Kingpin?  Nah, never mind ::)

Just wait, they'll release him as a chase figure :-X

Who is this kingpin you speak of? ::)

A character of such low importance that nobody in their right mind would want him.

I'm hoping he's part of the Famous Battle choices.

Dude, kids are always clamoring for fat white guy figures!

Dude, since when are kids the ones buying these?  The spidey figures that are packed with the villains, yes.  Fat white dudes, no. 

Still, it ain't fun having web blaster spiderman fight spin 'n kick spiderman, sometimes you need a baddy, even if he is fat and white.  Besides, I believe some kids can actually read the comics, not just play video games :P

I was just joking about the Kingpin thing, but now that I think about it, it wouldn't really be that bad of a figure, from a collector standpoint. Kingpin can fight; he's not just a fat guy, and I wouldn't mind seeing one somewhere down the road, just not in the immediate future.

Now, this thread at ToyNewsI has a supposed list of ToyBiz product for 2006, and includes something we haven't seen before (or I hadn't at least):

Two-Packs: (all re-used heroes, new sculpted bad guys)
Hulk and Leader
Cap and Red Skull
Kingpin and Daredevil

If that is true, it would be great to finally get a Kingpin.  I would think he could easily fit into the Marvel Legends line, but at least getting him one way or another would be alright.  Plus, I don't have a Daredevil yet anyways.  The rest of the list at the linky, but it seems to be rumors we've heard before otherwise.

 :'( - that's the site of those with a red skull from ML IV crying at the mention of an easy to get version.  I have one, but fortunately I didn't overpay.  I thought it was a stupid figure to make as a chase figure anyway - Cap's main villain.   ::)

I'd be pleased as punch to see a Kingpin in any way I can get him.  A two pack is an improvement over the usual box-set approach they use to unload unwanted repaints :P  I bought five figures to get Electro and four more to get the Vulture.  A two pack is a bargain.

Those are nice selections for two packs as well.  Whaddya bet they put the green chase Hulk in with the leader? :P

Oh, and Brian, if you need a Daredevil you're welcome to one of the three or four I have ;)

I don't expect to ever see those two-packs. Whatever became of those Spidey 2-packs that were supposed to have Abomination and Absorbing Man in them? I've never seen them nor heard of anyone actually finding them.

I'm in the same boat as you. I don't want to get my hopes up. Even if we get half of the figures I've seen rumored this past month, I'll be a happy camper. I gotta give props to Toy Biz; they know how to keep their fans happy  :)

Toy Biz tackled much, much of my wish lists as well.


Captain America comes with his trusty sheild, Hawkeye comes with his bow and arrows, and Thor comes with Mjornir. Whereas Jarvis comes with a silver platter and his finest dress slacks.

I don't think we will be seeing a SA Jarvis anytime soon  ;)

Heh, heh, heh 8)

Guess what I found today.

Ayup, ionic wonderman and black jacket Logan 8)  Dang but that's a bit of luck.  I found variant Cyclops and Angel only a couple of weeks ago.  It was obviously a brand new case put out at the store (I went to pick up chicken and shampoo) so there appear to be no Scarlet Witch in our cases unfortunately.   :'(

Oh and it's one mighty awful case pack ratio too :-X

Ultron x1
Taskmaster X1
Hulk Buster Iron Man x2
Logan x2
Wonder Man x2
Vengeance x2
1st Appearance Thing x2

Why do they think that the Thing will sell so well considering how many of them are out there?  I get the Logan deal, they end up selling, all of them. 

Oh and the Galactus series is officially, horribly overproduced.  I've seen and left three Bullseye variants on the pegs as well as two green Hulks. 

The Sentinel series is baffling the snot out of me too.  Angel and Cyclops are flying off the pegs (I've seen Cyke three times and Angel only twice, one blue, one red) to no one's surprise.  Spiderman is selling well and while the figure is just ok, IMO, it makes sense since that's the head of the Sentinel.  But here's the kicker: the official peg warmers of the series are Omega Red and Mystique.  Ya gotta buy one to finish the Sentinel, so what gives?

Anyway now that my variants are up to date (although I have none from Series VIII and Scott has my gold Ironman) I'm done with these until Series XII, so when's it supposed to be out?

I don't expect to ever see those two-packs. Whatever became of those Spidey 2-packs that were supposed to have Abomination and Absorbing Man in them? I've never seen them nor heard of anyone actually finding them.

I'm still waiting on those Ben, I've heard no reports of them either and I was hoping to pick up the Abomination and possibly a different Hulk.

Ok, my eyes totally glazed over on that. :o

Are the spiderman figure assortments the 6" line?  Because there's lots of figures listed in there of interest, not the least of which is a single packed Electro.  Great news for many, but annoying to many that picked up the S6 box set.  At least for me I wanted the Black Cat, didn't have Kraven and the Green Goblin was better than the first release. 
Of interest:
Man-Wolf
Spider Hulk
Hydroman
Hobgoblin
Sandman
Electro
Toxin


What's up with the 2 and 3 piece figures?

First I've seen of spiderwoman, so that's neat.  Also variants for the rumoured two packs - a variant Kingpin?

Wow, that is quite a list.  I keep thinking to myself that I need to figure out a way to cut back on the non-SW stuff next year, which for me mainly means Marvel/DC stuff.  Looking at that list, there is a lot of stuff that is somewhat tempting to me.  To be honest, even though I had cooled on them a bit, seeing the potential future of the SuperHeroShowdown figures kind of gains my interest again.  Then again, I already have Legends, so I don't know if I need another line in-depth like that.  Plus, it doesn't seem as if anyone else here is collecting them, so that might help to keep the temptation down too.

Although I do feel for the people who bought the Sinister Six set, I'm happy to see that its possible we might see Electro in the Spidey Classics line eventually, if I'm reading that correctly.  I've been thinking that from here on out, I'd stick to Spidey and X-Men (and their respective worlds) when it came to the Legends figures, but even with that there is quite a bit out there.  Even the X-Men 3 Movie line looks like it could be a lot better, at least as far as character selection goes....Wolverine, Cyclops, Beast, Magneto, Gambit, Archangel, Storm, Juggernaut, Phoenix, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Iceman, Rogue, Avalanche, and Sabretooth...that's quite a lineup if true.  Lots of Marvel next year the way it looks.
