dr baghead Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Additionally, there will be an assortment of single-packed figures available at comic and specialty shops that will showcase the various classes of SHIELD agents, and will be your only place to pick up Dr. Bruce Banner! That made me sad at first because I wouldn’t mind a new Bruce Banner but don’t want movie SHIELD agents then... I remembered Bruce Banner was Mark Ruffalo now and not Edward Norton again, so F’ the army builder. Although I am happy Hulk and Iron man are again in a two pack together as they tend to be the only ones I want in Avenger waves like this. Also THREE variants of Redacted in one wave?! That’s just crazy for someone no ones ever heard of! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Am I the only one annoyed that this is three whole waves of retread Avengers, both comic and movie, when you combine these with Wave 44? I mean, the only thing I'm hopeful for with this wave is we'll finally get a hairpiece for movie Loki. The selling point of these waves to me is a hairpiece!! I'm certainly with you on Wave 44, but I don't think this wave could have turned out much better. There's only two major characters that wouldn't be retreads. I don't think DST could get away with making an Avengers movie wave that was Hawkeye & Maria Hill, Skrull & Skrull, SHIELD Agent & SHIELD Agent.

Mystery Man Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I plan to save lots of money not buying minimates in 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImABarRoomHero Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I think the plot is that the Skrulls plan to bulldoze the Earth to make room for a cosmic freeway. And the Avengers respond by putting together a world wide petition against it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 BUMP because the possiblity of having to wait for the Punisher, Kingpin and Spider-Sense Spidey is driving me nuts: Wave 44 is the main comic-book counterpart to the movie line, and should come out first, but there may be some supplemental comic-style Avengers figures, as well, for those of you seeking more members/foes, etc. Wave 13 is June, so after this. TRU Series 13 is out in June? I thought they, and Series 43 (Jean DeWolff) would be out much sooner than that. Also, supplemental comic-style members/foes sounds like my last, great hope.

Mirymate Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Plot has already been confirmed. Loki uses the cosmic cube, this brings notice from the Skrulls and apparently Thanos (Thanos has only been mentioned). And they all come and have lunch on Earth. Confirmed where? By whom?

blizzerd Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Pretty much exactly what I was expecting. Glad I can skip the Nick Fury pack since I already have Samuel L. Fury, will probably get the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it had been. No it is not, or at least the article I had read in which I thought it was confirmed in is not posted anymore. It is now one of those 99% sure rumor things.

bilbofett Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I think it's gonna be Chameleon disguised as Loki. No, no. It's gonna be Kang in disguise as Loki :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Well - i'm glad to see we'll be getting Maria Hill & Hawkeye. they're really the only characters i wanted to see, and i was a bit worried that Maria might not make it. Guess it's gonna be a quiet year for x-men fans. It's probably only fair after 2010 EDIT: Well - not too quiet, forgot about the X_Force & New Mutants packs coming to TRU. Wave 44 is the main comic-book counterpart to the movie line, and should come out first, but there may be some supplemental comic-style Avengers figures, as well, for those of you seeking more members/foes, etc.Wave 13 is June, so after this. Oooh. More comic-style Avengers and Foes? Can you give us any hints yet? Will these be updates on previously released characters, or brand new Avenger folk?

stack32 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Probably something like Cap, Thor, Iron Man, and Tigra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is now one of those 99% sure rumor things. Or 99% think we're sure kinda things. Not trying to bust your chops, BarRoom, but I've heard that rumor in other places, and they can't tell/show me where they got the information to confirm it either.

Nessex Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 This is the closest thing i could find to a reliable source linking the Skrulls to the Avengers film . . . and it's not really what i'd call water-tight. Most of those tie-in games feature villains that never appear in the film. The official X-Men 3 game featured X-23, Master Mold, Silver Samurai, and Hydra! Of course it also featured villains that did appear in X3 like Magneto, Pyro & Juggernaut. Don't get me wrong. I think there's a good chance it might be the Skrulls. But i'm not ready to bet the house on it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I have a "feeling" that "The Redacted" are all the same character. Loki will be the Big Bad in the movie with his other-worldly/extra-dimensional hoards. He will be packed with an extra army builder in the TRU assortment ala Thor (Asguargian) and CATFA (Hydra Flame Trooper). If there is an extra baddie in the movie, I think he will wind up in the box set with Final Battle Whiplash, Arnim "Human" Zola, and X3 Magneto.

boyd Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Also THREE variants of Redacted in one wave?! That’s just crazy for someone no ones ever heard of! Ah, but Redacted is getting a lot of buzz for their acting in the movie. Apparently Redacted just steals every scene they're in. They're a lot of buzz around Redacted - the kind of buzz that earns Oscars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 TRU Series 13 is out in June? I thought they, and the Jean DeWolff specialty shop stuff would be out much sooner than that.

dj87 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I'm beginning to think the villains should actually be called The Redacted... for the confusion, rather amusing... indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Please keep the Avengers discussion/spoilers in the Avengers movie thread!!! I'm more excited for these than wave 44. I love movie waves. I wonder if we'll get new Spiderman minimaes? (Edited for extreme font size) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattallica Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Chitauri/Skrulls are the same thing, which name THEY WILL BE in the film is unknown but they are the same race. ..................NONESOME Edited December 14, 2011 by Mattallica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Please keep the Avengers discussion/spoilers in the Avengers movie thread!!! We generally end up discussing the films in these threads a little bit, especially since the redacted are announced as minimates, and we are just casually discussing who they might be. So I don't think anything here has gotten too far off track, or ventured into spoiler territory, as no one knows anything about the redacted at this point. But if any spoiler images or info does come out, it should be tagged as a spoiler, and as more movie info does come out, it should go mostly in the movie thread. But you have to admit that REDACTED minimates are a source of curiosity. Also I edited your font size because it was making my eyes bleed. :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, my money's still on the Cap's Kooky Quartet San Diego Exclusive. Not that I wouldn't want an Avengers Forever set, an Avengers West Coast set, or an Young Avengers set more, but I think the odds are that we'll get a silver age pack. Just saying.

Mirymate Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Yep, that's right, Webhead, someone mentioned Kang again in another thread. Take a few deep breathes before that bulging vien in your head officially explodes. It's all fun and games until someone has an anurism... then it's just games.
