They are very nice. The IMm3 can almost double as a comic accurate Extremis Armor. Although I'm thinking the wrist joints are breaks waiting to happen...

marveloustoys has a gallery:

http://i.marvelousnews.com/g/index.php? ... 00&start=0

i'm kinda pissed that they're reissuing the iron spidey already, and with better paint apps it appears. but i got mine already, so whatever.

in other hasbro marvel figures news, i got iron man mark 01 and mark 03 today - saw them all, but those were the ones i picked up. they're freakin' cool. and my daughter already likes them, too. she was holding them each in one hand and moving them up quickly in the air going "peeeee-yew" (that was her version of flying sounds.)

I was at Target today and saw the exclusive Marvel Legends Hulk. Have they really gone this far into the line without making a Hulk figure?

The rest of the Hulk line looks like it consists of 3 different Hulks and one Abomination. Well, and the Hulk on a quad and Hulk gloves 2.0.

It also seems Iron man figures are just about gone.

They had Planet Hulk not too long ago and IIRC a first appearance Hulk back when the line was good.

I got the Ronin/Elektra two pack and the Ultimate Cap/Nick Fury two packs last weekend. I had to pay slightly above retail at a second hand store. But that's when happens when Hasbro pisses away a license. The last few figures become impossible to find. I had no trouble finding the Reed/Thing two pack, but thats because it was a repaint of a repaint of a repaint...

I cringe at the thought of trying to track down those SHIELD/Hand Ninja army builder two packs.

And the real kick in the balls is that the figures were actually starting to turn out nice. Ronin is one of the coolest figures Hasbro has put out. It's like Hasbro deliberately made the last hard to find waves super nice as if to say "Fuck you Legends fans! We are Hasbro We hate you all!!!!"

Stopped by Target this morning, and lucked into the Target Exclusive Red Hulk wave. I was so excited to get up to the register with them, I didn't bother to check the price. Six figures cost me $97. $14.99 a figure! What the fuck?!? Fuck you Hasbro. And fuck you Target. Greedy fucks.




And fuck Hasbro again. Never has a company in the history of the world made it so difficult for people to enjoy their product.


Oh. And fuck Hasbro.

TRIPLE POST. Grimlock shits in his own mouth and eats it.


I got the Wal-Mart Wave

Crossbones
Ultimate War Machine (repaint of Ult Iron Man)
Human Torch (repaint of the FF figure from last year)
Human Torch variant
Vision
Kang (rerelease of the FF figure from 2004)
Scarlet Spider
Guardian (Alpha Flight!!)
Heroes Reborn Iron Man

Ares BAF


Crossbones is the fucking shizz, even if it is Hulkling's body with a new head. It's one of the best re-uses I have seen.

I'm glad we got Guardian, even if the pale blue 'tinting' in his costume was overdone a bit.

Already had Kang. Already had Vison (this is a new sculpt though). Already have some Human Torches.

I skipped Ultimate Iron Man from the first HML wave because I already had the infinitely cooler Marvel Select figure, so a repaint of "War Machine" is meh in my book, but its an okay figure.

Heroes Reborn Iron Man is pretty sweet.

scarlet spider??? SCARLET SPIDER?????? how did i not know about this??? i must be SLIPPING in my old age...

i'm going to have to get that one... i see a wal-mart exclusive "spider-ben", the variation on the red and blue w/webbing that he wore when he took over as spider-man, is that what they're calling the scarlet spider? or is that a variant with an actual scarlet spider? in which case, i'm going to have to get both.

EDIT: upon further inspection, the entire wave is a walmart exclusive and that's the only version. they should do the same one with an actual scarlet spider repaint.

For a sec I thought Hulk's little green friend was sticking out the front of his shorts.
