Yeah the new torso artic is nice. But they should have painted Spidey's web lines. I did that on the previous release and it made him look 100 times better. I would have liked Morbius on a better body. The Sunfire one is right for his stats plus it has butterfly joints. Maybe clearance if it makes it there. Or eBay the Spidey? Not a preorder though . For sure.

Well that's a weird 2 pack, that's the same Morbius from all those years ago, don't think there is a single change, at least the Six Arm Spider-Man has torso articulation, but did anyone really want these 2 again, I mean the Morbius is still a nice figure but I did think it was really easy to find when that wave dropped or am I wrong?

If they were going to retool the torso of the previous Six-Armed Spider-Man to make room fot he diaphragm joint... why not just retool the torso of the Amazing Fantasy Spider-Man to make room for the four arms?

The lack of torso articulation was just one of the issues of the original Six-Armed Spider-Man.

Like most others that have already posted, I don't have any interest in this 6-Arm Spidey / Morbius 2-pack. I'll pass on Bucky Cap as well, just Joe Fixit for me of these 3 offerings and I can't say that I'm really even excited for that one.

Morbius is the exact same figure from before, literally nothing is different except maybe some face printing. Spider-Man has a new diaphragm joint that looks like it probably won’t move any more than the static joint from the first figure, plus he’s still on an outdated movie mold. They could have at least used a comic mold this time and given him a new torso. Morbius could have been on Sunfire or Vulcan to make it feel at least a little new but he’s not. Was there a single person who was asking for this set?  Like I said, I’d have taken either one of them on a retro card, but this is a waste of a 2-pack. I think the six arm story collided with the Morbius story in TAS but neither one of these is the animated version.

The fact that I love this new Bucky Cap on the new body just goes without saying but I'm liking this Joe Fixit more and more. I see a few people point out how huge the Tommy Gun is but that tracks about right. It's a tad bit before my time but I do have a few of the comics and if I'm not mistaken the gun or guns were custom made for his build and I think even shot larger rounds than normal. Also many references to the Marvel Contest of Champions show him holding a very large Tommy Gun. I think a lot of ML have taken reference from this game and vice versa because there are some characters that almost pop right out of the screen such as Colossus and Venompool and the new Ronan. I just looked at the model they used for She-Hulk and it would be so awesome it they could do one that looks like that in ML. As far as the new 2 pack. Six arm Spidey? Don't care. Morbius? Are you kidding me?! They didn't even be botherd to break out the Vulcan mold for this guy.

A torso retool of a figure that was unpopular and a straight-up re-release of a 7-year-old figure. No new body. Not even new limbs. Just a straight-up re-release with a new cape. This is an easy pass for me. They could have easily given Morbius the Vulcan body but Hasbro really Morbin' out the Bucky Cap mold again to save costs.

I will be getting this if anything for that Spidey (I'm a spideyphile after all) but they could have at least given Morbius a new head. 

This is a perfect set AS a Walmart exclusive. We have figures and costumes before, and it give people who missed them to get this. 

I do really like that that they are a 2-pack with these two as that is how Morbius was introduced in the comics.

I went ahead and pre-ordered Joe Fixit and the Morbius 2-pack, but passed on Bucky Cap and all of the Joe / Star Wars offerings. I might end up cancelling the Morbius pack, but decided to go ahead and order and decide later. I've already got both of the original figures. I've also got 2 of the Joe Fixit BAFs, but I like those big suited bodies. I'm using one for Shadow King currently.

Snagged Bucky Cap and Fixit..

Checked my order history and forgot about the D+ Ronin I had ordered months back. The thing that concerns me is that the Ronin says to be delivered this Thursday despite it not being processed or shipped. Same crap they pulled woth StarLord...so there's that.

On the plus side, last year I snagged the exclusive Spider-Man (FFH?)  and Black Panther and had no issues. Spidey actually arrived the same week I ordered.. 

Also, noticed that on the item page it stated that Cap and Fixit would ship by Aug 1st.. but after getting order confirmation,  it stated September.  So no idea if Walmart has gotten their $#!+ together.... guess we wait and see

I was thinking I wanted Bucky, but kinda on the fence now, don't know if I really need it, so I'm gonna wait and just see if I see him when he hits stores in stock, not gonna pre order.

I had to get Joe and Bucky. And Shooter from GI Joe. Glad I got one of each. It's a weird thiing. Usually if I manage to get at least one of something I want I'll usually come across another one in the store at some time. And sometimes at a discount. It's like once the pressure is off the universe kind of throws it at you later with no strings when you don't expect it.
