I knew about the first one from last week. It's Carnage (Ultimate style) with 14 points of articulation and a display of Gwen Stacy's corpse:

69.93.119.2/photosSHTC/showphoto.php?photo=2553&cat=614&page=1

I knew about She-Hulk as well. Not sure if I will get her. The legs look like they move weird. I will have to wait and see it in person:

69.93.119.2/photosSHTC/showphoto.php?photo=2656&cat=662&page=3

The third I did not know about, but I am very happy for. It's Thanos! Finally a figure of Thanos (it's sick that Marvel Select has beaten Marvel Legends to the punch) who is not only huge, but comes with a Death display:

69.93.119.2/photosSHTC/showphoto.php?photo=2552&cat=614&page=1

I don't know his articulation yet, but the sign next to him says figure.

69.93.119.2/photosSHTC/showphoto.php?photo=2561&cat=662&page=8

HOLY CRAP he comes with the Infinity Gauntlet! That alone makes him rule.

69.93.119.2/photosSHTC/showphoto.php?photo=2654&cat=662&page=3

Some of the more recent Marvel Select figures (Ultimate Thor and Dr. Doom) have been very impressive. I am hoping Thanos will be great too.

I'm going to be all over Thanos and Phoenix for sure.

I thought about posting this in the Marvel thread, but that massive ongoing saga is mostly about Toybiz figures.

That Phoenix looks great, but I'm not sure if it will have any playability.

To my knowledge MS figures usually have little no to no playability... They're more like statues, which I don't mind, they're usually already set in a desirable pose. Looks like Thanos has a few joints, though.

It's not as bad with a big guy like Thanos though...he's no Nightcrawler. I'm sure he'll have ball-joint arms and legs, calf swivel it looks like, one knee, and one elbow plus wrists and ankles and neck probably.

Nonetheless, I was like "OMFG!!" when I saw Thanos...<33

Ultimate Thor actually has really good playability. He has RA style articulation.

Marvel Select figures are Toy Biz figures. They're just not mass-market.

BTW, Thanos looks kick-ass. And She-Hulk's a con-exclusive, so seeing her in person might not be a possibility.

Marvel Select is a joint production of Toy Biz and Diamond Select Toys. Diamond Select markets and distributes them (and probably designs them, or at least helps design them), Toy Biz produces them.

I went through their site and it made no mention of Toy Biz.

I didn't see that. I tip my hat to you, sir. (I'm not wearing a hat, so you will have to imagine me in a hat, then tipping it.)
