Thank you! How do you like it?
I didn't do it, that's a post on Reddit from someone else who did it.
Heh that's what I get for sneaking Fwoosh at work...

we should be allowed to look at a little Fwoosh at work
Right? I can't be expected to go all day without Fwooshing!
@enforcer right? I was feeling the same way. I really appreciate that person doing it literally so I don't have to.
Regarding scale of these figures: Zendaya is taller than all of these dudes, and her figure is a hair shorter than Tom Spidey. For me it's all good. I really don't keep tabs on heights of comic book characters or the actors that play them, I have no desire to research anyone's height. I only know Zendaya is tall because she and Tom are a real life couple and there's pics of them next to each other without the Hollywood movie magic of him standing on a box off camera.
I hit three Targets today looking for Andrew Spidey. 1 and 2 had no MLs at all, 3 had all the figures I already have. While I was at 3 I found out what the DPCI for Andrew Spidey was and the employee told me they didn't have it but the Target I was just at did. UGH. By then I was out of time and needed to resume family duties.
@yojoebro82 I genuinely envy that you don't care about scale but to me it's a big deal. I love the disparity between, say, Princess Leia and Chewbacca. Or even a Han figure that is taller than Luke. And it's one of those things I just pay attention to without meaning to, so if they put out a Black Widow and a Captain America who are the same height, it would totally bother me.
At the same time, I still prefer the taller MCU Thors even though that isn't screen accurate. I know that's weird and maybe hypocritical but I want Thor to tower over Starlord even if he actually doesn't.

I do CARE about scale to a certain extent. Yes, I want a Chewbacca or a Thanos to be taller than your average human figure because I've seen one hundred times wide angle shots of them standing next to average size people, so my mind is already aware of that. But if you are comparing your average humans to average humans, your Peters to your MJs, for example, I'm fine with a little discrepancy.
Target dot com has them available.
Target is also running a toy BOGO 50% off sale starting Sunday. If they have enough stock left by then and Marvel is included in the sale since it says "select" toys we're likely to be getting them at a discount.
Usually Marvel stuff is included, and when it isn't they usually note it in the asterisk notes in the page ad below, but there's no note of Marvel being excluded. Doesn't mean they aren't excluding it anyway and forgot to note it, but history suggests that's unlikely. But the past year of history suggests that Target is messing things up in a nearly-infinite number of different ways, so this could easily just be yet another blunder and Marvel isn't included...we'll see! 😳

And this is why I save my receipts. Especially now since there will be some sale going on until Christmas. And after that is clearance time.

What do you do--buy the sale item, then return the one you bought at full price? If that's the case you don't really have to save receipts anymore if you have a Target account. You can see a record of everything you bought online or in stores in the Target app, and if you drill down into a purchase there's a barcode for doing returns.
I regularly return items that went on sale later; in fact I just returned two of the Mania/Space Venom 2-pack yesterday, one because it was defective and the other because I bought another last week under their BOGO sale stacked with a $15 off of a $90 purchase offer. I haven't saved a receipt in years since they're all automatically saved to your Red Card account.
Getting a Target RedCard is a no-brainer. It's free, you get 5% off of everything, free shipping on everything, and an extension of their return window from the default 3 months with receipt to 4 months with no need to keep receipts. You can use it either attached to a bank account, or you can open a credit account with Target and pay that bill separately.
It's also easy to share it with your significant other--when checking out in stores the payment pad has the option to enter a phone number, and my partner just enters my mobile number at checkout to use my Red Card to get 5% off of whatever she's buying. It doesn't charge my Red Card when she does that, it just links the sale with my card for the discount, extended return window, etc.
One thing I absolutely love about Goblin is those glasses are the most secure accessory I can remember seeing on a Legends figure in a while. They fit REALLY flush with his face, and the fact that they wrap around his head makes them almost impossible to mistakenly lose if you also use the hood. There's very little room to nudge the goggles strap loose if the hood is on, so it effectively locks the goggles in place on his head.
That's particularly important if you have kids. Usually I don't let my kids have accessories that come off easily and are small enough to easily lose, but those goggles are the most secure small accessory I can remember seeing on a Legends figure.
