Anyone found the Rocket Grenade Captain America with the Steve Rogers head yet?

I wonder if the Black Widow in the case is the long-rumored variant we saw in pictures from two years ago?

I think part of it is that most eBay sellers do Buy It Now and jack the price up to its supposed "worth". Then it sits there for a year and no one wants to go near it. Putting an item up for action is the only way to find it's true value. An item is only worth what someone will pay for it. Although I do agree that seller probably just screwed up in this case.
I just sold all of my Palisades Muppets figures. People had some of the rarer ones up for $150-$300 for a single figure! I put mine up for action and they sold for $50-$75 which is probably closer to their real value. Also a lot of it was sold to Europeans since our dollar is barely worth the paper its printed on. So they can go a little higher without feeling ripped off.
I don't completely agree with this. People are often wiling to pay the buy it now price as well, making the actual worth the calculated average between the lower auction value and the higher buy it now prices.
In my experience, most of the auction sales end under the average value for any given item. Knowing that, I personally determine value based on the average price of completed listings for the item, minus 5-10%.
Yeah, from a seller's perspective, I almost never list things as an auction, because they always go for dirt cheap. I just look up the completed listings for "Buy It Now" listings and sell it around the average I'm seeing actually sell.

I removed mine fairly easy.

Found the Modern Thor and WWII Cap variants at Family Dollar tonight. The only Family Dollar around me, though, is in a shady neighborhood. I basically risked life and limb for those toys!

Likewise GP...ill take one of them as well if you are able to find him.
Sure thing, guys!

I've actually seen clear-armed Electro variant at two separate Walmarts. Each only had one, though, and neither had the clear mask.

Four out of five of the Walmarts were the most stocked with MU I've ever seen. Plenty of the last two waves and revision single-carded figures. They were literally falling off the pegs. Same with the comic packs.
And there were tons of the team packs. It was almost too much.

Is everything seeing that Walmart Marvel Universe Ultimate Gift Set around? I went to five Walmarts this past weekend and none of them had it. A few did have the Star Wars one.

Got my shipping notice for the Iron First/Power Man and Spidey/Cap Britain two-packs today. Weird. I thought it was going to be a while longer.
0 -
Yeah, thanks for the heads-up. I ordered it and reordered the Spider-Man/Captain Britain pack, canceled the original order for that pack and ended up with free shipping on both!

Found the new Namor at TRU today. The only other new figure was the upside-down Scarlet Spider. I got the one with the stand that says Sub-Mariner. Is that the variant or the Imperius Rex one?
0 -
I'd wait a while on the white variant. The reason it's not being found in stores is the reason the Guardians set isn't: They haven't put it out yet. The first wave was always the X-Force and Avengers sets.
Pretty soon eBay will be flooded with them.

Did that variant Havok come from HTS.com?

Today's Haul Part I (got to wait for the mail in 2 hrs)
Sadly Hasbro thought I would be happier with 2 freaking variants of FF4 LOL
So yeah, 1 is for sale or trade.
I wrote them and they said that they ran out of variants and they wanted to get them out the door, that he apologizes that I received two of the same and that I can send one and get the blue one LOL wth
You are acquiring these at a ridiculously quick pace. How much have you spent so far?

anyone find the new Powerman/IronFist at retail yet? for the guy who bought one from the indiana online site, how much was it?
i think it's this one
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Universe-Po...99#ht_542wt_952
$19.95 plus a crazy $10.35 for economy shipping :/
I'm just waiting for these to go up on HTS.com, which should be in the next few weeks. Hopefully, they stay up longer than the Deadpool/Taskmaster set.

Was happy top pick up an X-Men Giant Size Variant pack at the Disney Store in Sterling Heights, MI today.
Was on sale and had a coupon so it was worth picking up. :)
how much? :)
$28 plus %20 off coupon.
Where did you get a coupon? Hope its not one of those fake ones.
It was a coupon for the Disney Store that came with the bill/statement from the wife's Disney Visa card. It was pretty random, but you earn points for spending, so I basically just used the coupon that came, used the card and earned more points for future goodies. :)
There's a Disney Store in Sterling Heights? Where? I had no idea. My fiance's parents live in Shelby Township and I never knew that.

I am actually hoping I do find anything in stores this week because I am broke after the Comic-Con exclusives.
I feel you there. I wish there'd be a break in new product, but fall is usually pretty busy. Waves 14 and 15 are coming soon, as is the next wave of comics packs. The drought actually usually ends up being from November to February.

PayPal by default takes money from whatever bank account it's connected to, if it's connected to a bank account. If you don't have enough in that bank account, it'll take it from the credit card it's associated with. You can, on a transaction-by-transaction basis, switch it to pay out from the credit card and not the bank account.

Not MOC figures, but plenty of loose figures. Check out my trade/sell thread if you're interested.

I just put up a bunch of new stuff. Tons of 6" Spidey bad guys!

shipping prices are outrages!!
Shipping prices aren't listed. I need to know which figures someone is interested in and then what their zip code is to have a shipping quote.
And I'm not sure if you'd shipped anything lately, but the cheapest you can ship anything for with USPS Priority Mail is $5.20. And for anything that doesn't fit in the USPS's flat-rate boxes, I actually have to go out and buying shipping boxes, which cost $1.50 to $2.00 a piece.

Hi Everyone,
