Passing on this one-- clever that they're marketing it so you have to buy 3 of the same figure to essentially use all the heads at once...

Not really a want for me...I hope passing on it now isn't gunna bite me back later on if I decide I do want her later on and it'll be tougher to find in the wild and/or scalper prices 😅

Why y'all gotta dude my dude Blanka like that?! 😂
Is he a portable charger or is he stationary? 😂0 -
I respect that they are covering all bases with all characters within the Marvel realm which is great, I hope they do more MCU characters, revisiting the old films from phase one till 3, Obadiah Stane and Iron Monger would be great, redo the Iron Man armors 1-6 to be more Legends size, and the first War Machine would be dope!

I wonder if they'll release a taller Tony Stark in the wave, given it's apparently just a cameo, but man, what I'd give for an in-scale RDJ figure, or even more Iron Man for the Hall of Armors that's still a work in progress...haha
I feel like there's a catch, I haven't been reading too much into her movie and what it entails and all the fan theories, but to make this one film and then probably be done, is it really just in it for the money?! Like I'm pretty sure it's gunna be dope, a great cast for sure, but is Black Widow really done? I wonder what door(s) this'll lead to!0 -
Got gifted the SHF Iron Spider, and mildly disappointed because I knew how aesthetically better Mafex was...but this 2.0 is a vast improvement, still will have to wait on Mafex's rendition, but a great figure from SHF for sure!

Already following this guy on IG so... 👌As much as I want these shrunken heads (maniple, etc) when posed with exposed skin tones from other figures, it always seems off collectively, still a quality Stark moment. 😭

Very minimal, but in the best way possible! Not sure if it's taken from a comic, or some other form of media, or maybe just personal preference, nice props/diorama

Never to particular to busts and statues, even though I leave my action figures in stagnant poses for months on end, a nice Wolvie though I must say.

Seems to be a good height for Thor amongst the MLs MCU collection, I'll have to wait on Hasbro's rendition before making any moves though...Possibly Mafex too?!

Forgot to illuminate the time stone! A slight glow would've rounded the editing off, the electrical surge on the forearm is CLEAN, very nice! Tony Stark FOREVER.

Kind of wished MK 50 came with more since it's the third time it's been repurposed, an updated Tony head would've been great since they did it for Peter, or even more nano accessories...might end up going to SH Figures.
I think people forget how almost skin-like nano tech is for MK 50 & 85 that I think SHF's scale fits okay with MLs and the ML MK 50 is a bit too bulky and maybe a hair too tall, plus SHF is plentiful in nano tech accessories..
But these 2packs are for the most part stupendous!

I think the con exclusives Grandmaster and The Collector for this year's SDCC is because of the fact that Hasbro is trying to get the most bang for the buck in terms of R&D for creating a unique mold that might not be able to be modified to produce another figure because they probably aren't the going to be the most sought after figures to covet

In Homecoming, I really didn't think Iron Man was needed, a mild attempt of a father-son bond to create a deeper sense of loss for the upcoming films as needed...but now that I miss Iron Man, can he take up at least 30% of the movie?! Not asking for much. Definitely not much hope for what remains of the MCU now that the OG Avengers are pretty much depleted, Far From Home better have a saving-grace credit scene to maintain the fandom.

Really just the Storm please... only working on my 90's/Jim Lee X-people, still haven't gotta most of the previous ones! Pretty clean wave though...

Can we Fan poll some MCU War Machines are missing, and the rest of the Iron Legion HoA and Drones that, probably a much more anticipated figure than this Wolverine?! Or really anything else that would be more greatly appreciated than this?!

Slightly off topic, but is Hasbro going to make a cheaper quality of the HotToys Nano gauntlet?! I don't want the ML Hulk sized one...so disappointed in the R&D for doing a retool of the Infinity Gauntlet.
But might get this Select Hulk tho, seems chill.

Been wanting an actual reason...other than contributing to the overall cause of pummeling Avatar, to watch it again! Starting to miss dear old Tony Stank, need one last good whiff

Low-key, I feel like they're doing a survey of sorts. How much was the original MCU Hulk that was released for the Avengers 1 movie line...was pricing marked higher than the other figures in the wave? Is that a $35 MSRP with or without tax? Never been to a Con of this sheer magnitude so maybe the mark up is to combat inflation of S&H fees (trade relations with China). So possibly a hike in MSRP for Legends? Who knows...
Aren't Diamond Selects adjusting prices as well?
Being honest, the net weight of this retro Hulk figure is at least 2 average sized figures combined, I think its just the fact that were used to figures his size broken down for BAF waves, moreover, people are still gunna buy, demand is still there so supply does what it pleases, just boycott and make a petition list to maintain prices or move on...or secret stash a few and wait for mark down prices like a normal person haha

Yeah as far as sheer volume of the collection, for Iron Man, Comicave seems spot on, other than Hot Toys, I don't think any other license has done what they've done. But shelf space can be a deal breaker...haha
Were all Selects, the ones having articulation, 7in and under? Maybe its just me, but I could've sworn some towered over others in height.
I'm with you, I have retail shops, more on everyday products and not specified toy shops, within a few hours drive, but even when Toys R Us was still around, the selection, at least for me was always limited, be it I'd search for figures maybe twice a month back when I started collecting. I've fallen on having to order online which takes the fun out of adding to my collection. Thats why I've reduced my Legends collection to just MCU. Once I'm caught up with the Cinematic Universe, or close to it, I'll try displays and dioramas, enter contests online. Gotta up my game on accessories and props.

Actually, the cloth coat was the only thing I think ole' Remmy had going for him. Though I preferred the pleather version from the X-Legends boxed set.
I'm not all-in with ToyBiz, but sticking with the coat...no matter the pliability of the plastic on the new one, it just not as versatile as if it were an actual fabric. If you can finagle some wiring through the TB Gambit, dramatic poses a plenty. His stature wasn't ideal, but with many figures, unless they are vanilla posed like a police lineup, they work just fine. I mean I'll end up getting the Hasbro just to maintain uniformity, but...maybe it has some sentimental value being my second ML..I think. haha
My Pleather one started cracking. I think I'd want to customize it to get an actual fabric on the new one though.

Rounding out the Jim Lee/90s cartoon on the X-Men for me...but there's just something ToyBiz did with Gambit and Beast that I don't know if there's a clear winner between then and Hasbro now. Where that Ororo Munroe tho?! And Nightcrawler...

YES LORD!!! I mean much love to Kurt Vonner and his suit, but its a bit dated, and I would love this to round out the epic duo of my beloved 90s cartoon if only they released a modular amor one like ToyBiz did for him and Iron Man.

Aren't my cup of tea, but its nice Hasbro shelling out more obscure characters...at least to me anyways.

Pretty simple but speaks volumes; I think it would've been more dramatic if he had his weapon hand leaning onto the wall, as in a way to keep himself propped up and his I'd like to say I'd change his direction of the head to a downward position but maybe not...still a clean setup!
