They are very good at putting up the preorders as soon as the official solicit is received if we are able to acquire these statues. I do apologize that I do not have any additional information on this."

Hoping to see the new ones soon, they are popping up on eBay.

I'll get these from HTS myself...

I think the post holiday cash strap, and the "line is dead" sell offs have begun. there's a lot of MOC product out there right now. and nothing is going for insane money loose.... except Vision! I am beginning to loath him.

Dang AA is only 65 haha still too $ for me though, I want another one loose...what the heck the Havok classic version is that cheap now?

Taking another look at the 2015 figures, Black Cat is actually looking like one I might buy multiples of. Lower articulation aside, her proportions are way better than the 2 standard female 3.75 bodies in use by Hasbro (excluding the She-Hulk body). Give her a couple of wrist cut joints and she's good to go.

Dang I may get rid of my ML BC then, although she looks so well proportion haha.

The Draco you speak of is a 5 inch figure. The 3.75" line of Harry Potter figures are not the strongest of figures; plenty of snapped elbows, necks and knees. The articulation is good,as is the sculpt. Coats are a rubbery material, which is doesn't hinder poseabilty. Most figures are students so are in Hogwarts uniform, but Mad Eye, Sirius Black & Dumbledore were also made.

Plenty of custom fodder there though.

samsson37 01-14-2015 03:34 PM

Thanks

ultraman zoffy 01-14-2015 05:14 PM

I forgot that I actually have one of the Potter figures (the Asian female student?) in my fodder bin. If anything, they're a "small" 3.75 scale, kind of more in line with Mattel's Multiverse size than Hasbro MU stuff. Articulation is pretty good from what I recall, but like Jedi said, they seem fragile. My figure actually had a cloth skirt, interestingly enough.

Captain Nash 01-14-2015 06:21 PM

Just got the email on BBTS this wave. They've got the case sets up for February and a few of the figures up for individual purchase. I'm going to hold off on the case sets because I don't want to pay $135 when I only want 4 figures. Beast/Sandman and Spidey are available for individual order for $13 each though, if Bishop were I would likely go this route. Maybe he'll be up later. I'd love to snag him and Beast on this and those prices aren't bad at all individually.]]

Argh Hasbro.....Bishop/Black Cat are one per case in the 12 case set (I thought they weren't going to do that anymore...) so I guess that's why there are no individuals of those. Thanks SO much Hasbro. Reasons like this are why goodwill towards you are dropping so much. Still....very glad to see these up and obviously BBTS cannot help Hasbro's decisions on case packs.

Avengers Infinite 3.75" Figure 2015 Series 01 - Case of 12 - Marvel Figures (Hasbro) Avengers Infinite

sandman and beast variants are one each as well...

Captain Nash 01-14-2015 07:17 PM

Good ninja edit! LOL

kylactus 01-14-2015 07:23 PM

Thank you sir^

Ninjinister 01-14-2015 08:14 PM

I pre-ordered the 1 each set. I wanted them all so this works for me.

kylactus 01-14-2015 09:19 PM

I ordered the case, I figure a free extra Sandman and Beast I can hook someone up with... and I pay for an extra Big Time Spidey for BB gun practice.... damn I hate that figure.

Exodus 01-14-2015 10:02 PM

Debating to get it from there or just wait till HTS gets it. Although looks like the Sandman, Beast and Dark Beast are actual non wave variants, so hopefully HTS will get them individually.

ultraman zoffy 01-14-2015 10:58 PM

Well... guess the 3.75 rage is all gone. Hasbro wins. Lol

kylactus 01-14-2015 11:18 PM

oh the rage is still there... but the addiction is stronger. I imagine it's like if you have a crack dealer who's a total dick. You don't want to deal with him... but he's gots the crack, whatcha gonna do?

samsson37 01-15-2015 07:26 AM

Morning everyone. I have to agree with the addiction aspect... I keep telling myself do i really need 2 different Sandmans..but I kknow if I dont get the other version I'll be kicking myself..Then I try to rationalize it by saying..I cant display both of them in my setup so i dont need both...oh the drama !!!!
Sidenote, I came across this its pretty old but entertaining...Its figure related so i figured I'd post.

I don't know if I'd call mine rage as much just disappointment and frustration. I'm not screaming at anything when I can't buy but I'd rather be buying. My main issue is when there is nothing to buy, for months, and obviously new offerings will take care of that, for a short time. There are other frustrations though, and Kylactus got the addiction analogy right though. Even if it's a poorly made figure of a figure you want, you know there's a good chance you'll buy it (speaking for me only of course.) I can't help myself.

I will go to rehab, before I get skinny arm Bishop :mad2

Ha, to each their own of course. It's not ideal but I'd rather have skinny arm bishop over no bishop at all.

kylactus 01-15-2015 08:55 AM

I just justify Bishops skinny arms through the rational that in a post-apocalyptic future it's got to be hard to get a lot of protein, plus your always running from sentinels, all that cardio, no weight lifting equipment. sure-fire recipe for a slender build.
Personally I'm more upset that he can't hold two guns, or move hos wrists! I wonder if Luke Cages arms could easily swap for Bishops? (although he went from peg warmer, to highly sought after seemingly overnight) a spare Luke might make for an easy Mod.

tsweet 01-15-2015 09:23 AM

They did me bad on Bishop. That's my man!!

ultraman zoffy 01-15-2015 11:21 AM

I ordered Beast and Black Cat specifically to break them into pieces for use in making better versions of each character (or a different character altogether). Beast is just 4 limbs and a head that's going to go on a sculpted articulated torso, and Black Cat is going to get slit at the wrists to add swivels, then used for a different character since her proportions are actually an improvement for 3.75 Marvel female bodies. Big rub is that I have to pay $13+ for fodder as opposed to $10 now, so after these 2 intial purchases, I'll be waiting a year to get more on holiday discount from HTS.

Swivel wrists? Why why you need swivel wrists? Your wrists can't swivel, can they?

kylactus 01-15-2015 01:50 PM

uh... my wrists swivel turn and bend, in fact I can even pivot my wrist while having 180 degrees of lateral motion... can't everyone? the one I can't do is swivel my thigh... without serious injury.

K Dubious 01-15-2015 01:57 PM

Looks like I will be investing in screws for eye glasses as I plan to add wrist articulation to every figure I purchase that is lacking. I may leave Sandman alone as I don't think it is as big a deal for him.

Can you twist your torso at a 180 so your entire upper half of the body is facing backwards, though :D

Oh wait. neither can MI anymore.

(not that I ever thought that was a handy pose for whichever figures got it.)
