That or showdown venom you prefer? Finally purchased a series 1 spiderman. Probably start goblin shopping next

Don't have either, but looking at 'em online: SHS has more pose and arguably better paint apps, the fiercest foes toxic blast venom has less pose but looks a little better standing (I like the head better too). So far I'd say if I had to get a Venom I'd try to find the stretch strike Venom (best sculpt I think and the biggest). For the Green Goblin I use the ASM comic line missile strike figure, since I found it at a Ross for $4 and it has pretty good sculpting.

Ross recent or back in the day? Don't think my Ross has any figures recently other than gotg

Stretch strike looks pretty wild

Late April, I don't imagine it being much online now though. The only con I could think of was the lack of his man-purse, which isn't totally needed, but I dug up an old Star Wars accessory for him.

got offered a trade and was wanting some input....

5 of the HYDRA army builders I LOVE LOVE LOVE
2 A.I.M. Soldiers
4 MU Skrulls (not movie)
and a decent (not great) Super Skrull
and???? (he said 5 other COMMON type figures) and we need stuff for customs

For a complete mint baf GIANT MAN of mine and my son. He isnt too into him and we ALWAYS need more army builders. We got the GIANT MAN for cheap cheap cheap. We are geared towards almost entirely AVENGERS in our collections (with S.H.I.E.L.D.,AIM,HYDRA SKRULLS and 90's X-Men)....now we have an AntMan...do we need a GIANT MAN? I think so, AND just got his hand (the last piece Friday!!!) I think he is vital to have. If I get the builders I know at SOME point we will be looking for GIANT MAN again.Also, you dont really get that YES feeling when get more army builders that are not the end of your build.... thoughts?

Hey ukmu - my collection is centred around the Avengers like yours and I have Hank Pym represented by all his identites - Ant Man, Giant-man, Goliath and Yellowjacket.

I just think Hank Pym is such a big part of Avengers history, and the fact he changes identities so often is also a big part of Avengers history that any Avengers collection needs them all.

But then I know you are big into army building so its a tough call.

You could always pretend the Ant Man is Scott Lang or Eric O'Grady.

UKMU, I KNOW you and your and son LOVE army builders but KEEP the Giantman he is hard to get for cheap and just plain hard to get as you can see by the trade this guy is trying to make. I would keep it.

I wouldn't do it for those but I think anything more than 5 is a waste of money lol

I'm a noobie and I don't even think that's a good trade

Keep the Giant-man, sir! As a low-end collector, I can try to find the ones listed for the trade but NOT that damn BAF.

While on the giant man subject has anyone tried to put the legends head on the universe body? I have the red and blue MU gigantic battles goliath I would love to do a head swap and then start to hunt for the yellow and blue goliath.

Keep Giant Man. I am working on Giant Man BAF set now. I still need Capt Britain and Wolverine with normal head. Those figs are hard to come by anyway and getting super expensive. The Marvel Girl and Kitty are going up in price by the week it seems. I would hang onto it if you are thinking about getting it down the road. It's only gonna get worse.

right...... you guys convinced me. i was having a momentary HYDRA relapse i guess!!! Thanks for the 'intervention' gang!!! I am weak and need help from time to time!

cheers!!!! I guess it was SO lucky that i got the figure for next to nothing and only missing a left hand, which isnt a hard piece to get that I didnt appreciate him as much as I should have. I do respect his quality and rarity, just is hard getting to my 30 HYDRA troopers and thought...maybe. I guess something inside said no, that is why i asked.... thanks again for setting me back on track.

Avengers...... Assembled (still)

Cool. Nice that you got him cheap only missing the hand.

That looks good and is air assault Hobgood in the other one in that line? So much better price compared to MU ones

I don't have any Hobgoblin figures right now, but he looks alright.

I was also wrong about the name of the figure I have, it's actually called "glider attack Green Goblin", and it's the only GG I have, but here it is next to the MU version anyway.


I have no idea how good the Green Goblin from the Spider-Man fiercest foes line is, but the ASM looks great and sizes well (even without the man-purse).

Ah no pumpkin too :( not bad though

Yeah, but that doesn't bother me so much. The glider is a much more iconic part of the Goblin character, and this one is one of the largest in this scale (compared to the MU glider at least). I also find that the ASM goblin's head sculpt is better than the MU by a good bit. All in all it's not too different than the MU skrull vs Avengers skrull, MU has better pose and paint, movie line has better sculpt and presence.

the SHS one is nice..... i dont have it, but it looks cool. If i were to ever get Spidey 3.75" figures, that is the one I would go for. We one 1 Spider-Man in our Avengers.

I don't know if you guys and gals already know about this, but here goes...
