Yeah, the Avengers figures are $9.99 each at TRU. I wonder how much they'll go for at WM and Target? By the way, has anyone seen a Storm and Psylocke recently? Still looking for both.

Me! Airtight!
As for the Avengers figs, I picked up Cap tonight at the Frisco TRU. Really nice fig and would be one of my all time favorites if... - they installed his belt correctly. mine is off-set. - added ball jointed ankles (or at least swivel) - added swivel wrists - removed the holster. I have saved a bunch of stills from the set of Avengers and NONE shows Cap with a pistol nor a holster. - added the pivot/ball joint torso joint or my preferred swivel waist. The sculpt is very nice and the color is good. I like the head sculpt and paint job on mine a lot. If later releases of Cap have the ankle and wrist joints, I may do some part swapping. Here's hoping they color match any future releases. My FAVORITE part on this fig is the return of the 90 degree hip joints!!! YAYYYYYY!!!! He can easily be put in sitting poses and running poses. THANK YOU HASBRO!

Don't expect more articulation to come for The Avengers figures. This is it. :(
$9.99 is the price everywhere from the various reports.

The prong I need is at the very center at the front of the car. Let me find a pic for you before you spend 10.00 on it because it may not be the right one.

What I mean is the pin that connects the hip is placed at a 90 degree angle like the MU figs and ME Joes (25th, ROC, POC, 30th). On the IM2 and CA:TFA figs the connecting pin was placed at a 45 degree angle with the ball joint (I think this was done to decrease breakage of the joint). That SUCKS for easy sitting and running poses. Some of those figs are damn near impossible to pose. The joint on the Avengers Cap is at 90 degrees, but the pin is much larger/thicker. I really like it. It was done very well. This was the best part of that new figure.
