Heroic Slacker Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I noticed that Ross has the big Sentinels marked down to $24.99. I wish I couldn't find one at a discount store, my local Walmart has a bunch but they are all $40 still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I was able to score a FF Spidey and She-Hulk at a Walmart this weekend. I passed onthe Punisher and there wasn't Kang or Scarlet Witch. I really wondered if anything new would be hitting retail and I guess that answers my question. I also noticed TRU's site listed Beast, Kraven and Beta Ray Bill, but they were sold out immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Good news: Target has these on sale for eight buck right now; if memory serves, that price will last through the rest of the month (though don't quote me on that). I picked up Kraven and the Beast there (though, sadly, not Beta Ray Bill). Almost bought the Hulk too, even though I don't need him, but the new Hulk sculpt is fantastic.

groundhog7s Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I'd say Target's sale is good but I can't say that $8 for a figure that used to be $6 or $7 is a good sale. And, there's never any new MU at any of the Target's near me. That being said, if anyone knows where to find a Scarlet Witch or Kang that's not eBay, I'd love to know.

Punisher Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 We've been waiting for these figures so dang long that my anticipation is pretty much depleted. Really only care about Hulk and She-Hulk at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 My LCS just got in 3 cases of these. Scarlet Witch was one-per-case. I got there at 4pm on the day they were put out for sale & there was only one Wanda left. The paint was a bit sloppy on her chest, but i figured it was probably going to be my first & last/only chance to find her at retail. Also Picked up Astonishing Beast. Will get she-Hulk tonight. They are all pretty good looking figures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'd say Target's sale is good but I can't say that $8 for a figure that used to be $6 or $7 is a good sale. And, there's never any new MU at any of the Target's near me. Fair enough. But one must take one's deals when one can get one. Anyway, I found my Beta Ray Bill today, yay. I've always really liked BRB, and I'm glad to get him in any form. I also bought the new Hulk, because he looks so great, but I'm currently in the process of talking myself out of opening him, since we will surely get him again in a two-pack down the road.

groundhog7s Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I caved and bought one of the 3' helicarriers this weekend and should have it delivered today. It was hard to pass up and now my MInimate SHIELD agents will have somewhere to live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Maybe for the first time ever, I am in love with a custom figure. Someday, something like this will totally be mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Found She-Hulk and FF Spidey at a comic book store; I only bought Shulkie because I'd just bought the Iron Spidey Translucent Variant and a clearanced Avengers set at the Disney Store. But that FF Spidey is pretty nice. Now if I could just find Wanda and Kang.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Seen a few FFs. No Kravens. I didn't know there was a clear Spidey. Now I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I caved and bought Wanda and Kang off of eBay. Both were less than buying 2 figures each, so I figured it was better than contantly hunting for them. And I didn't know there was a translucent Spidey either. Do you have pics?

storm 1:08 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I found translucent Iron Spidey at least a month ago at TRU. I wasn't sure if there was a variant before. But I was thinking they just rereleased Iron Spidey translucent form only with no regular form in the assortment. So that's why I found it and not a scalper? But what do I know? Not sure if it is rare but I'm happy I accidentally found it! And I nabbed FF Spidey off the shelf earlier this week at TRU when I saw the side of it. Then sadly put it back. Sorry, I don't like the shading aspect of it. Looks too weird. And I can never find an ML FF Spidey at retail price. :sad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I don't like the shading either. But I've never seen a 6" ML Spidey in stores at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm 1:08 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) Just curious, would ML eventually put some of the older figures in newer assortments like the MU line? That's the only way I figure I can get ML FF Spidey without paying scalper prices... And yeah, I've never seen a ML Spidey or probably even half of any wave in stores.

hellpop Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I didn't know there was a translucent Iron Spidey until I saw him either. I think Storm's probably right, he's more a running change then a variant. And I took a look at eBay when I got him home, and it looks like you can get him for only a few dollars more then retail. But he's pretty cool. I never bought the regular one, but I just couldn't resist the see-through goodness. Now we need a translucent Iron Spidey Minimate! Now that you mention it, I've not seen an ML FF Spidey either, though I haven't really looked all that hard. I'm more interested in the MU one, so that he can join the rest of the Future Foundation.

DarkRedShadow Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 So I was looking at the SDCC 2012 pics for MU and I was wondering if anyone knows when the Nova/Angel wave is coming up? Sorry I did not scroll through the pages if there was an answer to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattallica Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 anyone spotted the costco exclusive quinjet, i now have several costcos near me and am in the costco birthplace but none of them have this item WTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm 1:08 Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I thought I saw it several weeks ago at a local Costco. I didn't pay much attention to it other than walking past it and thinking to myself, "cool, Costco got MU now". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 So this weekend I finally updated my MU display, since I had a least a dozen figures to pack in. This is definitely my fastest growing collection, save for Minimates. I had forgotten that some figures had even been released, or that I'd bought them, but what really amazed me is how much better these figures have gotten in the last year or two. When MU first started, it was hard to decide if it was superior to the old Toy Biz Showdown line; no more. MU's really releasing some beautiful figures now. Kang and Wanda are still proving elusive. I saw a bunch of them at NYCC, but none under $15 (and most at the $20 mark). I keep finding the remnants of this wave, but MU has taught me that, sooner or later, everything turns up at retail. Really hope we get some Amazing Bag-Mans out there soon, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Do you need me to track you down a Kang, hellpop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 At least earlier today Kang was on hasbrotoyshop.com as in stock. Oddly, he was the only one available from that wave. I got mine off of ebay a couple weeks ago and, of course, found him on the pegs the day after I bought him. And as to earlier discussion, I've gotten the Costco Quinjet. Here in Indiana, I've been to two different stores that had huge piles of them. I like them better than the original color scheme and actually like the Cap figure a lot (though I don't plan on keeping him). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Collector Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I love the Costco quinjet! I had no idea such a thing existed. Are they still in stores? Or were they released months ago and now I'm stuck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
