I didn't see those big sets, but i did get Doctor Doom Masher for just $9.99!!! also got Captain America, and Thor (who was in the $15 group)

trebleshot 12-30-2013 09:53 AM

From what I can tell, there are three different price points with these Mash-Ups. There's the "basic" version for around $10 (Cap), the deluxe version at $15-ish (Iron Patriot, Hulk, et. al.) and the Electronic ones at $20 or so (Wolverine and Iron Man). The higher the price point, the more accessories included.

Saw all three at TRU over the weekend. Still no Doom, though.

Marvel
 
In my area, the Marvel Legends Deadpool wave arrived and disappeared almost overnight (all except for Neo-Classic Iron Man), and the Hit Monkey wave was practically a no-show, but the Rocket Raccoon wave keeps slowly trickling into my area. I keep finding random figures at random Wal-Marts. Passed on the Jean because I bought her from Hasbro Toy Shop months ago, and I probably would have grabbed Wrecker if Black Panther had been there too (so I could finish Rocket Raccoon).
BTW, those aren't the ML price tags below the figures, lol. This was just the closest shelf that was big enough to hold these four for the pic.

Also, I spotted these Cloaks at another Wal-Mart.

I just saw the $20 Wolverine and Iron Man yesterday...and passed.
I also saw the $10 Hawkeye...and BOUGHT.

Phantomcrow 01-04-2014 09:47 PM

I really wanted to pick these up, but they looked like they had been put on the shelf buy a 2 year old. The packages were torn and crushed badly. Normally I would not care, but I will not open these since they are not new characters and the package design is about the best MH has ever done. But they are Target Exclusives so they will be all over the place shortly.

That Hawkeye is more red instead of purple, right? Based on the Ultimates/movie version? I think I saw one earlier as I glanced at the Mashers stuff.

I wish they were to scale with the upcoming DC Total Heroes stuff. Those two lines have a very similar look, if memory serves. I'd be all over those Mashers if I was still a kid - I loved the mix n' match Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots toys when I was younger.

Yup I pass on those all the time ^:P

Looks like the Total Heroes line has finally hit stores :p
I saw these at TrU today. Honestly, they aren't nearly as bad as I had anticipated, but they are FAR from being what I would consider to be "good" figures. But, with the popularity of Mattel's generic Batman line and Hasbro's Marvel Super Hero Mashers line, I guess that there's a market for these. Lol, I don't get the appeal of ANY of those aforementioned figure lines, but I'm sure that I've posted pics of plenty of purchases that have made other Arkers ask "what was he thinking ?" :)

Frank Richards 01-14-2014 10:52 PM

For all of the Adam West-era Batman fans out there, I found this at Target ! I had no idea that Mattel had released a Ken doll dressed as 60's TV Batman! I typically don't buy Barbies, lol, but this is just so awesomely campy, that if the price gets any lower, I just may have to buy him!

If the costume isn't too tight, it might look great on my Captain Action figure !

What's with all these figures coming out from DC and Marvel? I guess they're trying to cater to all ages.

trebleshot 01-15-2014 07:28 AM

Seems like a shift in marketing strategy, which makes sense from a business perspective. This might even be a topic worth discussing in a separate thread.

On a separate note, I'm frankly amazed that that TH Batman actually comes with not one but three accessories.

MegaPrime33 01-15-2014 08:01 AM

Thankfully I haven't needed to pass on anything since my local TRU hasn't restocked since before christmas.

What a disappointment those Zombies were, 4 points of articulations!

trebleshot 01-15-2014 12:33 PM

Odd. You'd think they'd be at the same level as the COD soldiers. On the other hand, typical zombies really don't really do much beyond a shuffling walk (or the occasional sprint, if you like that sort of thing). YMMV, I guess.

behindthemask 01-15-2014 06:52 PM

Will a super masher head fit/work on a ML body?

I'm not really too sure why everyone is hating on these? Is it only because of the articulation? If so, man have we as collectors become spoiled, because these are not really all that bad. They're definitely better than the Target Exclusive Justice League figures.

I kinda dig the stylized look of the characters, and I think the packaging on these is really awesome, they're perfect for a nice wall display. These figs remind me a lot of the Toybiz superhero figs of the late 90's, not quite Marvel Legends, but not 1970's Kenner figures either. They're miles ahead of the atrocious movie Batman and Superman figures we got last year.

And holy crap...that Batman actually comes with a grapnel gun, and not one...but TWO batarangs!!!

This line would have made a great supplemental series alongside the DCU line, but I think that many of us just feel as if Mattel is moving backwards in regard to design and quality. Honestly, these figures truly don't deserve a lot of the criticism being thrown their way, but I think most people are lashing out due to anger at Mattel's poor treatment, and resultant cancellation of the DCU line. These perfectly adequate figures have become a scapegoat, largely because they have, in a sense, replaced a very popular line that many feel was greatly mismanaged.

I'm not hating, but "sigh" is my reaction when I see those yet what I'm waiting (dreaming) for is MU-quality DC figures. That's just the opposite of my wish-list :)
