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.
I'm assuming these are Toys R Us exclusives, like the X-Men First Class comic packs (which are still pretty readily available a year later). Magneto sounds like largely the same figure as the single pack version aside from the head, though this sounds like our first "good guy" Magneto figure. I never picked up the MU Captain America with the comic boots, which I assume is the one that will be used here, so that should be a worthwhile purchase. I'm happy to get She-Hulk in a more classic costume, though I don't understand why we need version 1,287 of brown costume Wolverine (to go with version 1,854 of yellow/blue costume Wolverine). It would have been nice to see Rogue, Captain Marvel/Photon, or Dr. Druid here instead, though TEH KIDDIEZ WANTZ WOLVERINE.

I may only be a math minor, but I'm pretty sure I counted six figures there.
