The best thing about Blade is the coat, sword and gun the buck the figure is on is awful, I have one here and if it was not for the rarity I would not have bothered with it.

One of the casters has a complete coat, sword and Gun blade kit (you could just add a Luke cage figure and a custom head to finish up a nice easy custom

Only really wanting Nova and Angel, I think. No interest in Hercules or Puck. If Nighthawk looks good I might get him

And Jackieboy, you keep wishin for that Vision! :P

Angel is a great figure, the wings are crazy, Herc was the stand out figure for us this wave

Jimmyo · 01-23-2013, 05:21 PM

Here you go Jackie it even comes with that cool throwing knife thing

vampire hunter's kit

Jackieboy · 01-23-2013, 06:32 PM

lol,if i wish hard enough maybe ill get it.

Lionheart · 01-24-2013, 12:36 PM

Got the new wave! Puck is *tiny*! He really should have come in an Alpha Flight box set. Herc looks nice and bulky. My big surprise is how much I like Nighthawk! This is all only from looking through the plastic prison.

Herc was my biggest want from this lot, but all of them are figs I wanted. They're all good team builders too.

Jimmyo: I got the X-Factor Angel a while back, but had real trouble getting the wings to stay in. At least they pushed out the boat for these wings though. I'm still jonesing for a Vulture... come on Hasbro - you've done Falcon!

Character on the back saying "Buy them all" (actually, he says "Are my feet really that big" and "Puck got a figure before me? Seriously?!") - Sasquatch!

Does anyone know when the Mysterio wave is due to hit?

Jackieboy · 01-26-2013, 09:15 AM

For about the last 2 years they seem very reluctant to sell any other wave.

Moptop1 · 01-27-2013, 09:59 AM

Anyone have any ideas when the new wave from Ordwrsixtysix are being released and are they reliable ie when you order from them, you get all the items or only say some of the figures? I cancelled an order from them once but cancelled and they charged me a percentage for restocking! Think about £7.50 odd - cheeky f**kers! Lol

Dealt with ordersixtysix in December 2012, ordered Professor X and Blastaar, was sent Jubilee instead of Professor X.

Sent the figure back and the guy refused to refund the return postage as I hadn't made a returns request, even though the returns policy didn't state what the guy said on the phone to me.

Lionheart · 01-28-2013, 04:04 PM

Ordersixtysix do charge a cancellation fee. I've only ordered from them once, but I got what I ordered ok.

They should cover all costs if the mistake is theirs. Bad form not to.

I ordered variant Blastaar from Kapow and got regular, guy said he'd refund the difference - he didn't.

Truth is I usually only order from eBay, but recently online stores have been getting little bursts of waves before they've even hit the Bay. I guess you just have to go with your instincts.

if you have any comic shop in your area that stock these,then you can ask them to order from the states for you.Forbidden planet have been getting recent waves in,a few bagheads turned up there.

on a side note,3 75" skrull and nick fury spotted at disney store.

MGTAJ · 01-29-2013, 03:57 PM

Somewhere near me has a bunch of skrulls, MU and avengers kinds. It's either one of the LCS or the Glasgow Disney store.
I'm sure the Glasgow FP has at least two bagheads. Well, there was last Wednesday when I was picking up my weeklies.
Any of you have MOC or good quality, complete loose figs in a B/S/T? I'd rather give you guys the money than some of the yanks

Moptop1 · 01-30-2013, 03:06 PM

Got my Uncanny X-Men, Inhumans and West Coast Avengers boxsets today. Must say I'm rather pleased with them. Nice sets.

Fantastic, Mine should be here anyday now (I Hope)

MGTAJ · 01-30-2013, 03:46 PM

Any pics of those boxsets, Moptop1? I like to see in-hand pics from collectors before I make a judgement on figures

Jackieboy · 01-30-2013, 04:11 PM

would be great to see a few comparison shots beside the likes of Hulk and some others.picked up a she-hulk and a ghostrider if anyone is interested.pm me.
thanks again for the info jimmyo,i was actually looking to use some of those custom guys for parts.but i just want to take stock of what i have arriving before i do,and i need to save some cash for those new figures.when they hit.im sure the WCA set will be the least popular,so im in no rush for that.

Moptop1 · 01-31-2013, 12:51 AM

I'm already a member of that and the UK&IE Comic Collectors page, some pretty sound fellas to talk and trade with. Some people are wary with trading via Facebook though

Moptop1 · 01-31-2013, 12:13 PM

Just received an email saying Ordersixtysix has taken my payment for the Nova wave of figures. Wow, it's all happening at present, what with all these new figures. Let the good times roll. :-)
