The Toys thread

[Spider-ManHero12]

The Target by my house has put all of the figures from the show on clearance. I don't know if they're doing a recall because of the vast difference between some of the figures and their actual appearances on the show or what. They sell for $9.99 and they were on clearance for $6.38 so I picked up a few for a friend of mine.

I hope they release a better Venom, Ock, and Symbiote Spidey because those look NOTHING like they do in the show.

Clearance? so soon? That's odd.

Not really, toys are so damn expensive now a days. I'm not surprised

 

[0neDisturbedSOB]

Yeah man I totally agree. Paying $9.99 for those things is WAY too much for me on principal alone. It wasn't too long ago when they were $6.99 which to me is fairly reasonable, but $9.99 is a rip off. I shelled out $30+ to get the 3 different armors for the Iron Man figures to collect, but still that was too much.

Not to mention the quality of figures has gone WAY down too.

I'd pay $9.99 for a McFarlane figure, but not for one of the Spider-Man ones. Especially when they're not even accurate to the show.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I do agree that $9.99 is too much. A few years ago, figures were about $6.00.

 

[0neDisturbedSOB]

$5.99 is a fair price for an action figure. Especially one that looks nothing like the character in the show. $9.99 is just asking for your line to end up in the clearance bin.

I wonder if they'll re-do the series 1 figures and make them look more like they do in the show? Spider-Man was the only one that was accurate.

If the prices are going down at target do you think they'll go down at walmart? Thats the only place I can get them since its close.

It's possible, but stores have different policies and sales and such.

 

[Gotham]

Going out today to buy whatever figure I can from the show. I shelled out twenty dollars for The Dark Knight action figures. Why not this?

well most kids if given the choice between a figure that looks like it could be a real person, and one that looks like a super stylized person will usually take the normal one

 

[0neDisturbedSOB]

If they weren't $9.99 I'd pick up a Spidey because I like the style of the show, and at least that figure resembles his animated counterpart, but like I said before, $9.99 is just ridiculous for a figure like that.

I'm hoping they re-do the first series so they're accurate.

 

[spida-man]

Not sure who it was but someboy complained about how in the S-M movie trilogy series the blac suit spidey figure with the wall ahnging web was all black instead of half black half red like the picture

well fear no more because my prediction came true, there are 2 different versions : one that is all black and one that is half black half red(I wen to Target recently and i saw the figure. and i don't think it is an exclusive since it didn't have the Target sticker on it)
anyways for whoever wondered about that i though i would just share the good news.

 

[Grievous]

will the Green Goblin be in the next wave of SSM figures?

 

[ReggieWhiteJr]

I went looking for some of the toys yesterday in Meijer and they had none!

 

[MarvelWarrior]

Walmart and Toys R Us are your best bets. They were for me at least.

 

[Web-Head408]

Got my Sandman figure in the mail from Hasbro ToyShop. Pretty cool, the face has some nice likeness to the design in the show.

 

[MarvelWarrior]

I'm ordering Sandman now. I can't find him in stores at all.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^ They're probably not in all states yet. Maybe in a week or so we will get them.

 

[Spectacular23]

i bought the venom Toy today for my collection. it okay but it is way to bulky and i was suspecting him to be tall and muscular. He already big i just thoughty he would be a bit taller than spidey. also what up with his feet they look like a large scissors

 

[Web-Head408]

Got me Sandman last week from HasbroToyShop. Very cool indeed.

They don't look like that in his final design. The toys were probably based on earlier revisions of the designs.

so you mean there going to be another toy design of venom?

 

[Web-Head408]

No, just saying the toys were probably based on earlier revisions to get them out as quick as possible. It's all about money, remember.
