    Green Scar vs. Silver Savage
    King Hulk vs. Hulkbuster Iron Man

    and 2 of the Mighty Muggs.
    Iron Man
    Lando Calrissian

    I also saw the Leia and Clone Trooper ones, but didnt get those. I want ALL of the Marvel ones though. and maybe some of the Indiana Jones ones coming out.

    It's called a "Pneumatic Mangler." I think he uses it to bash in a car door in the movie.

    1/6 scale Tumbler and Batpod are coming from Hot Toys. I really need to rethink how deep I'm going to go with this line, because it's already getting super expensive. I do wonder if the Tumbler's going to come with a Batman figure like the Powerloader did. At least I haven't ordered one of him yet ...

    My Target refuses to restock their Mighty Muggs. This is absolutely infuriating; I really want an Iron Man.

    Also, The Dark Knight Joke figure has ridiculous levels of detail. Wish I could afford something like that.

    I...haven't posted here in like a year. But i've been lurking the hell out of this toy thread. I just thought i would pop in to say i got the entirety of Marvel Mighty Muggs wave 2 today at Target, and they are amazing. If i could only have one Mighty Muggs figure, it would be this Hulk.

    Any word yet on the inevitable Transformers and GI Joe Muggs? You know it will happen.

    Oh yes finally.

    I have been looking for the Risso B&W Batman statue for a while now (a few years, I would imagine) and haven't been able to find it at a reasonable price till just recently. Found it for $50 at a comic shop that just opened up here and I don't think the dude knew what he had.

    Those Mighty Muggs things are pretty neat, but nearly twice the price here in Australia. They go for $25 each, which is currently equivalent to about $23 US. Blegh! Definitely too much for a 6 inch plastic figure.

    Edit: Wait, I thought they were $10-15 in the US? They are listing at $20+ on Amazon...

    So there have been Revoltech versions of Optimus Prime 5113J6Z64NL._SL160_AA115_.jpg and Ultra Magnus, and I knew they were making Megatron 41Kvrmd88IL._SL110_.jpg

    How come I didn't know about Starscream 51XwCmhr%2BpL._SL110_.jpg and Hot Rod/Rodimus? 51zRHbI1P2L._SL110_.jpg

    I want these so badly.

    Magnus will be the one that's hardest to get since he was an exclusive, so good you got him already.

    I don't care for them myself, because they're all based off Pat Lee's designs.

    I like the look of them, and while the fun of Transformers is actually transforming them I usually prefer the robot mode anyway. I'm surprised they made Hot Rod though, he never seemed to be that popular.

    He was a heck of a lot more popular in Japan, largely due to the fact that after the G1 series ended, the Japanese went on and made like three or four more animated series with G1 characters.

    Interesting. Back in the day I used to like him a lot. Seeing them again, I realized I didn't really like how he acted - I just thought he looked cool. Still do, really.

    The Hot Rodimus figure is pretty cool. I just got it for Father's Day. You can pose him any way you like, just like the others but he comes with a stand so you can pose him in jump kicks or flying through the air firing both guns. Very cool accessory for a great figure line. Wish they were a little cheaper though.

    It wouldn't matter, Amazon don't ship toys internationally as it turns out. I'd love to get pretty much all of the Marvel ones, and I quite like some of the Star Wars/Indiana Jones ones too.

    $25 a pop is just too much to justify though :/

    They didn't used to... I bought a bunch of Dremel stuff from Amazon recently (like a few months ago), and at the time Amazon shipped tools/toys/games etc. Now they are back to just shipping books and DVDs, no idea what prompted the change.

    The problem with Australia is that it's a small market, so there is no real drive to offer a good deal. And since the Aussie dollar has climbed to over 90 US cents, when it used to be closer to 50 cents, what used to be expensive everywhere is now dramatically cheaper overseas when compared to local prices. That's why I order my trades from Amazon, because it's cheaper having them shipped half way across the world than buying them from my LCS.

    You guys would be horrified on what I spend on postage on top of my actual books.
