Because then no one would buy the Logan with bike of course.

They will. You just have to get the long-haired one with Blob instead.

MADREVJACK, ZeoVGM, I have seen empty pegs here in Mid MA , I will check today, I don't hunt much any more, but feel free to post your sightings in our sightings forum

Kluster Bombs, nice! Did you take pics of the bike?

ZeoVGM · 03-23-2009, 09:39 AM

Yeah, the TRU in Brockton has had empty pegs there for "deluxe figures" for like 3 weeks now. Why put the pegs out if they're not going to put anything up?

Still wish it was single packed, I don't want the Blob launcher.

I'm glad about Hasbro making the Sabertooth in Comic Uniform figure but now that I have it in hand I am sooooooo very disappointed.
It looks spectacular, it has great articulation and unlike the Xmen Origins version from X1 he doesn't have clown shoes and Go-Go Gadget extendo fingers. The problem is the size. As you can see in other post this thing is friggin huge. It is much large in height and width than the other 2 Xmen Origin Sabertooth figures and worse yet is taller than the MU Hulk figure! This thing fits in only with the Wave 3 (at least I think Wave 3 - Daredevil, Mr. Fanphucntastic, Ghost Rider II, etc.) of the Marvel Superhero Showdown figures which were much taller than the the first waves. I love the look of the figure but it doesn't fit on my shelves with all my GI Joes and Marvel U/Xmen Origin figures. What were they thinking? If this is the same line as the rest of the XMen Origins then why wouldnt the height be the same as the counterpoint Saber figures?

In the comic he is huge compared to others, especially Wolverine. The Universe figures might not be a good way to compare, as the Wolverine in that line is taller than the Origins one, and the Origins one has been given props due to being properly scaled.

I'm not sure about the properly scaled props. The TRU Exclusive Sabertooth in comic costume is huge compared to the other two Origins Sabertooth figures. If this is part of the Origins line then it is way out of proportion, again in the Hulk range. Even in the comics he isn't that kind of large.

Yes but Sabretooth and Wolverine in the movie are based on their actors who in Sabretooth's case is shorter than in the comics, and in Wolverine's case, taller than in the comics. Sabretooth is that big in the comics, it depends on who you see him drawn by. Wolverine has always been much shorter than him, and the Origins line reflects that. The Universe line doesn't because Universe Wolverine is as tall as Spiderman and Daredevil, and Hulk in that line isn't even all that tall.

The Hulk in Universe is underscaled in a way, the comic Hulks in the movie line are more accurately scaled.

Beast · 04-03-2009, 01:35 PM

Yeah, the single carded comic Sabretooth is actually far too short. The one in the 2-Pack or Deluxe Pack with Blob is actually much closer in scale.

MADREVJACK · 04-03-2009, 10:40 PM

Can't wait to get my Blob inaction figure. Then I'll have a small group of Brotherhood guys to fight my x-men and legends sentinel.

Optimus Scourge · 04-04-2009, 04:30 AM

Got him today in Philly (on vacation) never saw him in MA. I only got one.

I dont have my light box, but, I will try to get some pics up soon

sparkhunter · 04-04-2009, 07:11 AM

in case anyone is interested toyrus.com has the 2 pack for $13.99, they will not honor the price in stores either. I asked yesterday.

ZeoVGM · 04-04-2009, 03:52 PM

Any free shipping codes for TRU.com out there?

No good codes available for TRU.com.

Chosen · 05-06-2009, 05:16 PM

I don't know how it could have escaped notice. Maybe everyone has it now.

The TRU Sabertooth/Logan set is now on sale on TRU.com for $12.99... if you only want one. You may have noticed that, probably as some promotion for the film, other X-Men figures are now on sale, two for $10.98. Well, whether accidental or intentional, the TRU set is on sale too!

At little over $5 each plus shipping, NO ONE has any excuse to miss out on such a stunning figure... oh, and that short guy with the claws and the rinky-dinky bike. Pfft.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up!

ludovicotek · 05-06-2009, 08:48 PM

The TRU where I live has had at least 20 of these things sitting on the shelves for weeks collecting dust. I personally love the Sabretooth and I really like the Logan figure with hat, too. I keep hoping to find the newer sets with Deadpool and Blob. When are those supposed to hit? And are they TRU exclusives as well?

sparkhunter · 05-07-2009, 06:18 AM

They have been on sale on TRU.com for a while, but they are now 12.99 in the stores as well. I picked one up yesterday to add to my universe display.
