just seen these today and im pretty surprised by how nice they looked. they're 4" and the likeness are pretty good. im not a big mib fan but i was looking at these with customizing in mind. to get mass retail 4" figs in suits is fantastic and it means trying not to hunt down sdcc destro's every time i want to make a custom

I wonder if the articulation is as bad as the new Pirates figures Jakks made?
Swivel shoulders/hips and hinge elbows/knees need to go away. I need articulation that allows J to get giggy with it

I will definitely pick those up. 4" suited figures are a must.

these are going to be so good for agent smith, pulp fiction, hitman and so many more customs, i cant wait and hope like shogi said the articulation is better than potc

Anyone check out these MIB 3 toys? look like great bases for some suited customs. Looking forward to the inevitable summer movie over stock of these guys!

As I mentioned in the thread this morning discussing the exact same thing, I hope Jakks does better than they did with the Pirates figures. I'm not a fan of cut swivel and pin/hinge joints.
Hell, unknown Zazzle did a better job with the Pirates figures than Jakks

Jakks made the Suited A-Team Face... and that Figure is great...hopefully these will be of the same size and caliber...and we have a great base for secret Servie agents for the president, real life MIB, zombies like some one mentioned.. o yeah

Yeah, anyone with any timeframe for these? Gotta pick up some for customs. One definitely for my Norman Osborn head since with the way MU is going it may be next year before Prof. X sees retail LOL.

Should be soon I would think. I don't imagine these are as tightly under wraps as a new Star Wars line would be so hopefully there is no hard street date and when stores get them then they put them out.

I'm going to use Tommy Lee Jones' head for a Gen. Flag custom, and Will Smith's head for an Alpine custom. I'm also going to buy a bunch of them so that I can make my own Secret Service. Yeah, that will be the bomb.

I plan to buy a bunch too. There are a bunch of customs I would like to do with figures wearing suits. I would have bought the shit out of the Faceman figure from The A-Team line but those only showed up at a Target around here and they only had one. I also just like Men In Black so I'll buy a set to keep intact as well.

Ent. Earth has them listed as March. They will probably only be at at TRU and online. I doubt WM will carry them. Target "maybe".

From the pics I've seen at TNI, I already know I'll get one.
As for how many I'll get will depend on my reaction when I see them in person.

03-13-2012, 08:53 PM
I'll be buying about.....thirty. So many customs to make with those suits.
gyrapados
03-13-2012, 09:17 PM
Well I think two customs are obligatory from the MIB3 J and K figures: extensive enterprises Xamot and Tomax.
If customizers don't make those, then they should be ashamed of themselves.
JediKnutt
03-13-2012, 09:31 PM
I have a few....Class A...customs in mind. Yep, need about thirty.

The preorders are up at BBTS for these. The only problem,they don't know the figure count for each case. It is possible you could get one, K and one J and five of the weird worm guy.

They look boxy and disproportionate, but a poorly tailored suit would do that to any man.

Went hunting today and found the new 3.75 MIB 3 figures. I have been looking forward to these since they were announced. In my Joeverse The President is Bruce Wayne and until now the dio I had set up I used the Renegades fiugres as the special Presidential Guard. Also in my Joeverse the President has rides around in a Escalade mostly due to the fact I cant find a 1:18th scale limo. The MIB guys look great next to the joe and other same scale figures. I kept Agent O'Hara on the Presidential team as she carries the "football" everywhere the President go. I gotta say I love the MIB 3 guys and have plans for customs when I find more of them.

They are sweet. The suit jackets are a soft plastic giving a wide range of motion. Also all it takes is a exacto and a little cut to "unbutton" the jacket and slip it off. Good articulation. The heads will take work to swap since Jakks makes these and they use the WWE/UFC 3.75 style joints to attach the head. I already have a idea for a CIA Duke figure from the joe comic relaunch years ago.(cant remember what company put out the comic). I love these guys and have now made a list of customs that I am planning. BTW, I found these at TRU. I called Jakks a week ago and they told me that Target and TRU would carrying these but not Walmart.

it would take some work but I dont see why you couldnt. They would have to be glued and supported since the neck joint is different than joes.

So the MIB heads won't fit onto Joe torsos? That's a shame... that Will Smith in sunglasses could work well for "Cool Breeze".

Wow, they have some broad shoulders...
Gungho-joe
04-19-2012, 04:03 PM
the shoulders do take away a little from the figure but overall I like them very much.

Were they $10.99 each? Would love a handful, but not at that price.

nope they were a bargain price of $9.99. Way to pricey but I couldnt help myself. I bought the deluxe figs for my 2 boys.

I saw these late last week at my local TRU. In person they look OK and could be used for filling in a diorama or something. They didn't seem as bulky in real life as they do in pics.

Since toysrus is the only place I've seen them I think it may be a while before they come down in price. Maybe when them movie hits they'll start rolling into walmarts and targets- that's probably the only chance to grab a bunch of agents on clearance

These are like the A-Team figures, TRU has them now and I don't see Target picking these up. And I know Walmart won't have them the way they keep shrinking their toy aisles.

They'll be marked up to 12.99 right before moving to the clearance section and getting a price drop to $10.00 That seems to be the toysRus way of doing things around here :)
