I'm SUPER Excited about it, but scared at the same time. Two cases coming out at the same time means we could EASILY have another Vision wave situation happen, where the first one becomes IMPOSSIBLE to find.

I'm quaking in my boots!

Shut your filthy mouth. There were already 4 spideys in the next two waves, now you're saying there are 6 total or 8?

UGH. OCD, you're killing me.

Don't say it like that! It sounds so... acceptable!
Ah, that one. I never check Wikipedia as a reputable source. I was hoping there was an AWESOME Wiki devoted exclusively to Marvel Universe. Maybe I should start one.

Lol. It's a revision case of damaged figures from 10 months ago! Hooray TRU!

That being said, the fact that the person with the worst customizing skills, on this or any forum, has all the parts, and could make a 100% identical version of that figure, a figure that is supposed to be an exclusive, and did cost 60 bucks, but is now 40, (which is 3 times retail cost btw) is sad.

Xforce AA and classic nick fury were awesome mail aways, not particularly easy to reproduce, unique packaging (for fury) and just overall good productions.

If hasbro expects me to pay well above retail, and wait weeks for it to show up, then I expect them to give me an awesome product, and in my eyes, that doom aint it. They used the Rogers head, which looks nothing like Mr Victor Von Doom for Christs sake!

For those who like that version of doom, I understand the want to have it, but I just personally feel like It's a sub par effort for a overly expensive figue.

If that figure was in the psylocke wave, I may have maybe just bought it in the last month or so, after having passed on it 1000 times, just because there was nothing new on the pegs.

If some one has an extra they want to sell me for 15 bucks then I'm down, but I wouldn't pay anything over that for that figure.

Thank you for your consideration, it's an honor just to be nominated
I was thinking about this the other day, and I think it would make a lot of sense to re-release the Nick Fury figure as a single carded figure. Hasbro should try to do everything they can to keep the high-priced figures as available as possible to drive the prices down.

I understand not putting X-Force AA out there just yet since the digital sub still has them, but surely they could clear the Fury figure with Marvel's Sub dept and go for it. Only makes sense.

Yea, we're in a really weird spot where both AA and Doom are available at the moment, but Doom has a discounted price of about $40.

I'm hoping this friday will have new mu wave at retail. On the lookout for miles morales spidey.
What's the significance of Friday? Who restocks Fridays for you guys?

None of my stores are really ready for new figures. Most of them have pegs and pegs of Wave 17 or earlier.

Yup, saw them for the second week in a row at Toys R Us. They're also available online, I believe.

I think it was a fair choice to use as a sub figure, b/c its a figure that is easy to reproduce, but in package (rather in box) it looks pretty swanky...but it is ALSO a figure no one really has to have! So in that respect it was nice, because lets face it if it were ARES <---(or insert any other completely new figure that everyone HAD to have) there would be a tyranical uprising!

Also got lucky today, drove to 3 tru's, 2 wallys, and 4 targets, and came home with the only RETAIL comic pack I wanted JUGGS and Colossus! Passed on the others, also passed on every new ML (series one and two, just b/c I dont collect ML's)...also passed on another Shockwave (FOC), dont collect those either...

And finally the hardest pass for me today was the TMNT sewer playset...the box is HUGE! I couldnt not justify 120$ for a playset...
That's a great day, Shorty. I can't wait for the Target-hitting packs to show up here.

At least you saw the playset! You can probably rest in the knowledge that few people will be buying it and it'll be there for awhile...

I believe so. I've got the 4 TRU, but my Targets are slacking...

Some people forget there should be a period after the "Ms" in Carol's code name. Punctuation isn't just for show, kids!

(At this point, imagine the NBC shooting star and the "More You Know" logo appearing).
Wow, that's an extreme. Sell one sell them all huh? And here you go:

I agree. They'll be fine for awhile, but next year we'll all hate 50 Kravens at every store...

Looks perfectly healthy to me! Though I'm not sure how well he'd fare against the 6" Avengers Hulk.
