I was surprised to see Series 11 on the shelf tonight at London Drugs (since it was only 2 weeks ago that I first saw the Sentinel Series 10 at Zellers).  They had 2 variant Vengeance figures, so I grabbed them both - 1 is up for anyone that wants it.

Ghost Rider Stunt Cycle

I'm a huge GR fan from during my comic reading days of the early 90's, so I'll have to grab a couple of these to add to my Legends GR and (now) Vengeance.  That Penance Stare GR has me very curious.

MARVEL MEGA MORPHS - TV

Definitely the dumbest line they've come up with.

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. 

Agreed.  I saw 3 Bulleyes at WM today, 2 of which were the variants.

does Vegeance have a variant? i thought only Logan and Wonderman and the super rare Scarlet Witch

I'm not sure it does.  I'm not doubting Jesse, but I think there was a production change that's making people think there is a variant.  On the package the bones appear, well, bone color.  But on the production figure they appear purple.  Weird. 

Now I could be totally offbase with that and Jesse might have something entirely different in hand.  I found the two other variants - Wonder Man and Logan - and there were no differences with the Vengeance figures that came with them.  Usually the variants are all in a single case so I thought if there was another variant I'd have found it.  I was hoping that Scarlet Witch was in with the variants as well, but it seems not to be the case.

It looks like a poster at Fwoosh got their hands on a few of the figures from ML 12, although not from retail.  Some nice pics at the linky though if you want to take a look at some of the wave.

[Morgbug]

Thanks Brian.

Hmm.  Interesting pictures.  I believe that's the Cyclops from the short lived X-series that had Archangel as well.  Interesting to note that the most recent Cyke doesn't match up with Bishop and Cable as well as that figure does.  Oops. 

Sasquatch and Maestro are huge.  Good luck to the MOMC crowd with this series.  Two figures in an assortment that are the same size as Juggernaut or Hulk Buster Iron Man?   I sense crushed bubbles in our near future. 

The Sasquatch in that picture is less appealing to me than previously.  I'll still get one, but my desire for the variant is pretty minimal.  I thought it was white, not cream in color.  Yeeuch.  Still, if I see the variant, I'll snap it up and open it. 

X-23 remains wholly unappealing to me, as is Bishop, a guy from the end of my comic days.  I loved the comparison on Fwoosh to Alannis Morrisette.  LOL. 

BTW, which spidey is that?

Actually, you're right Brent, that's exactly what I found.  Strange that they would have changed the bone paint colour.

Oh well, he'll look cool standing next to GR.

It looks like the first appearance one without the armpit webbing.

And I really need a gun for my Cable (and that frigging cannon / bike thing that came with him doesn't count).  Any suggestions?

Ok, good.  Had me worried there.  I think if you're a GR fan the figure is just fine.  I'm not such a huge fan so opted to pass on it.

Thanks Mikey.  I'd thought it might be, but wasn't sure.  It looks better then without the webbing, that much is certain.

No ****? Wow.

I'm pumped now.

I don't know if this is old news or not, but in the most recent ToyFare, they have (sorta) pictures of Annihulus and Doombot, which are going to be in the FF movie line. I say sorta because Annihilus is in the background so you can't see all of him, and Doombot is just a little blip. The article said to go to Toybiz.com for more info, but I couldn't find any there 

[Morgbug]

Pics of Iron Fist and the rest of ML12 are found here.  I don't think we had a complete set of pics links yet, so I popped this up.  Looks good. 

Anyone have a guess on the ETA?

[Brian]

Thanks for the pics Brent.  Doesn't look like too bad of a wave overall.  I don't know that I'll buy too many, but they do look nice.  I plan on getting Astonishing Wolverine for sure, because I like the look of it and need a little better scaled Wolverine ( just have ML3 right now).  Others look nice though too, and the BAF Apocalypse would be neat to have.  I'm not overly familiar with Bishop, as he wasn't really in a lot of my comics growing up (and one or two that I've seen recently), but is he that ginormous?  He just looks huge in those comparison pictures, like he could take on the Hulk.

[Morgbug]

My recollection is that Bishop was about the size of Cable.  Both large men, but not nearly so big as the Hulk.  I think some of those figures are grossly out of scale, but what can you do.  I don't recall Apocalypse being as large as a Sentinel either though. 

Suggestion is that Legendsactionfigures.com will have wave 12 soon.  I'm not sure of the pricing (not reasonable for you folks, but maybe to me) but I may opt to get these quick, as I don't expect them at retail before Christmas.  Post Christmas is just too bleak for toys around here, so we may miss the wave.  Sort of happened last year.

It looks like the Man Wolf wave (SMC 16) has been released in Hong Kong according to a poster at Fwooshnet.  Might not be too far off around here either.

Bishop and Cable are normal sized, but like all super heroes, they are very muscular.

Apocalypse can shape shift, and thus can change his size. He appeared in X-Men a few times in that huge form. Thats why we got a small Apocalypse and a big version.
