No idea who Ghost is, but pretty cool.

Anyone have a spare Spiderowoman? (Black & Red)

I'm going to order a Wave 13 case, there's a Spider-Woman in there.  I have 2 now but 1 is being painted as Skrull Queen!

So, if you can hold out a bunch of weeks, i'll mail you your figure.

That'd be awesome - just let me know what you want for her.  Thanks!

Cool custom of Ghost by the way.  I'm not a Thunderbolts guy, but have seen him enough in Iron Man to know that's a fantastic replica.  Using Aurra for that decrpid/bony thin look was pure genius.

new pics of Loki have surfaced on ebay.  Here are some pics.  For those of you that don't recall, he will be coming out in the WM exclusive pack with the huge Frost Giant.  I still have not heard a release date on these new sets, but hopefully this indicates it will be soon.

Thanks for the link.  I think I'd prefer a more neutral expression but I get that Marvel was going for mischievious with that look.  Hopefully some Asian seller will have singles.  I doubt I'll ever see the battle pack so I'll hope for a single. 

Anyone seeing the Thanos wave still?  Prices are settling a bit on Ebay but I'd still prefer paying retail.

I think my Target got one of the revision waves in because they just got a Dark Hawkeye and Yellow Jacket - but there were no variant figures on the pegs.

Re-stock at Wally finally.  More of the Juggernaut wave.  Ugh.

I know a lot of the focus is on SW and stuff right now (rightfully so), but I was just looking through some of the press pics for the Marvel stuff, and it looks like some good stuff from MU this year.  Not a ton of stuff shown, but the pics look kind of nifty for some of them, and it looks like they've done superior versions of some previous figures (Namor, Doom, etc.).

Basic Figures - in no particular order
Apocalypse
Jim Lee Cyclops
Darkhawk
Dr. Doom
Dr. Strange
Falcon
Gladiator
Namor
Scarlet Spider
Commander Rogers
Skaar
Ultron
1st App. Wolverine
X-23

Comic Packs
Deadpool/Taskmaster
1st Class Cyclops/Jean Grey
Wolverine/Sabertooth
Spider-Man/Original Captain Britain
Wonder Man/Quicksilver

And Invisible Woman!

(Who doesn't look quite as good as I hoped)

But most of the stuff really does look great.

reportedly there will be a clear Dr. Strange variant coming too.

Yeah, forgot to mention the multipacks (Original Avengers, X-Force, Fantastic Four).  Those look great as well.  I really like that F4 pack, with the more modern uniforms included.  Kind of spiffy.

Too bad my stores don't give a crap about this line because this new product is really good. Can't wait to finish of the F4 and the X-Men products are awesome.

That's kind of how it is around here as well, very hit and miss at retail.  Target has basically sat on the same stuff for a long time now, and WM removes this line completely once "summer movie season" gets here.  TRU isn't a whole lot better.  This is a line that it usually pays to just preorder them ahead of time.  Looks like some really nice stuff on the way this year, which makes it tougher as I try to decide between this and Legends (when they re-start).
