Yeah, shrinking the BAF is lame. I guess I understand the motivation, and the figures are still great, but I love the BAF concept. Also a bummer that they haven't announced Bulldozer or the Wrecker (either of which would have been excellent BAF candidates) so we're at least a year away from having the Wrecking Crew, if not longer. Actually, now that I think about it, the smaller BAF means we might get Rocket Raccoon soon too!

Mysterio is quite nice. All they'd need is a new head to do Sandman, so get on that and a decent Doc Ock so I can have the original Sinister Six dammit. Guess they'd need to do Vulture too. Still, all of those are cake. DO IT !

I guess that's why TRU has MU on sale right now for $7.00 each for singles.

I hope mine gets those comic packs.

That Fantastic Futures Doom may be a repaint, but I love it.

Reminds me of that white Infinities Darth Vader, in a good way.

Plus, I don't have a Wolverine like that, so I'll take all the She Hulk I can get

I hope Wolverine is easy to find!!!! said no one. The Dr. Doom/Spidey pack looks good, despite them being repaints. Though again, same argument...Spider-Man...revolutionary!

OK, here is a run down of the Marvel panel (quoting only Universe related)
http://www.toyark.com/news/san-diego-co ... live-6054/
Next digital comic exclusive

The ONLY thing revealed as a slide...

Juggernaut Colossus, Emma Frost, & Cyclops 3 pack
I assume Cyclops will be in his modern costume because of Jug-Colossus.
Elektra & Mysterio's placards read Spring 2013. That means those 2 will join Prof X, Jubilee, & Blastaar who are delayed until the same time. It makes the wave a standard 5 figure wave. I'm assuming those who got the 3 already got early samples.
Q&A

Quote:

-any more vehicles or playsets for Marvel Universe? kids wants the Avengers mansion. They will look into it
- Movie stuff was overshipped, this is why Marvel Universe was harder to find recently not enough shelf space
- Fing Fang Foom on hold until they can figure out how to offer it
- more larger scaled figures? Stay tuned
- Marvel Universe should be easier to find again from now on

Marvel Universe isn't ending at all but has been seriously delayed instead. :-/

Yup. Though the up close pics make it look less great. I'm not sure how I feel about that story anyway. Great candidate for the sub exclusive though.

It is a repainted XMOW Sabretooth with new head & hands.
You know they should have made that baby Hope. Hmmm maybe it was Hope at one time.

That's probably my favorite Wolverine story ever. So, now I'm gonna get hypocritical...yeah, it's Wolverine, but I'm bummed that I won't own it haha.
