Nessex Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Went to my local CostCo and found the Quinjet this weekend. It's not for me - but it's nice to see MU being stocked in Australia. Aside from my LCS who imports them, i haven't seen a wave at retail since 7 (Black Widow, Luke Cage, etc...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I think the Quinjets are a recent thing since they usually stock up on toys for the holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Well, the hunt is over-- sorta. I found Kang and Wanda today, but both Kang's legs look like they're going to snap off at the peg at that little mid-thigh cut (I don't really know why they put that cut there). Worse, his left leg has a right shin, so his calf muscles facing out. He'll do until I can find another one and replace him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Collector Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I think the Quinjets are a recent thing since they usually stock up on toys for the holidays. Great thanks. I will give my family the heads up and hopefully they'll be able to grab me one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hey, any of you Marvel collectors need the last wave of Iron Man 2 comics figures? The HTF set with Mandarin, Ultimate Iron Man, War Machine, and Whiplash? I just found them at a local independent toy store for... and this killed me, considering what I paid for Mandarin... five bucks each. Be happy to pick them up for anyone that needs them (assuming we're all still standing after MEGASTORM!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattallica Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 i still need them and would love them at that price i still need them and would love them at that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I found and tried to get Kraven, Beta Ray Bill, White Spidey and new Spidey yesterday, but 1) Walmart wouldn't honor online ads and 2) I ran out of money because of that. Of Well. Thinking that I could get a MU BRB to replace my ML one. They seem to have the same articulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 That really stinks they won't honor those. For a company that promotes price matching alot, they have some really strict rules. I noticed BBTS is soliciting the next wave with Blaastar, Prof. X and Jubilee and the new 3 packs (though not many details on some like West Coast Avengers). Hopefully next year sees more releases and not just a bunch of movie product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Thinking that I could get a MU BRB to replace my ML one. They seem to have the same articulation. The ML articulation is definitely better, but the MU figure is pretty close so you could probably get most of the poses you want out of it. The real difference is the awful MU hips.

UK Collector Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) If anyone can pick up the Costco Quinjet for me, and would ship it to the UK it would be greatly appreciated! Please PM me if you can help. Edited November 4, 2012 by UK Collector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Picked one up tonight. Had to reassure the wife twice it wasn't another one for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I need two of those Professor Xs. One for a G.I. Joe custom (I love that it's the same body as the SDCC Destro), and one just to have a Professor X (since I cosplay him). Anyone else here not necessarily collect the line, but get these just to supplement their G.I. Joe collection? I've got movie-Hawkeye/Widow & Commander Rogers for my Joes, movie-Hogun standing in as the Joe samurai "Budo", and movie-Whiplash, mohawk Storm (had to re-buy her, since I'd sold my first one when I gave up trying to collect the line) & Kraven for my Dreadnoks.

groundhog7s Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Actually, when I started the line when it began it was just because it was in the same scale as Joes. I'm a sucker for anything 3 3/4" scale and the big selling point was having a Cap with my Joe troops. I'm just as excited to have Jazwares doing Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter to go with the Joes also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can get excited about those lumps of poo Jazwares calls action figures, then you must really hate yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Just saw the next set of figures at my LCBS: Blastaar, Jubilee, and Charles Xavier. Looks like those are the only three in the wave, based on the cardback. Weird. Anyway, I passed on them all, since I hate paying inflated comic book store prices for these. But they did have an Amazing Bag Man, which I snapped up, before realizing that he probably shipped with that wave and that I paid inflated comic book store prices for a figure I might be seeing all over the place next week. Oh well, he's too cool to risk. And I'll probably buy a second to turn into a Minimate; the bag's not removable, but I think I can get the head off without too much of a problem.

TM2 Dinobot Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) Saw these in the wild, and a variant Miles Morales, whom I passed on for reasons I can not figure out. But yeah, Kalibak Blastaar is friggin huge. Edited November 21, 2012 by TM2 Dinobot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Geez, Chompah Face, yah cann't read? It's Blastaar, evil warlord of the Negative Zone, FF foe, and Annihilus' rival for control of the Zone. HP just wrote it in the post above yah. Bravestar was a Filmation cartoon about a sci-fi western planet protected by Marshal Bravestar and his shotgun wielding robo-horse Thirty/Thirty that aired in the late 80's.

TM2 Dinobot Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Yeah... I'm trying to decide if I don't care, or just want to blame the board failure on that one. Oh who am I kidding. I don't care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 A Mockingbird MU figure???? *SQUEE* No pics yet. Hopefully this sells well enough to get AA/DST's attention I'm looking forward to the Rogue/Longshot pack too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Two-Face Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 EEEEE MOCKINGBIRD. Made my day. Love her, though it's likely her classic costume. Not that that's a bad thing, but i love her modern look. Still amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
