@Thomas B: If that's true then they screwed up. All the previous pics I saw indicated that was Pym's Goliath outfit from around Avengers 26 (which was, in fact, yellow and blue) and not his Giant Man outfit from Avengers 2-16. Did it look like he was wearing some kind of goggles, or were his eyes exposed?

@Nik – I don't think you missed out on Gentleman Ghost. I had a similar experience, where I went to TRU, and found a Vigilante along with some wave 9. I tweeted about it, and @OAFE told me that there have been reported instances of Vigilante being shipped along with wave 9 for some reason. So, unless you run across Mr. Terrific or Commander Steel, you probably are experiencing this weird anomaly, and haven't missed out on the other wave 8 figures.

@Paul: Well, I prefer to have my figures in action poses, so it bothers me.

"As for Black Canary, I think the fishnets do look good, but the trade off is that you end up with a figure of one of the best female hand to hand fighters in the DCU who can’t be posed doing a proper kick."

Yeah, that's not really a problem with the wife, considering she's not going to be actually playing with her or posing her in any other stance than the one in the picture.

If I'd known you were having trouble finding the second series of Secret Wars packs, I could have grabbed them for you. They're rather plentiful here.

I've seen the normal MU two-packs a lot, but I don't buy MU. I haven't seen a new DCUC figure at a local Target/Walmart since I found the 5-pack at Walmart more than a month ago. My local DCUC pegs are stuffed with Cyborg and leftovers from wave 4 or 6.

I saw the skrull pack and I passed, but uh didn't realize it was going for so much. I would have picked it up for someone if I'd known.

@Paul: Sir Paul, I'm wondering if you seen the Skrull Big Guy 2-pack and the Giant Man 2-pack I think one has Bucky Cap'n and the other has another ironman, If you haven't I can get it for you.

Edit: So I looked on Ebay and there running for 100, for both. I'm wondering how much to begin with since i didnt bother to check. And the Giant man I found was red and blue not yellow…Variant?
