I don't know if this is news, but I found the brown Wolverine and the dark blue Spiderman repaint at Target in Hackensack, NJ. I got the only set. I will post pics later...

The old version is a very light blue where as he is a very dark blue...
Wajo357:
Woops... double post

Regarding the new Spidey, could you tell me the UPC number, and the assortment/product number? I want to give this info to my shopping contact so she doesn't accidentally pick up the first one instead of this one.
Thanks a lot!

EDIT: Nevermind -- didn't see the added pic up top. Yeah, that's much darker than the first version. Enh... I'm happy with my black version.
ORIO:
Cool. I wanna wait for that x-force wolvie. Hopefully commission a Radicon for a Trailbreaker.
engledogg:
Thanks much!

Beastbot X:
Barely-repaints FTL. These will be the first two Marvel TFs I'll be passing on.
SoundMaster:
Hackensack? That's were I go in NJ to get my tfs. Maybe they will have these again when I go next time. I have interest in the Wolverine.
Bgrngod:
If these things were about half the size, I might consider it. They are just too darn big.
LightningZERO:
I already have 2 of the Spidey mold. Will pass on them
Aberration:
I passed on the original Wolverine release, hoping that this repaint would come because I always liked the brown costume better. That yellow should've been replaced with orange, but no sense in crying about it.
I won't be buying the Spider-Man repaint, but I do think that the dark blue is an improvement.

The wolverine Looks wickedly better in this paint schem; I'll go with this one. I really only want the helicopter spiderman though.
The bright blue did not look very natural in bike mode; the darker blue has a easier time blending with other parts from my perspective. So maybe get this one if: you missed the first two/ line completist/ wanted a sharper classic costume
TIE Bomber:
I want the Spider-Man / Iron-Man combiner. When's it due?
RageTreb:
WE NEED MORE VILLAINS!! At this point, I don't care if they paint Wolverine black and call him "Anti-Wolverine," JUST GIVE US MORE EVIL CHARACTERS.
Optimus Vader:
Am I the only one who hates these? I love Transformers, Starwars, and X-Men/DC Comics, etc, but Wolverine isn't a robot. Neither is Chewbacca.
When I was a kid I didn't like to mix the different foods on my plate either.

SMOG:
I usually look forward to these as fresh kitbash fodder. These are just repaints, and not especially different ones. Spidey is an awkward figure to bash anyway and my one complaint is the way Wolverine's arms are so long. He looks sort of funny mixed with other TFs.... though I would buy ANY repaints they come up with for Captain Hummerica. That's a great mold, with a few nice alternate tranformations!
I want new molds! I want villains! I want repaint/remolds of things that aren't Spiderman and Wolverine!

I hate this marvel cross over nonsense; I wish there was a separate website for it so it would not clog up the news section on this here fine website.
BlueAngel_Bolt:

I'd like to know that too. The 2 Pack will be the last of the Marvel Cross-Overs for me.

Transformers is popular but Star Wars and Marvel are more so. So Hasbro try to get Transformers fans buying Marvel/Star Wars products and Marvel/Star Wars fans to buy Transformers product.
Or something like that. They're Crossovers. Thats all there is too them.

TheMindZombie:
I already have the first 2 Spider-Man figures so this one will be a maybe, but the new Wolverine will definantly be added to the collection!

I bought the first wolverine mold but I dunno I really don't care that much about these crossover figures. I think I just find the transformers characters more interesting as robots.
RedAlert Rescue:
I think if you painted the panel lines on the darker Spider-Man in the toy silver he'd look rather like Movie Spider-Man.
I was considering painting the panel lines on the one I had already but as the Figure- mode is so poorly articulated and therefore not a very good Spider-Man in the end I didn't bother. I also think the backpack design is not ideal either.
I like the Wolverine mold mind.
josh5837:
i think that since there are so many repaints of these guys i dont doubt that there will be a red hulk repaint
