Also from that CTR bit:

Q: Will the Super Hero Showdown come out?
A: Yes, some are already in the works.

Q: What happened to the Spider-Man/Kraven set for SHS?
A: The last wave did not ship.

Um, what? Why are they asking Hasbro about what happened at Toy Biz? Are they saying they bought the last bits of un-marketed TB stuff to sell themselves? Or are they talking about the mini-figs? WTF, yo?

I think that is a typo & they meant Superhero Squad those small cutesy ones.
Figures are going to be revealed tomorrow! I'm just sad that I have to wait until next year. :cry:

Man, as the pics go on, I like what I see more and more. Some of them first few figs are kinda 'Meh', but some of the latter few are pretty damned nice.

Is this Nick Fury in two versions, or him and someone else?

It looks like Nick Fury & SHIELD soldier?
I'm not liking Hulk's head at all. It looks like someone shaved his head while he was sleeping.
Hey Spider-Man & Iron Man look like they come with web & pulse effect accesories! That means Daredevil may actually have his baton! 8-O

...and uhm yeah who wants some of my showdown figures now. :shifty:

Which Hulk head don't you like? Each color looks to have a diff head, sculpted after a diff artist. The gray one looks like Tim Sale's version, which is pretty damned cool of Hasbro to do, imho.

I don't like either. The green & gray are the same. I could care less about the red one. I like the classic Hulk look.
I also like classic Thor better than new one. However I'm sure Hasbro may release that one eventually.
I prefer Thing's showdown face too.

alot of cool looking figures for sure.They shouldn't have done so many of the same characters as shs but hopefully the next waves will give us some of the lesser named people. I really like moon knight,blade, and ms. marvel with the long hair.

Wow. I almost feel embarrassed for Mattel. They're so going to lose this battle.

Holy NICE!! That Thor is just jaw dropping, so I bet its gonna be a while after they are released that I will get him, since finidng Thor toys around here is next to impossible. I only saw the Marvel Legends King Thor two, 2 Times. Both timess I didnt have enough money for him and never got him.

Moon Night is sooo sweet. Cap, Iron Man that Johnny Storm er the Human Torch fig is sooo Beautiful.

It would be nice to see Mattel learn something about this, but since they havent seen to made any changes in like their history, I am holding my breath.

Me too. Gotta say, I'm glad to see Hasbro's putting lateral hip motion in something besides Joes. These should make great kitbash fodder.

Ha, I never even noticed that was there. Is that from the series of X-Men they did in the ML line, bashed up with the rocks for the ground?
