It is the same mold as SDCC suit Destro.

CTR has hinted what the MU SDCC exclusive may be...

Good, bad, and the ugly is really a good definition of what the first half of 2012 is looking like. Some catching up and some newer stuffs fill out this review of Loki, ASM Lizard, Scorpion and Wonder Man/Quicksilver Comic pack.

Enjoy.

Wow, random batch of stuff! I love reviews like this; gives a good look of the various flavors out there right now.

Anyway, I'm surprised at the good scores for Scorpion and Loki! They weren't even on my radar honestly, but seeing them in your reviews have changed my opinon. 'Course I won't be able to find that Scorpion, but I may pick up Loki now.

The movie Lizard is kinda crazy...sadly I want him for that head; I wana customize some freak for G.I. Joes. Is his head on the usual ball joint? Will it fit on a joe body?

Oh, and LOL at the comic Lizard pic. Man, I didn't know the comic Lizard figure was SO huge! That is awesome! Sadly though, another one I ain't gona find.
OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

Scorpion completely shocked me as I had pretty well given up on him until after the spidey movie had died down but there he was just sitting in the store like he had been there forever (PS the store I found him in was the same store I keep finding oddball cool finds for years but also is very incosistant in shipments).

The movie Lizard is kinda crazy...sadly I want him for that head; I wana customize some freak for G.I. Joes. Is his head on the usual ball joint? Will it fit on a joe body?


Ball joint yes, fit joe, maybe, I honestly haven't tried.

Oh, and LOL at the comic Lizard pic. Man, I didn't know the comic Lizard figure was SO huge! That is awesome! Sadly though, another one I ain't gona find.


Yeah he is huge, especially when you compare him to the spidey in that line, it's an insane size (like bigger than MU hulk if scaled up). I do like him though.

Ha! The G.I. Joe movie vehicle drivers are just as bad as the Batman figures. They both have the same articulation.
I only saw Scorpion a handful of times. I got some that I traded away. Otherwise I dislike his look.
Loki seems to have disappeared around here. I will just get the repainted King Loki.

Looks like this will be replacing the Giant X-Men set at TRU...

It was found in China so it isn't stateside yet.
Just like the Giant X-Men set they also might show up at Disney stores.

Well the speculation is that could be the variant set. I believe the Giant X-Men variants only showed up at Disney stores.

We've uncovered two new Marvel Universe comic packs, both of which are inspired by the original Marc Silvestri drawn The X-Men Vs. The Avenger limited series. The first pack will include a kit-bashed Magneto made up from the body of the AIM Soldier, Doctor Doom's cape, and the Adam Warlock head and a repacked Captain America. The second set will feature a redeco of the upcoming She-Hulk (in her purple Avengers costume) and a kit-bashed Wolverine which is essentially the X-Men Origins Brown Costumed Wolvie with the Wolverine Vs. Silver Samurai head and hands. THese sets will be limited to 40, 000 pieces and when they hit the shelves next month, they will go for $16.99.

The only one I am interested in is She-Hulk.

We have received some cool information about the Marvel Universe X-Factor boxed set. This five figure set, including Mr. Sinister, Jean Grey, Angel, Cyclops, Apocalypse, and Iceman, will be exclusive to Toys "R" Us and will hit shelves on July 1st with a suggested retail price of $34.99. The set will be limited to 20,000 pieces worldwide. for those speculating about the Cyclops figure, it will be based on the same body as the Guardian figure with the head and hands seen on the classic Cyclops figure.
