    The "I'm Looking For" Thread

    Looking for the Target exclusive Outback Storm if anybody is still seeing her around!

    Has Outback Storm come and gone at Target? I held off on preordering cause I was in a no-buy period, and it looks like I might have missed the boat completely. Anybody still seeing her in stores?

    Marvel Legends Two-Packs

    If they are set on making 90s versions of the Avengers A-team, these feels like a perfect list of companions to pack them in with. "Hostage pack", I know, but the reality is that Deathry and Cybermancer aren't going to be big movers on their own, and I'd rather have them some way than not at all.

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    This is honestly how I feel about some other higher-end brands in general. Mezco Dr. Doom was what, $150? Loaded with accessories for sure, but I'd be happier losing several of the extras and paying $100 for a fantastic, iconic Dr. Doom. I like the *idea* of a premium subline within ML - there...

    Looks like a balljoint waist on Hulk. Happy to see that, at least!

    Marvel Legends Two-Packs

    This continues to confuse me about how Hasbro operates. If they are planning to make a few more costumes from this era (as is rumored with Scarlet Witch/Vision) why not at least announce it closer to the release of this set? I get spreading out the super popular teams/looks that you know people...

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    I like that Deadpool doesn't even rank in people's recollection of the Max line. As probably he shouldn't given the lackluster execution. Spidey is great but not sure he's worth the Max price, I have Hulk but haven't opened him yet, and I didn't bother with Deadpool. Thor is the first one that...

    Marvel Legends Two-Packs

    Hasbro's practices around 2-packs is not great, but it's a stretch to call this anything like a hostage pack. It's two Avengers from the same era wearing complementary looks, and Black Widow is way more popular and in demand than Quicksilver in general - and personally, I haven't seen any great...

    One A Day 2.0 Day #371 - Ulysses Bloodstone

    I'd definitely get her, with a preference for her 90s "Revanche" costume.

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    I think Norm and Reefer Shark had the right idea for a potential Max Punisher - load him out with all the options for multiple looks - swappable black and white boots and gloves, removable vests, a load of head sculpts, removable holsters, and a wired trench coat. A regular figure with a ton of...

    One A Day 2.0 Day #371 - Ulysses Bloodstone

    I'd be in for this - very cool look. Gimme that white suit/black trench combo.

    General Marvel Legends

    Would it be unusual for them to reveal new MCU figures at a con like this, with a late Friday evening (US time) preorder drop?

    RESULTS ARE IN! The Official Articulated Thoughts 2025 Top 10 Poll

    Excited to see some new faces break the top 10 this year! Robbie was the only one off my list that's been made since the last vote, but I also tend to vote strategically - I'd rather throw a vote to Fat Cobra instead of running up the winning score for Executioner. I'm thinking Talisman might...

    In for Luna as well due to her comic appearances. The rest aren't for me, though I am curious how well Moon Knight and Punisher articulate with those designs.

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    Mafex Gambit was what finally turned me on to wired cloth goods after years of rejecting them. I'm a convert now, though I can't afford to upgrade every single caped figure with a $20-30 accessory. Gotta learn myself some sewing skills.

    ML Preorders and Fanstreams

    I want a new Guardian cause they blew it on the paint on the Wendigo wave one - the promo paint was glorious but sucked on the actual figure. Upgrade the body and paint him properly and I'm in. Keep his grumpy headsculpt, Mac was always a bit of an ass.

    I'm really stoked for Max Thor. Only complaint is I wish they'd done a straight up Coipel likeness, but I know ML is mostly allergic to that.

    One A Day 2.0 Day #371 - Ulysses Bloodstone

    Yes and hell yes. Exactly what I want out of ML.

    Marvel Legends Gamerverse

    Finally got Marvel Cosmic Invasion in the mail - a Christmas gift from my wife, but I'm stubborn and wanted to wait for the physical release. Haven't played it yet but I'd like to reiterate that this seems as good a reason as any to get new figures of Annihilus, Phyla-Vell, Beta Ray Bill, hippie...

    General Marvel Legends

    I'm optimistic that Cypher and Cannonball will be on separate bodies. Cannonball will come with the blast effect from the X-Force release with swappable legs, and Cypher will come with that Warlock skateboard from that one image and a QR code for a free month of Rosetta Stone. C'moooon, Hasbro!

    Magic the Gathering Legends

    Probably one of my favorite 2025 figures. So much love for this obscure Stargod design!

    One A Day 2.0 Day #371 - Ulysses Bloodstone

    Absolutely yes to Steel Serpent! I'd buy the classic look, but this is a rare case where I absolutely prefer the modern outfit. Immortal Iron Fist is an all-time favorite, and the look Davos has there is 100 times better than his classic look - both on its own and as an antagonist standing next...

    Significantly higher manufacturing costs (labor), rising materials costs, higher licensing fees, unfettered corporate greed. Just a guess.

    100%, and that's a great comparison. There are other non-articulation things about Marrina that are an improvement over that Carol, but the articulation comparison is a shame. Proper torso articulation and butterflies should be mandatory on every figure barring something in the design that...

    One A Day 2.0 Day #371 - Ulysses Bloodstone

    Definitely in for the Runaways! I'm surprised most of the group haven't gotten proper superhero looks after all these years (at least, as far as I know they haven't - I could be mistaken).
