    Those would just be my first three waves, I could see this UNLIMITEDLY... especially if they bring in vehicles..

  2. OK, they've announced so much, and honestly I'm confused, so if someone could explain this to me...

    WHERE do we get the upcoming "Iron Man Through the Ages" box set?

    WHERE do we get the upcoming "First Appearance Avengers" box set?

    WHERE do we get the upcoming "Invaders" box set?

    Sorry if this thread feels unnecessary, but seriously I'm losing track and it would be nice to have all the info in one place.

  3. ALL OF THEM! I own almost every Marvel minimate, save for just a few hard to find ones, so I'm definitely going to keep filling out my collection, and these are some of the best we've seen yet!

    Also, now I see the mounting on his back... me slow, lol. I really dig the original human torch here. For a long time I wondered how they would release a Jim Hammond human torch that would different enough from the Johnny Blase HT. Here's the answer, and it's Grrrrrrrrrrreat!

  4. The invaders set looks pretty sweet. I'm liking the Jim Hammond Human Torch. TRwo different masks for Cap and a hair piece. I can't tell, are both of those round shields for cap is one for Bucky? either way, 3 diff shields in one box is pretty cool. The only thing I would nit pick about would be that it would have been nice for Bucky to have the "kid feet"

  5. I just got mine set, and to be honest, I'm not impressed.

    Iron Man -The arm and leg "armors" are just Apocalypse's repainted, which isn't a big deal, but I DON'T like how unnaturally tall Iron Man is compared to my other Avengers line up. And the helmet HAD indentations for where the eyes should be, and they purposefully painted them way below, what the hell? Joints are also super loose, one leg dangles no matter way. probably from the weight of that unnecessarily tall boot. And the colors were very muted, it only has a vibrant red in pictures apparently.

    Captain America - It's alright, but we already have a battle damaged cap, and the handcuffs are a little longer, aren't they? Looks more like chains, ala Jacob Marley, lol. Still, not a bad one.

    Iron Spidey - Totally missed opportunity to do a cool thing with the three "arms," and the head piece looks kind of over sized when slipped over his head. May have been a good idea to have just made the head the mask, rather than have a slip on. And the eyes are too close together, just a silly looking head all around.

    Nitro - He's decent, it's a simple mate with all used pieces, but that's all it needs. It's good in it's simplicity, can't complain much about this one.

    At the end of the day Iron man is the one that irritated me most.

  6. Wow. Those just look really bad... I mean. wow. just UGLY. What the hell is that Hulk in the back? "battle-damaged"? why are his eyes blacked out? And I know I'm in the minority here, but I couldn't care less about "civilian" mates, to me this set has the same problem the never-released Ghost Rider set does: the normal human to cool creature/super hero ratio is way off.

    Disappointing.
