Pulse has moved the shipping date for the Tiger Paw from October 1 to July 29, which matches the backordered date for Target.

No, but it was worth the $38 from the Target sale LOL ... I am kidding, if you thought the regular Ferret was worth it than this will be also.

I think Wreckage is a better figure than the Ferret Scout too.

Very few, and in some cases, like the Crimson Guard, it works great. Others, like Quick Kick and Shipwreck, it does not, and leaves the figures looking out of place and outdated. We've even seen collectors throw a vest on Retro Duke to update him a bit.

Another option for non completists could be to just collect the retro or just collect the modern figures. I?m pretty sure if people are patient the main characters will be available in both styles. Duke and Scarlett and recondo perfect examples.

The Retro line of figures is pretty darn incredible based on the names alone.

Destro, Baroness, Cobra Commander, Zartan, Storm Shadow, Crimson Guard, Cobra Trooper, Eels, Snow Serpent

Lady Jaye, Gung-Ho, Duke, Scarlett, Snake Eyes, Recondo. Beachhead and Stalker

Thanks, normally it wouldn't be a big deal for me but there's a lot of ML releases right now so I'm kind of trying to limit my spending. 85th wolverine, warbird, iron fist 2 pack, and the dr doom 3 pack. I got the colossus 2 pack re-issue. I decided to skip over Skaar and secular spider man. Just a lot of releases.

One Tiger Paw on the shelf at the Target at The Collection in Oxnard, CA. I didn't buy it. I already have a Ferret, I'm not a fan of the whole Tiger Force theme.

Totally get it. Right now it is very challenging to collect multiple lines, especially Hasbro ones with how they are putting out the product.

For me, I have been just with the S7 Joe stuff and Classified so I get a little breathing room but that might change once the ReAction+ (o-rings) drop.

I do not care for the Secular Spider Man either. He needs to attend services each Sunday like the rest of us.

I'm both excited and dreading the ReAction+. I don't know how much more I can afford!

Secular Spider Man has very strong opinions about religions role in government. (I don't why I typed that lmao)
