Target finally put out the new wave for my purchasing pleasure, haven't had time to open any of them yet though. I was just glad to find them. The one Target seemed to have gotten a refresher case and two Spider-Man endcap displays instead of the new wave.

In the meantime, I'm hoping to find a Doctor Strange someday. Eventually. And my Marvel Shelf has been reconfigured a tiny bit with some new finds.

I have all four Wreckers now, but not enough shelf-space to pose the whole group.

Ridureyu-Your a sly one is that another non MU figure sneaking in. The color scheme and extra arms made me think it was Spiral for a second. That would have made me very jealous.

I was thinking the other day how I'd love to get a Classic Apocalypse, but figured Hasbro wouldn't give us one due to tooling cost. But I saw this custom the other day, and thought, PERFECT!! A Buck reuse that I didn't think of! I hope this is the way Hasbro goes to get us one. All they have to do is retool the neck plating, and the chest piece, and BAM!

It didn't take long for Toys R Us here in Boise to put out a Sentinal, wow I love the Masterworks line. I also was able to pick up a Cable and a Nova Torch. A lot of new goodness for my rotating displays.

Well, Satan Cross has to be the super-secret rare in every toyline, you know.

Also spotted a lone single carded Doom at a Wal-mart along with sentinels. So I guess these will all be showing up soon at Wally Worlds. The sentinels were $55 a pop, which was crazy when TRU has em for $50.

I think I'm caught up with everything except regular Dr. Strange, and team packs, and comic colored Hydra Soldiers from the Cap line, and something else I'm probably missing like new two packs. Drat if this isn't starting to get a little pricey to keep up with all the cool stuff I want.

Havn't seen anything new. And seeing how practically none of the Thor figures in my area have moved at all I'll never see a Destroyer.
So, zero hits for MU lately. But all I really need are the Reg Strange and Scarlet Spider. Found Skaar last weekend. And my Sentinel came in Friday.
I don't think any new 2 packs have hit yet. Or are you still missing the Samurai/Taskmaster sets?

That's only $3.50 per figure.

Maybe it's a good thing I was a little sad

I just need regular Strange and the Avengers team pack to be caught up since I don't need all the variants.

Avengers pack is nice too. Thor has some weird paint apps on the face, It looks good, but just weird how it looks like they stenciled on part of the face, almost like paint is missing on the cheeks and chin. Love the tiny little Ant Man, and he is TINY, like half the size of the Yellow Jacket AntMan.
X-Force set just sucks in my opinion. They used the sucky Deadpool from the XMO Deluxe pack, and all though this ones Paint Apps are better it's just lame to get another Stealth Warpath. Wolverine is fine though. But his legs are a bit loose on the ball hips.
Can't wait for better team packs.
HTS still has the Avengers set up for order I believe. And they just put up Wave 14 cases as well. Though I don't know why they insist on the cases.

So I have a few questions:
- Is there an Ant-Man or Wasp figure?
- Is there a Professor x figure?
And is there a good cartoon with Galactus in it? Grandma and Grandpa got him Galactus for his birthday and now he "wants to watch Galactus."
Thaanks guys.

As for Galactus in a Cartoon. There is the 60's FF series, the 90's FF series, 90's Silver Surfer series, and I believe he may have been in the Superhero Squad cartoon. So bare pickings for Galactus in media aside from comics.

Awesome news (thanks to Rid too). Looks like he'll have to wait for a big one. And when you say big, do you mean action figure size or huge Galactus size?As for Ant-Man, there will be a full size one next year, but right now there is only 2 miniatures, 1 comes with the YellowJacket figure, and another from the Avengers team pack, that is extremely miniscule.

Does anyone have a YellowJacket and Ant-Man? DO you guys do the trading in here?
As for the cartoon, I think some of those are on Netflix. I'm like 85% percent sure about the Silver Surfer one. Thanks!

...in orange. I know, we got green for the Marvel Legends BAF, but the dude is green! The only time FFF was orange was when it wasn't actually him - the only notable orange appearance I've found was when the Midgard Serpent took on Fin Fang Foom's form (hell if I know why) in order to fight Thor.

I know the color bothered me at first too, but it does look good, and FFF is a Shape Shifter as well. Sooo I can live with it. But I agree. I'm pretty sure we will get a Green Running change. Hasbro has made it pretty clear that they intend on repainting just about every figure they ever make at least once.

EDIT!!! OH! and I think I figured out where the orange came from. It appears to be an homage to "Fantasy Masterpieces #2" Where the first appearance of Foom is reprinted in Orange instead of Green. Cool!
