I guess for me, I would rather try looking for the IW wave in stores, then ordering online because I want to see what the Iron Spider looks like in hand, because the pics make it look like a repaint of HC :dunno
 
That's a whole lot of testosterone on those shelves Jye! :rock

I got my Wonder Man figure in yesterday, So much better than the first but at least the first one included his Skycycle. Why the MCU has yet to introduce cool looking Avengers Skycycles yet amazes me. We got Quinjets, and they showed the Chitauri riding them, seems like a no-brainer to introduce them for Avengers that can't fly.

I also found the 12" Spider-Man figure on Amazon for $26 and couldn't pass it up!

It's all about the hunt and the joy of finding something you've been looking for. Something I miss when it comes to getting things online, but at least I can get a good discount that way (Wonder Man was only $10).

True, but sometimes I wonder if it’s worth the time and gas that I spend when I go hunt these down from store to store coming up empty handed some days because my local big brands always seem to be far behind after the holiday X-mas season :slap

The worst is when these become eventual peg warmers which I now see with the BP wave which I’m shocked considering the positive reviews the film is getting :dunno

Factoring in gas is something I'm always trying to do, usually I just make a stop off if I'm already going somewhere so the cost of gas is negligible in the cost of getting a figure or two.

On the BP wave, I only saw T'challa on the pegs at the beginning, now he's gone from stores (I'm looking for one myself). All the others I find but are in small numbers especially the Invincible Iron Man so I think they're selling pretty well here. I personally have a hard time finding something I'm looking for during the holiday season.

Really I see all the BP series just sitting there on pegs in all my stores in my area along with the ML vintage wave minus Wolvie from time to time . But at the same time my Walmart’s haven’t even got the caped BP let alone the purple version. Hell, I have yet to see 12” Wolverine anywhere, including GS :thud:

I saw the WM Excl. caped BP on discount just after Christmas and the WM Excl. pink colored BP several weeks ago at one store, wish I picked either of them up as they're now long gone from the three WM I checked recently. I didn't even know the pink BP was an exclusive at the time.

I think for the non comic educated fans, I think the Pink BP is going to be a hot item not only because it’s exclusive, but because people who don’t follow the BP comics saw what the figures in tells in the movie . So yes you should’ve grabbed the pink version when you saw it as well as the caped exclusive because they might be even more popular . Or you can try your LCS to see if they have them still for around retail.

I'd buy the pink BP just because I prefer that head sculpt with the ears pinned back above any other version and the WM caped BP is the best comic version yet, but I also own the old TB BP so I own a comic BP with cape and that'll suffice if I never find that excl. WM BP for retail price.
 
man It seems ive missed out on select gladiator hulk, never saw one and all the stores are telling me he’s sold out & they cant re-order.

Might have to bite the bullet and pay ebay prices dammit.
 
I grabbed these from the Shartimus Prime review video, MS Gladiator Hulk on the left, ML Gladiator Hulk or ML Gladiator Thor on the right. The MS scales better to Thor imo:

How much is this at Gamestop?

I was planning on getting this online, but hearing that the paint can be amiss I might want to try and find a good one in person.

I was shocked that it was $23.00!

That BAF helmet fit on his head is horrible and he’s way too small.

MS definite winner on both fronts.

Thor’s arena design for TR is atrocious.
