Hogun, Volstagg, and the Future Foundation. Awesome stuff. Stretch Strike Venom is the only one I am after currently.

Got a few in my BST...

SS I suppose has a different look but as far as displaying with other MU charcters, I don't think he looks good or fits in at all

I feel like the SS version is Mac Gargan from the Dark Avengers, and Toxic Strike is Eddie Brock. They're both great figures, but Mac looks more viscous.

Unless of course you paint the SS version's eyes so they're all white. Then it's hands-down the best.

Buy 1 Get 1 50% on ALL Marvel Action Figures - 11/21 Cyber Sale - Toys "R" Us

Unfortunately, they only let you do this sale once in each order, and your order has to be more than $50 to get free shipping. I was all ready to finally get those TRU exclusive Avengers Assemble figures when I figured out I only get one free when I put them altogether, and have to pay shipping when you only get two at a time, which makes them more expensive than in store!

Insanity.

The sale is great for the 35th anniversary X-Men sets though. $28 instead of $37 normally, or $49 at the Disney store, lol.


Oh and super-props go out to FancyPants, who I was able to meet in Phoenix this weekend. The dude made a wonderful in-person trade, and was nice enough to point me to a couple of his hotspots, as well as an Action Figure Museum there in Phoenix. (Which has close to 50 Target stores if you include the suburbs).
