That was it? Just 30 minutes of Giant-Man? No more reveals? :/ 🙁 Neat reveal, but also kinda disappointed. I was expecting more figures, after the Haslab reveal.
This was specifically for the Haslab reveal. Pulsecon is in a couple weeks.
Looks pretty neat, but I don't have the space for that. I'd probably buy a 12 inch Giant Man.
Honestly, for the price this is pretty cool. Looks well engineered. The finger articulation is neat.
Lower torso ball peg or swivel. I hope its not just a waist swivel
This looks great! I love that it's 24 inches as I think is probably the ideal height for this offering. I'm definitely going to back the project and would likely buy 2 (maybe 3?) if both faceplates fund.
I bought 3 Sentinels and always regretted not getting a fourth to use the battle damaged look. I never really considered getting more than one Galactus, but I certainly may buy more than one Giant Man and the price point makes that more realistic.
Once we heard the rumored $199 price point I knew that there wouldn't be multiple tiers of 6" figures, but not even one is disappointing -- but if that's what kept it under $200, then I"ll take it! I bet they release a new Wasp around the time this about to ship next fall -- maybe in a 2-pack with lab coat Hank.
I've never been happier about being wrong in regards to saying that I didn't think that they'd ever release a HasLab this cheap!!

If only we'd been warned.
Yeah... honestly I'm not sure. I think 24 inches is too big for this. I don't give a fig about the face plates, I'm not working a Marvel Zombies display and I have the Skrull Giant Man from the Universe set which is fine for me. The price is nice but I sincerely wish he was about 4 inches shorter and included Pym in a lab coat at least. I legitimately am not sure this size figure will work in my display so I'm on the fence but inclined to jump down on the 'skip it' side.
Did they give an estimated shipping month? I don't see one. REALLY thought this was where we'd get an Atlas included and maybe Jarvis. Oh well!
This could warrant multiple purchases. One for the Avengers, a 2nd for the Skrull/Secret Invasion set, and a 3rd for the Marvel Zombies. Hopefully they realize that the Zombies line is Very thin... look at that Tier 2 offering! Only Zombie Scarlet Witch and Zombie Iron Man, plus the old Marvel monsters zombie? Bring on a wave already!
I'm backing it. The $200 price tag is too good to pass on. Hoping for a 3rd tier though.
$15.99 for shipping and $15 for tax. Total was $230.98
Giant-Man looks awesome! Must-have for me. Great choice of costume. Super articulated. Excellent size and a good price. I like the alternate faces and the Skrull head, too.
And ShootingtheGalaxy’s photos are so fun!
My thoughts on Giant-Man (I'm someone who did not back the Hellcharger, and vehemently disagreed with the entire way they went about structuring that campaign).
- I think Giant-Man looks terrific. Really beautiful figure.
- I appreciate that they are not gatekeeping highly desired figures behind an expensive paywall. However, a Wasp figure should have been part of this. I'd be okay with that because they have and surely will offer more Wasp figures as regular releases.
- The zombie and Skrull heads are not interesting or enticing in the least.
- While I'm more X and Spidey than Avengers, I am an Avengers fan, too, and I definitely want this. I want this Giant-Man in my collection...but I think he's about $50 overpriced. As great as he looks, I don't think he's worth $200.
There are other things they could have done beyond 6" figures to make this worth the $200 pricetag, beyond the zombie and Skrull heads. Some other kind of accessories to give you a different Giant-Man look. Also, he didn't need to be 2 feet tall. 18" -20" would have been fine, and maybe a little cheaper.
- Overall, I applaud them for not selecting a modern character that most collectors have little to no interest in, and I further commend them for not gatekeeping highly-desired classic characters behind that modern character purchase. Kudos for not including lights and electronics that no one wants or needs.
But the price, while not as egregious as last year, is still an issue, IMO. At $150, I buy this today. At $200, I'm leaning toward no. I don't have the old Toy Biz BAF, but I do have the SDCC exclusive, and I might be okay with that version on my shelf.
I feel like I'm the target demo for this but I'm probably passing. It looks absolutely beautiful. But I don't need a 24' Giant Man. I have the old ToyBiz one which is as tall as I need, and still holds up on aesthetics. For $200 I would have been a lot more likely to jump at this figure at 16-18" but with regular size figures or other kinds of add-ons. The faceplates (esp zombie and skrull) hold no interest for me at all.
I hope it funds. It's definitely great for anybody who doesn't have the ToyBiz Giant Man. Although, $200 still feels a tad steep to me. It's just not enough of an upgrade for me personally. Plus, it's really too big for me to put anyplace. Having Galactus and the Sentinel is already really stretching it for me.

Dan on X(Twitter) yesterday said they were only revealing one thing today, but that PulseCon is coming in two weeks with a ton of reveals.

They said they're working on a T3, honestly haven't decided, and that they'll take feedback.
IMHO, a "First Appearance" Wasp is the way to go.
I also don't think that's unreasonable as her first suit had blue gloves with blue tinted wings and leggings and her first Avengers suit (which could be retail) had red gloves and clear tinted wings.
Looks super cool and has a fair price point but it's too big for my collection. Excited to see more photos of it though.
I'm sure there will be single and multipack releases to match the Giant-Man theme just like how we got Firelord and the Terrax/Fallen One 2PK. Hopefully, that is where we see some Janets, Hanks, and other supporting characters.
EDIT: I like his size at 24" compared to the Sentinel at 26.3", Galactus at 32", and the TB Giant-Man at 13.5". Can't wait to see the comparison pics to the TB BAF.
$350 with 5 figures, boooooO! boooo!!!
$200 with 0 figures, I'll back 3!
OK, makes sense. 🤨
Overall, I think it's an pk offering, at $200. I do think it's a bit high for just one large format figure. It'd only be worth it if all tiers were unlocked. Like most other folks, I don't think I care at all for either unlockable tiers since I don't have displays or collections pertaining to those universes. I do very much like Giant Man himself, from sculpt to basic face plates. Hasbro really knocked it out with the sculpt. I also think I would have been satisfied if he was 19" instead of 24" for space saving reasons. I'll be on the fence until the very end. People that want it, go do your thing!
