Got a couple as well. Had very bad luck with Hulk preorders that sold out within seconds so my “panic” felt justified when I missed the first round. Thanks for the heads up

Love many of the reveals. Armored Daredevil: last major costume I’ll need. Was waiting for this one best reveal for me. Green Goblin: don’t care for this guy but need that Norman head for Iron Patriot Gwen: extras heads , always good for customs the potential Sentinel is intriguing.. that sucker will be huge. This will be the U. S.s Flagg of this generation. Moon knight is awesome. I’d like some day to have his west coast avengers look, with gold gauntlets and kick pads , gold belt and gold Ankh on chest but me thinks that is a long shot the reset are wait and see.

WTF, now he is back to the unavailable at this time message.. haha, so maybe it IS a glitch.. I give up. It’s either a glitch or it’s sold out

Walgreens Moon Knight now officially says sold out online... guess it wasn’t a glitch Damn now hoping to catch the next wave

I saw this thread around 3:16 EST and went immediately and have been getting the unavailable pop up since. So it definitely went up early. Hoping it is just a glitch. I see their Iron Man 2020 is still available ( but that may speak more to the character choice). Fingers crossed

Man that went fast. Already sold out. Hopefully they run another pre-order, really want this guy but shudder to think of paying scalper prices. have had luck with every Walgreens exclusive except Mystique, fingers crossed I can get MK without dropping my budget on one character

I can see Hasbro adding a Supreme Intelligence as a 3-D face in the back of a box set. It could be molded into his grotesque face as part of the insert packaging similar to the Grabdmaster/ Collector set from SDCC last year. The entire back of the box could be removed and placed into our displays. May be the only feasible way to get Supreme Intelligence.. Not sure who the box set would have, obviously characters related to SI and the Kree..

I’m with you, Guardian never seemed to be metallic as I have interpreted him. Does this go in the same category as Storm and her is it black or white costume.? I remember seeing an issue where Guardian was battle damaged and it appeared to me his costume was cloth over some sort of mechanical mesh. But nothing on the Guardian figure is a negative for me. I don’t mind his red, that he is different color than Vindicator ( feel this was done on purpose, though I don’t know why) and kinda think his head sculpt is awesome. Granted I am not a big Guardian fan, maybe these things would bother me more if I were. i get it somewhat with the costume accuracy, I don’t love the (plastic) cloth part that hangs below the Black Knights belt, I get that it’s comic accurate but I loved his costume completely when he ditched that and the winged helmet. In fact, that part bugged me so bad I customized a second figure without it and this is my go to display BK. But colors, not such a big deal for me. It would be nice if we all got the figures we want in the ideal costumes / colors, but now more than ever it is more possible that we can get more than one version.

Truth

Fed Ex tracking is worthless. Says my package is still half an hour away but in truth it had been delivered about an hour ago. Oh well, the Stan’s are fantastic

Hmm, my Stans are also supposed to be delivered today but tracking shows them in a town half an hour from me. Plus a Fed Ex truck was in front of my house for a few minutes this morning but eventually drove off without the driver ever leaving his truck. My guess is my package was left off the truck and he didn’t realize it until he went to drop it on my porch. Just spitballing here, no idea what that Fed Ex guy was doing, but I’ve never seen a Fed Ex or UPS truck twice in the same day on my road... does say by end of day so will update if anything changes

DC Direct has an artist line and they look ok, it really is easy to tell the difference between artists. But these lines by nature are limited to the characters that the artist have drawn. Any many times, the same characters are represented by different artists. An odd choice by the company to release 2 or 3 Aquaman, Superman etc with the only difference being artistic style. plus an Ed McGuiness Superman does not look right on the shelf next to Jim Lee Batman. This goes to my earlier point of the artists version making for a too diverse style, making the collection visually unappealing..

Pass for me in artist inspired Legends. Aside from an inspired head from certain artists I want my Legends to have the same feel, as in artist neutral. Before legends, ToyBiz released so many different scales, appearances etc. depending on the line my collection looked like a hodgepodge of different toy lines... no thanks.

Totally different experience for me with Pulse this time. Ordered 2 Stan’s and a day later got a shipping notice..fastest by far this has ever gone for me. had Stan preordered from BBTS and Target as well but since Pulse came through I’ve canceled from the others.. well tried , Target says something about can’t cancel if it’s processing shipping but it’s clearly not that far along. Oh well, will return if I can’t cancel..

I was pretty happy he is only $30, don’t care about the packaging, felt that the Venom and Archangel wereover-priced, even if they were $30 at release..of course this is just my opinion feels like they could get $35-40 for Kingpin ( this guy is heavy, large figure)..don’t feel like Hasbro is taking us on this one
