Marvel Universe craziness lately. Haul from the last 2 weeks:
= Frost Giant/Loki and Bill Foster/Ragnarok Gigantic Battles packs from Walmart. Really great I definitely love both.
= Captain America Wave 2 case from Entertainment Earth. Crossbones, Captain America WWII, US Agent, Bucky as Captain America, Red Skull are all awesome. Really love Crossbones and Bucky in particular but they are all great. Two negatives though, Captain Britain is too small all around and the Arctic Cap x 2 is just stupid, Crossbones should be in his place. Also the shield with Bucky Cap is really stupid, instantly replaced it with a normal MU shield.
= Taskmaster comic pack from eBay. Awesome.
= Marvel Universe Wave 13 from Entertainment Earth. Why Cable and Cyclops are 1 per case I have no idea. Hasbro does this on purpose. It does not make any sense. That aside, the whole wave, again, is awesome. My Cable came with Hope, I left him carded. I buy 2 of each figure, 1 to open, 1 to keep carded. I'll post collection pics here one of these days. At any rate, Wave 13 revision 1 I have on order from Entertainment Earth shipping in July, will have another Cable, Flame On Torch, Thanos, some other carded figs I need. It's a good case and a good fix to the shortpack issue, it also has Cyclops.
= Also got the Giant Size X-Men 6 pack from TRU at lunch today. Love the Storm and Proudstar (Thunderbird). Colossus has a great paint job, real metallic with a bluish tint wash. Storm is a great likeness.
Just crazy amounts of figures lately. I am loving this.
I also have a Wave 14 case on order from EE: X-23, Falcon, Dr. Strange, Ben Reilly Spidey, Skarr. 2 of each of all of those then 1 Apocalypse and 1 Gladiator. Again, why not Cable and Cyclops? Why does Hasbro need to create this shortpack issue?
