This Skrull 2-pack was shipped from BBTS yesterday and I should have it tomorrow along with Franklin and Valeria. I'm excited! I only ordered one of these 2 skrull 2-packs to start with, but I think I might end up getting two of these sets depending on how much I like that Spider-Woman in person.

It's been a super busy week for Legends for me as I also received the 3 full BAF waves (Ch'od, Cassie and Cosmo), the 2nd X-Men 3-pack and the Spiderverse Cyborg Spider-Woman and Spot figures all this week! McFarlane also shipped out the Flash movie stuff including the $250 Batwing this week and I'll have those today. While it's fun, I truly wish that they'd spread things out more for my wallet's sake! I also just got the Batman '66 Library, BatBoat and King Tut, Flashpoint Superman, Gold Label Beast Boy and of course comic Yondu all last week. With the way it's been going I'm basically expecting the $450 Mezco Ultimate Godzilla that I pre-ordered to be charged any day now too!

Sounds like it's Christmas for you... but one you have to pay for, lol!

Man I saw these go up on sale a few days ago and I'm really torn on whether to get them or not. I originally bought three sets at full price. Just for the Super Skrull alone. I sold the extra Spider Ladies to my cusomizer friend who does awesome work with the Moonstone bodies. But the whole issue now is I'm really worried they've given up on the Skrull concept altogether. Personally I think it would be an amazing way to update older figures on newer body models. Just redo the figure and include a Skrull head and call it new. I don't see the downside. Unfortunately with the massive disappointment of the MCU Secret Invasion Disney+ show I feel like they've just decided to abandon it on the ML end as well.

Yeah, they should be doing that. I also suspect that since the Giant Man HasLab didn't get its Skrull Head, maybe Hasbro think there isn't an interest for Skrulls. Also I hope they do a Criti Noll/ X-Men Super Skrull set

I highly doubt they have abandoned Skrulls all together just because the D+ show under performed, I'm sure sometime in the future they will give us another Skrull oriented offering, This 2 pack got a push because of the show,  but ultimately I don't think it selling or not was because of the failure of that said show, or a reason behind not putting out any more Skrull items, Hasbro just swings they way they want, I feel like the comic figure product usually doesn't really correlate with the MCU as we may think, Look everyone said we'd probably never get any more Inhumans because that show was a dud, yet we just got a Karnak, Crystal and Lockjaw, with a Rumoured Black Bolt & Triton for next year, nobody thought Eternals would get a push, yet we just got a Ikaris.

I'd be surprised if we didn't see a Army builder Skrull pop up again somewhere soon as plug into a wave. That figure was under produced and highly wanted.

anyways this 2 pack is awesome, really a great buy for anyone on the fence there is a lot you can play around with here in terms of display ability, I mean just for starters you can have a JD SW, and a Veranke, a multi different variables for the super Skrull., plus the parts for the BAF plug into this and vice versa from what I assume.

Honestly if they were smart they'd put out a Skrull headsculpt pack.  It would inspire people to double buy figures just so they could have skrull versions of their favorites to go alongside the normal versions.  No need to do whole figures, just put out a 6-pack of heads or so.
