I have to admit I'm pretty happy about Puck, LOL. But man, so many characters would've been nice to have instead of all these redos and alts. I currently store my excess MU figures in plastic tubs and I'm not joking, when you peer into the hero tub, you see mostly blue and red (Spider-man), and red and gold (Iron Man) and that's with about 12 Shield Agent army builders and the classic Nick Fury.

Big fan of the Universe line. Not completist at all, but enjoy my favorite characters very much in this scale. I really hope they keep it going with the Avengers rebranding, and hope it doesn't vanish. As others have said, there are tons of A or B list characters left to do, plus some fascinating non-seen-as-much characters, such as, say, the U-Foes.

In the UK they're very hit and miss in terms of availability. You'll suddenly see a particular wave, and they'll be millions of the them, the same characters. Then nothing. Most of the figures I want I have to buy on-line.

Currently, I'm collecting mostly Marvel Universe with the odd Marvel Legends/Marvel Select that scales well put in. I'm missing a lot of the new sets right now like Mysterio, Rhino, Elektra, etc.

Walked into Target today and found Dagger and A-Bomb sitting on the shelf, I really wanted the grey Hulk but he was nowhere to be found... They were ringing up for $7.99 though so that was a pleasant surprise.

Nice finds, Slinger. I finally found Elektra and Rhino in the wild but still no Mysterio, Prof X, Blastaar, Cloak, Dagger or Abomination.

Just got home from another toy run. Didn't find anything in the toy aisles for MU except more Elektras and a Psylocke. Is she the new Multiple Man/First Appearance Ms. Marvel?

I found Baron Zemo? at Target but I didn't have enough cash to get him at the mouser 7 pack so...oh well.

Although I hate re buying the redos they are soo much better, Is there an improved Cap? Because I absolutely hate the one I have currently.

Yeah, one of the latest waves, the one with Elektra and Rhino redid Cap with most of the new articulation improvements. :batgrin:
