    No pictures, but Dave is a long-time fandom contributor and even has a review up of the figures. No reason not to believe him.

    Hooray! Black Spidey and Wolverine will soon be mine! Maybe Human Torch, too. :D

    Not bad, I may get Grey Hulk or Wolverine as an impulse buy if I see them.

    Only bought Venom from wave 1. I'm kinda 'meh' on these. At least the SWTFs are actual vehicles used in the series. And I'll still buy Thor. Who doesn't want a transforming God of Thunder? Oh, and Captain Hummerica.

    Well at least Wolvy looks cool. I don't particularly care for the others but I like the Wolvy mold, it looks cool.

    I saw these all at a Target here in Oregon and they elicited a really nice response of "shrug".

    They just aren't that neat. They are barely recognizable in bot and alt modes.

    I saw these on Monday at Walmart and agree. I like the scale of these alt modes thought but will never buy any of these.

    Can't wait to get Wolvie!

    I wonder why we never got a Transformer like Wolverine or Deadpool.

    well i can say that i was a little disappointed with the first wave of these toys, though the iron man one is something i would definitely like to have and im really looking forward to the captain america toy. though im a little bit iffy about a hummer for an alt mode it just doesnt seem to fit the character to me but i might be crazy so whatever

    I might get one, probably Wolverine at some point. These things are solid heavy.

    I picked up Black-suited Spidey today at a WMT in Lawrenceville, GA. I wanted Wolvie, but the packaging was beat the hell up so I passed. Grey Hulk and Human Torch were there too, but I'm going to see how these sell before I get them. Wave 1 hasn't been moving very fast, and I'd like to get these on clearance later.

    I'm a Wolvie fan so I might pick it up at some point. When I first knew Wolvie was going to be in this line my imediate thought was something remoniscent of Cybertron Overhaul, only better. Glad to see the review thought so too.
