Mystery Man Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Damn! Who does that yellow stand come with? Spider-Man? Because now I've gotta buy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Damn! Who does that yellow stand come with? Spider-Man? Because now I've gotta buy it! Yep Spidey and Chris Redfield. The 2 pack is totally worth buy too, even without the stand. The new stands and things the MvC3 sets are coming with are all really awesome.

Onyx_6 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I had seen that TRU had the exclusives in stock after getting home from work today and figured I would drive out to see if I could get the free shipping by ordering in store. As luck would have it, I found a full case on the wave 1 pegs. So, when I checked out, I pointed this out and got them for $7.49 each. I also picked up the deleted scene wave of Star Wars Vintage figures at buy 1 get one 50% off. Good day to hit TRU! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to think you all were calling it the "pee stand" just a few pages ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I thought everyone was saying it was awesome because it is a pee stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I never called it a pee stand, though I did laugh at that fact. But anyway you look at it, urine colored or not, new dynamic display stands are just friggin' awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I honestly bought the Wolvie/Joe set just for the stand. I use it for dragging Peter Parker behind the goblin glider. The pee stand wasnt the #1 reason I got the Spidey/Redfield set though. That honor would go to Chris's hair to use on a SHIELD Agent.

Mystery Man Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Yeah, I'll pick up a Spidey/Redfield now. Redfield will be another generic dude I can maybe use for parts and I don't have any interest in another non-fully-webbed Spidey... but that stand will look great with the Silver Surfer.

MST3KFan Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Well isn't this how it usually works? You break down and order stuff online and then...THEN the one day or so later on you go to the store and find them to buy on shelves. I ordered a Sentinel/Ryu and Taskmaster/Spencer set off the TRU site on around Wednesday or so and today I went to my local TRU for the heck of it and found the shelf full of three sets of Sentinel/Ryu and three Taskmaster/Spencer. For the heck of it I bought one extra Sentinel pack. Might as well have two off it along with my two Sentinels from the older Marvel wave. The Sentinel is pretty awesome, but so is even Ryu.

Twisted Two-Face Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Found the Sentinel and Spencer packs today at TRU, much like the rest of you. And, of course, they're amazing. Of course, Taskmaster's bow and arrow went directly to the 3 3/4" Ultimate Hawkeye. (Come on Joe Mad, a Hawkeye without a bow? Really?) Also found Bucky Cap from Legends; how he was the only one left in stock, i have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 And to think you all were calling it the "pee stand" just a few pages ago... Hey, hey, hey, don't lump me in with these ruffians! I said it was a "backflip stand." :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Found these today at the Wolfchase TRU in Memphis. It's nice to see an even pack ratio. I like the size of the sentinel, but the design isn't really my thing for a standard sentinel. Like others are doing, I'll be happy with having one and calling him a mini-mastermold.

jcastick Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Found the Series at my local TRU but both exclusives were sold out. Good to see them out though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I always presumed the Sentinel in the game was a unique, specially engineered model designed for gladiatorial combat. But the official bio doesn't mention that part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain_cbecker Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 These showed up in Northern California this wee as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vox Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I was curious about the design of the Sentinel.. he does look VERY much like the one in the game, so I think they did a good job that way. I'm just curious what artwork the one from the game is based on.. anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) That's been the Capcom fighting-game Sentinel design since X-Men: Children of the Atom from the mid-1990's. And, yeah, the Minimate version is a great representation of the game design. Job well done there. It's just not a design I'm crazy about. Ha! Just saw that the MvC3 Sentinel is officially named COTA-94. Nice touch. Edited April 3, 2012 by Turtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I noticed that the clear circular stands that come with this wave are smaller. I was just starting to get a good collection of the others going to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavehawk78 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Anyone know where I can pick up Storm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Try your LCS or Luke's toy store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavehawk78 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 My LCS never got them, and I don't want to buy the whole series because Storm's the only one I want. I was hoping someone knew a website that was selling single packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webhead Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 ebay or amazon for at least $15 each. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
