    Kind of want Marvel Select to make a Endgame Thanos. Their modern comic Thanos was sculpted by the same guy that sculpted the Marvel Legends modern Thanos and the former looks way better. Plus the bigger figures in Select don't look very out of place next to Legends.

    I just worry about how the plastic would feel, something off about Selects in-hand.

    It's the paint. They feel all nice and tight, until you break the paint making the joints tight.

    I'd like em better if they used colored plastic. No reason for them to make the entire figure in white plastic and, assault it with paint.

    Zack Oat was nice enough to send me a replacement Hulk head, after I ruined it trying to take the Gladiator paint off. Hulks head is white and all paint.

    Rogue is almost all paint. Shes cast in a dark yellow and painted with a light yellow.

    Damn, that’s the best Ruffalo likeness so far. I’d be down to get this, but it’ll probably be way too big to fit in with the Legends lol

    I'm not buying it. It's not Hulk. Its 20 million dollar Mark Ruffalo.


    Whole figure

    This looks so much better than the SHF and BAF figures. Even though it’ll likely be far too tall compared to Thanos and the other Avengers, I’m now leaning towards this instead of the SHF. It’s cheaper, more accurate, has the gauntlet, and seems articulated well enough. Only benefit the SHF appears to have is the rough correct scale

    It does help a lot that it's on supposed to be $30 I think.

    Hoping Marvel Select gets an Endgame Thanos. Hasbro BAF is lacking and the Figuarts one isn't in the scale I want. Plus a $30 armored Thanos with kill blades seems like a bargain given the scale.

    I have the SHF, haven’t opened it yet though. If marvel select came out with a better one, I’d gladly sell the SHF to someone who wanted it more. The SHF works in scale for the most part, but not really. It’s right on the line.
    This marvel select Hulk looks amazing but if he towers over Thanos then idk if I’ll like that haha

    Figuarts Thanos would win hands down for detail and paint. I think Select would give the best bang for buck. I don't really feel like building Hasbro Thanos.

    Official description for Marvel Select Hulk From Marvelous News:

    Damn, 9 inches is absolutely too tall to fit in with the 1/12 stuff. I feared as much, though I’m not surprised. I was just hoping it could work, the headsculpt is so good! Guess I’ll have to get the SHF after all...

    I think 9-inches Hulk figure in a 6.5 inch line is quite good enough (borderline-wise).

    Hulk in this scene is not fully standing up.

    here's from Thor Ragnarok..

    Good thing about this Hulk Select is that it doesn't use T-Crotch Hips like from the 1st Avengers film.

    It would be a good size if it was savage Hulk, but smart Hulk is shorter, so it wouldn’t work too well imo. Plus it’d be way too tall compared to the Thanos figures available. Now if Marvel Select made their own Endgame Thanos...that’d change the situation

    I think it would be smart of them to make a MCU Thanos. That's the Thanos I'd buy.

    I think the MCU originally made Hulk too big. I've always been a fan of him being 7.5-8' tall. With Thor being much smaller than he supposed to be, that size works out.

    Ragnarok Hulk was perfect. Then, they literally killed that character. The select Gladiator fits in great.

    FEIGE BANNERS FRIEND.

    One month later my Cattoys shield is here. It feels ok, straps are decent. Paint looks good, though not as clean around the circles, but not noticeable unless you're anal about things.

    How much did you pay if you don’t mind me asking? I wanted a shield with better quality than the ML version, but significantly cheaper than the ML metal special version

    Avengers: Endgame S.H.Figuarts Hulk

    Well that price dropped quickly. I guess NOONE preordered it for 150 dollars.

    I personally think the Marvel Select Endgame Hulk looks better, and it comes with the Iron Gauntlet.
