Toyark.com board members boombatty and Kluster Bombs have reported sightings of the single carded Colossus from the X-Men Origins Wolverine line! This long awaited release comes with a large hammer for Colossus to wield.
Unlike the Colossus from the deluxe pack with Wolverine(unmasked in Astonishing X-Men costume), this Colossus has full articulation! Click on the title bar to see more images by Kluster Bombs!
Hi all, I happen to be in the Chester County (Rt. 322), PA Wally World on Sunday and picked up two (one to customize) of the Wolverine XM Origins: Colossus figures so I guess they are out. The Wally World computer didn't have them listed though so I had to go pull a tag from another figure which may mean it was a mistake they were out.
Thought I'd let the MU/Wolvie hunters know.
By the way, the figure sucks compared to the SHS version. It is very short and looks more like Marvel's Hammerhead gangster guy. If you can get the SHS version I'd recommend it.
How's the height compared to MU Hulk?
Great find! Any pics?
I found him Wally on friday. Here are some pics with some MU.
Damn. It's too bad he is so short. But he still looks pretty bad ass. I'll be on the lookout for him now.
Wow. He should be taller than sabertooth. Bummer, I was really wanting that fig. There is always hope for him to be included in the MU Secret Wars line.
On a semi-related note, is the Blob/Sabretooth 2-pack in stores yet? I haven't found it anywhere.
Hmmmm, shortness aside he's really not a bad figure. I'll still pick him up as a placeholder for a better version in the future, that is if there is one.
I like this one. Will definitely pick it up when I see it.
Anyone know if the head is replaceable with the two pack XMO colossus one?
I saw the sculptor's prototype pic: Paul Harding Studios: Colossus
Its very nice indeed. I think it could have been 1/4 taller but maybe he was under size restrictions from line management. If the eyes weren't painted so dark, I think it would have been alot better looking. Still going to try to find one though.
Oh, and the hammer should have been a lamp post or I-beam (like the forthcoming Luke Cage's).
shs? sorry new to collecting online
You can find some more info on them at http://www.toymania.com/columns/spot...showgame.shtml
Not to be confused with Superhero Squad which is a current line Hasbro started in 2006 in which the figures are about 2" tall and look child-like.
You just have to guess the context in which SHS is used
well it'd help if we refered to the other SHS as Squadies from now on...
Like the toon that premiered recently did.
Oucheth FTW!

Caught it Monday night. It's on from 2 to 3 pm Central time tomorrow and then again Sat. morning. It's pretty good all things considered. Though they really "generalized" all the characters personalities.

Toybiz changed the name to Marvel Legends Showdown after the first initial wave of figures.
