Giant Sized X-Men, Classic Havok and Iron Man 2020 Marvel Universe Figures
Think does it again with some great Marvel Universe figures, including an Iron Man 2020 figure and a carded Havok. The creme de la creme is, of course, the Marvel Universe Giant Size X-Men 6 pack with first appearance Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, tiger stripe Wolverine, Cyclops, and… Thunderbird! Simply too cool. Head over to the message board to thank him and see the pictures!

Clanure has started a thread on the board about the recent dry spell between news and releases on… well… just about every toy line anyone collects! Join in if you’ve noticed the dry spell too.
Masters of the Universe Classics Mer-Man sells out in under an hour, for the second time. Collectors that were shut out still mad. I’ve only been locked out of one figure so far, and I fear it’ll happen again, but some people have had worse luck than me. Note to Mattel, the e-commerce server hosting your site just can’t handle the order onslaught. The sooner the figures sell out, the more people feel rushed to rush your site, thus more of an order onslaught. Finding a new e-commerce solution might go a long way to fixing the ill-will.
X-Men Origins Wolverine Cyclops and Iceman figures are apparently hitting stores on the West Coast now. Great news for Marvel Universe fans looking to boost tiher X-Men contingent, bad news for people that hate the leg joints.
TV Shows On DVD has the Hulk-centric cover art for the next volume of Wolverine and the X-Men.
They’ve also apparently got some some-what leaked pencil art for the third volume of the original X-Men animated series DVDs.

First off, X-Men the Animated Series volume 1 and 2 are out today! They’re $17-$18 each (Best Buy, for instance, has them 2 for $35), but for those that remember paying $15 per single-episode VHS, they’re a great deal. Want to give it a taste? Marvel has episode 1 streaming along with its other video offerings.
Also, those 3.75 inch Terminator Salvation figures are hitting toy stores (or at least the Toys R Us I saw this afternoon) so go load up on T-800s to teach Wolverine that robots don’t have to be mega-sized to be deadly!
Fans of Joss Whedon’s characters may (or may not) be happy that Illyria will be visiting Bete Noire’s Fallen Angel when the title relaunches.
