This is the best I could do.
I picked them up first because I didn't want someone else to snatch them up while I was taking a picture... I put a few down to take a picture in front of the target tags, which I'm sure most of you recognize.. By the way this was a target in California

I'm just saying, if you got a B/S/T and had those figures in it, you'd be getting offers out the wu zhu.

bmorr · 10-09-2011, 06:46 PM

my only priority of this wave is wolverine. his astonishing xmen costume is a must. all the others in this wave are secondary. I have the XMO iceman already and he looks better. I might get the magneto. might. not even gonna look at the others.

XMO Iceman is a pretty awesome figure. If I had to pick between the 2, I'd go with the XMO one.

Fortune · 10-09-2011, 06:48 PM

Im honestly shocked with the lack of love for that iceman.

Tiberius · 10-09-2011, 06:50 PM

That Iceman will be perfect with my soon to be X-Factor. Seriously, some one give me a Beast!

Autobot_Goldbug · 10-09-2011, 06:54 PM

Well I for one would love both types of Absorbing Man & Wolverine.

FOR TRADE ULTIMATE IRON MAN!!!

$10?!? How is this wave already in your store? Did you mean the old Amazing Friends Iceman, or the X-Men Origins Iceman?

I've never heard the 'trade bait' phrase before. It's wildly appropriate.

Boy is it ever appropriate. God knows if I didn't want every figure in the wave, and I found them, I'd buy them and flag them all over the place in my B/S/T lol I'm sure fellow Arkers would appreciate it.

No I mean the new one. I looked at it over and over. Trust me you have probably never seen a store like mine

It's on the right side

Tiberius · 10-09-2011, 08:50 PM

Theory = Ruined. By the end of the year, this wave should be in Canada.

Yup, theory is definitely ruined. Oh well, I guess the wave will just start popping up at random spots.

JustryGT · 10-09-2011, 09:42 PM

Sorry I was trying to edit my last post when the storm knocked out power.

I was at first excited to see this new Magneto but now I am wondering if Hasbro will do it better in a few years. They sure do upgrade a lot of Star Wars figures with cloth capes. Why should I settle for this funky molded cape and a reused body?

I am looking forward to buying both versions of Absorbing Man.

I would predict that there wont be many more of the comic likeness for Tony Stark. So , I might as well get this (even thought I feel like I'm just buying the head).

Ice Man is cool , I just don't like seeing those huge translucent shoulder pins .

I have passed on many Wolverines so I hope this new one is a keeper.

Fortune · 10-09-2011, 10:08 PM

Im thinking of only collecting Xmen MUs so that wolverine and Iceman are must haves. I think thats the best Wolverine yet.

Pisses me off.

LMAO, I completely agree. So glad I'll be saving my money and just buying whatever better version comes out down the line.

holy crap. thats no store. is a gigantic plastic mausoleum.

fosterlager · 10-10-2011, 06:15 AM

I'm down for the Magneto but I'll probably keep it on card in order to swap in case of a repaint.

Optimus Vader · 10-10-2011, 06:39 AM

I'm looking forward to the new Magneto figure. I think the dark colors look pretty good. As far as classic comic colors and articulation (as articulated as Cable/Cyclops) though, there's no beating Showdown Mags--with head swap of course.
