I'm pretty sure that's just Hasbro's case pack

Jason Abbadon 01-19-2012 08:24 PM

I dont buy it- if that were the case, there would be even more unsellable Capt Britian comic packs clogging the pegs.
They did the same when I bought my DD and warlock comic packs from them- which was okay then as I did not already have that pack- but here, when they're all repaints, it's pretty awful.

wolverine2281 01-19-2012 08:29 PM

Captain Britain 2 packs are warming over here. We'll see what EE gets. They're usually the same. I didn't think BBTS could choose what they get in each case

So the Avenger toys are out now???? Probably some idiot who put the cases out way to early...I remember when the Wolvie movie came out..My Wally stocked figs a month and a half before they were supose to....I had a Deadpool fig before most:-)

wolverine2281 01-19-2012 09:20 PM

They were out out by more than one TRU

LORD MARVEL 01-19-2012 09:29 PM

***Marvel figures $5 a piece. Minimum of 4 figures or more shipped. So $20 shipped for 4 figures..$5 dollars per figure after that ***

I want a small one to pose with my dudes, and I'm looking for a decent body, and head.

Would a bullseye body work? What could I use for a harness?

Here is a quick and easy one I did awhile back. Same suggestion as using the Duke head but with the painted eyes red. Added baroness sun glasses with a Ultimate Nick Fury body and done. Not exactly the way one might want it but easy enough with some spare parts lying around.

YESSSSS. Agreed. That's what we did as kids and that's what we do now.

On another note, I'd like to also share the a black panther I did awhile back as well. I (along with other arkers on here who wanted to buy a black panther figure after watching Earth's Mightiest Avengers Series) only got to get the one that came in the Target two pack. I decided to buy it after passing up on it so many times but wanted to re-paint it. So here it is.

Before shots
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o...-04-02_256.jpg
Used a black wash on it to see the difference.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o...-04-14_153.jpg
After
I also actually like the half black cape look.

http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o...-27-22_476.jpg

I'm back from Vacation so I'm back at it again. I'm in the process of painting another one of the heads I got from onyxphoenixproductions. Magneto head without the helmet. The hair is a bit shorter than I wanted but the face isn't too bad. I want to learn how to mold hair better so I can add to it for longer white hair. I will post it once it is presentable.

You have any pictures with a close up on his head?
Also, how does he look with his coat off?

I figure I can swap his lower arms with a sgt stone, and give him some different lower legs, but that torso looks promising!

Wolverine is right, that is the Hasbro case assortment BBTS has listed, it even says in the title, an they don't get to pick what comes in the case. They're the same case assortments that show up at retail. And there wouldn't be even more unsellable Capt Brit packs at retail yet, because this case assortment hasn't been released yet.

You can't really blame BBTS for selling the newer packs in sets and also including the Capt Brit pack from the previous wave like they did with the Sinister/Thanos packs... they have to recoup their costs and turn a profit somehow. If they didn't do this, they'd be stuck with a bunch of packs not selling, or they'd have to clearance them down to ridiculously low prices. This is cool for us as collectors, but from their standpoint as a business, it sucks. Blame Hasbro for the shitty case assortments, not the retailers.

Quoted for truth.

Speaking of appreciation, I don't remember if I publicly "appreciated" EvilAnimation a couple weeks ago for hooking me up with a bunch of these guys, so if not, thanks again man. Lots of pics up on my blog.

Hair? What am I missing about this one?

Nice! I was totally wondering if I should offer a price on that one, but I would have offered more and screwed myself, lol.

The free comic made my day. And I really don't even read comics (YES IM A MARVEL FAN WHO HASNT READ THE COMICS).

Awesome! I don't know many people who haven't tried comics somewhere along the line. Always good to hear about a new fan.

UGH. The way these latest comic packs are going, pre-order only makes sense, especially with Target/WM's new pricing. If only there was something to do with those crappy extra two-packs. Most of those are on clearance at my WM's now.

That was quick! Glad these things shipped for everyone pretty quickly.

Seriously, do they not know that no one is buying these? What the hell?


In other news, I'm SO HAPPY I was able to buy this off DogFashionDisco. The Vibranium armor is easily my favorite of the entire IM2 line. It's so stupid that I like it so much, but I really do. Totally reminds me of the recent What If storyline, and I'm a lover of alternate realities.

That's the EXACT SAME picture as the one on the back of the Avengers packaging! WTH?!? They're too cheap to even take new pictures now?!?!?

Here's what else Walmart had. Apparently since they stopped selling MU, the rest goes into clearance until it's gone. I like some of this, but I'd like it even more if I needed any of these:

I stopped in today at Frys near my house. I know they recently stocked a case of old secret wars CPs. Must have been in the back room. I picked up Klaw/Captain America and Thing/Bulldozer. Only need Thunderball to complete my wrecking crew now. They had the doom/absorbing man along with human torch/wolverine as well. Frys doesent always have good stuff, but when they do...

If I wasnt in the process of moving i'd go crazy with pics. I really like klaw. and I think I have a new favorite captain america.

behindthemask 01-20-2012 01:51 AM

I actually do need that comic 2 pack, and $11.60 is a good price, as far as the rest looks like I have, the frost giants might peak some of the army builders on here. Guardians of the Galaxy box set is decent, I recently got mine from Lord Marvel and very pleased with it, I just wish the racoon had articulation!

behindthemask 01-20-2012 01:58 AM

BIG NEWS for any US buyers looking for rare and common MU figures, stumbled upon a us seller who has 6 pages of MU virtually every figure for sale, including vision, all kinds of variants, damn!

Really happy to have snagged 2 of the new Comic Packs today. :D ...Though I am a little disappointed with the QC on the 4 figures, here's a quick list of what I've noticed so far....

Quicksilver
:
-eyes are painted so that he will always be "looking to the left"
- slight paint mar on his lower back
*overall the best of the bunch paintwise as there's not much wrong..but daredevil..ooh boy..

Wonder Man
:
-a noticeable dot of black paint on his left ear (the other one at Target had that same dot right inside one of his eyes, so...lesser of two evil's I guess...)
- torso is stuck in kind of a leaning to the left pose, can't seem to straighten him up...
*also not too bad, but his black paint "earring" is extremely annoying once you've seen it once...

Bullseye:
- Target on his forehead is a little sloppy
- Head is pretty loose on the ball joint (this seems to be a problem with a lot of the figures I have that use the "Rogers" body sculpt..
- The light blue "wash" on the white parts of his costume is a little uneven...
* overall, also not too bad..just a little disappointing...

and finally,
the big F*ck up himself...Daredevil:
- Head is loose
- feels like he was cast out of soft rubber (wtf?)
- BOTH legs are horribly "bowed" in at the knee...
- Paint wash is uneven; too dark/too light in various places all over...
- He had specks of "glitter" on his left thigh (which came off with some gentle fingernail scratching..but still, What the Hell!?)
- He literally has a deep "cut" in the hinge joint on his right shoulder, like someone took an exacto knife to him...
- His left "horn" had flecks of dry clear glue hanging off it...
* WOW...what happened to poor Daredevil I wonder?...and the worst part is, the other Daredevil pack that I chose this one over...was worse...seriously.

Despite my bitching, I enjoy all of them respectively and most if not all of their flaws I can custom fix fairly easily. (though I can take some close-up pics of the defects if anyone is interested)

I've noticed several other 'Arkers on here finding these same packs, anyone else having similar problems?....
