ML 15, ToyBiz's last hurrah...

Talk about ML15 here...

Let's get the ball rolling then :)

www.cornerstorecomics.com just announced that they are getting preorders for all the variants, including the very hard to find (daw) Blue Wasp. Not sure how "rare" this will be, just look at Scarlet Witch :unsure:

Were you able to preorder the variants?

Some of them are already pre-sold-out as of yesterday. I guess the pre-allocations have been exhausted for the more in-demand characters (like Destroyer).

I'm not so sure if the Blue Wasp variant will end up like Scarlet Witch since this particular series will be harder to source especially for non-US folks like us. So there may not be a glut like what happened with Wanda.

I didn't preorder anything yet! :( was hoping to think it over pa, just checked CSC, it's presold out na nga. Oh well, if ever naman, I'll be just getting Thorbuster Ironman and Moon Knight variant for hubby. I just don't wanna preorder anything muna! no budget even for preorders! :lol:

OT:

My wife cant seem to find any ML14 in san fo...are they out already??? :(

Both series 14 and 15 are actually out in the US already.

Ken, I heard that they're available na in Walmart and Toys R Us... better yet, order it online nalang :)

Hi guys! its so sad to hear that the preorders are going out fast...

I think toybiz did a great disservice to a lot of collectors when the international shipping/ distribution was cancelled. The reasons as to why they did such a hasty move, we can only guess and wonder... Hay



Anyway i was lucky to get this destroyer variant from a collector from Caloocan who's brother lives in Washington State (one of the areas ML 15 was first sighted if i remember AF.com news correctly). The guy BTW is a cousin of Jojo owner of Black Dragons.

I believe it was a business decision. Given a tight deadline, they had to do what they had to do. I don't favor it but I can understand why they came to that decision.

Its really bad it that it had to come to this at any rate i'm still glad that one of my dream figures came true (Marvel legends moonknight and spiderwoman).

Thorbuster is really a must have i can just imagine seeing him being added to the roster of ironman armors - what i sight to see.

Hi, guys, my first post here on AFhub :)


Here's a review of sorts on ML14 and 15 :)

Gold

congrats in bagging Destroyer (and the other ML15 figs), Jujuman... I have to agree that Toybiz really did a great disservice to loyal ML collectors... they knew that their patent was going to expire a long time ago... they should have planned better ahead of time... i just wish that they just produced/released what they can... rather than scrambling to release selected figs to selected people in selected parts of the globe...

... I just need IM Thorbuster, Destroyer and Beta Ray Bill...

... I heard that huge companies such as Toybiz are very sensitive to racial discrimination... maybe we can write them a letter telling them that selling MLs only to Americans is some kind of discrimination... :huh:

... getting very desperate :unsure:

Congratulations on the Destroyer Jujuman (that you Mike?). I actually took my chances with pre-ordering this and 14 as well just in case I won't be able to find these here. Hope fully these will come with the variants already.I'm also having my sister look for these figs in and around the Los Angeles area but to no avail.

I was also able to pre-order some variants of 15 but only the red wasp and white moon knight. All the other variants were already sold out when I tried placing the order (and to think that the email informing me of the variants was just a few hours old :rolleyes: )

Yes thats me i chose jujuman because i was influenced while i was watching Outbreak. I saw Dustin Hoffman pointing out to a guy who was praying in the mountains for deliverance from a viral plague - turns out he was the Jujuman or witch doctor of the village. The movie was great and the name stuck on me.

I just thought that a Jujuman would be a nice alter ego in this nice site rather than doctor slump, since Jujumen are like doctors except they are traditional and wear a piece of loincloth which i do when im in front of the PC - Just kidding

hehehe :lol: Now thats a picture I don't want in my head :D

Back to topic. Since the HOM box set, which was in the list on items (along with ML14 and 15) that were not destined for international distribution, is now out on the local market, would it be safe to assume that ML 15 (and 14) will be arriving on the toy shelves of TK et.al. sometime soon? :huh:
