Yep, i know...this thread is worthless without pictures...but I wanted to give a heads up

The new Marvel 3 3/4 inch figures are in there and they are excellent! Captain America, Black Panther, Iron man (there will be 35 total next year)
The new DC 3 3/4 inch figs...DC infinate Universe have some great ones as well. Bizarro, Spectre, Killer Croc
And for those who like the JLA figs...they have an exclusive bad guy pack Bane,Scarecrow,Clock King

There are some other goodies in there too...my scanner is broke or I would share

What's the articulation on the Marvel figures looking like? Last I heard they were going to be SHS style.

I take it you were in a coma for SDCC and all the hullabaloo and pics? They're gonna essentially be 25A Superdoods. There appears to be a variance in how they're engineered. I'd guess they've got a few sculptors all wanting to try out a new engineering style and they'll see which one works best and what the fans want, and then standardize them.

Here's a few pics I saved:

I didn't get to that side of the Hasbro booth and I was comatose for the next week after the con so I missed all the reports and such.

Thanks for the pics. Here's hoping the finished product is as good.

I too must have been in a coma, or the guy that posted it might have been on my foe list. Who knows?

But I do like that Punisher a lot more than the crappy marvel showdown one that I bought, and had to put a custom head on.

Any idea when the BBTS will be taking preorders?

Are the pictures newer than the ones we got on the web?

Man those are all sweet. I cannot wait to get that Thor. SOOO many great figures. The Ronin and Black Panther are nice and the accessories are real nice as well.

I just hope they aint like $8.00 to $9.00 each, that will limit my collecting them and or customizing them to. :-/

Sorry. Hasbro has said that the price point will be similar to Star Wars/Joes, so I'm guessing a minimum of $7 a figure (which is why I think the prices have been upped on Marvel Legends). I think comic packs are pretty much inevitable for these though, so if things stay true to form, expect those to clock in around 10-12 bucks. Not that they've announced any yet.

Well since Hasbro is making these & Mattel makes the DC ones I assume the same as 25th.

I can't tell you how much I like the new 'Night Force' Wolverine. I've never cared about Logan until the character was streamlined for the new X-Force. I can't wait to build a Marauder armory for that Punisher. I'll try to get every one of these figs except the variants.

I agree with you. I generally don't care that much about Wolverine toys, but that figure (and the Red Hulk series big boy version) is so cool because it looks so different than what I'm used to. And in the comics, Cyclops telling him to go kill people and hunt down Mystique? That's just plain fun.
