Finally Wave 5 hit here in Pensacola at Target. But, DANG IT, Blade was all gone! D'OH! But they had all the rest(sans Red Skull) so I picked up Colossus. I dont really like the Sabertooth up close, but since Im trying to collect all the Xmen MLs, I guess he'll be in my collection soon enough. Silver Surfer was pretty cool looking, though. Not shiny enough, but still pretty awesome.
Colossus is very nice, but those thumb joints kinda suck. They're really loose and I hade to snap one back in already. Beyond that, he's really damned good. Puts that old one from years back to waste.

I've seen Surfer and Fantastic on one Target out of about nine I went to. The only other place i've seen them is Walmart.
I can't wait till they hit so I can find Skully, Blader and Stretcho.

My friend went to a toy show and picked up a Surfer for $10, a good price considering those Toy Shows have jacked up prices. On his way home, he went to a Wal*Mart and thought he found super-poseable Spidey's from the second movie, but they turned out to be "Web-Trap Spider-Man"......whatever the hell that means. A good figure, but not as good as I wanted. He still has those freakin' stupid ass web shooting hands! Argh! I ing hate those hands! I am going to a different Wal*Mart and Target in about an hour after I eat. We hope to find any of the following: -Blade from ML5 -Super Poseable Spider-Man from SM2 -Carnage from SMC9 -Cyclops from XMC -Angel from XMC -Hulk Classics Overall, a pretty big list. I just hope that I find something I want. And it's a blizzard outside...

Bah...didn't make it to any store. God damn that snowstorm. I took advantage of it though, and made $32.50.

Interesting thing at work today. In the newest case of ML4, Punisher and Elektra both came with the Urban Legends posterbook included in the UL boxset insted of their normal comics. Beast and gambit still came with comics.
And I saw the 18-inch Spidey, which is so awesome! I didn't buy it though, because the paint was kind of screwed up.

My girlfriend rocks!
For Christmas she got me ML 5 Sabretooth. For my birthday (yesterday) she got me ML 5 Nick Fury and RED SKULL!
My jaw dropped when I opened it. I never thought I would see one outside of a comic con with a $100 price tag on it.
Red Skull's articulation is a lot like the movie Daredevil's, which is a little disappointing. I didn't open it for that reason. I will only open it if I have a real use for the figure.

is this rare? I've have only seen it on ebay? cgi.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3167676431&category=49017 will it be worth anything? I was thinking about getting a set to keep MOC and a set to open and display.....what do you all think about this?

My Gamestop had a crapload of MLs. All of ML1 except Toad, Thor and Wolverine from ML3, all of ML4, including 2 Elektras.
I picked up an Iron Man with my gift card.
And I am seriously doubting that "super poseable Spider-Man" from Spidey 2 exists. All I see in stores are hundreds of those crappy ones like "Light post Spider Man", etc.

All I see in stores are hundreds of those crappy ones like "Light post Spider Man", etc. I got mine in the mail today from a trade. I'm rather disappointed in it. The extra torso joint really does nothing for poseability. They could just stuck with the new torso joint and it would work all the same. There is no lateral movement on his ankles which sucks for a spider man...that's a must have for him. The figer joints are kinda cool, but are all too loose. Teh quadruple shoulder joint is pretty nice though. He just doesn't live up to the hype IMO. Not to mention his base has no foot pegs for him

Heres the lineups for the next few ML series/box sets, thanks to whoever posted them on action-figure.com, who found it on epicheroes.com Marvel Legends 6 -Movie Punisher -Juggernaut -Deadpool -Cable -Brown Costume Wolverine 7 -Stealth Armor Iron Man -War Machine -Hawkeye -Apocalypse -Ghost Rider -Weapon X Wolverine 8 -Doctor Strange -Not Confirmed -Storm -Iceman -Modern Armor Iron Man -Ulitmate Capatain America 2 Box Sets -Spiderman & the SinisterSix Box Set Contains: Spiderman Doc Octopus Green Goblin Scorpion Sandman Rhino Chameleon -Fantastic Four Box Set Contains: Mr Fantastic Invisible Woman Human Torch Thing Frank Richards Looks like a bunch of rereleases in the upcoming sets...hopefully the FF sets will have some new sculpts (especially the ****ty ML torch..at least a new head), and maybe some newer joints and jumpsuit for Thing I'm looking forward to them though, especially Deadpool and Doctor Strange, but I'm disappointed that Phoenix wasn't included in any form, hopefully in X-Men Classics series 3 The Sinister Six box set has the potential to be the best thing Toybiz has ever released Nice try, those line-ups have already been proven false over on the Superherohype messageboards.

If you guys go to Walmart, look for the Beast packaged with open mouth on ML IV carding. He's ultra rare. Go ahead and put this on the ML checklist CE, since it counts as a variant. is that realy that rare becouse i think i saw him with a open mouth at target.

Amazon has a way of making me a liar. Well, all of ML 1 is readily abundant at Game Stop anyway. So that's always an option.

Where the hell is Toad? What ever happened to him?
And I finally tracked down the poseable spidey. He's...so wiggly!

They stopped shipping Toad in the newer cases of ML 1.
