    Never heard of popfindr. I've tried Brickseek before, but it's only sometimes accurate.

    Says all stores around me have 0.

    Well just click that link each day and it will tell you when they get them. Note that when the seekers came in, I checked early in the morning, like 8:00 am and They had no stock and then a couple hours later that same day they had stock.

    I ordered that movie Cable but the bulk of my order was surprisingly TFs.

    Oh, and a word of warning: If you're on Amazon and you see "STL PRO, Inc." selling retro Storm for $17, yeah, it's actually retro Samurai or some other random figure.

    the goblin's colors are positively neon in that pic!

    He isn't that bright in reality, is he?

    I would love to get one if he had his comics-accurate batwinged glider...

    the Original (even though it’s seems the 616 version ain’t much better) Evil Beast. i know others got him a while ago. I was just happy to find one in the store.

    His purple is decently dark and the green is in a tad bright, no where near as the colors in my pic. I was trying to simulate exposure, sorry for the misunderstanding. I can take a regular pic later if you’d like.

    Yeah, although it’s a pretty specific look, I actually find myself preferring the bomber jacket cyke as a toy. The jacket adds to the fun somehow.

    So I reorganized my shelves and I have to say I am fucking fed up with people tumbling. Why is it so hard to get these things to stand on the shelf together without toppling? Now, my Beetle (Sandman Wave) broke her fucking small wing off at the rotation joint. Really pisses me off, none of my Marvel Legends have broke anything with all the times they've fallen over, not even my Wasp (Ultron Wave) which has the same damn wings as her, and the one time, THE ONE TIME, Beetle actually falls off the shelf her wing has to hit at the precise right angle to snap a piece off.

    I might try gluing it on, since I'm not about to blow more cash on a replacement right now unless I find it on a TRU shelf for 5$. But I am not amused.

    I hear Flyguy say this all the time in his reviews, but seriously Hasbro, you went to all the trouble to add peg holes in the fucking feet, make the fucking stands already so I don't break my god damn toys from half-gainers off the shelf. It can't be that hard to just make a rectangular piece of plastic with pegs for the feet that are all uniform in size, hell if the cost is so much make them generic as fuck with no markings, bundle them in packs of 50 and sell them for Star Wars Black Series and ML collectors off of Pulse.

    Unless you have to have Hasbro distributed peg stands, you can buy generic peg stands right now if you wanted to...

    Hasbro would make the pegs on the stands uniform, I highly doubt the pegs on third party stands are uniform, meaning one size fits all. Also I don't really want stands, but I also don't want the damn things falling and breaking. At least give us flight stands for flying characters, they made one for Mercy in Overwatch Ultimates so they definitely know how.

    I think this issue has come up and people have shared universal peg stands that work for most MLs. But I agree about not wanting peg stands...I think they distract from the overall display. I have plenty of clear Tamashii stands and other stands that come with my high end figures that I use for whatever figure needs them. I don’t want Hasbro to make stands included because they will either be shitty (like that useless one that has come with some recent Black Series Troopers) or make them charge more and most likely both. There are plenty of quality stands on the market that are not very expensive.

    Classic vs Jim Lee/cartoon era. I love them both. I wasn’t going to by multiples of the same characters but I couldn’t help it with them

    Puts on "buzz killing nerd hat".
    Technically Wolverine didn't don the brown costume until after Phoenix was dead and gone from the series.
    Takes hat off.
    Instantly feels ashamed of himself

    Hey if anyone comes across the new Moon Knight when he is released, was wondering if anyone might be interested in a trade... I have an extra Silver Surfer would be willing to trade straight across for Moon Knight... Shoot me a PM...

    Sadly yes. Wolverine didn't don the brown and yellow costume until 1 or 2 issues later (during Kitty's solo adventure against the N'gral (sp?) IIRC).

    If it helps Wolverine did have the brown and yellow costume at the start of the Jim Lee series. So technically you could switch the position of the two Wolverines.

    You could put the brown and yellow version on the Jim Lee side and the yellow and blue version on the Phoenix side. Admittedly that particular yellow and blue Wolverine costume is the Jim Lee version, not the Cockrum version but it's meant to be the Cockrum version. The only difference are minor - the belt buckle and the size of the shoulder pads I think.

    Don't feel badly. I do the same thing with my 80s era X-Men (Brown Wolvie with Phoenix).
    You can thank the 90s cartoon for firmly ingraining into my head that 90s X-Men is all about the Tiger Stripe Wolverine costume and ToyBiz Wolverine I and the X-Men arcade game for cementing brown suited Wolverine into the older era of costumes.

    And to this day, when people use the brown suited Wolverine in their Jim Lee displays, it still seems odd to me, even though it shouldn't.
