The Professor X, Jubilee, Blastaar wave will be wave 1 of 2013. I hope I can find these at retail (unlike the last two waves I got online) so I don't have to pay $45 on spams. The wave that was supposed to come before this better be wave two. For anyone who forgot, it was scheduled to be Puck!!!, Angel, Nighthawk, Hercules, and Nova.

And why are there only going to be 3 figures in one wave? They better not be slacking.

I just hope the upcoming Iron Man, Thor, and Cap movies don't have their own figure lines. The Walmarts in my area already stopped carrying MU to make room for Amazing Spider-Man and Avengers, which don't sell well around here.

Yes, it's really quite annoying seeing shelves fully stocked with all the crappy gimmicky movie figures, yet it's always slim pickins when it comes to MU. It's not just Wal-Mart that has that issue, TRU is ridiculous as well. And it's really incredibly mind boggling, because the movie sh*t does not sell and is completely worthless yet is always fully stocked, but MU which is what everybody wants and collects gets the shaft. I don't get it. I just don't get it...

seriously, I don't know how the movie lines survive, all of those figures are haunting shelves in every toy store I go to, yet the MU figures are rarely ever restocked

I hate Hasbro's distro even more than I hate Mattel's. Finding those McQuarrie concept Star Wars figure was ridiculous, and then Hasbro turned around and re-released them all in 2 box sets. With rumors of Disney trying to acquire Hasbro now, I hope it happens, because Hasbro can't be any crappier in my eye.

Spider-Man and Avengers Assemble animated style figures announced for 2013. So much for any retail store stocking MU.

Here's the SA "Classic" Falcon from the MU 2-Pack I picked up Friday...It came with a pretty crappy Captain America. Falcon - This is the Falcon I grew up with, but I hate the MU Falcon wings design (Especially how they look on this era's figure)

Not quite MU, but I picked up Sif from the Thor line at TJ Maxx today for $4.99. Had never seen her in store before. They also had the cartoon colors Sentinel again for $30.

Thanks for mentioning Faclon, PJ. I wanted to give everyone a heads up that the Cap/Falcon and Surfer/Strange packs were showing up at retail, but didn't want to triple post. Professor X, Jubilee, and Blastaar have been seen at Walmarts on both coasts.

I finally found Kraven and Beast at Target (MU & ML BOGO 50% until 11/21). About 5 minutes after opening, I snapped the peg in Beast's foot. Beast has the side to side foot articulation but do they also rotate? Not quite MU, but I picked up Sif from the Thor line at TJ Maxx today for $4.99. Had never seen her in store before. They also had the cartoon colors Sentinel again for $30. TJ Max is the only store where I've seen Sif. I have also been picking up Iron Man figs that I've never anywhere else.

Every time I go to Walmart it's just the crappy Amazing Spiderman figures and Avengers movie figures. No Marvel Universe at all.
Then I go to Target and it's a completely different story. They had LOADS of them, so many to choose from. I ended up getting a Spiderman and Juggernaut with the helmet on. I don't keep up with the line much, but I thought it was random to see a Juggernaut there, I thought he was released a long time ago with the helmet on. They probably released another one, but like I said i'm not too up to date with the line.
Oh and they were only 7.99 each. Score.

Juggernaut was released again in cases of the Beast wave.

Randomly found a Kraven today. So far my small collection is:
Spiderman Kraven Green Goblin Juggernaut Wolverine Captain Britain Toxic Blast Venom from the Spiderman Series
At first I liked the Wolverine figure, but now I hate it. The ball joints are way too stiff and its hard to move his legs. I mostly collect Spiderman villains and such, so all i'm looking to get is Hobgoblin and the Carnage from the Spiderman series and i'll be happy with that. Might add a Punisher or Iron Man, since I see them everywhere.

The Future Foundation Spidey in this set is very detailed, especially for the scale.
