The way store exclusives are often kept secret until they're for sale it could be anything. That Tiger Paw release was a shocker. Never did see it in stock.

It's the Retro card Professor X figure. He's wearing his Shi'Ar armor from Uncanny X-MEN 275 to complete that team line up.

How about this for an idea. Raven does get made and she used a good portion of Crimson Guard female parts (not all though) then the actual use of the mould come out later with say a gift set.

They could put a Crimson Guard Officer or Cadet Denning (also able to be a generic cadet) and a female Crimson Guard out of that mould family.

I would hope Raven would have the nice Strato Viper boots on though.

Has there been any news that Road Pig & Pet ($44.99) or Raptor ($34.99) are going to be anything other than mainline releases? We thought Raptor would be exclusive to SDCC, but now it looks like he will just be premiering at SDCC. Got a feeling we will see prototypes of both at SDCC and pre-orders could open for them around July 25th, but that is just a guess.

Starduster still seems to be the PulseCon exclusive figure, until Hasbro shows off something different next week. Pretty sure Globulus (and Pythona) will get name dropped pretty soon as part of promoting Nemesis Enforcer and they way he is featured on the back of upcoming packaging.

60th Marine Sniper and 60th HALO really need a pre-order soon if they are going to be released in 2024. There is also a mysterious "Whipsnakes" 2-pack still unrevealed for 2024.

I thought it was a 60th Marine and 60th Action Pilot. Did I miss something about a HALO?

Good morning from Team '86 with our new buddy, Beach Head.

Again in their ARAH packaging poses, with the exception of Sgt S. who is so sad he doesn't have his Triple T (Teeny Tiny Tank) to drive. Beach is using the Hasbro stand and Mindbender is on a Retro stand, for those curious.

Man, I love the Air Chariot, it's so great, even if it does bunch everyone up a bit.

I'm going to be hurting once we start having 10+ figures in a year's team before I get my larger home office up and running. I wonder if any of you have experience with good tiered display stands? I've seen some randomly on social feeds but never think to mark them.

Hmm. Totally agree they're going to keep working on Cobra-La depending on how sales go of OAMCC and Nemesis... but wonder if they won't try to get the Royal Guard in there early to try and get people to army-build?

[Trigger2K]

I'd hope Royal Guard would come before Pythona since he was part of the original 3-pack.

Still kind of disappointed they didn't do a Classified Cobra-LA 3-pack, like the '87 release. That'll have to be my Zandar/Zarana color change 2-pack that's also not happening.

The last 2 years of Con Exclusives were a set... Mindbender/Serpentor, Chuckles/Crimson Strike Team. With the new Cobra Commander, I would think that the PulseCon exclusive is that Nemesis figure we saw a while ago.

Could still be a surprise and see something else shoe-horned into a set, though...

Just arrived in San Diego on Tuesday for holidays + Comic Con!
I don’t know what happened last week but it was like a whirlwind hit the toy aisle of ervery Target I visited, all shelves emptied of Marvel Legends, Masterverses or Joes, and of course Junkyard ant Mutt showed on stock but couldn’t be found anywhere in the store.
The staff I talked to told me that clearance items gets stolen often (why!?) so it might be a stock error.
I was quite bummed and down for a while but then Ive been able to buy the complete Doc wave at a random GameStop so now I am quite happy. I still keep on hunting for Mutt but since it’s been clearanced I don’t have much hope of finding him in the wild now.

Might try Wal-Mart as well, if one is near by, while i am not sure anyone has seen Mutt and Junkyard there, you might get lucky, they also carry Marvel Legends and Masterverse
