as well as Extremis Iron Man.

I'm one of those 'in the box' kinda collectors so I can't really tell which details make it a variant but the notable ones are the blue linings on thor's costume and blue lightning like paintscheme on the hammer.

My guess is that they were leftover thors that were repainted to resemble the SDCC11 Marvel Legends exclusive Thor but then again, based on assumption. Haven't gotten any real word on it but when I told my fellow collectors here, they were sold out at TRU.

As for Cap, he's just gotten a brighter blue now compared to the previously released one.

Thanks so much for showing us what you mean. I kinda hope those are just tryouts that we dont' have to hunt for in later revision packs, though with Avengers coming out next year, I think we're going to be neck-deep in Thor, Iron Man, and Cap figures. Which basically means I'll have to get these 'variants' too. :(

I was all ready to give you crap about getting a Sif, and I remembered you're in Canada, so I instead think it's awesome. You guys have to go through a lot of crap to maintain a collection. Great job on the Sif!

Couldn't pass on the Gift set. It's not really that bad. Thor and Cap are color/paint improvements, IM looks just like the Secrete Wars version with no detail on him.

The first thing I did was give that shield to Iron Patriot. Sucks I had to spend $30 to get it but the figs are solid and I can always re gift the set.
