Wasn't sure where to put this, but thought I'd ask here with all you SHS afficionados.

My local Tesco has the Marvel Superhero Squad Avengers Super City in a deal and I wondered how suitable it was for Minimates? I like the idea of having a fold-up playset to use, but if the scale is too wrong then I'll pass.

Thanks for any help :)

Did Hasbro give a release date for the SHIELD Hellicarrier? I don't remember a date given out at Toy Fair.

Not sure when we will see the helicarrier but when the heck are new figures going to start shipping? The Reptile, Thor, et. al. wave has been clogging up pegs for a couple of months now! I'm dying for Hepzibah!

Has Hepzibah actually been announced for release? I know she was shown with Warpath at a Con last year, but i was starting to worry that the X-Force 4-pack was gonna get cancelled.

I think I might try to put together parts from two Hellicarriers to extend the flight deck and make it more proportional with the comic version, and a better size for a minimates display. It will need a repaint too of course. I can't wait!

I've got all my x-men characters and am still quite into them. They are posing next to my Marvel Legends Spiral, Longshot & Mojo as though they were x-babies.

I think they look pretty good . . . BUT it's been a long time since i've seen an x-character released. They cancelled Hepzibah & Warpath, and the only new x-character announced for this year is Polaris and she seems to be a Scarlet Witch with a red for green paint swap.

The line seems to have taken a bit of a back seat to the Marvel Universe line recently :(

no free shipping :( i did get them to combine shipping on a whole bunch of these and other SHS & Minimates (some John Stewarts).

It's a shame the paints a bit shabby, because the sculpt (particularly on Hepzibah) is fantastic.

Bah - beaten to it. Damn the time difference.

So - do we think we'll be seeing more of the same style of figures? or will this be a format reboot as well? Possibly something more articulated to try and compete with Playskool marvel heroes?
