...what am I supposed to do with the slabs Hulk came with? I'm so confused

Not sure if this has been posted, but there's a promo code that'll shave 20% off online, L211101E6MKZH05. Just used it, basically negated shipping.

Going through this list, it amazes me how many great character are still remaining. I voted Gladiator, because apparently no matter line I collect, I cannot get a freakin' Gladiator figure.

I live around the corner from a TRU (NEast Philly), so whenever a new wave starts hitting I check basically every day. This morning I walked in with a gut feeling that they'd be there, and sure enough I walked out with Crossbones and Balder. Whenever I get a "feeling," they're usually spot on, dating back to the glory days of Marvel Legends.

Got my set in the mail today, have to say, DST really dropped the ball with this one...

Now I'll never appreciate another boxset again! This one is absolute perfection....love it.

Just when it seemed safe to stop checking TRU.com every morning for a while...

My sentiments exactly. Gah...

Good catch. I can confirm that my MvC Hulk and Wave 41 Hulk have x2 right leg coverings, and my Red Hulk has x2 left leg coverings. That's really strange. Too bad none of the shades match, I'm not sure how a mass swap would work.

I'm awful at posing Minimates, but you get the picture. Literally. Also you really can't see it in person, the flash makes it seem much more prevalent.

I used Magneto's purple hand blast, just bent up a paper clip, shoved it in the blast and the hand and it works fine. I'll put up a pic when I'm home.

Boom Boom > Kang, apparently, haha. Who's leg do I have to hump for a Gladiator??

I saw that, doesn't look remotely like a Minimate but it's freakin' glorious! Can't wait!

I actually think it looks more like a Minimate than this. I think DST did a great job here balancing the absurd appearance of MODOK with Minimate style.

Hahaha yea you might have something there. I don't care, I love it! I just know some people might have problems with it based on past reactions of deviating too far from what makes a Minimate, a Minimate.

Johnny, it was the phrase "you people" that cast your comments in such a condesending light to me. If you couldn't tell, it hit me just wrong last night and I am sorry I overreacted. And I do really hope we answered the question as best we could.

It's cool man, I just thought it was ludicrous enough to use "you people" in a condescending manner on a toy board that I'm a member of that it would be seen as a really obvious joke. My bad. Yes, the question was answered and I appreciate it although I don't like the answer.

Hahah you guys took me in an offensive manner? Jeeze louise, I thought adding "lol" and "hahaha" would show that I'm not condescending or being rude in any manner, I was literally laughing at how easily everyone goes off on tangents when toys are the topic, and how they usually turn to wish lists. I've done it like a million times...I meant no malice. And for the love of God, I see "you people" offending people for race and what not but not toy collectors! Hahaha my bad guys, no I wasn't being negative in the least, just laughing. Thanks for the info, I'm just excited to get these soon.

And seriously, maybe I took for granted that I've been on toy boards since like...02, and I forget when I'm relatively new, but never ever take me seriously, I am a light-hearted, jovial man and I love everyone.

Lol you people and your tangents. Does anyone know when the announced ones are coming out? I know everyone has a wish list hahaha.

When in the dickens are we getting more than the two P2 boxsets? This is...weird.

I don't remember if this image hit, but Wave 2 was officially revealed apparently:

Oh, when's the first wave supposed to actually hit? I have the variants...

Thanks for the info you lucky dog. I checked 3 around Philly...nada. Booo.

Maxcarnage, where do you live? Not in a creepy I want to watch you sleep way lol, a general vicinity will do.

Yeah, just like Angel we went without for years, then they just unloaded every variant they could think of on us. Regular Asian Psylocke, black and white Asian Psylocke, masked and hooded "Outback" European Psylocke, and now early appearance, pink billowy outfit European Psylocke.

Gotcha. So there's no new character I'm missing or any junk like that, right? I get confused with names...she's just Psylocke right?

Is there any reason to pick up that Nightcrawler set? I have a good Nightcrawler...and I can't think of a use for Betsy. Haven't we gotten a ton of her recently?

Chuck says he has a particular Spidey wave in mind, if he gets his way. Not just a regular wave, but an “eclectic” Spidey wave based on a storyline from about 20 years ago. And if this wave comes to light, the army builder will be SHIELD soldiers and it will make total sense in being in that wave due to the story. Anyone know what storyline he is talking about?

Either way, SHIELD army builders have been heavily discussed.

The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man came out around 20 years ago, and featured at least one SHIELD agent in it. That story could give us Beetle, Boomerang, and an updated Rhino.

Anyone know when and where I can grab the Stormbreaker set? I assume AFX but it's not up on the site. For that matter, the MvC set as well from EE. I assume...EE? I'd rather knock em both out together. I forget if Luke's gets them...

We will have these up for preorder by Wednesday.

Thanks for the heads up, Luke, I'll place my order then!

I know this was a WHILE back in the discussion but just for the record...

They sold TRU Minimates at C2E2 this year too. I was there. I guess we just never saw pictures and no one ever thought to bring it up before now (self included).

Same wave, the Warlock/Magik, Shatterstar/Cannonball one.

The exclusives sold out pretty early in the con. In fact I'm pretty positive that I still needed Magik/Warlock at the time and didn't get one, because I got there too late (I have one now though, so no worries).

You may be asking, "Then how did you know they had them?" Because they still had some other sets from that wave on the hook, like Wolverine and Magneto, and when I asked Chuck he said they had the exclusives earlier, but they were gone fast.

There were also pictures of them on their FB, and you could easily make out Warlock.

Do any Marvel characters show up in the Femme Fatale packs?
