Backordered.
I actually haven't decided yet. I have several extra ML females with heels and extra of other 6 inch females from other lines. I was even thinking maybe the extra Baroness I have from GI Joe Classified or the movie.Warbird shipping from Target. I already got some heels ready to increase that height.
Care to share where you got them from? I may do that as well once (if?) she arrives.
Yeah same for me, for my last two I purchased, the old backordered listing in my account.
Managed to get Warbird! She’s awesome! Beautiful face sculpts and outstanding articulation!
Edit: I have Warbird fighting War Machine because in one of the first stories in which I saw her, she battled a villainous mercenary who was wearing a version of the War Machine suit she fought alongside Heroes Return Iron Man in that epic battle!
Awesome pics Akat!
She looks undersized in those comparison pics, but I don't feel the same about BW. Wonder what's making the difference there?

Thanks!
Regarding height, I believe Warbird is an all new or at least mostly new sculpt. But her height seems ok to me considering the armored comparisons I have are supposed to be around 6’6” in armor. I feel like sometimes ML female characters have been technically a bit too tall. Warbird seems a bit more true to scale. But that might make her seem short to some people. And I understand that.
Managed to order a figure yesterday morning but got a notification today that she’s now been back-ordered to August 5th. What a pain in the ass.
Looks like my older Warbird/Ms. Marvel gets to stay in the display after all, and I’m okay with that.
My in store pickup one came thru and I grabbed her. My to be delivered order delayed to August. I was planning on passing her on to someone here for cost but I figured I’d throw her back in the sea now and cancelled the order. Guess I still get my toothpaste free shipping.
Success with my in-store pick-up for 2x Warbird. Also picked up a Mandalorian Privateer. I was able to use a one-time 20% educator discount on the order, which included 2x AXM Wolvie, so they were each only $20. I've got another two Warbirds and Wolverines being delivered Wednesday.
Warbird looks short because her heads are tiny. They did something similar with Widow. The smaller heads create a different proportion to the body, more superheroic in proportion. It's totally not necessary, but I think that's the goal. But if you compare Carol's head with say, Maria Hill/Quake, you'll see a distinct difference in the head sizes and proportion to the body. I don't like this trend because it makes the overall figure look out of scale with the rest of the line.
Only have one Target in my city and I've had zero luck with finding in-store exclusives, so I've fed an eBay scalper. It sucks, but I've come to accept it as my only realistic option with Target exclusives, sadly.
Well, I was road tripping with family yesterday who wouldn't let me stop to check Targets for Warbird along the way - we only passed two Target stores in the entire 5 and a half hour trip anyway, but still. Going to the local store in a bit to see what I can see. But I'll be driving 2/3 of the state of California tomorrow alone with a ton of Target stores between here and San Diego so will have the chance to check quite a few. Hopefully I'll be able to find Warbird at one of them.
At both of the pick-up stores I hit, there was zero new or related stock on the shelves. I’m glad I didn’t rely on in-person retail hunts for this.
@sdcomics I would GREATLY appreciate that! I don't see a way to PM you though?
My best friend and I were out toy hunting yesterday, and we didn't find squat at any of the usual stores we stop in. On a whim, we drove to a slightly out-of-the-way Target, and he happened across a Warbird on an endcap mixed in with some disorganized Star Wars toys. Since he wasn't looking for her, he let me snag her. Couldn't believe she was just sitting there, apparently discarded! When we looked at the pegs where the Marvel Legends usually reside, there was no trace of her. Honestly can't believe my luck with this one, as I was royally ticked off when I couldn't get her in the presale. Very happy to have her in my favorite costume on my shelf!
