Thank you Hasbro for making 80th Cap a Walmart exclusive I appreciate how difficult you made it for me to finish off my 80th collection.

They literally must have monthly "how can we limit our profits as much as possible" meetings, lol.

lol that sounds about right!

Gosh it just makes no sense Khev.

Walmart must pay them a crap load of money up front for them to agree with a such a profit killing decision like that.

Interesting. My toy store still has Rogue in stock. Not much but I have been visiting the store almost once a week and the same number of Rogues still there.
i guess stock moves a bit slower in Vancouver. Marvel Legends are the higher demand items.

I've just nearly finished my X-Men Legends collection. I am only missing Rogue. If you happen across one again, please consider helping a freak out.

Been having pretty bad luck with QC issues on Nightcrawler. Went through 2 with paint scuffs and the other with some glue residue both on the chest piece. Ended up just repainting whole chest piece. Never really encountered this many QC issues like I have these past couple months. Heard it?s cause hasbro it rushing out of the factories in China and trying to get everything out ASAP.

That's because they're trying to beat the upcoming tariff increase.
Prices will go up on anything coming out of China, whether it's Marvel Legends or Hot Toys.

Cleaned off the excess red overspray on the right arm, I'm much happier with mine now:



This is the Alex Ross head, the better of the two:


This is the Comic head, with some bad wondering eyes;


And my pick for taking over MCU Captain America:


I'll still be on the look out for another 80th Cap with better paint. just to replace the heads.

And Hela looks great too, all three of her:






One thing I should mention, I had to repaint the pupils on the left eye of Skurge, on the left eye of Hela with her hair in front of her face, and on both eyes with the hair away from her face. The pupils were there but needed a little oomph.

QC issues have definitely been on the rise. The two Nightcrawlers that I have seen in person had huge paint runs on the chest and others like FFH Spidey, Ronin, Ebony Maw have all had defects in the paintwork, glue marks, and bad joints.

I understand these are $20 toys, but it can be very disheartening to find the one figure you've been after only to see that it has sloppy paint apps.

Posted by someone in Mexico who ordered and received him.

Grey Hulk looks fantastic! Must get Grey HULK!
I think I like that version the most out of the newest ML Hulks.

Just so you guys know, this figure is supposedly eventually going to be available elsewhere. It's already in Target's system with its own dedicated DPCI. There's hope.

Marvel Legends, it's from the Marvel Studios First 10 Years Civil War two pack with Crossbones.
You can still find it out there for way below retail.

From what I heard Target took that listing down and told people it was not going to be available.
According to Rektangular (who has some of the best insider info), Target will be getting the 80th Cap in October. Go to the 6:20 mark in this video for that info:

So my order for 80th Cap has dissapeared from Walmart's website. I've been checking every day since it was changed to delayed as some people have still been receiving them. So I check this morning and it says I have no orders over the last 6 months...

**** Off Walmart...

I read on another forum that supposedly Target and other retailers will have Cap come October. I guess that's why it showed up in Target's database and some people successfully got him on Amazon. I'll be patient and wait as I don't feel like paying $40+ on Ebay.

New 80th Iron Man.
