The latest Marvel Universe wave for 2011 arrived over the weekend at one of the specialty shops. I went down today to pick them up. Really like the new sculpts. Esspecially Iron Man’s new MU body. Sweet!

New pics are out from NYCC for Marvel’s 3.75′ figures! There’s the new Marvel Universe X-Men boxset and the Apocalypse figure. And first looks at the Captain America movie figures as well as those from Thor. Captain America does look a bit on the Chunky side compared to the MU figures. Doesn’t seem to look as good.

There’s also Mandarin from Iron Man series, and a new Venom from the Spiderman series. Venom looks good! continue reading..

Picked upped Marvel Universe Masterworks Galactus at The Falcon’s Hanger yesterday. It’s similar to the SDCC2010 MU Galactus exclusive that I got previously. But this is the retail version and it comes with Silver Surfer. It’s huge toy and unboxing it put a smile on my face.

Also managed to score the elusive 6′ inch Iron Man 2 Mark IV with Tony Stark’s head at OG Albert Court. Sweet.

I’ve been MIA for awhile due to my travels this month. I came back over the weekend to find this beauty of a figure to complete my Marvel Universe SDCC 2010 Exclusives collection. Nice.

Managed to pick up the Marvel Universe SDCC 2010 exclusives from various sources. The Captain America and Movie Spiderman figures have the new bodies and much better articulation. Ball jointed wrists, better joints for the neck and the ankle as well! I especially like Captain America’s removable helmet and Spiderman’s costume from the movies. Great figures!

What really took my breath away was the Galactus figure! The box and carded packaging is huge! It looks amazing! I haven’t opened him up yet, and I’m contemplating if I should, but from the looks of it he has some pretty good articulation as well.

To give a bit of perspective, you can see how small Captain America is compared to Galactus. He’s a huge figure! Nice…

So now the only figure missing from my SDCC MU Exclusives collection is Thor, I should be getting that next week! Woot! Great figures!

I’ve been collecting the Marvel Universe line recently. Though the figures maybe small, their sculpts and paint jobs are detailed. The line has come up with some gems. The pic above shows my latest scores in the past couple of weeks. Sneaked Iron Man 2′s War Machine in there as well. Great figure that.
