Carol's modern Captain Marvel look is one of the best redesigns they've come up with this century. A figure with updated articulation and sculpted costume details would be phenomenal.

Absolutely! The modern Captain Marvel costume is wonderful. Really want an updated figure of her with all pinless double limbs and face printing and power effects. She would be amazing.

I managed to get a Ms. Marvel / Warbird on the day it dropped.  I had to scramble between phone/computer to find a working link as Target didn't seem to post it to be found easily.  Thankfully, while it felt like forever to find, I got in under the 3 min wire before she sold out.  And it quite literally WAS 3 min.

Agreed. Need this as a figure.

I, too, back this sentiment. The All-Father wave figure barely holds up now. Give her uniform some sculpted detail, with the added articulation if possible.

I managed to grab 4 Carols. Two to keep and two to scalp.

 

 

Welcome back, Fwoosh.

Managed a pre-order for Warbird from GameStop up here in Canada. I can't see this being too hard to get after it releases - online or in store.

To quote Ripley, I hope you're right, I really do.  I only ever saw Black Widow in stores once, and I had to drive forty miles to find her.  Meanwhile, people were boasting that their stores put her on clearance.  But I guess that's better than the Fwoosh being down, and not hearing what other people are finding.

I'm hoping this won't be the case, but when there is such a demand created for a limited character, the scalpers will be out in full force making their little backdoor deals with their favorite Target employee to grab the entire box full.

I usually try to be optimistic but I'm just not for Warbird.

I just hope both will be on CMDStore. That's been my way to get Target exclusives. The Targets around me in NYC are almost always bare, and I rarely see any exclusives regardless of the line.

Pretty much come to terms with the fact that I'll be sticking with my 3-pack Carol for the duration. Not worth the grief.

heh yep. If I see Carol or Cletus on CMD, I’m gonna snap them up. Barring massive markups, my time is more important than paying retail these days. I’d rather pay a few extra bucks than drive all over hell and gone searching.

but now that The Marvels lost money at the box office and has one of the lowest critic and fan scores of any MCU film I think they may take the foot off the gas a little in terms of pushing Captain Marvel as the face of Marvel.

To be fair - one could argue Marvel Studios has no idea who the face of the MCU should be. They've been floundering on this front since they lost Boseman and refused to re-cast Black Panther.

And in two months, the face becomes Deadpool.

They should have just restarted the universe after the Endgame. That story is over, almost all of the famous and beloved actors are gone. Take a break for three\four years, think it over, find new young actors and start over. Maybe even choose the 70's instead of the modern day. Then we have the X-Men and the Fantastic Four. And there's no multiverse and all the other problems. 

But no, they decided to release a tons of content most of which turned out to be mediocre to bad. Famous heroes are either gone or dead. And now we have a Fox X-Men characters to "save the day"...

I’ve been doing the “add to cart”/“nothing added to cart” dance with Carol since 2am.
