Nervous Rex Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I love all these except for ultron (not a huge fan of the character at all). Tese are the kind of mates I love, very colorful. I can't wait to see what Hyperion looks like , wink wink ...... by that, i mean, please make him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwoosheyman Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Seems very early for package shots for something due in late Nov/Dec. Is there a chance they will be out earlier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Why is this wave 1.5 instead of 2.0? Why not? But seriously, it may have to do with how Walgreens internally manages line refreshes and such. Instead of a slightly different assortment of Series 1, they get a 90% different assortment -- the regular Spider-Man comes with one different head, but is otherwise the same as Series 1. Series 2 brings back two Series 1/1.5 characters, but they are in very different outfits, and the other six are all-new for this line. I do not believe Man-Thing/Squirrel Girl are in Series 2 as it currently stands. Possibly Series 3? Seems very early for package shots for something due in late Nov/Dec. Is there a chance they will be out earlier? There's a chance, but remember they still need to cross an ocean and go through two different warehouse systems. I think we had packaged samples of Series 1 in June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 For Coulson, it looks like the chest armor is reused from the Iron Man Space Armor, but with the detail on the chest filled in? Nice catch. I don't know how authentic it is offhand but it makes sense that SHIELD would be taking advantage of Stark's tech, whether he likes it or not.

Mysterious Stranger Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Coulson comes with a helmet right? So I can buy a few and use them as Cape-killers or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 These look very neat. I'm glad to see the neat alternate heads that come with all of these Spidey's. Love em. I definitely plan to pick these up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 My local Walgreens does not have this wave in stock, but using the store locator, I was able to track down a set @ the nearest store 45 minutes away. Soooooo I made a road trip. I found them hanging on an unmarked peg & was in & out in less than 5 minutes. Now all I need is for TRU.com to list theirs.

EricM Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I found the wave Ultimate Spider-Man wave at TRU in Pleasant Hill, CA. I picked up the Nova and Carnage set. Is the 1st Walgreens waved scheduled for early this month right? I wish instead of the reddish jacket Starlord they went with his blue suit that he's used on Ultimate Spidey, Agents of SMASH and Avengers Assemble.

jjwspider Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Anyone else concerned about the quantities each Walgreens is receiving? Only getting one complete set per store is going to make these extremely difficult to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Well online it said they were in stock but the people in the store said they were not in yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysterious Stranger Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Well online it said they were in stock but the people in the store said they were not in yet Strider how were you able to Check it online? Sorry if it's a stupid question Go back a page or two. I posted the link to the item on their site where you can check store inventory. As for them only getting one set per store, I wouldn't worry too much. I know with the Marvel Legends and Star Wars Black exclusives they were restocking pretty well. I'd imagine they had to meet a minimum quantity to produce them so I don't think these will be that hard to find. Now whether you have to find them in your store or not is another story. But I think they will be plentiful enough once they hit wide release. Edited September 2, 2015 by Mysterious Stranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortysben Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Checked my locator again, out of 20 stores within the same amount of miles, about 6 said they were in stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 They are supposedly in stock at every Walgreens near me. I've gotta say, I really dig the Hawkeye/Bullseye pack. Probably my favorite of all the animated 'Mates we've seen so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santos L Halper Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Wish I had never seen the store locator link, checked it Monday and it said all the Walgreens in the town 20 miles away were in stock so I spent my evening going to all of them only to be told they have no clue what I'm talking about. Out of the 6 stores only one employee was helpful, while another employee in another store told me they won't stock anything new until they sell all the items on clearance. This morning all 7 Walgreens in my town said they were in stock, so I made a run before work only to be told they have no clue and if it's not on the shelf then they can't help me. I understand that it isn't a toy store, so they don't know the product, but to be so unhelpful and to act like you couldn't care less about helping me is a shame. If it weren't for these mates I would never go back to Walgreens, out of 13 stores only one had an employee that actually cared about the customer.

youbastards Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Sorry to hear Santos. Despite having a tough time finding these at stores showing them as in stock, the majority of the Walgreens employees I've dealt with so far have been really helpful. Only one employee gave me the run around, he said that they are most likely inventory that he got for Christmas and he can't put them out yet. I showed him pix of people finding them online and he told me that those stores were wrong to put them out so soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I would love for some lazy asshole to tell me that, I would be delighted in putting them in their place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
