Kostisfire Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 ... but where's my comics Guardians of the Galaxy? ^This. Just give me a 4-pack with the main GotG minus Groot since he's pretty much the same with the movie verse. Oh and POSEABLE ROCKET! Howard's posseable and he's shorter than the Coon...

Glantern Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I found all of the Ant-Man wave except Giant Man at my local TRU. Picked them up. Hope Giant-Man isn't too hard to get, though I doubt he will be. And now I'm super excited for that Ant-Man boxed set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I can't imagine he would be, though I hadn't expected 2099 to be a difficult find either and I've only seen him at my LCS. Bulldozer and Reaper I imagine will always be the first gone; team-completer/big figure and a new buck. New Ant-man set is EXACTLY what Hasbro should be doing to market this film, and should be how every Ant-man figure has ever been released. Love that the new Giant Man costume is on the Icons buck, and Goliath is a decent enough costume to warrant a purchase. The $10 match-box figure is a waste, though. Same figure that comes with Legends Ant-man. I can't wait for the next couple of waves. Doctor Strange, and his SDCC set, are by far my most highly anticipated figures with that new Blaze Ghost Rider and Kraven right being him. Oh, worth noting, it looks like Strange and Vision are swaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 2099's all over the place here. In fact, the only figure from that set that I don't see quite as consistently is DD. And I went ahead and pre-ordered Giant Man from Amazon, just in case I don't come across him in the next few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Recent talk of their upcoming Minimates exclusives and the need for a Father's Day card led me to Walgreen's toy aisle today and for the first time ever, I stumbled onto a Venom. I hadn't been hunting, but I'd kept my eyes open. Seeing it in person, I snatched it up immediately. Couldn't be happier with this impulse purchase as he MIGHT be one of my top five Legends, ever. Top ten, easily. What sets him apart? - vest gives him a different look from the standard slim or bulky Legends bodies, falling betwixt the two - belt's weapons, including a painted holstered sidearm, have amazing detailing - tentacle pack just looks great - four guns for multiple posing options (though I personally went with the laser sighted pistol and a rifle from someone else) - super poseable but tight enough joints to hold poses - great "gun holding" hands - overall phenomenal aesthetic And just for fun, in no particular order?

Glantern Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I myself just found Venom this past week. I'm not sure I'd rate him quite as highly as you (The Ant-Man wave is coloring my opinion a little bit), but I agree with all the points you make and I think he's a really fun figure! I think the figure I'm most impressed with right now is Bulldozer. I never got any of the other Wrecking Crew figures and mostly picked this one up for the Ultron piece, but I find myself really enjoying the figure.

hellpop Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Looks like Hasbro's doing a fan poll this year: http://www.actionfigureinsider.com/marvel-com-announces-sdcc-hasbro-marvel-legends-fan-poll/ I was all set to put my support behind Cosmo, until I saw Quasar, my #1 most wanted figure (in any line). So I'm voting for Quasar, with Cosmo as my VP. Vote Quasar and Cosmo in 2015. Also, a note to anyone going to SDCC: don't waste your vote on freaking Spider-Man.

Hawkeye's Junk Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Executioner would be nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I don't really have any dog in the Fan Poll (pun totally intended), but I figure if Executioner is on their minds then Enchantress has to be coming soon, so that's fantastic.

TENIME_art Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 *please Nebula* Also, is anyone here getting the Doctor Strange SDCC set and doesn't want Magik? Can I buy her from you, please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Possibly... I'm planning to get the set, and I may not want her. I'll let you know, Ten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Two-Face Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 New figures coming to Walgreens this year: Eric O'Grady Black Ant and First Appearance Daredevil with a Matt Murdock head. Really happy with both choices, they look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Also looking for Magik if anyone else doesn't want her - and possibly Hela. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Two-Face Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) Should have figured Jack would be on the Ghost buck. Not a bad body but the hips just suck. I'm not up on my Superior Foes, but as i hear it they have a pretty big fanbase. Morbius and Venom are nice, and i guess i like Spider-Gwen even if i hate the concept (and the name).

hellpop Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Is she actually called "Spider-Gwen" in the comics? I always assumed that was just a nickname. But yeah, it's pretty silly. Superior Foes was a great comic, if you like your comics refreshingly offbeat. Reminded me a bit of the old Giffen/DeMatteis JLI books. Nick Spencer is writing a new Ant-Man book with a similar vibe, which I thought was great and Buttheadsmate hated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBMM1 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Is she actually called "Spider-Gwen" in the comics? I always assumed that was just a nickname. But yeah, it's pretty silly. It's "Spider-Girl" in the comic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
