BBTS has been sending Miles as the variant.
And generally, BBTS is excellent. I've used them many times now. No complaints from me.
Inhumans and Uncanny X-Men should be out within the next few weeks I imagine. I have them saved in an ebay search currently so we'll see.

Right. Here's a photo to give you guys an idea:
So as you can see, the head is perfectly in proportion with the Destro body. So the head shape is fine.
It's the size of the neck hole that's not fitting on the body's neck post:
It's a bit blurry (stupid iphone) but you should see the top of the neck post that the head is sitting on. It can't actually pop onto the neck post because the hole is too narrow.

Out of curiosity, was it in the normal toy section or the check out area. I found Laufey at the check out but there were no Thor figures elsewhere. No sign of Thor wave 4 at all though.

Well, since it's a head I made, I'll answer this. I assume you mean the neck hole is too small and not the actual head. When I made the head, I did not have the Xavier or Desto body to use as a base. The solutions are simple. You can first try heating the head then putting it on the body or you can get a dremel with the round metal bit and just waddle it out a tad bit. If you need any other help, PM me please.
Sorry for not clarifying. The head size is perfect. It's the neck hole yes. And it is slight. I'll probably try heating it first and then more on to dremel if that fails. Thanks!

I learned from the Psylocke wave and the other packs that Kokomo generally gets more in stock rather quickly after the fist initial batch and they generally offer it for less the second time. Otherwise I'll take my chances at retail for FF Spidey. Something tells me I won't have a hard time finding a Spider-Man figure.

Question for the experts: I received Onyx's Coulson head in the mail but ironically while all other heads were too big, this one is too small to fit on the Destro/Xavier body. What's the best way to rectify this? Should I try shaving the neck peg down or try to widen the hole in the head?

Avengers quinjet was on sale at TRU for $24.99 instead of the usual 31.99. So I picked it up since neither Walmart nor Target have lowered their prices.
Also got Doom/Spidey. Left Spidey/Rhino. Hopefully they'll get the X-Men sets in next truck day.

Bagman is the variant for the FF Spider-Man. He's supposed to be in Wave 19, but it seems that all the early cases have the variants first (see Miles Morales in all the Wave 18 cases) and then the regular version will ship later.
I got my wave 18 case from Entertainment Earth 2 weeks ago and got 2 x red and blue Ultimate Spider-Man.
Don't suppose you'd want to trade one for a Miles variant?

How did you manage to get the clear Sue version of the F4 set? Phone call? Email them? Pure luck? Please tell me/us...
I bought the Heroic age case. So I have a second Heroic Age 3 pack if anyone is looking to buy/trade for it. Clear Sue was shipping in that case and since I didn't have Classic Avengers, I decided to take a chance and was very pleased to see Clear Sue.

3 TJ Maxx stores and a Marshalls:
No Sentinels. I'm convinced they just haven't hit here yet.
$2 AOTC Senate guard so that was nice. Found the Marching Band Conductor variant of Red Skull. Also found another Hydra trooper there.
Far Wal*Mart had the Studio Series but only Cap and Iron Man were left. I grabbed Cap.
Found the Rocket Grenade Cap (masked version) at Stop and Shop.

No luck on finding the sentinel at the two TJ Maxx stores I tried this morning. I did snag another Hydra trooper and a Air Drone though.
May try to hit Marshalls tomorrow.
I didn't think those places were open today...
The were closing at 8 pm for the holiday but yeah, most stores were open.

Ever wondered whether if bagman has a real face or not underneath that paper bag mask?
Ever had any guesses whose head they put on that body?
You asked and you shall recieve!
Presenting the Amazing Bagman!
Here's a quick photoshop using the eyebrows for color reference:
Thanks for sharing that. How did you remove the bag? Boil the head? Definitely gonna get a few of these if I can find 'em!

Hi guys, just a quick tip for those like me who were unhappy with Psylockes' head. Try use Ajarel from Star wars. Its perfect!! I use it on mine and she looks like a proper Psylocke now.
Whose head is that? I did a search for that name and found nothing to match.
Jarael
She's from a Knights of the Old Republic Two pack exclusive to Entertainment Earth.

As I have Gambit and Cyclops, I'm curious how Colossus' accessory fits in with the Danger Room bases. Does anyone have any shots of this?

Not sure if this news or not, but I did see "new" Star Wars: The Clone Wars figures earlier today. I'm assuming they're new because they had Darth Maul on the packaging, but the figures themselves seemed like re-releases as there was the same Savage Opress and Anakin Skywalkers figures that I recognized from before.
these?
picked em up a few days ago
NO. Those are "Movie Legends." See lower right hand corner. You SW n00bs - jk :)
Those look like the figures from the AOTC line. Does that Darth Maul have a wheel on his back to spin his lightsaber hand? Haven't been into SW figures for a while.
Didn't open it but it does say Spinning Lightsaber action on the front so I think so.
I'm a yoda collector primarily. Not sure where the other ones we're packed in before but I'm sure I don't have them. I really don't remember having a yoda with alternate hands or a darth maul like thatThat Yoda was in the Revenge of the Sith collection and has been repacked quite a bit since then.
Darth Maul is this figure: http://www.rebelscum.com/tsc053maul.asp without the red highlights.
Cool, as much stuff as I see in the stores I don't remember that line but would have picked up that Yoda if I saw it. Looks like I may still need one then...
edit: OK so I probably do have it. I checked and I have these:
and this one which I like to call "Michael Jackson Yoda"
did they come with interchangeable hands? I never looked/saw them in the package. Then again I don't really care or look to hard, I just buy them regardless :p
It's Michael Jackson Yoda. They just changed the 'crotch grab' hand's positioning in the package so it looks more appropriate.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM cant wait for those new 2pks lol Mine arrived in san fran earlier this morning.Which leads me to my next question.........Does UPS ever deliver stuff early?My tracking says 2 buisness days left but they're only an hour away lol
In my experience, no. I really dislike UPS because of bad experiences with damaged items and also the ship time. I get frustrated when I know they could deliver sooner because I tracked it to the nearest facility and then I gotta wait another 2-3 days. I guess they don't realize customers are happy when they get something sooner than when you quoted them. I prefer USPS because they handle boxes better and will deliver ASAP. I also think Fedex is better than UPS.
BBTS uses them. I always put in a request with BBTS once shipped to have them hold it for pickup at my nearest UPS facility which is 15 minutes away. So, once it ends up there (normally 2 days before estimated delivery) I can run over and pick it up. I also do this because despite having a GPS and my full address on the package, UPS manages to deliver to the wrong place 1 out of every 4 times I use them.
I learned about the pickup facility the night they failed to deliver my medication on a Friday night and I raised holy hell with their customer service until they took the package off the truck and had it ready for pickup despite technically being closed. Then they had the gall to tell me to put my address a certain way so I pointed out the correctly labeled address on the box and they shut up real fast. UPS is so not my favorite place. USPS is by far the best.

Awesome. Hopefully that means Inhumans and Uncanny X-Men aren't far behind!
