    Rumor is Walgreens is getting out of the toy game - no Marvel Legends figure this year was confirmed

    Has Hasbro said anything about availability for figures like this, Cosmos or Galaxy Shuttle? They keep releasing high profile characters as exclusives and it's driving my buddy's kids crazy. He ended up buying 3rd party figures for christmas this year since Hasbro doesn't want to release their own figures in the states

    Ali Express has Minervas for around $40-45 shipped.

    It may be your best option unless you want to wait until next Christmas and hope they get stock in like they did with Red Alert a month ago.

    -SS (Mine came at $37 shipped which isnt much more than Walgreens.com wouldve been)

    I'm still hoping we get a ( headmastered ) nightbeat so we can get a proper minerva too, but I'm not holding out to much hope so I may just order one off ebay I guess.

    In case you missed it in the Walgreens thread, someone was kind enough to post that Minerva is now live for online delivery orders.

    Thanks. I was able to grab one. I'm still hoping that when we get nightbeat, they'll Remold it into minerva. Lucky for me it'll be easy to rehome this minerva when/if that happens.
