    wave 79

    Ok. I think the new animated Dracula works also, except for the red eyes
  2. I found a partial set in Downtown Brooklyn
  3. http://minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=1839&n=Winter+Soldier+Agent+of+SHIELD Close but it’s brown, not black
  4. I prefer BrickOwl. Like bricklink but the navigation is much easier.
  5. Where on Jay street? By LIU? My office is by Borough Hall. I've never seen any at the 2 different Court locations or in the Fulton Mall. I also travel to Bensonhurst/Bay Ridge pretty frequently and never saw them their either.
  6. That's ok. I have yet to see a single MCU wave anywhere in in my area. Like, not one, ever. The distribution algorithm makes zero sense.
  7. Found part of the Superior Spider-Man wave (Spider-Man, Cap, and Black Panther) at one of the 4 DR/Walgreens in my area. No Adam Warlock wave yet in Downtown Brooklyn.
  8. Have not seen these in the downtown or western Brooklyn area. I'm shocked that these have not yet his the secondary market (ebay) if they have been out for so long. I wonder why?
  9. really? I've never seen them and so far they have not made it to ebay. Where have you seen them?
  10. That Snoopy wearing Charlie Brown's face is extremely creepy...
  11. I got mine a long time ago as well. I had them on pre-order. On that same note, did anyone get the Infinity War set from BBTS?
  12. sorry, I meant the actual head. it is a custom print?
  13. That is awesome! What did you use for the chest piece?
  14. True to your second point. Way off on the first. What about Carol Danvers says, “I enjoy a fashionable hip sash”? It doesn’t fit the character at all. Steve Rogers’ first suit was fan service and they commented on how silly/useless it was. His second suit was functional and kept the spirit of the character. They went backward with Danvers.
  15. I agree. That’s what frustrates me. There’s not a loose strand strand any of the men’s costumes that does not have a function or serve a purpose, even as a symbol. Yet, the most powerful person in the galaxy (who happens to be a woman) wears totally a useless, nonfunctional, gender-stereotyped item that signifies what, she needs a place to wipe her hands after she punches through a star destroyer? Makes no sense.
  16. Just the one? I don't know. I hope it has a deeper meaning or it just doesn't seem worth it to me.
  17. Still no luck with these in Brooklyn. Now, I know that Captain Marvel was barely in this film (and has absolutely zero chance of getting a new figure) but there is an up close look at her final costume on twitter. I am usually ok with the translation of costumes to screen and I think this has a cool retro look. The only thing that's getting is the sash. She's a battle-tested, unstoppable warrior. Why a sash? It just seems like fan service. The only answer I'll accept is that it's a piece of Valkyrie's cape and a symbol of their eternal cosmic love.
