    Since I can't search for the old one :p 

    #1. Anyone see the pics of the leaked new Walmart Wave? They look AWESOME.

    We have:
    1. AOA Sabertooth
    2. Captain Britain
    3. Kitty Pryde
    4. Regular sized Ant Man
    5. Thor (Not sure, but he looks like a straight re-release of the original ML Thor)
    6. Havok (Original Black X-Men outfit!)
    7. Warbird (aka Carol Danvers, aka Ms. Marvel, aka Binary)
    8. AOA Wolverine with Variant "burnt head"
    9. Sentry with Variant long hair, beard.
    10. ????
    BAF: GIANT MAN! :rock 

    The front side of the card shows 10 pieces to make Giant Man, but the back of the card only shows 9 figures. So #10 as far as I can tell, remains a mystery.

    Nice haul DevilsFan. Still havn't seen any Wolverines around here. Why is everyone saying the new Walmart series has 10 figures? Maybe a figure comes with two BAF pieces.

    Someone did a closeup of the packaging, and it says "Collect all 10 Figures to Build your own (whatever size) Giant Man!"

    Nice Dev

    I saw the pic earlier and the molds do look sweet.
    Though it'll suck cause I doubt they'll be out over here :cry  and I was that Captain Britain one (and I guess Twist will want it as well)

    *Edit: Ohhh Sentinal glory as well.
    I wanna get one of those but I'm not to hot on the ones you need to get to make it up. Currently I only have FA Spidey

    Yeah, it's out there. I didn't post the pics because Marvel/Toybiz was throwing a shitfit that they were leaked/bought/sold/ebay'ed, etc.

    It's interesting that there's apparently a 10th figure and yet...whoever it is isn't even shown on the back. :peoples: 
    I know the batch of figures that snuck out weren't the final production ones, but the packaging looks to be pretty final. OTOH, maybe it's just not there. Phoenix, reg. or Dark, wasn't on the ML VI backs for some reason IIRC.

    There was a list of this wave that showed up a while back that took everybody by surprise at the time to say the least. Is that list still floating around and does it mention the 10th fig?

    Holy...


    :peoples: 

    Upper left corner..that be an ASM logo, yes? Looks like issue #301 at that. Maybe the 10th figure is a basic Spidey repack.

    Edit: Or not...the comics in those packs don't make any sense. Ant-Man still has the inexplicable Venom comic, Sentry and Havok have the kiddie SM title, Wolverine AF 15, etc. The guy in Kansas that found them, the comics were nonsensical placeholders like that.

    I found an online site that accepts preorder for them but I heard that those 9 figs may not be in the final production but it's odd how a guy manages to buy them from a store.

    It's done for mockup packaging. These were nothing more than mockups, not even finished product.

    The pallet was sent to a meeting with Walmart about the line. Somehow instead of being shipped back to Toybiz, it got shipped to a Walmart, and they put it out on the floor.

    So anyone else besides that lucky guy gets to buy them? We should be seeing some surfacing on Ebay by now.

    They were on ebay, and were taken down rather quickly. It was only 1 store that got the pallet.

    Well that's kinda lame. The guy bought and paid for them. Not his fault that some dingus at a WM in Kansas fucked up. I'd have put them on Ebay too after the truth came out. They'd probably zoom to ~$100 each easy. Marvel/TB ought to be happy for the free publicity; they couldn't have planned something better.
