Went to four Targets that were on our pathway to home tonight. First one had all of the Avengers multipacks on clearance for 50% off, but they did not have Hawkeye (nor Scrap Iron for GI Joe). Second Target was the same, but for GI Joe they had Shipwreck for 50% off and Rock n Roll for 25%. Third Target had everything instock, but none of them were on clearance. Fourth Target had 2 Hawkeyes and 1 Scrap-Iron. Oh, and two of those Targets had the new Black Widow for 50% off as well. The Target with all of those Indiana Jones figures I posted a few days ago also had all of them for 50% off, so I decided to grab myself an Indy.



EDIT:

So my impressions of the stuff I got today:

Captain Marvel - It is nice to finally have the real Captain Marvel in my collection. I think she will go nicely on my Spider-Man shelf, though I'm not sure who I should pit her against yet. The sculpting is excellent, especially for the hair and the single jointed arms work. I just wish she had more accessories or something.

Dr Doom - Um, he's cool I guess. I don't know why he looks robotic since I have yet to read Secret Wars (just read the X-Men issue where they are apparently spirited away to the Secret Wars, so now might be the best time to do so before I continue reading X-Men). THe unmasked head is very cool, though he lacks scars. The figure kind of stinks not having pinless joints.

Hawkeye - Good god, this figure is a mess. First off, is he supposed to have a gap between his torso and waist? I know they gave him a cloth piece so he could sit down, but there's like a 2CM gap between them and it looks very ugly because of it. He also can't sit on the cycle for shit as there is nothing to peg him into. Furthermore, what the hell is Hasbro's obsession with doing an archer figure and NOT give him the proper hands to hold his arrow? What was the point in giving the figure a single arrow to shoot when he can't hold it? The peg on the hands also don't allow him to aim his bow right either. This is a huge let down as the sculpt work is impeccable. I love that his chest armor is all sculpted rather than being this weird plastic piece that goes over the body and can never be adjusted straight like the previous version I had. Oh, but the arm bands suck for the same reasons they sucked on 90s Cyclops and Havok. The cycle itself is cool looking.

Grey Hulk - I'm not a huge Hulk person, and I typically prefer the grey version over the green one, so this dude rocks. Of course, I don't remember the story reasons as to why he sometimes goes grey. Anyway, both heads look incredible and seem reminiscent to what he looked like in the Claremont X-Men comics he appeared in. I do find the orange torn shit piece a bit weird, but it does make sense since the Bruce figure has a matching shirt. Bruce himself is all right. He's what you expect from the outdated suited body. I do like that his glasses are removable, however, his head look more like it belongs to Peter Parker than Bruce Banner. Neverthless, it is cool to have another civilian figure, and one that was practically free if you think that I paid $30 for just Hulk.
