hey I was wondering if someone could help me out with a question, I'm new to the Marvel Universe collecting, just picked up Captain America & Red Skull from the Captain America movie series, my question is are these figures just like the Marvel Universe ones in terms of their leg articulation because I can't really move their legs up, only to the sides
I have been doing some looking online over the past few days at some of Marvel Universe figures and they look awesome and I wanna get back in the game of collecting some Marvel figures because I used to be addicted when I was a kid and I wanna restart a collection of my favorites so if anyone can help with whether or not the leg articulation is the same, thatd be great

The MU have a different styled hips and do move forward. As for the Captain America figures their legs move forward and backwards as well, but you have to rotate the upper hip piece so the hinge is facing that way you want to move it. And some of them seem to be stuck when you first open them.

For anyone interested, I picked up 2 Apocalypse and a Cyclops at the store. I am in need of Lizard and Scorpion from the Spiderman Series, Regular Vision, and Red Skull and Crossbones from the Cpt. America Series. I will also sell them.

I am not sure where to ask this so I will start here. I just started collecting Marvel Universe and the selection in my area is slim at best. Two Walmarts I have been to don't even have pegs up right now. So, does anyone know a good place to buy on-line? I am looking to start pre-ordering because I don't expect to find new figures anytime soon. Has anyone ordered from spam before? They seem a little more expensive but look to have a great selection.

Picked up the 12' frost giant with Loki today. It's probably the best marvel figure ever made!

Hey guys, new to marvel collecting. I was just wondering are marvel toys worth a lot of money later on in life? I was wondering whetherr to keep them moc or open them Toy Biz Marvel from the 90s are near worthless Some Toy Biz Marvel Legends are worth a lot like Deadpool and Juggernaut Hasbro Wal Mart Exclusive MLs are worth money Some hard to find Marvel Universe like Cable, Vision and Sunfire are worth money

has anyone found Deadpool/Taskmaster at retail yet? I found the Silver Samurai/Wolverine pack but not the other and I'm pretty sure they're from the same wave, also has anyone seen Cable anywhere? I have found 1st appearance Wolverine & Gladiator but none of the other 3 (Apocalypse, Cyclops & Cable)

I've seen Cable at Target...but I passed in favor of Cyclops. They also had the wave at WalMart.

So far I have seen at least thirty of the Wolverine from that series and two of the Gladiator and that is it. It is good to see that Hasbro accurately forecasted the demand for that version of Wolverine.

i want Cable really bad but he his upwards of 25 bucks pretty much everywhere online, I am new to the new line (literally within the last 2 weeks but have bought a lot of stuff already) so my question is was this line with Cable the most recent to hit stores?
is it still possible that stores haven't gotten that wave in yet? I wouldnt want to spend a lot of money and then find it in stores a few days later

I think it's the most recent wave. I've only started seeing it within the last 2 weeks.

I saw 2 of the Deadpool/Taskmaster packs at my local Wal-Mart about 3 weeks ago, but I didn't have any money left that day so I hid them. I went back the next day to pick one up and they were gone, and I have yet to see another one. As for Cable, I saw everyone of the latest wave yesterday at Wal-Mart (including 2 Apocalypse), but no sight of Cable, who I want really bad, but only if it comes with Hope. I'm guessing one of the employees grabbed him since it looked like the case had just been stocked.

The Cable has a front plate that is changeable so it can be with or without Hope. I found the wave, which is the most recent, but just sold my Cable Last week. I have 2 Apocalypse and a Cyclops if anyone is interested.
