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!

Traveling for work and found half a dozen Vision & Scarlet Witch packs at the TRU in Sawgrass Mills FL. They'll probably get clearanced out at EE & BBTS eventually but for 10% off I figured I'd get one to keep in box as the last ML with a TRU exclusive sticker :-(

...and just got an email from BBTS that they have Vision & Scarlet Witch up for preorder as well (but $44.99 there vs $39.99 at EE)

#MeToo Pre-ordered a pair of the Iron Man / Pepper / Mandarin sets during the BOGO 50% sale last month thinking I could break the second pack up for people who just wanted one and got my cancellation email earlier this evening.

We live in two very different neighborhoods...

Finally found a single Mr Fantastic in a Duane Reade on the upper west side of Manhattan. Now I can stop getting weird looks from the staff at the 3 stores near me that I've been hitting up every other day and walking out with nothing for the last month.

NYC Times Square TRU had the leftovers of the Infinity War wave when I passed by tonight. Iron Man-a-plenty, a few Songbirds, Proxima Midnights, and King Cobras, along with a bunch of Ghost Rider and Black Widow riders. They also look like they're receiving the Vulture wave again and had several Moon Knights (which I've seen online recently for retail as well) along with the rest of that wave. Still no luck finding Mr Fantastic by me :-(

D'oh! I was so tired this morning I didn't even realize Lasher was missing. And to add insult to injury I passed on Lasher and Prowler a few days ago at Walgreens because I wanted to buy them all in one shot. Also stopped in the NYC Times Square TRU this evening and saw a dozen red Deadpools and a few Paladins along with A TON of the BiB Deadpools. All the Black Panther figs finally sold out although they still have a bunch of the Shuri/Klaw sets.

Lizard Spidey wave now up at TRU.com, and I got the BOGO 50% deal even though (I thought) it was supposed to end yesterday: https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=122598136 https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=122598236 https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=122598176 https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=122598086 https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=122598266 https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=122598106

Can't comment on accuracy - only saw them elsewhere and figured I'd share. The same site has the assortment DCPI listed as 087-06-5770 if that's more helpful. Don't know how it compares to the X-Men waves, but when I Google it the only thing that comes up is Deadpool.

From another site: Deadpool UPC: 630509621040 / SKU: 434595966 / DPCI: 087-06-6965 Domino UPC: 630509621057 / SKU: 161600018 / DPCI: 087-06-6966 Cable UPC: 630509621064 / SKU: 795720934 / DPCI: 087-06-6967 Paladin UPC: 630509621071 / SKU: 385548841 / DPCI: 087-06-6968 Deathlok UPC: 630509621088 / SKU: 308811245 / DPCI: 087-06-7836 X-23 (X-Force) UPC: 630509621095 / SKU: 754571968 / DPCI: 087-06-7852 Deadpool (X-Force) UPC: 630509621101 / SKU: 944695362 / DPCI: 087-06-7853

Most of the Deadpool wave is up at TRU.com and eligible for the BOGO 50% promotion. As of 8:00 AM EST only X-Force Deadpool is sold out, and Cable doesn't appear to be listed on the site at all.

MCU10 Cap and Crossbones and Iron Man Mark VII are already up for preorder at HTS, EE, and BBTS with August ship dates, and Ronan is up for preorder at EE and BBTS as well.

If anyone initially passed on the Target Thor/Valkyrie 2-pack hoping it would go on clearance (me!), the price has dropped to $20.99 on the website: https://www.target.com/p/marvel-legends-thor-ragnarok-thor-marvel-s-valkyrie-2pk/-/A-52123150

Just some Friday afternoon humor to share... Pictures of the Inifinty War figures have been making the rounds on some of the movie spoiler sites, and someone who obviously has a lot more of his disposable income thanks to not knowing what ML figures or the BAF gimmick are posted the following after seeing the pics of the Captain America box: "So Cap either decapitates Thanos, Thanos is actually Cap, or theres a Mission Impossible scene where Cap has a face mask of Thanos." 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Traveling for work this week and stopped into the local Target. Was surprised to see a single Cyclops hanging on the pegs until I took a second look... I brought it up to customer service, but should I have bought it instead?

Picked up Klaw & Shuri at the Times Square TRU today. Had half a dozen of them on the shelf in the late afternoon and plenty of the main line BP wave hanging on pegs (passed on those though - not super interested in any of them except Black Bolt so I'll wait for a good sale to pick up the wave).

If anyone was still Holding out on the Amazon Sinister Six box set, it's an Amazon deal of the day today for $14.99! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N3YPW5G

Black Panther wave is also up for pre-order at Amazon with a release date of January 1

Well over a dozen Hydra 2-packs at the Times Square TRU this morning if anyone still needs them

Jessica Jones begs to differ... "Kilgrave? Was Murdercorpse already taken?" As far as the wave is concerned I agree with the general sentiment of 'meh'. I never read the Black Panther comics but I would think there must be someone who has visited Wakanda who would qualify as a real BAF - not someone who could easily have been the 7th retail figure in the wave.
