Marvel Universe Super Hero Team Packs Wave 1

Marvel Universe Super Hero Team Packs Wave 1

will not lie, a bit disappointed...BUT can't wait to get them nonetheless.

Out of curiousity, what are you disappointed with? I'm disappointed that Wolverine uses an XMO body. Same goes for Deadpool. Glad Wolvy's uniform is accurate though.

tard rage hulk is a must for my toy shopping this season.

We are disappointed by the fact that warpath was included in that set even though he is not part of that team and that they used the worst of the two deadpool figures

kinda funny that they separated Pym and the ant for the promotion photo. Like they're separate members or something.

Its Wolverine..he looks so, I don't know.."flimsy" for lack of a better adjective? And Thor, like the Secret Wars 2 pack..I dont know..was hpoing for better sculpts now that were on Season 3.

I'm pumped, this just means i don't have to shell out $50+ for an X-force Warpath, sorry if you did!

Well I think that depends on if you like them loose or MOC..

Don't like the paint job on x-force i like the glossy silver instead.

Thats true, I rip em out the second I get em so I'm not particular.

wolverine looks so small..

That's one of the problems I have with toys of the character. He's tall, yes, but he's always hunchbacked so he looks small. Therefore, the toys are designed to make him look small.

Actually, Wolverine is NOT tall, at all.

He is 5'3".

You're just thinking of Hugh Jackman. He was tall.

yeayyyy some seller in HKG already open preoder for this wave. Just interest with that MU AVENGERS boxset, dont not care for x-factor boxset. THOR looks very cool in that boxset, really classic in his crown and hair

This is true wolverine got big when he Hugh Jackman portrayed him, and since then a lot of toys especially the animated Wolverine series, he's jacked. But oldschool comics, and jim lee style show he's short, stocky and height's not an issue when you have 6 blades that can cut through anything that comes from your hands, which matches your bone structure and an insane ability to heal so even if you did land a blow that hurt him it wouldn't be for long, doesn't have to be tall in my eyes. IMO,wolverine is badass. The figure himself looks ok, I personally liked the first wave MU wolverine xforce version, so I'll be pairing him with wartpath and deadpool, I really want that hulk, antman with ant and wasp, the thor looks the same as what I got, the iron man is nice touch though, throughback to the classics.

As Avenger fan I am psyched, I hope the do a Giant Man too. Going to miss the X Force, not big into them and have all three figs separate. Be nice if they would do some classic Avengers foes to go with them.

I know what you mean I think it's because he's an XMO figure with a new head.

He is supposed to be though, all marvel universe Wolverine figures are too tall except for Team X Wolvy.

Thought he was 5ft flat?

Thing with Thor though the head sculpt looks good but the body, unless the tolerances have decreased the hips will be tight as hell to move.

Nope, I checked with Marvel's official Wiki and some other sources and he's 5'3". I'm taller than him lol.

shall we expect variants ?...these imo are okay..Hasbro needs to dish a more flashy lineup...Ironman looks like a Werther Original candy...smh...5'0 - 5'3...same thing..lol

Woah. Pre-order... deleted. These are pieces of shit. And I don't say that often.

The Avengers is a must get set. Just something fun about having the old look and not having to search all over the place for a member of the team that is hard to find.

X-force is a pass.

Now if they would just expand this concept to villains.

The hell? For some reason I thought he was as tall as Puck...who may now be shorter than I originally thought too...

Hmm...well, technically, the X Force Wolverine here is a repaint of the XMO deluxe Wolverine but with a mask this time, and I think this mask is used on wave 13 Wolverine..IIRC. As for variants...I guess the only feasible one would be Avengers with a silver Iron Man and a gray Hulk, or X Force with a Wolverine with bigger "ears".

L.O.L.

Villains would be much appreciated. Brotherhood of Evil Mutants! Maybe a Magneto and children 3 pack, but a NEW mold for Magneto this time, not that dreaded Daredevil body ARGHHH! Magneto, Quicksilver, and Scarlet Witch. Venom, Carnage, and Spiderman(NEW SCULPT THIS TIME!). Havok, Cyclops, and Mr. Sinister.

Puck is a very short man lol. 3'6". Cripes.

Based on these reactions i'm surprised people weren't killing themselves over the TRU 3-packs that came out a while ago. That SHIELD agent figure is truly awful!
These look like good fun, the avengers stuff looks like a great representation of the comic art. X-force is a cheap way to knock-out some more figures without having to make a lot of effort. In that sense it's not a vital set but I like that scale Wolverine, he fits with my image of the guy and I really like the re-paint of Deadpool. It's nothing a decent customiser couldn't do but would be a welcome addition to my shelf. If only I get my hands on an x-force archangel!
