So new question: anyone finding creative solutions in using these lenticular shields for anything useful? I don't want them as shields and I don't want to throw them away.

Ideas?

To me, they are useless garbage. I didn’t collect the original line so I have no nostalgia for them. I’m even more annoyed that instead of that shield, they could have given Cap a standard shield instead.

@sdcomics 

Wolverine deduced his duo identity through Peter’s/Spidey’s scent.

I believe Matt Murdock (Daredevil) earlier deduced Spidey’s identity with his enhanced senses matching the vitals for both identities.

I have to assume, given rumors of an absolute Spidey and Hulk this year, we should expect a Cap in the same line to come later that gives us multiple shields as accessories.

Scored Electro and Kaine at Target yesterday. There was one more Kaine left, no others. Both figures are pretty nice!

Electro and Chameleion now have an estimated ship date of January 23. This is not confirmation that these have shipped though. The way Pulse has been updating ship dates has been very unreliable lately.

Might just be me but I always get an 'expected ship date' of the day they send the email but usually they ship like, 5-10 days later. It'd be nice to get anything resembling an accurate estimate but I'll take a little forewarning they're going to charge my card even if it's not super accurate.

Interesting... Amazon has the entire wave listed as "now arriving on March 20"   so they are still two months away according to Amazon... for now.

Between two Targets, I picked up Spider-Boy, Agent Venom, and Unlimited. Only missing Chameleon now. I bet he's the most coveted.

Between yesterday around 2:30 and today around 3:00 one of my Targets went from nothing to one Spiderboy and two Chameleons. Did I miss everything?

Wave complete! Grabbed the last Chameleon on the pegs just as another collector was grabbing the second to last one.

Checked my Target today, no sign of any of these. All they had Legends wise were the Brave New World deluxe figures and the same old MCU Iron Man and Spider-Man reissues that they've had for months. Best Buy, Gamestop and Walmart didn't have anything new either.

Would any kind soul mind putting their Retro Chameleon head on the AOA Morph body if they have both on hand. Trying to find a decent stoic Morph head that doesn't look doofy, and doesn't have ears like the custom '97 heads they have on Ebay. Thanks!

Chameleon has a Voldemort nose though. Would that even pass as Morph?

My Target had Animated Spidey and Spider Boy. Bailey is obviously too tall and it'd be nice to have better upper articulation, but he can crouch great and I love the head sculpts.

Animated Spidey feels like a premium figure with all the sculpted details. I almost didn't get him, as I have no connection to the cartoon, but damn, I love this figure.
