    Has anyone picked any of them up. I bought two boosters when I first saw them, and they both had the same exact thing. I bought another booster last week, and that pack had the same two figures too. They both had a chrome base Spider-man and a Hulk

    Why are there so many of Ghost Rider and Spiderman in one wave? I counted three of each...that seems kind of unnecessary given the deep roster of characters Marvel has to pull from. I can understand there being several of those two eventually, after a few waves, but right off the bat those two characters alone account for more than 20% of the first wave.

    The sculpts look pretty cool though. I might pick some of these up.

    Probably because they both have movies coming out this year.

    As Orodruin mentioned, movie support is a big part of it.

    The various Ghost Rider's are pretty distinct, the "Old West" version is a lot different than the more contemporary one, and the Mega on the Cycle is a whole different type of fig.

    Spidey...there are actually five total across all of the releases...there is a Rare and Super Rare version in the boosters, and a total of three different ones across the two of the starter packs. However, I think we did a good job of making each of them play differently in the game...we had three different sculpts/attacks to work with, each has a different power, one is on the Avengers team, one of the web blast versions has the black and grey armor deco, etc. etc...

    Got a few for my dad's Attacktix army. Captain America's shield-throwing gimmick is pretty cool.

    Maybe I'm the only one that has bad luck. I want to buy some more, but I'm afraid I'll end up getting a Hulk and common Spider-man again

    I was too busy distracted by his HUGE HONKING HAND to care much about his face.
