My LCS owner thought it was pretty funny that they were being offered former TRU exclusives.

It's good that instead of these being next to impossible to find (like they could have been) they might be some of the easiest TRU sets to get a hold of.

They're not close at all. Infinity War hulk has a glossier, brighter green color. While AoU Hulk is more matte and slightly darker in shade. 

Thanks. That's a shame, though, I prefer the jeans to the "tech-pants", but I like AoU Hulk's face design much more.

If my LCS can order the TRU set I'll probably get Iron Man/Thanos and Groot/Rocket.

Can anyone who has both the Infinity War and AoU Hulks say how close their greens are?

It's good that they're being released. I wonder if they'll do the same for TRU 26.

I guess it could be interesting, but I hope DST stays away from variants with all of the characters in this movie.

I'd guess that Vision will be Walgreens exclusive, and it would make sense for him to be packed with Scarlet Witch.

Most of the big names were made in series one, so I think Hulkbuster could be shared.

That lineup seems pretty solid to me, though. Maybe orange Shuri or unseen Hawkeye instead of Wong.

I'd say preordering would be a big one. Without mass market support I would imagine it's much harder to get order numbers high enough for a release to be profitable.

The 80's Turtles are a good example of this.

Without TRU's support, I'd be pretty surprised to see a dropship. Or any other vehicle, to be honest.

Was the Kingdom Hearts bike supposed to be at TRU?

Can we get hints for series 2 (male/female, hero/villain, made/unmade, etc.)? It doesn't seem like there'd be an embargo over them anymore.

The Tarantula mask looks like it could match WWII Cap, if you want to avoid painting.

That's a great Ghost Rider, it's crazy we haven't gotten an updated version from DST.

who is that?

Isaiah Bradley, he was an early test subjest for the super-soldier serum from a book called Truth: Red, White, and Black.

It seems like an obvious Yes, but considering the number of characters I don’t want to assume, will there be Outriders available to army build?

I should clarify -- I am not aware of any army builders. Too many characters. 

The Black Widow likeness wouldn't really bother me if DST hadn't done a better job on the last three versions. It's just weird that the design changed after being consistent for a good while.

The eyepatch situation is annoying but I understand why it happened, the Lego and Funko figures don't have it either. What I don't understand is why apparently every company got reference material for the new hammer except DST.

According to DST's instagram, the box set is shipping in two weeks. Widow's face still looks odd, but she has combined and seperate versions of her staff.

Cap is officially confirmed for series 2, but that's not exactly surprising.

It's selfish, but if all of this means that, say, TRU 26 makes it to Canada I'd be pretty pleased.

I'd generally rather not get assortments for past MCU movies, but if we did, another Justin Hammer would be very low on the list of who I'd like to see.

An Operation: Zero Tolerance wave could be interesting, in the same vein as wave 76, but I can't see it happening without a feral Wolverine.

I haven't been to Toys R Us in a long time, but I am a bit worried about what this could do to DST.

This version of the Vision is seeming less and less like it's going to happen.

That sounds like Nuke to me.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but did M'Baku end up being important enough to merit being shared between all three assortments?

I was curious, so I found a Walgreens forum. No minimates, but lots of complaining.

It's weird that Thor is blacked out despite lacking either of the potential "spoiler" elements of that design.

Rocket and teen Groot look good, although it would have been nice if Groot's legs were inset into his feet so he'd be shorter.

Also, it looks like the box set has the same Thanos & Iron Man from the 2-pack. @DSTZach, can you confirm?

I would assume it's the same, since that's what happened for Ragnarok and Black Panther.

Widow's costume doesn't seem to be as green as it could have been, so I think I'll get the box set even though I have no interest in the new Bucky.

It does seem a little weird to me that Widow's face is less detailed than her last three movie versions, though. Hopefully the likeness will be stronger on the final product.
