    I've had the Captain America one for ages -It just looks like the packaging has changed.

    Probably a re-launch of the figures on the back of the Avengers Movie.

    All the toys are repaints from the Crossovers line. I notice some small change in the Cap paint on his windshield. Iron Man now has gold instead of yellow highlights and a blue triangle on his chest. Thor gets new color pants.

    New packaging looks much better. If they werent close to $20 a piece I'd probably pick up a few of these.

    That Iron-Man car looks so much better. The darker red and gold make it seem a little less something. I'll definitely think about picking him up.

    Thor, I'm torn on.

    Iron Man one actually looks pretty good now, as does Thor in bot mode. I always liked the cap one but never bothered to pick it up before. If I see these versions I might be tempted.

    I'll be honest, I wouldn't mind picking up that Cap. again. Really good figure.

    Yeah cap looks great. Shame that they won't release the tank Hulk again which looked amazing. I missed the boat on that one and car spidy. The three I mentioned are probably the only good crossover toys ever.

    New molds please!

    The jumpstarters look great. What's the scheduled release date for those?

    agree that Cap is the best looking one. Also, not going to get into this line ever, but great to see it continuing and giving us fans an alternative line to collect. :D

    Looks like Thor is a recolor. Now without Yellow plastic. I don't have that mold since thor was from a later wave. So I may pick that one up.

    The Iron Man Car is a solid. If boring mold. And the captain America Jeep Is one of the more satisfying clunky figures in the line, though the arms can be a pain to rail lock into position.

    The Marvel line is largely underrated. But there are good Transformers in there.

    I'd be interested in a Ultron or Hawkeye from these if their going to make some new molds.
    Not sure if they made the Jeep into War Machine after the Iron man retooling. But I would like to find one.

    Might pick up Cap and try my hand at that Roadbuster custom that everyone does.

    Thor's alt mode coloring is much improved, I would buy this. Still looks like a kid's drawing of an A-10, but it'll do. I'll find a way to make him into Powerglide.

    I guess these were listed at Toy Fair, but we missed it. There will be a Hulk tank from the looks of things.

    Yeah that would make the best Powerglide ever.

    Dammit. I might have to buy that Thor mold again. Never liked the yellow, but I couldn't argue with the classic look. So torn...

    Great, another lame attempt to squeeze full price out of these 2009 clearance molds.
