Squirrel Girl was part of the Great Lakes Avengers team.  I guess that could qualify her to hang out with the Avengers.

Moon Knight was a member of the West Coast Avengers, if that helps.

Squirrel Girl was also the nanny to Cage & Jones' daughter, Dani. So she's also main Avenger adjacent, too.

Squirrel Girl was also a part of U.S. Avengers

Is there a law that says one of my pre-orders will always start processing immediately after shipping my pile of loot?

 

Shipped my PoL containing Deadpool and a couple hours later got a processing email about Wolverine

Every. single. time. I can't remember ever not having this happen.

I have 35 items sitting in my PoL right now with the oldest thing needing to be shipped by the end of this week, but I've gotten the "pre-order processing soon" email within the last week for 8 different things that haven't hit yet. I know that as soon as I ship that a couple of more will hit and that I'll likely let them sit for 3 months again....  it always happens within 24 hours of shipping... every single time.

I'm very thankful that they offer this service because it saves both them and us money, but I agree that this is just one of those annoying things that tends to happen as a result.

So ah... does anyone else have a Bushwacker where the pistol gun hand has the wrist articulation flipped from the regular gun-holding to the standard pivot? Mine clearly has sculpted and looks like it should have the pistol holding articulation, but it's switched and articulated the standard way. I have no idea how the factory would produce a part mistake like that...

Somebody had a Thena like that and I kept hoping to find one.

Just got the War Journal set.  Man, are these two great!  Luckily, Frank's skull looks great on mine, though, I have to touch-up the "teeth" a bit.  Think I'll paint the edges as well for a more solidified look.  I'm blown away by how much I like Bushwacker.  He'll makes a great human henchman for Jigsaw.  Are there any other goons with messed-up faces from the comics that would make a good addition to the gruesome twosome to pad out Frank's rogue's gallery of pretty boys?  I kind of regret not buying a 2nd Scrap Iron when I saw it for $8 at WM.

Frank's gallery of recurring rogues is pretty thin (for obvious reasons). Really hoping we get the Russian (pre-op) one day.

The unmasked Zemo head from the Zola/Zemo set could go towards making another scarred adversary.

Posting this in 2024 since I'm behind the curve. Got Punisher/Bushwacker a few weeks ago and finally opened it up. Punisher is a little gummy but overall pretty solid. Happy with this new body (though a balljoint waist would be better...) and the head sculpts are great. Solid set of accessories too - the extra hands are the best part.

Bushwacker is just simply amazing. Love getting a new, weird character, and the execution is great. And hey, he's on an old Punisher body too which is fun! The rat tail is just beautiful.

I've got the Ramen Punisher van ordered, and a tin full of Valaverse guns to outfit it with. Really happy to have a great 90's/War Journal Punisher to go with it.

My video game Sentinel sets finally arrived -  Hooray.   They are fun.    I wasn't quite prepared for how ludicrously out of proportionally large the feet were with the rest of the figure  -   but the figures are definitely fun.    Glad to finally have them in hand after what feels like a very, very long wait.
