Found one of those sweet fire escape shelves at Hobby Lobby and it was 50% off since they're getting rid of the spring stuff. Thanks to Kollector_Kombat for posting pictures of his shelf. How much was it? I picked it up and it was priced 50 bucks. With a coupon I got it for 30 and some change. Also sorry for not posting the pic, was watching the basketball game.

How much was it? It was $30, because they were doing 1/2 off the spring/garden stuff. One store I stopped at didn't have them, but the 2nd one I stopped at had 3 left.

Found most of the Homecoming wave at Walmart last night. They had everyone except for Moon Knight and Cosmic Spidey. I only picked up Tombstone for my Spidey shelf though.
I have to admit, I'm more than a little miffed at how they split Vulture up. There was literally no reason that the three HC figures couldn't have completed the wing rig. It feels like a ridiculous cash grab to me, and I won't buy a $140 Vulture, nor will I pay $20 for a useless Vulture figure with no wings.
Hug it.
Also saw one lone Rocket at TRU today as well. None of the rest of the wave, so no Nebula for me yet.

For those looking for the Homecoming figures, my Walmart got in one of those cardboard endcap displays with the Legends, some masks, and some Nerf web shooters on it as well.
Check both ends of each aisle because the one I found them at had the endcap on the back end of the aisle for some reason.

I wanted the web wing suit spidey too, but remembered were getting a 2pack with Iron Man and a Tom Holland head. I prefer to get unmasked MCU head when possible. ![](http://news.toyark.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2017/02/Toy-Fair-2017-Hasbro-Marvel-043.jpg)

Seems like a lot of people are unhappy with the BAW Vulture. Completely understandable too. Is kind of a gimmick thing and Major pain in the ass. I bought Vulture it sucks I can't really be happy with posing him without his wings. That IS what makes him Vulture IMO. I think it's supposed to be a one time thing though if I'm correct, Hasbro may have even said that themselves.
Anyway, might as well shoot, if anyone's looking to trade off some of their pieces I'd be happy to have 'em. Just need the pieces from the Tech Suit, Homemade Suit, and Cosmic Spideys. I'm pretty content with the Civil War version I've got no need in picking up the others.
I wish they'd cool it with all the Spideys too. I know they're going for a Spider-Verse thing but damn, I don't want every single Spider-Man who's ever appeared. Cool for some collecters but not I. :-p

The one WalMart in front of T0y W!z's warehouse had that display last week all that was left were the masks. I haven't seen anything else at that store or anything at all at the Super WalMart.

It could easily be 4 every time, but then 3 figures rot. If it seems like a cash grab, everything in life is a cash grab. EVERYTHING.

It could easily be 4 every time, but then 3 figures rot. If it seems like a cash grab, everything in life is a cash grab. EVERYTHING. For a normal BAF, yes, you're right. You'd have to buy each figure to make the extra figure. It's a BONUS for buying the whole wave. In this case they're selling a figure without wings for whom the entire selling point is that he flies...FORCING you to buy the entire wave lest you have an utterly useless figure. It wasn't so hard for them to sell Falcon for $20 was it? Nope. It also isn't hard for them to stick figures into a wave with no BAF parts. They've done that several times. All you have to do is make sure the figures are in demand enough that they won't sit. The biggest dick move of all is splitting the wings up the way they did. The pieces are essentially identical but you have to buy six figures to make two wings. If they wanted Vulture to be the BAF, then fine. Split the figure up the way they always do. They could have put two arms, two legs, the head/torso, and the wings in six separate figures and keep it the way they always do. If you don't see how this is next level douchebaggery, then I can't help you.

Hell I think its stupid you have to buy comic figures to build MCU BAFs. The way they did International Hulkbuster and Giant Man waves was perfect.
Im fine with the Xmen waves and the Dr Strange wave as those were mostly or all comic sets with comic BAFs.
Either do the whole wave comic or MCU to build the figure or like LastDude said have it be wings but only with the MCU figures.
Mantis is the same. Rocket Gamora and Nebula are enough, but you could do Star Lord too even though its the 3rd MCU version. Head, Torso, Legs, Arms. Or head/torso, arms, legs. Done. No golden ox, no blue predator, no Adam Warlock unless you wanted him.
