Also saw the X-Jet (sorry, no picture).
Anyone know if Wolverine is actually shorter than the others? Stupid, over-kill packaging doesn't allow for side-by-side analysis. In hand, he looks to have no neck.

There’s an Epic Heroes Doc Ock???

Thanks, Goldbug. I don't mind if Target get's stuck with extras. Just a better chance I'll find one on clearance.

Thanks. Looks like Otto doesn't have the same amount of articulation the other figures under the Epic Heroes umbrella possess. (Why??)

Maybe it has to do with the Web Splashers line/gimmick

For a gimmick that relies mainly on a separate backpack piece, that shouldn't be the case--I mean, the Spider-Man from that subline is a repaint of the regular version, full articulation and all.

Right, Spiderman is a repaint. That mold has been made and paid for.

Doc Ock is a new mold created for this gimmick like with his budget being tied to making that backpack. So they had to cut the articulation.

Got the X-Men ‘97 Team Jet with Storm today.

The figure is pretty good, only change I’d have made was a softgoods cape for better posing.

The jet itself is a decent little vehicle. I could see Joe customizers making a ‘Mk II’ version of the 1990 Cobra Hurricane with some clever repainting.

*Update 8/13/23*
Added Cyclops, Rogue, and Wolverine as of today. Fingers crossed Gambit will have a standalone release outside the Target pack.

Thanks for the pictures, RabbitofSeville.
Looks like Wolverine is short enough that I'll pick one up next trip. :-D

Just be wary in case a salesperson tells you:

“I am sorry, we are out of wolverines. Would you accept a badger in its place?”

I thought September but that is almost over.

Finally picked up some of the single-packed 'Mech Strike Mechasaurs' figures, Iron Man and Thor.

I can take or leave the little dino-weapons, but...

Why no cape for Thor? Or even an additional accessory remotely resembling Mjlonir?

Maybe cut the tail off the dino thing?
