(Ant-Man and Predator, I'm looking at you.) Seriously, how many 2-packs of Skrulls do you think they could move? Depending on how many alternate noggins they include, I'd buy a case. i miss the army dumps. the aliens ones were cheap enough that i bought 2 cases.

Zach did mention a last minute design change on the Captain so maybe there were other late changes as well. I’m only assuming because the Marvel Legends Figure has a different name and is played by a somewhat known actor, people may not recognize the name but he’s been in Dark Knight Rises and Rogue One so it seemed like he would have some significance, but I’ve been suspecting an Iron Man 3 style swerve with something based on the Yon Rogg/Mar Vell confusion, so maybe it’s intentional.

FightTheDead118 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Like I’ve said, if you look at the design the skrull in the boxset is the main skrull, and the name is either an early concept that wasn’t changed, or just a typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without sounding too rude, as I love Minimates, that's a pretty sorry answer. I really hope the Skrulls play a bigger role in the future of the MCU because I'll be awfully bummed if the only way to get an MCU Skrull is through this box set.

I don't make the line plans. Maybe putting a skrull in a two-pack would have made sense, with Fury or PHil at specialty, but the two-packs were done before the box set, so it may have been an approval or reference thing. Not sure about the Nuro business, I guess we'll see. And honestly, it sounds like a specialty set is a sure fire way to order what you want, vs. fighting over them at Walgreens, you just have to army build starforce members as well.

Valo487 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I’m starting to think the Skrulls are only being set up in this one for future shenanigans, the way they’re being presented is just not logical if they’re supposed to be this big menace, unless they’re hiding a plot twist they seem to just be a plot point instead of a major antagonist.

nandoninny Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 i'm gonna go with Zach's original suggestion -- any minimate could be a skrull........and how do we know none of these are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Thanos definitely has Skrull chin. Not sure where he got that complexion. Maybe it's Maybelline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceCuseCuse Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I did consider the possibility of Thanos being a Skrull, dying at some point in End Game and turning green, what a sick twist that would be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermatt Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I guess a few years ago i believe it was revealed in either a Thanos book or an Avengers book that Thanos was part Skrull. His mother was revealed to be a Skrull. Hmmm.. I just read that that story happened in an Earth X. Weird, I have no recollection of that happenin in Earth X. Oh well, carry on.

bilbofett Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 If anyone could find me a set of these, I'd appreciate it. All my Walgreens are filled up. Probably won't see these for awhile. I have PayPal, PM me thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FightTheDead118 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 The amount of ebay listings of this wave, while still insanely overpriced, makes me very hopefull this time around, considering the last animated wave and the second infinity war wave only had one or two listing a piece for months, I’m actually confident I can get these for a relatively okay price some time down the line, because if I can’t I’m only going for the regular marvel and jude law sets, I don’t see enough reason to spend $20+ on the other 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Does the wave have a different number on it than previous ones? It seems like usually movie waves do and they're eventually available, it just might take more than two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padrino Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Gotta say, I know it stirred a lot of controversy when first shown but I really love these green costumes. They are very sleek and the accessories are awesome. Also, they make better looking Green Lanterns than the Green Lanterns Corp. I need a little green army!

TENIME_art Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I just thought it was jumping to conclusion that her having the green & silver meant she wasn't going to get the red & blue. I don't recall anyone ever actually hating them for the way they looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
