Everyone is reporting the Jewel wave but my 5 Below actually for the Living Laser wave.....
0 -
I ended up getting two of the sets since I had just placed an Amazon order on Saturday and couldn't find anything else to get. I think I'll keep one-pack carded and open up the other. Only really want Kraven and Mysterio anyway.

Luckily a 5 Below just opened near me. Picked up a Groot/Rocket set... just cuz and two Starlord/Gamoras for customs.
They also had the pre-Last Jedi Star Wars figs for 5 each. A lot of these got blown out for a couple bucks at Target recently, but I picked up Krennic for fodder (middle aged white dude head and a really nice white cap might be useful for something)

I just can't do it. I think 13.00 is just too much for these figures.
I might be out of the comic line.

Wow, that's a retro Falcon costume... Don't need it but I Would buy it.
I think that's the modern new Falcon.

Oh I'm sorry--was the point to brag that you found them or was it to help the other people on the board?
Just post a link-be helpful.

ID TOYS have wave 2 of the single carded figures up for order.
Hawkins... POST LINKS. It's not really helpful otherwise.

At SDCC I glimpsed a new toyline that I was unfamiliar with-- looked like crazy monsters.
Found them today- Disney's Mech X4... I guess it's a new show.
The mech is bad looking but the monsters are cool
I picked up the Chameleo-Wasp
It looks cool with the Marvel figures.

Tempting at that price... might pull the trigger if I can find some other stuff to ship with it.

The MU/Infinite figs are clearanced at Target. 7.00 at my store. Mostly just had Visions, Tritons and Ironman.

They are 35.00 because they are only going to sell a small number of them so they need to recoup costs. Presumably the market for a Marvel figure would be greater.

I bought the Titan Heroes Sandman last night just to see how he'd look with 3.75" figures. I had no idea the Titan Heroes have more than 5 poa. He needs elbows and knees, but he's not half bad and it was an easy impulse buy at $7. I don't expect them to get too deep into character selection, but I wouldn't mind Dormammu in this line. This would also be a cost efficient way to army build Sentinels too.
The newer molds have ball-joint shoulders and hinged thighs. It's funny, the villains tend to have newer molds and therefore much better articulation than the heroes.
So Sandman's articulation is not universal across the rest of the line? Thank you for letting me know. I think I'll skip Ultron as it seems he only has 5 poa. Do the Ant-Man figures have ball shoulders and hips?
Antman is the standard 5 poa.
Black Panther and Groot might be the only hero characters right now with balljointed shoulders that I'm sure of. (Maybe Starlord?)

I did the same thing a few months ago and picked up Sandman and the movie Antman figure.
The newer molds have ball-joint shoulders and hinged thighs. It's funny, the villains tend to have newer molds and therefore much better articulation than the heroes.
Even funnier, DC has a similar line that has WAY more articulation and are at a similar price-point.
I also don't understand why they don't do a "backdoor" Sentinel and release an Ironman variant in Sentinel colors. Just call it "Twilight Armor Ironman" or something.
They do do odd color variants.
I don't think we'll see too many interesting choices in that line though, they really play it safe unless it ties into a movie or cartoon (Crossbones).

I actually want all 5 figures but 19 bucks for each, come on now!!
Yep. Those figs are simply not worth retail let alone 80% mark-up.

I got the Hero Clix Shuma Gorath for $20. He looks great with MU figures.

Got the Vulture/Spiderman two pack yesterday at Target. (are these store exclusives? I can't find them anywhere else)
Really impressed with the figures. Spidey is skinny which is good--although he might technically be bigger than any previous movie Spiderman figure in this scale.
Vulture is pretty cool and has good leg articulation. The wings look a little undersized from the movie so I may get the action feature vulture figure and modify those wings to fit.

I believe they said the bugs would be a wave 2 goal.
I also want to say they said they wouldn't necessarily be the creepy glove hand puppet style like the originals.. but I could be mis-remembering.

Really excited to find these. I like the Vulture figure and I think GI JOE movie Zartan might make a good balding Keaton alternate head.

I went to Wal-Mart this weekend--I rarely shop there-- and I found the 3.75 Star Wars super articulated figures on sort of clearance for 6.00. I picked up Cassian and Jynn for customs.
Any chance they had a spare Cassian or the Scariff trooper? That wave hasn't hit within 100 miles of me. I'm not optimistic about finding them.
Seeing the pics of the Sinister 6 set has me changing my tune a bit. They look great packaged and I'm almost tempted to get a spare to keep carded.
They definitely had a few Cassians, but I'm nowhere near that store now.

Picked up the animated GOTG series Thanos yesterday at Target. I thought with a repaint he'd be a great MCU Thanos... but I think he's too tall. From what I can tell from set photos, Thanos will be closer in height to 8 feet not 10. Here's a size comparison with Black Panther and my custom Ultron mk. 3.

Where's the Baby Groot from?
And what unmasked head is that on the comic Star-Lord?
Toddler Groot is from the TRU Groot Evolutions (ML) figure.
The unmasked head is from the Hyperion 2-pack - Supreme Hyperion.
Ahhh... Ok. Thank you.

Saw the Dr. Strange and Guardian 2-pack at TRU today. I can only warn people that the QC is horrible, Normal strange has major eye issues along with Yondu and the other two figures just don't look great. I went through 3 DS packs and all had bad eyes and I must of went through around 7 GotG packs and all had issues. At $32.99 maple leafs money I wasn't gonna grab them with garbage paint and plus Cap and Falcon are shelf-warming hard so this may be a wait for a price drop set.
Thank you for the QC heads up. Does Yondu have an arrow for his holster? I think you're the first and only person to spot these at retail so far. I'm guessing "$32.99 maple leafs" means you're Canadian right? Has anyone managed to find these in the US?
Yondu comes with nothing but they clearly intended him too.
I got my order from HTS- Strange's eyes are passable but NOT good. The figure is nice.
The figues FEEL a lot like the movie Cap that came with the motorcycle...kind of hollow feeling but well made--glad they dropped the rotating socket leg articulation. The sculping on the GOTG figs is amazing although I think Starlord looks a little too jacked. Yondu does have a cool middle-age paunch belly and the likeness to Rooker is great.

If I ever have the room to set up my Fallout settlement diorama again, I definitely need one for my wasteland Doctor's office.
