Man, I’m so ready for this line. You know how much I want each and everyone of ‘em, plus the 2pks. Do me a favor bro, if you can put a set or what ever is available, thrown it on layaway for me, I would be forever grateful, my man.
Thanks bro,
Rom

UPDATE: The WM Wave is out!! See first post!

Nice Black Knight JoMiHa that you have there on Ebay. The only thing missing is the horse. Thanks for the heads up on the Walmart Wave. The only problem is i don’t live in “Tornado alley” Tennessee nor Kentucky. I live in California where we get everything LAST. It’s nice to see you guys have each others back. Big Mike is a man of his word so whatever you need BM let me know and i will send it your way. Like JoMiHa said “you’ve done a lot for him” so it’s the least we can do for you big guy! Funny thing is you guys will get them b4 i will. I just need Sentry and Thor from the Giant-Man set. I heard from an uninformed Fwoosher that these figures (the Walmart Wave) will be flooded at all Walmarts. Somehow i beg to differ. Anyways guys.....happy hunting!

Thanks, Black Bolt! No problem about the heads up- I know this is one of the most anticipated waves in a looong time. We’ll be sure to keep an eye out for you too. We’re all about helping the fellow collector ‘round these parts.

That’s what i’m talking about!

Man, I’ve been combing the Wal-Marts by me, but no luck yet. I’m heading out to Houston this week, so if anyplace is going to have ‘em it’ll be there. Don’t worry guys, if I find the treasure, I’ll stash ‘em on layaway for y’all. So, keep the fingers crossed, b/c I’m on the hunt. And, I hungry like the wolf, ok, that last part was pretty corny

I haven’t seen anything either, but I have a friend who is store manager of a WM and I am going to have him run the SKU on the two packs and see if they have them.
Posted: 24 April 2006 11:28 PM
Go get’em Big Mike. Wolf down those figs bro because they will be making their way to the pegs. I already see them on Ebay. I will bid if the price is right. The price of the 2-packs are gonna be priced at $14.99 each. Marvel Icons i don’t know yet but i want them all. All i say! Ya know what the funny thing is? It’s when those freakin frakin Scalpers start their mission of mass destruction. They will own Walmart the way they owned Toy’s R Us. Let the battle begin!>>>

No word yet? Nothing here the last time I looked. But I so loathe going into Wal-Mart that I haven’t looked the last 2 days. Going to take a trip Monday morning. I’ll let y’all know if I find them.
On a related note- ML 13 is shipping out from online retailers like The Outer Reaches. Yes, they are shipping out this week!!! Ugh.... too .... much....ML goodness!!!

The Wal*Mart Wave has finally hit here in California. These figures are not located in the Marvel Legends section of the store. This Wal*Mart had them in a display 4 sided cardboard box in the center aisle. One side has the Giant Man figures, the other side has the 2-packs, the other Young Avengers/Monster box sets, on the other side is the Master works sets. I believe all Wal*Marts will have this similar display model, so don’t go directly to the Action Figure section. I don’t know what the case count was, but when i got there i can tell you what was left. (1)Sentry (1)Captain Britain (2)Ant Man (2) Havok (1)AOA Sebretooth. Kitty Pryde, Thor, Warbird, AOA Wolverine all gone. No variants. 2-packs: Captain America vs Red Skull(4), Kingpin vs Daredevil(3), Hulk vs Leader(3). No variants. 4 to 5 Young Avengers and Monsters box sets each. About a dozen Master Works sets. The Captain America vs Red Skull sets were badly painted as well as the Hulk vs Leader. I must say this Hulk is huge....almost 8”. Sebretooth and Captain Britain were poorly painted as well. The over all quality of these figures, to me, seems to be below the high standards that we’re used to seeing from ToyBiz. That’s just my opinion. You guys be the judge when they come your way. BB
