And just FYI, for any of you guys that are asking prices, all prices are negotiable. I'm sure I could hunt down market price on them or whatever, but I don't really care that much.

That Civil War triple pack I'd say $20 loose (shipping the box jacks up the shipping a lot).
Moon Knight I'd say about $18 if you want the figure as boxed, if you want it complete with the Vulture BAF piece in there I'd say 22?

Otherwise, I don't really expect more than like 16-18 bucks for any of those figures, if that, and the loose Fodder/BAF parts would literally be a few bucks, mostly to just cover the shipping. I don't care about really making a profit on this stuff, just recoup some of the money and get it out of my rapidly crowding apartment! :haw: If the price I'm thinking of is dumb, just let me know, I'm pretty flexible.


Also there may be some delay for this week as my computer died and there's a huge stack of boxes of new parts. Gonna build it tonight after work (hopefully), but on the plus side that's more boxes/packing for figures!

Edit: Oh that Wal-Mart Black Panther is brand new and still sealed. I grabbed an extra for one of you guys, if someone wants it I'd just post a pic of the receipt and we could do cost+ shipping, I mainly grabbed it in case any of you guys couldn't find one in the wild. If no one wants it by the weekend I'll just return it.

Fuzz, you said you ordered a case of the new xmen wave? How does someone go about doing that if they want a complete set? Also is that the one with Wolverine on the motorcycle?

No, it hasn't gone up yet. Whenever it does, I'll be ordering one and offloading a bunch of figures like I'm doing with the listed Lizard BAF Spidey wave. That wave is just Tiger stripe Wolverine, probably will have an Apocalypse piece and if we're lucky the cowl down neck piece, but I dunno. I will not be surprised if it has clawed fist hands on the figure and literally nothing else... they don't even need to pack in extras for people to go nuts buying them, plus it's the 2 per case.

The motorcycle Logan is like the Black Widow and Ghost Rider, will be a big set that will probably retail at $39.99.

Lots of online stores will sell you cases. I don't know how their prices compare to other places, but BBTS dot com will happily sell you a case. (Looking now, it looks like they are $160 for 8 figures, which is standard retail, though you might get duplicates.) And no, vehicles will be separate cases.

I’m absolutely buying a case of the Apocalypse wave as soon as it’s up and in turn will have Storm, Magneto, Gladiator and a second Wolverine if anybody’s interested. I want the BAF and the others. Already have SDCC Gladiator, don’t care for red/black mags, don’t care about 80s Storm.

Aphrodite

ML waves are either 6 or 7 figures now. Often in a 7 figure wave the 7th figure has no BAF pieces but that's not always the case.

If a site is selling 8 you're either getting 1 or 2 dupes. Usually this is for like $160.

6 or 7 means they're opening the cases and taking the dupe(s) out. Obviously cheaper, but you'd probably save more buying 8 and selling the dupe(s) on ebay if you cared enough.

Not every site sells every wave in 8 though, just for fun.

Same here but I'm just gonna get the 7 case, which BBTS often does so you don't need an extra. Gladiator is getting sold off for sure, probably Magneto too since I don't like that outfit. Also will be selling Multiple Man since I don't care about X-Factor.

Also they released packaged pics, looks like Wolverine comes with plain fisted hands (I've never understood this, just take the claws out. I want open hands, dammit.) And Apocalypse's arm and leg tubing.

I did forget about old man Logan. Still, putting him in the same ballpark as Iron Man seems pretty wack since Tony gets like three new armors every movie he's in and nobody was making xmen figures at all for a while there.

That one I don't have. Grabbed it online off a guy that said he had pulled the BAF. He then tried to claim that head was part of the BAF, which sucked. I ended up being the long coat Red Skull for way too much to finally have an actual Red Skull figure. :smith:

If you still want it... I dunno, $8 loose?


Maybe like 28 shipped? It's in the box and complete except I can't find the batarang, which is egregious, I'm aware. I'll keep looking for it and would have said like 30 otherwise, but yeah, I'd feel terrible if I couldn't find it. As a warning, the figure doesn't like deep dynamic poses... hence why it fell and the batarang is now lost in my living room somewhere.

I'll pass then. Thank you anyways.

It’s loving dumb that NECA charges full MSRP plus a markup when they’re selling direct to the public. The point of MSRP is that the retailer needs to get a profit after buying from the manufacturer at wholesale prices, if the manufacturer is selling directly then that eliminates the need for the retailer markup. NECA’s direct price should be less than MSRP, not more.

Yeah, sorry, I meant the gun, no line or anything ;)

I didn't see a batarang in the accessories though. I do own the standard BTAS Batman release. But I was an idiot and was baffled that it didn't bend at the waist, since I own the batmobile, and he wouldn't sit in it. He eventually did bend... via snapping in half.

Hence the desire to replace him for poses outside the car :3:
