I think my favourite line was the in-betweener line AVENGERS ASSEMBLE. Sandwiched after MU but prior to MI. The definitive Black Widow, Leader, a great Nick Fury, a cool Red Skull with tiny HYDRA hat (of which oddly I still have never gotten) a really nice Hulk that I have always wanted to upgrade to but haven't done so yet, a Mich better Falcon(of which we all have scratched our heads as why they did not use THIS version when they did Vulture) and a somewhat cool but forgettable Ultimate Hawkeye with a strange ab crunch in a 3.75" figure. Two wave of under articulated under appreciated gold. And a whole bunch of Caps, Iron Man and Thor figures that killed that line too. Even though it was sort of over before it began.


Anyway, back to SENDERS last sentence..... what was your very first Marvel Universe figure.... mine was a Dr. Doom bought at a brick and mortar store.

"Two waves of under-articulated yet under-apprepriated gold" Couldn't have said it better, UKMU. i enjoyed that line for those very reasons, the hidden gems. In fact, Phoenix Bow Hawkeye is my favorite figure despite being a repainted movie body. His quiver was full and his new headsculpt matched his updated costume which i preferred over the classic.

As for my first Marvel Universe figure, it was Spidey. Given it was during a time before i looked to the net for any action figure news, i was pleasantly surprised to discover Marvel superheroes in a scale i wouldn't have expected while shopping at WalMart. Eureka!

If this hasn't been tackled already, i will take UKMU's lead: What was your first MU figure?
