3 3/4" sighting and hauls

[jason1551]

I don't recall the GSXM version having the blue highlights.

[PushYouDown]

I think that was the variant with the white highlights Storm and the purple translucent Nightcrawler.

[jason1551]

It's listed as the 2010 version, so I must not have paid attention to him.

[Clam]

this is the 2010 X-men 6 pack variant version, the pic is from our database. It looks pretty much exactly like that ebay one, except unless the lighting is playing tricks, that ebay one has slightly darker reds.

oops, I missed that too. maybe it isn't him. The gold color stood out as different to me. but perhaps it is just the lighting

eBay's kokomo-toys has carded Cloak and Abomination in stock for 16.00 but will accept $15.00 if you offer.

 

More proof the first rollout is 2 x Cloak and 2 x Abomination. That's a given now.

Man they used to charge cheaper for new figs, that's about $19-$20 with shipping per fig. More proof that these mom and pop stores are going to use the "These are the last waves" to jack the prices up on these last figures.

[DresselRebel]

The thing about Abomination and Cloak is that we don't know how quick these are going to dry up and convert to A-Bomb and Dagger because of their variant status. Bag Man dried up right away and switched to Future Foundation Spidey. Translucent Strange dried up quick and converted to regular Strange. Some variants like Blastaar aren't as bad. But we don't know which way this is going to go. I don't mind spending $15 for Abomination and Cloak, or Dagger and A-Bomb for that matter. It's a small hedged bet to ward off a $50-75 price tag later.

 

The rest of the wave I'm getting for $9.99 at TRU or Walmart no sweat.

 

By the way, with $6-8 gas minimum to go on a toy hunt (probably repeated hunts) and sales tax, the figures cost the same or more as Kokomo even if you find them at brick and mortar.

There's still plenty of time for me to customize your Chameleon figure into an absolutely fabulous Snooki likeness.

One of the Walmarts here marked the Assemblers down to $5, so I picked up an extra Thumper to repaint as Gamma and an extra Nightclub to repaint in movie-accurate red/gold.

 

*Edit*

Also found the new wave of the Iron Man All-Stars. The Nano Shell Armor had a hand that had melted down to a nub. Looked like he was an amputee.

[shaneva002]

Got my Abomination in today, love him.

[stitch13]

Finally found Retaliation wave 3.5 at WM, but Cobra Commander and Roadblock were the only ones left. Nothing new on the Marvel front.

Is the X-men 3-pack showing up anywhere besides target? I missed my shot before Target clearanced these.

It has been in Toys R us as well. Some Walmarts.

sorry to jump on late on this discussion are we talking about the rogue pack?

Amen to that, the cost of hunting....against buying on ebay or the other sites for a secure purchase is making a lot of sense.

Got a Dagger in the mail today, and for once I read the back of the card--which is now a crazy graphic design disaster because it needs to be trilingual. But anyway, the description of the "Marvel Knights" is completely bizarre to me, and seems to offer a feeble attempt to explain why the figures aren't together in a comic pack, only in "story" terms:

 

"Once, this super-powered duo fought crime together. Now, Cloak rages unchecked, controlled by a dark force. The MARVEL KNIGHTS must stop him, but Dagger may be the only one who can return him to balance before he consumes them all!"

 

Um...isn't Cloak's whole thing that he controls THE Darkforce? Is this some other dark force that has taken control of him? And who, then, are the "MARVEL KNIGHTS?" Dagger is clearly one of them, but Cloak is obviously not, since he's OUT TO KILL THEM.

 

Wow. I haven't been reading these cardbacks in a while. Are they all this bad?

 

Is this how they plan to handle Northstar and Aurora as well? Maybe like this:

 

"Once as close as a brother and sister can be, now Northstar has joined the X-men, and is thus SOLD SEPARATELY. It's up to Aurora to convince him to return and fight once more alongside ALPHA FLIGHT, the team that is mentioned on the front of this package."

[2GOLD]

The Marvel Knights were Daredevil, Punisher, Dagger, Shang Li, Moon Knight and Black Widow. And yeah, Cloak went into kill em all mode for even the smallest thing. I think it only last 9 issues though...

[feihong]

Huh. Thanks for the information, there. Never read all that Quesada stuff; I didn't know there were stories there where Cloak was the bad guy. It's still weird to me, because they call Cloak and Dagger Marvel Knights on the packaging.

[Prem1x]

Cloak and Dagger still would have made a better title.

[2GOLD]

I pretty much bet it was originally Cloak and Dagger when it was a two pack but then when they split it apart and realized Dagger was going to be next to impossible to find with the line ending, they switched it to Marvel Knights.

[PushYouDown]

Cloak and Dagger still would have made a better title.

 

They can't copyright "Cloak and Dagger" though.
