I went through a couple Walmarts today in search of something for a friend.... nothing significant or new at any of them. Man, I really hate that place.

Shawn Woodbeck · 09-20-2011, 05:08 AM

Damn it!!! I cant wait til Target comes here.

also, take a closer look at the darkhawk and ultron figures in that picture. notice the arms are in different positions? whats up with that.

I think they are variant packaging. I can only wonder what the stands say. lol Just like the upside down spidys and such. Well with all this confirmation I guess it's worth a trip to Target. I've got one about 15 min from work. I should be able to slip away at some point.

Variant DarkHawk uses his classic armor head. No clue on any color differences or if it'll have his purple wings. He won't be hitting the cases until the revisions. I hope he formally gets his own number though. The stand should still say Darkhawk. Only stand variants are Skaar, Namor, and scarlet spider. They announced all this at SDCC.

Do Boy · 09-20-2011, 06:06 AM

What? There is a variant stand for namor! Damn it lol.

I didn't realize there was even going to be a difference. I thought they would just be in diff poses. We will see what I find. Thanks for the heads up.

The target had 2 of everyone exactly. It was a nice find. They could have just stocked them too. This target is a much lower on the totem pole shipment receiving store too. They're always a bit behind other targets, so I was literally dancing in the aisle shocked.

Steve Rogers right leg is horrible. X-23's left leg was off when I opened the package. This peg leg crap is not so hot imo. X-23's was able to be popped back on and maintain limited movement, but Steve's can't move after reapplying it or it just crumbles off his body.

Jason Abbadon · 09-20-2011, 06:35 AM

GREAT.
Both my targets have been restocked to the gills with revision cases and my Toys R Us maintains it's steadfast policy of only stocking crap from last year- if it aint covered in dust, it aint there.

BBTS meanwhile has decided to be LAST again on getting or shipping anything, despite the wave being everywhere but where I live.

They were a month or more behind last wave when I cancelled by reorder.
What happened to those guys?

atomicsmurf · 09-20-2011, 07:19 AM

@ Snowflakian, Can you use wax, or nail polish to get that wing to stick a little better? My Darkhawk is still moc, so I don't know if the wing is peg-hole? If it is, maybe coat a little nail polish on the peg, let it dry and see if that helps it fit tighter. Or, don't listen to me at all, because I don't want my advice to ruin your figure. lol

miketime · 09-20-2011, 07:54 AM

Just made a run to Target. Remnents of new Thor but nothing new for MU. They did have product though.

Do Boy · 09-20-2011, 07:54 AM

AHHHH I want this wave!!!!!

bmorr · 09-20-2011, 09:34 AM

I so wanna check out my target today...but im sure they restock on the weekend. Thats when i found the warriors three. Its one of those times where im gonna be out driving anyways and I cant say i didnt try lol.

It's like a rectangle pegged wing bar thingy that clips into the gauntlet that has a hole to match it. It's the kind of peg and plastic, that if you restrict it, it'll just expand the hole and still fall out.

Nail polish might work, or other similiar liquid type solutions if I put it in while it's still drying to dry to the hole and attach, but other than superglue and that, I'm not seeing any other options. It'll stay in so long as I don't move that arm though, it's just annoying. I have to pose him, wing falls off, reattach wing in pose, repeat if I change the pose.

DarkestKnight · 09-20-2011, 09:46 AM

Thanks for the heads up, I'll check mine today.

Please let us know. I may have just gotten a random unlucky on one gauntlet one, but need confirmation to make sure.

And if you meant targets.

Good luck! Hope it shows up all over soon. Especially if it just infuriates the scalpers by making them lose that immediate value from rarity.

Not only Target got the new wave but I Jus got the power man two pack n the captain Britain as well

NoodleChow · 09-20-2011, 11:21 AM

Yeah, those just hit walmarts too. I guess it's safe to say the new cases are starting to hit all around for CPs and Single Cardeds.

Optimus Vader · 09-20-2011, 11:27 AM

I'm 0-1 so far this week. Stopped on my way home from work last night and could've had myself the Wrecker, Modern Thor, or Gladiator, if I wanted some figures I already had. I'll stop again this evening.

quinten182 · 09-20-2011, 11:34 AM

Target was missing the Steve Rogers today.. but one of every one else was left exactly. So I found an optimal Commander Rodgers replacement for the pic. I also left the display up in hopes that the next MU fan enjoys it.

Is that a totally new Spidey in that set?

CLASSIFIED · 09-20-2011, 11:41 AM

I have a lot of luck at Target.

I'll hit them up ASAP!

Thanks for the heads up!

quinten182 · 09-20-2011, 11:48 AM

Am I the only MU + NFL fan that thought replacing Captain Rogers with team captain Aaron Rodgers in the pic was humorous? Or has my work day just been that long to where my humor sucks? Ha
