I'm hoping they make X-23 from Deadpool & Wolverine. I'd also love a Logan, the one from D & W was half good, but, they went with pinned legs!

The Manipple arm upgrade for Wolverine is now shipping from Ali Express, though they are still a PO from Kit. I don't think it'll be too much longer before they ship from there though. Here is a review:



They look perfect to me and I'm so glad I ordered mine.

My Deadpool and Wolverine arrived earlier, and I'm blown away. I almost can't believe that this is the same company that makes all the Black Series I've been getting lately. People have been raving about the new Leia, I'm not one of them! I wanted to look at her and see the late Carrie Fisher staring back at me, but I just couldn't. However, the same can't be said of the unmasked Logan head that you get with Wolverine. Hugh Jackman was glaring back at me so hard I almost apologised! The talent is there, so why can't they use it to its fullest!?

I saw a number of those in stores when the flick was out, they looked pretty good.

They are really good, but, neither is perfect.

this I want

Just as it is in the comics, my son's X-Mansion isn’t spared from the tradition of monthly (weekly) destruction.

Just got the little JD bottle in hand, and it is perfect!!

Wow at $49.99 that Maximum Series Spidey sold out at HasbroPulse and EE already

I got my preorders in early though

I wonder if this was the scalpers

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Sold out already, eh? I'm glad I got my PO in early.

Well looks like EE is ping ponging back and forth on sold out and returning to pre order but BBTS still has the pre order up…which makes sense since collectors know that BBTS is always the last to receive ML

The price is just unacceptable. As nice as Maximum is, I'd rather save up another $50 and buy the Mafex version or, buy the knock off Mafex Spider Man for $20. Hasbro is just not capable of making figures worthy of high end 1/12 figure prices.

All the whining and bitching. and Spidey is sold out at BBTS, EE as well now

While I'm not crazy about the price, however, I like what I see and I want this figure.

I really don't want to pay/nor believe the Maximum Spidey is worth $50, but I PO'd one anyway on Amazon. No reason this should be priced above $40 max.

Even with the ridiculous price I was pretty sure he'd sell out. It's regular Spider-Man. Every version pretty much sells out. Although being sold out on this is probably BS. Hasbro is price gouging fans to cover all the costs of the tooling on the new body so all future uses are just gravy. And testing the waters for what the market will bear. I'm sure he'll be in stock again when he starts to ship. Good way to create demand and have fans overlook the price. The next figure, Maximum Hulk, will probably be like $70 - $80 now.

Hopefully reviews pop up before Amazon ships it so if I change my mind I can cancel it. I'd rather have one ordered and cancel then decide I do want it and have to keep checking constantly everywhere to find one.

The $50 price tag will only work for certain characters and I think they’re going to quickly see $50 versions of some of the other maximum figures they likely have planned aren’t going to do nearly as well.

I agree; I think the price is a little too high, a fairer range in my opinion would be around $30-$40. Nevertheless I'm really excited for it and those McFarlane-esque heads are looking good!

I'll admit to being tempted at a Brown & Tan Wolverine or a Daredevil. But I have a $20 CT Mafex knock off B&T Wolverine and I couldn't recommend it more, fantastic lil' Wolvie. Hard to beat at that price. I hope CT will make Daredevil next.

The Maximum Spidey isn't flawless, the always present Marvel Legends™ "eyes aren't close enough together" (in this case for an accurate McFarlane Spidey mask), "giant thigh gap" and "low slumped shoulders" are clear faults. It may be nitpicking but at $50, they're valid points.

Much agreed, at $50 I think it should be held to a higher standard. The MAFEX Comic Spider-Man is my most favorite comic Spidey figure ever, and I'm curious to see how it compares. I suspect the MAFEX will come out on top, but we'll see when the Maximum Series comes out. Still, plenty excited for it and it'll be another great addition to the Spidey collection!
