Nessex Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Minn-Erva looks bloody cool. If this is the set supporting the main wave, then I have high hopes for the regular assortment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereasonsy Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Well, I wouldn't normally be excited for this box set as that Carol is not the best in any way shape or form for my standards BUT those Kree and Skrull mates make this an easy build and we get both genders of Kree. Easy swap out to get the pink skinned ones so this is a must buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbofett Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Depending on what else is released. I might pick up 2 or 3 of these for customs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABC123 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Jeez, they couldn’t give Captain Marvel a jacket piece instead of painting it on her? Otherwise, the set looks good. Hope there are more figures for this series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Can we get a yay shot? Where's Goose and Coulson and Fury and Maria and Talos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nandoninny Posted December 19, 2018 Author Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) any release date news (more specific than "Spring")? i find it quite annoying when its released way after the movie has been out. in the case of ant-man i think the dvd had already come out by the time the toys came.

fwoosheyman Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Woof that Carol is rough thankfully the 2-packs will have a different one. The others 3 definitely make the pack worth buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, making the jacket a tampo doesn't look as good and reduced my interest in the figure. I assume they would say it's being done that way because of the hair.

They aren't even in production yet, never mind in a yay. There will be an assortment at Walgreens to complement, with no overlap. 42 minutes ago, nandoninny said: any release date news (more specific than "Spring")? i find it quite annoying when its released way after the movie has been out. in the case of ant-man i think the dvd had already come out by the time the toys came. Two-packs will hit in January. Not sure when this set will hit, but probably not sooner than spring. 12 minutes ago, stack32 said: I agree, making the jacket a tampo doesn't look as good and reduced my interest in the figure. I assume they would say it's being done that way because of the hair. I do not think hair or a new coat piece were able to be factored into the design, because this design replaced another design late in the game. So it is somewhat of a compromise, but I also think a separate coat piece would have bulked her up too much. I know we've given women coat pieces in the past, but this is a movie, and product is often held to a different standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTiger95 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) So all the figures here are exclusive to this box set? If so that leaves 4 two packs with some interesting choices. Also Minn-Erva's hairpiece would have been perfect for my custom of Spider-Gwen from Into the Spiderverse, if the long hair part was on the other side, bummer.

elhonez Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 This skrull looks a lot like Marvel's Badoon alien race, or at least the head does. I'm seeing a custom opportunity here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don;t know about the website. 6 hours ago, MisterPL said: Was the other design Carol in her Kree uniform? No, that will be at Walgreens. Not going to get too deep into it, but there are two Carols and six completely different characters in the assortment. 3 hours ago, RedTiger95 said: So all the figures here are exclusive to this box set?

PrinceCuseCuse Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Got the word from DST on Facebook that this is the only Skrull figure included for the movie, sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 So the Walgreens assortment will include two Carols (Captain Marvel sans jacket and Kree uniform), zero Skrulls, maybe a Coulson, a Fury, possibly Maria in her flight suit, and a couple more Starforce characters (unless alternate heads are offered in the 4-pack). Please, no Ronan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FightTheDead118 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Does the description have the wrong name for the skrull? It says Nuro but the main skrulls, which that looks to be, name is Talos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one Skrull and he's in a boxset? That sounds about right. Carol and Att-Lass don't look very good to me. I think it must be the faces because the uniforms look as I'd expect them to. Minn-Erva on the other hand is much more interesting, depending on accessories, which I expect are going to be limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I'm already disappointed that we're only getting one Skrull but if we don't even get the main Skrull advertised for the movie, then I'm gonna be even more disappointed.
