Ive been enquiring into casting heads and solid accessories and after a lot of study I think I`m going to be able to do it, now my question is, would there be many UK collectors interested in buying any as I'm happy to do it for my self but if people are interested I could start doing quite a few. I'm only interested in doing heads and solid accessories, I'm not doing parts or rubbery coats etc. just concentrating on the solid stuff for now.

I'd be interested. I suppose you'd ship out quicker than Vort

[Pilkster]

I think Vort is getting back on track now. Looking if anyone is interested in investing to start it off. PM me if anyone wants in

Went to TK Maxx yesterday once again in search of the GOTG Marvel Legends. Sadly didn't find any but did spot the Spider-Man Legends Spider-girl figure from last year for £7.99.

Now come on, when was the last time we got a really poor, no thought given to it SDCC exclusive?
Invaders Set - Namor, Human Torch, Captain America, Red Skull, & Frozen Captain America
Galactus
Ultimate WW2 Captain America
Ages of Thunder Thor
Movie Spider-Man
Compound Hulk
Masters of Evil - Tiger Shark, Radioactive Man, Baron Zemo
Super Helicarrier - Maria Hill
Deadpool Corps Taco Truck
Infinity Gauntlet - Thanos, Starfox, Nebula, Death
All amazing figures, some new characters,amazing new versions of characters already done, massively articulated, brilliantly painted, and this should continue this year. I have no doubt our exclusive will be announced in due course.

[Lionheart]

I don't know... none of them really match that Strange set... 4 new figures all with accessories and a variant with accessories that's a must have in a beautiful reopenable case that would look good displayed anywhere (could even sit with books on a shelf!) I think the best set they ever did for MU was Masters of Evil, mainly because it was three new villains and we can never have enough of those!

i would have thought hela was the odd one out,but she is a death god after all and has held council in the past with dormammu,so in comic terms its a pretty good set!sure they could have chucked in a nightmare or shuma gorath,but with a recent push behind legends it may still happen.
if hasbro reduced the number and quality of MU scale figs thats because of the revenue they lost through previous lines such as movie based ones.legends collectors spend the money on their line.

I believe those were Mail Aways, but damn fine ones

I wouldn't be surprised if they go cheap and just re release Old Man Logan as this year's exclusive since it seems he's going to be the New Logan of the united universe.

I'd say they'd release a repainted OML with a repainted Dr Strange, repainted Medusa, maybe even a resculpted Thing and Rocket, were they to go in that direction

[Zend]

Would be neat. The lab coat Hank Pym figure had to be related to SDCC though, especially since Viper got what's shaping up to be the 6" Star Wars exclusive recently.

Hank is definitely SDCC. What Star Wars exclusive?

The First Order Stormtrooper from TFA. The figure went up on eBay about a week ago and like yesterday someone leaked special packaging for it that looks an awful lot like SDCC exclusive packaging considering its nothing like what they confirmed to be the new Black Series packaging for this fall when TFA's toylines hit.

Also, I want figure of X-23 in her new blue and gold suit. Looks so great, I'm definitely picking up whatever series has the team she's on.

But then you'd have to read a load of other crap attached to it, from characters like Old Man Cap, and Amadeus Cho Hulk

[Lionheart]

New Marvel Infinite line is on Amazon.co.uk for £13.99 each with free shipping. The price jumped from yesterday when they were £11.99.

[Panthro1978]

Looks like Liverpool One TRU has had a restock of Infinites. Plenty of Black Cat, Sandman and both grey and blue Beast. £11.99 each.

[Pilkster]

Sainsburys in Ellesmere Port has MI figures for 8.99 beasts, black cat daredevil

[Panthro1978]

Nothing to report from me today, really, except that my local Home Bargains has a load of the TASM2 MLs in now, but mainly Spidey and Electro. £5.99 each.

[Jackieboy]

FP and some other places still stocking older infinite waves,ion wonderman the no1 peg warmer.can anyone here varify the official info release date for infinite.universe con exclusive.im hearing rumours of a possible hank pym set.but hasbro are keeping their cards veeeery close to their chests on this one.seems odd that they would reveal the legends exclusive but no infinite news.i could swear previous years were different for info in the run up to sdcc 15.

[Lionheart]

In case there was any confusion, by 'new Marvel Infinite line' (above) I meant the one with Vulture / Shanna, not the Beast / Black Cat wave.
