Randomly checked the HTS website just now and noticed all of the ML figures (at least the ones I checked) now read "Item is excluded from any promotions". And for anyone who also collects SW, the exclusion policy has also appeared there, but it seems more targeted to the items people actually want (TBS 4-LOM, TVC Hoth Trooper), and not the pegwarming stuff (everything Force Link, TBS everything Solo / TLJ, TVC non-Hoth Trooper)

The latest three MCU10 sets are now up and in stock on HTS with code "AMERICA" to save 10% on $75, 15% on $100, or 20% on $150. As none of these are exclusives, personally I'm going to roll the dice and hope they eventually come down to the $19.99/each price point before buying.

Hasbro is getting more money from me with the increase in volume but on average I'm paying less per figure. Similar to others I'm cherry picking the ones I really want or that I think will be HTF and then waiting for sales to finish the rest. I still haven't bought either Ghost Rider or Black Widow on their bikes because I'm paying to keep up with the main line (and have no space). I'd be much happier with 6 waves per year with some exclusives sprinkled in. (On the other hand it's KILLING me to wait 2+ years to finish my Fantastic Four!)

The only one I was really looking forward to in this wave was Doc Ock, but after getting them out of package he seems a bit bland whereas I'm really liking the way the rest of them look!

It's not listed on their site but code NOWNLATER is working for 18% off today only. Ordered my Ant-Man, Wasp, and Malekeith this morning, as well as the ones I was holding off on from the Thanos and BP waves. With X-Men shipping on 7/11 I'm all caught up now until the Venom wave drops :-)

Cull Obsidian wave is now up at HTS. I *think* HTS is supposed to be doing an 18% off sale this Thursday 6/28, and Ant-Man, Wasp, and Malekeith have all been regularly in stock at Amazon for $19.99, so if you still need those and you're looking to save a buck or two, you might want to wait until Thursday to see if they're still in stock at HTS. I wouldn't wait on Black Knight, Thor, and Black Widow though.

Sp//dr wave is up and in stock on HTS now. Cull Obsidian wave is also up but listed as Coming Soon. Daredevil: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1348as00 Scarlet Spider: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1350as00 Electra: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1351as00 Doc Ock: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1352as00 Cloak: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1354as00 Dagger: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1353as00 House of M Spidey: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1355as00

I have to say I'm impressed with the Spidey wave case ratio choice this time. It's usually a given that whatever version of Spider-Man is in the case will get double packed but this time they made the smart choice of double packing Doc Ock instead. Hopefully folks will have an easier time finding him than they did with Mysterio.

Son of a... The one Monday when I *don't* work from home!!!!!!! Glad others here got them though.

I want every one of these to recreate my childhood

Lol... my sides!

EE comes through with more TRU goodies as they are now taking pre-orders for the Hydra Soldiers 2-pack if anyone still needs them! https://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HSC3993

Wow. That sculpt of Paul Rudd is... something. It's actually how I picture the look on the face of many folks here when they see a wave with another MCU Cap and Iron Man

I have yet to pick up either the Black Panther wave or the Avengers wave because I'm considering getting out of ML again, but damn I want that Thing to complete my FF.

I really wasn't all that into this wave but you're right - something about that Magneto now has me excited about it!
