    Thanks!

    Yeah, I noticed that when I overlaid the two images to see exactly what was changed. Guess it's cheaper to photoshop the new face on and change the hair colour instead of taking completely new photos.

    Curious if some of the SH Figuarts for Endgame will be saved until after the film's release in order to keep everything a surprise.

    You might want to jump on that Infinity War Hulk though. It's AMAZINGLY good.

    The beauty of the IW Hulk is that it's just generic enough to fill most any spot in a collection. The only significant change they could make is for the head and face to be more more Ruffalo-esque.

    I hope they do a cool
    Professor Hulk figure in the expanding suit
    if the concept art is true. And armored Thanos would be awesome too, from both tamashii and marvel legends

    That's fair.

    This isn't a criticism, just an observation, but the 1st movie Hulk looks like the same mold except for the thighs, knees, and head. Also, the head looks less like Ruffalo than the IW version IMO.

    That said though, i may well be tempted to double-dip.


    EDIT: Regarding capes, it would be nice if, moving forward, they did something like they did with the Kamen Rider Flame Wizard.

    There's wires in both the vertical front halves and the horizontal hem at the bottom.

    Agreed. Mind you, i enjoy having the likeness when they can pull it off, but I don't hate it if it's not there as long as it doesn't look like garbage in a general sense.

    I haven't been doing a whole lot of futzing about with them, so they're fine.
    I'm more of a "set it and forget it" type, so my figs stay static for a good period of time.

    The first Thor was pretty crappy. Head mold was terrible, cape terrible

    IW thor has a much more accurate head and cloth cape

    If someone wants to just copy that head and cape so i can slap it on my AoU thor, that'd be fine

    Has anyone actually ordered with deepdiscount before? @Predaking000 and @Ceasar121 I know you two mentioned them earlier, but I just wanted to get some insight. The price for Wasp on there is very tempting and I’ll totally order it as long as it’s not a bootleg. I guess I’d be able to tell if the package doesn’t have Bandai or Tamashii or Marvel’s licensing info on it

    To chime in, loads of my Godzilla DVDs are due to their fine website. Legit seller for sure, with branching into Tamashii stuff a nice surprise.

    Awesome, glad I can trust them. Now that you guys mentioned their DVD selection, I kind of want to buy some movies from them haha. You learn something new every day!

    One last question. When I buy it, is it a preorder in the sense of other retailers like BBTS where you won’t get charged until it’s in stock? Or will they charge me upfront?
