  1. HAHA! I was just testing her out with those things but she does look like a cheerleader! HAHA! Hope all of you that plan to attempt the custom post pics! It was super easy. I just want a belt for her now. :/

    I'm snowed in today, but I will run to Target tomorrow. A great deal of badly painted Jubilee figures were hanging around last I saw. If I find her, I'll let you know.

  2. Got my order from Amok Time in:

    Quick Impressions: The repaints for Skull and Widow with new heads are the best of the bunch. Hulk looks BIG next to the other figures as he should but the lack of wrist articulation hurts the overall quality. The Cap repaint is solid except for the head. I have always hated the head sculpt. Falcon is excellent except for two flaws: He's painted too bright and he has no wrist articulation. Iron Man is the most disappointing of the 6: Painted too bright, no wrist and no ankle articulation.

     

    Additionally, all of the figures (Except Hulk) have stupid gimmick weapons which are pretty much all repacks but do not come with normal weapons. No shield for Cap. No guns for Widow or Skull. Rather disappointing for the price. Still, definitely plan to get the repaint of Hawkeye, Leader and maybe Fury.

  3. um, what was there to report? I mean, saying everybody was "tripping" was out of line but nothing to report. It wasn't all THAT bad.

    Or did I incite a worse tirade that got deleted before I saw it? If that's the case, I apologize for escalating things. I was intending to let him know that it wasn't polite, but perhaps I was too strong and just made it worse. Oh well.

    Let's be careful not to scare off the newbs, even if they sometimes come across as know-it-all or something. It'd be nice to expand the customer base and possibly see even more new stuff because it's profitable to Hasbro. If we make people quit then it'll be harder to get Hasbro to make Masterworks and other crap we expect.

     

    Besides, it's just good to be nice.

     

    I saw it. I didn't have my password else I'd have logged in to report it. It was definitely report worthy. :P

     

    Anyway, nothing but wave 19 over here. Target even got it if the left over Falcon is any indication. No sign of the Strange/Surfer packs though.

     

  4. I expect the prices on these guys to start to drop dramatically after Christmas. It looks like this wave will hit in decent numbers. And given it is hitting right around the holidays, stores should get it in bulk. And since the new figures are 2 per case, shouldn't be too hard to find any of them.

     

    Thats wishful thinking man, Retail stores still do not order a lot of MU, they order more of the movie crap, I guarantee nothing is going to change, it hasnt before and its not going to now,

     

    It's experience actually. The stores always ramp up orders over the holidays and yes, that includes Marvel Universe as well. Last year, we were flooded with the last wave that hit stores (Magneto repaint wave) and Wave 17 leaked out to the West Coast. Wave 19 has been hitting strong and I've seen its remnants at a few stores. So we'll see if wave 21 has the same impact. Given the case makeup, it's a strong contender to hit in bulk.
