Marvel 3 3/4 figures discussion!

Forgive me if this thread has already been started or discussed:

I'm curious if anyone else here is interested in these Marvel figures. I guess they were announced at the SDCC and they're to be released in the spring of '09.

For those that don't know, they're 3 3/4 inch fully articulate figures, in the same vein as the new 25th anniversary G.I. Joes.

Go to marvelousnews for SDCC pictures here. And hi-res pictures here.

So far some of the figures to be release are as follows:

- Black Panther
- Bullseye
- Daredevil
- Green Goblin
- Grey Hulk
- Green Hulk
- Human Torch
- Human Torch Variant
- Modern Iron Man
- Iron Fist
- Punisher
- Ronin
- Silver Surfer
- Spider-Man
- Stealth Iron Man
- Ultimate Captain America
- X-Force Wolverine


I'm probably missing a bunch, so feel free to point out which ones.

Personally, I think these look amazing. I promised my girlfriend that after TF's, Revoltech and G.I. Joes, I would stop. It looks like I'm gonna break my promise. She's gonna kill me

Holy shi! This went COMPLETELY past me when SDCC was happening. I sooooo want Daredevil, Hulk and Ultimate Cap. They are clever too, by releasing an uncommon colored Wolverine first, everyone will buy that cause it's the first time the mold/toy will be used, then later on we will get our 2 other repaints.

Yeah, the Daredevil looks awesome, as does the Hulk, which is bigger than the 3 3/4 inch I believe, bringing it to a more realistic scale to the others which is nice.

As for Wolverine, yeah, you're right. I prefer the brown/tan suit, but I won't be able to resist buying the first one. F*cking Hasbro!

The female figures look really good too. Unlike the female G.I. Joes which looked terrible.

I just hope they get carried up here at retail.

The new DC 3 3/4" figures are out in the States and there is no sign of them ever showing up here.

Yeah, I'm worried about that too. We get the Legends figures I believe, but I'd much rather prefer these. If they don't come up here, I may have to resort to BBTS or something.

Check out hisstank.com, as they posted pics of the toys in a diorama setting. These look so cool. Here's the link.
