It's weird. When we still had TRU, they were $19.99 at all times In my Walmarts, I've seen them for $18.87, but my Walmarts don't seem to carry them anymore - at least not my closest ones. Target seems to vary depending on the wave. Some are that $22.98 price point that GameStop has, some are $20.49, some are $19.98. And all of my LCS that have them, price them at $29.99.

The Avengers would be 22.98 but BP was 19.98. Spider-Man was 22.98 per as well.

The Hyperion mold, I never liked. I would like to see them retire it. I think that aside from Venom & Creed, there aren't many characters that they could keep using it for, to keep up consistency. As for the Bucky mold, I like it, and hope they continue to use it, but they do need to incorporate the other molds more. I do think Sunfire is too bulky for their leaner characters (Torch just looks wrong on it), but it is a good one. Pizza Spidey needs more use, especially for the leaner characters. They need to use AIM/GR more, like the arms. The arms might hinder it, but Reed is begging to be used more. I would love to see them mix-n-match parts more, like they do for the female figures.

They seem to be redoing everything from the dark days so, I'd say Banshee is coming soon.

Nope. I'm this close to eBay

i would love to see a chainmail Cap Punisher van Franklin & Valeria

They really could've thrown in a couple of more accessories for that price.

Hmmm....So was Rogue the last Moonstone buck use? No one in A-Force had it.

I'm gonna order Magik off eBay. I give up

Modern MS Thanos is actually the same height as ML Thanos. I don't think ML will ever make a smaller one, so...I'm targeting MS

GameStop had MCU10 Ultron, but I ended up getting it from EE. It was cheaper. I ordered Red Skull from EE, as well. The one Walgreens go to had 3 Things & 4 Surfers last week. On Thursday, they had 0. No MLs at all. I'm gonna periodically heck for Magik, but I'll prob just order online.

True. But what's next year? We have a Spidey wave, that has the Kingpin, X-wave, and Avengers wave which will prob be lots of movie figs, a Captain Marvel wave and....? It definitely won't be as strong as thing year...or at least no where as many. We had about 12 waves this year....1 per month

An X-Men themed vintage wave would be great for them for their inevitable repaints - X-Factor Cyke, Emma, another Jean Grey, Giant Sized Storm, classic Iceman, then someone like Magneto. Does anyone think that Hasbro possibly shoot their load this year? They've thrown everything and the kitchen sink this year, and while next year looks promising, they definitely can't match the output. Plus, the finale this year is the possible pegwarming BP.

I don't have as much of a problem with someone buying 2, because the way I see it, at some point they're gonna help out another fellow collector get something via trade or selling at reasonable prices. I see a lot IG collectors letting figs go at good prices. I do however have a problem with collectors buy 3+. We all see the various problems that plague our hobby, specificaly with distribution. If you're buy multiples just to have, then that really is a horrible thing to do when everything isn't available to everyone. It's not like there's a surplus. But anyway....with the onslaught of this year, how are y'all now displaying? Groups? Eras? How much rearranging has been done? I mean even a MK shelf would be packed right now. By the end of the year, people will have a slew of BP related figs...

I gave up on their out-of-wack scale. It does become a turn off, but now I just deal and only grab those I really want. These days, their selected bucks are more of a annoyance for me. But as for the reveals: Forge looks good. I hope that he comes with extra gadgets. For Jubilee, I don't need 2, but I will pick up that bubblegum head. If Caliban is the BAF, that's a pass, for now. Actually, I don't think there are enough new sculpts to justify a BAF. But If they drop more Horsemen, or Morlock, then maybe down the line. Black Order - Ebony MAw looks terrific. Corvius looks good too. I may pick up Maw. Hydra Cap & Armin Zola - pass. Next Spidey & Kraven - I don't have any black-suit Spidey, and I never likd the previous Kraven. I'll definitely grab. Night Thrasher was a huge surprise. There's only one New Warrior that I want, and she's also an Avenger & X-Man. But this is tempting as one of their most underutilized characters. I was going to pass on Prof X, but now I'm sold. Overall, it was a bit underwhelming for MLs. Jubilee may have been the star reveal.
