Power Princess / Wonder Woman should be bigger across the shoulders than 90-95% of Marvel's women superheroes. These characters can hurl cars. Even the more physical ladies like Black Widow and Elektra aren't "big" in that way. Crystal, Invisible Woman & Kitty Pryde certainly aren't.
She should, I'm not disputing that. Her figure is a better representation of comic book heroines than most of the figures in the line. I think that's why people liked it so much. Swap out her larger biceps for something thinner and there's your default female body.
Well, finally some good news from Pulse. Just got notice that my Sentinels packs have shipped. Excited that I'll finally have these.
Have just given up on ever getting my Pulsecon order that is still "Pending"
The Target Exclusive X-Men Jean Grey figure doesn't go up for pre order tomorrow, does it? I saw people talking about that in the "Mini Comics" Wave Thread, but I have never seen any info about that figures pre order date anywhere.
I know at the last Marvel Legends Livestream they said info on the figures pre order date was to come. But has anything been officially said yet?
@supercamel-1982 No idea, honestly. Everything I've seen mentions a "Spring 2025" release, but I don't know if that is fulfillment or PO.
It appears that the idea that X-Factor Jean would go up today may indeed have been a fiction. There seems to be no indication that any pre-order is active on their site and no links on social media pointing to a sale page.
Yep, I've been checking Preternia, and no links; I'm guessing today is not the day.
Anybody else get charged for Savage Land Charles? Looks like mine just hit my credit card but no indication of shipping yet.
Is it the classic Target preauthorization charge?
@h-bird Maybe? I'm trying to recall if I've preordered from Target before and if that happened. Is the pre-auth usually the whole amount?
Yep, it's usually the full amount and hits once per week as a pre-auth, in my experience. I use a Target Red Card for just my Target pre-orders and nothing else for exactly that reason.
My Sentinels have been in transit for like a week. Pulse is using DHL now, and this is the first time I've seen anyone use them for domestic shipping. Why are they so insanely slow? Shipment started in Illinois, and that's about a 12 hour drive from central Virginia.
Usually my Japanese shipments use DHL, and they take 2-3 days to go from Japan to Virginia. Love how DHL is faster shipping overseas than half a day by ground domestically. 🙄
Yes, DHL sucks. I've had all of Pulse, BBTS, EE and McFarlane use them at different times within the past year specifically for smaller orders. They're horrific. What's worse is that in my experience it's rarely them that actually drops the package off anyway and usually is dropped off at my house by a completely different carrier, usually USPS so it would have been better if they were shipped by that method to begin with.
Ooohhh yeah, that's bad. I was wondering where my Sentinels were and they shipped and processed 2/4 and then sat still for THREE DAYS. Now they're in CA but I have to allow another 1-3 days.
Sure hope Hasbro uses those three pennies they saved well.

I don't get that either. DHL also has dropped domestic shipments with USPS the two times I've received them so I don't get it either. They've been handing my Sentinels package off to the USPS since Thursday now. Look, if they ACTUALLY hand it off the USPS figures it out by the next business day if you say drop it in a mailbox somewhere, so why it takes 3-4 days for their hand-offs is a mystery.
DHL itself almost always drops my international shipments off and it works so much faster.
