I wanted to get my boy the major Marvel players before branching out. From there my old collectors habits start kicking in and I think about buying doubles but I'll just let the lil dude play with them.

Pud: I have noticed some of the unmasked head sculpts leave something to be desired, Hulk and Thor inspecific.

Tarquinius: Thanks for the links they managed to eat a bunch of my time.The companion lines do throw a kink into things. I bought the Iron Man Mark IV from the Iron Man line because I liked the head sculpt much better than th MU version. I think I'll buy Wolverine from Origins if I can find his yellow costume. I bought a black spidey from the Spiderman line but wish I'd have waited to get one with better articulation.

Drew: I found the TRU firestar/iceman/spidey three pack on clearance but I passed choosing to spend my money on figures he would enjoy. I think it was $12 or so.

I dunno if you are an online buyer, but check out HTS.com in their marvel section

Marvel - Great Toys & Games At HasbroToyShop.com

They still have a lot of XMO Wolfie stuff as well as some earlier MU single cards AND Iron Man 2 AND Spiderman stuff....
