    Mine arrived from HTS today. I can see what people say about the legs being easy to pop off at the base. Thankfully, mine aren't too bad (they're not comically loose or falling out, like SHMA Battra's legs) and can actually support the weight of the body with Ant-Man on it. Maybe I'll get more annoyed with it if the legs pop out more easily as time goes on, but as of right now I really like it. Ant-Man really could've used an ab crunch, but that aside, pretty pleased with this set.

    On Preview Night I asked one of the Hasbro guys about the status of previous 3.75 figures shown off that weren't on display at SDCC (Chameleon, Goldtron were the ones I could remember off the top of my head that weren't there Wednesday or early Thursday) and he said he remembered them but wasn't working on the 3.75 line BUT the designer that does was supposed to be at the Hasbro booth Friday.

    I was in Indigo all day today so I didn't have a chance to stop by and ask myself, unfortunately.

    Why didn't you ask why Northstar & Colossonaut was in the display case but not at stores like the rest of the wave???

    I really hope Chameleon makes the cut.I don't want to find another Mystero for a chameleon head.Then i would have to buy another suited body to make a custom. I'd rather buy one then make one.

    I really hope Northstar doesn't get sidelined again.Alpha Flight is so close.Still need to dig around for a ML sasqutch(sp?)and i don't count the Snowbird we got.Thats an accessory,not a character.

    Sadly,i fear his answer would be "Have you heard of ML?" .On the bright side,i have a chance to get the last couple i need to be done.

    So with a Green/White Mar-vell, we can 100% complete our Dark Avengers?

    EDIT: nope

    He was the Legends guy, not the 3.75 guy, so figured I'd get the same response as the one I got for Chameleon & Goldtron. From your subsequent post, looks like we got the clarification we were hoping for.

    Looking at that list, there are only a few that jump out at me, and even then I don't know that I'll get them considering the lower quality and higher price.

    Can someone refresh my memory. What's the earliest we could expect the SDCC exclusives to go up on HTS? I NEED that Ant-Man set.

    Tuesday or Wednesday.

    Just as I'm travelling to TFcon, just like last year. Sigh.

    Thanks. What really sucks for me is that they usually put them up when I'm at work, and by the time I get home they're long gone.

    Last year I ordered the Infinity Gauntlet set on August 14 according to my order history. It must have been a restock. So there's that possibility too.

    HTS has a banner right on their website that says exclusives won't be up until June 28th, and they had a similar banner at SDCC.

    I'd be shocked if they went up earlier.

    I'm pretty sure I've seen Northstar at TRU one time, back when the Bishop wave first showed up. I think he's horrifically rare for some reason.

    TJ Maxx randomly had the Silver Surfer and Dr. Strange comic two-pack. Never got the chance to get the regular Strange (and just plain never bought Silver Surfer), so I decided to pick it up. It's really interesting to compare the two toys, as Surfer is one of the earliest toys in the line and Strange is later and quite possibly the most articulated of the line. Cool to see how far the line came, but kinda sad to see how it's regressed now.

    I do still prefer the hip joints on the new toys, though. If only Hasbro had figured that out earlier.

    Are you confusing him with his sister Aurora? They were supposed to share packaging so he was on it too.

    In any case it seems the missing ones will be in the NEXT wave!
    They have shown up on Taobao(Chinese ebay equivalent).
