I wish you guys would come around more, even if we did just talk random stuff.


I'm hoping to find the Mighty Muggs/Mini Muggs on ebay! I love that set.

 

[ThDWgeek]

That Giant Man packaging is one of the coolest looking packagings I've ever seen!

And the Thor mini mates look really cool too.

 

[venom892]

Beta Ray Bill looks Awesome.So does that half Parker/Spidey statue.Pure Ditko goodness.Art Asylum will also have an exclusive Marvel vs. Capcom set of minimates at the con.

 

[Vartha]

Wow what's up with FF? I knew Johnny died but I haven't kept up after that.

 

[BizarroAids]

They are now called the "Future Foundation."

 

[Vartha]

Wow ok, haven't know too much after Torch's death.

 

[BizarroAids]

I haven't really picked up any of the FF books lately. I have too much other stuff going on in the 8 titles I get.

Agreed. Very clever!

 

[spideyboy_1111]

also, it definitely appears that Marvel Legends: Modern Thor will be an exclusive... though Ive seen no pics. But ebay is full of sellers already placing bids on it.

 

[BizarroAids]

I would love to see a pic. I love the modern Thor Select, but the articulation for the Legend would be great! And I could pose him so much better.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

thor is never going to have that much articulation though... bulky guys never do. i just hope he looks great.

 

[BizarroAids]

Question. Which cape would you prefer on him? The kind that was on the Select Thor or the Thor Movie Select? Which is kind of like the cape Sentry has on his Legend.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

... i dont honestly care lol. i dont even know what select movie thor's looks like...

 

[BizarroAids]

Oh lol. Then just ignore that question lol.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

lol, i just want visual conformation... Comic con is less than a month away now... we should be getting it any day. I also wonder if it comes with a BAF piece.. if sooo, then yeah it's part of the new line.

also, if he's indeed at comic con... so will the News and pics of the rest of the line (with modern cap and ult hawkeye)

 

[BizarroAids]

They would be the biggest bunch of teases if they didn't show us something at Comic Con.

What do you want to be it's featured during G4's live coverage? Blair Herter usually does the toy section. We got a bunch of figure pics last year, I want to see the Bucky Cap and Ultimate Hawkeye!!

I wonder if they will show better pics of the upcoming Marvel Selects. They are exclusive to the Disney store, but at least they could give us better images than just the Hawkeye.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

eh, i don't really watch g4. i just look at pics online.

i honestly could care less about ultimate hawkeye.. im more interested to see who else is in that wave, and in future ones.

 

[BizarroAids]

Just imagine what the new Build-A-Figure could be!! For the wave after if it ends up being made.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

But yeah, im expecting the 6 piece (at least) BAF set... we so far know Cap and Hawkeye (not sure if thor is a part of that), and the BAF is Terrax... so i can't wait to see him as well. Terrax and Firelord are a must... it'd be nice (and pretty perfect) if Firelord was included in this wave

 

[BizarroAids]

Even if they just showed Cap and Hawkeye and not any others, but I MUST see Terrax. As far as other BAF, I just don't know who I want to see, there are so many!

A friend and I were talking about what if an updated Young Avengers team pack was released for a SDCC and Stature would be the "BAF". But I do know, she's someone I would like to have in a future wave.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

if these MU giant figs are doing well (like they seem to be) i suspect we will see Stature as one... there's not many giant figs left for them to do.. because they keep doing different versions of Giantman/goliath

-Stature
-Wasp
-Yellow Jacket
-Goliath (clint barton)
-Apocalypse
-onslaught

are all pretty good choices for further giant figures in the MU line.. or BAF in the ML line.

 

[BizarroAids]

If they do Onslaught in the MU line, I hope it's his version with the Magneto-esque helmet and just the eyes showing. Not that I hate the full face BAF version, I just loved the other look.

We got a lot of pics and info about MU figures last year, Hasbro better step it up this year and do it again.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

im sure they will.

and if Onslaught gets made, im pretty sure it will be the classic original version, not the crab version. That version got alot of backlash when Toybiz made his BAF... because most people hated the look, and also hated that he was completely out of scale.
