Captain America as a Hummer.



I can't help but think that was influenced by someone in someway.

Love the robot modes, but most of those new vehicle modes give an all new meaning to the word FUGLY...

If (God forbid) there was ever a TF Crossovers line for G.I. Joe, a retool of Thor (replacing his head with the Starscream/non-conehead seeker head) would work for the Cobra Rattler alt-mode IMO. Only downside is that the engines on this figure are in the normal place for an A-10 Thunderbolt II, not on the wings as they'd be for the Rattler.

Question: why are we getting another Spider-Man figure? Or is the original just used by mistake? Wondering because I thought there was gonna be a "black costume" repaint of Spider-Man...

Given Cap's origin, a Hummer actually makes sense. It would have just made more sense if his alt-mode was a WWII-era military vehicle, not the Hummer.

I saw that too with the Spiderman. I am not sure if they are issuing the normal or black one at this point. The black version was supposed to be due out in Wave 3.

?

It would be nice (and narcissistic) to think that my artwork is secretly being turned into actual toys, but that's actually fairly dissimilar.

Carnage. Yeah. That sure is some Carnage in my eyeballz.

They need to change out the Thor head, and FINALLY give Powerglide a decent mold without those stupid arms under the wings.

They even have those arm things on the Classics 2.0 version.

Hasbro - an A-10 does NOT land in the water !!!

Well it's sort of a good idea to have the marvel characters turn into vehicles but the colours on the vehicles are way too off.... (Thor seems like it was a mix and match of parts from other toys).

Thor looks like a cheap knock-off. None of this line have got my approval yet.

It's easy Hasbro. Get a D.C. licence, get Batman, turn him into the Batmobile. Done.

Seconded...

I understand that heroes outfits are often garish, but my goodness...

Thor's yellow boots/jet engines may be the worst thing since...well, since the '08 Detroit Lions... :?

Maybe they will look better later...could EE have gotten ahold of prototype pictures? The new molds sure don't look very detailed compared to the figs that have already come out...

Thor and America look pretty rocking but ohh dear god are those colors hideous. Someone3 already said it but thor looks like an unpainted parts bash.

I think black-suit Spidey might be out too...but then why the new release of the normal figure? Or is this supposed to be Ben Riley as Spider-Man? Assuming so, why not do him as scarlet spider? Or maybe at least forget about the clone and maybe do an "Iron Spider-Man" deco?

Sometimes they just release popular figures in multiple waves...

Anyway, I'd hope we'll get an Ultimates repaint of Thor (black, silver, and dark blue), but we'll probably get Beta Ray Bill. :?

The vehicle modes would look aces if not compromised for the robot-mode colourscheme.

I don't think Cap is a Wolverine repaint...it's a new mold. The shoulders are completely different, among other things...., :-?

No sorry, Captain America is not a repainted Wolverine. Its a different mold altogether.

Thor looks cool, yeah the plane mold looks weird in such bright colors, but that was expected.

I like all 3. Specially Cap with his tire shield looks very cool.

Black suit Spider-Man is out, I got one on Thursday. I also saw Wolverine, Human Torch, and gray Hulk. So I'm guessing that's wave 2

Beta Ray Bill, eh? Kinda interesting idea, with that head of his. Shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth though. Sorry. I know it's a bad pun. It's just...Beta Ray Bill's head...it was kinda there.

Cap is a solid maybe, but Thor is a must buy for me.

repainting/kitbashing some of these could be cool.

Riddle me this!

Why does a full-blown God, who can fly, use thunder, lightning, have super strength, need a giant transforming robot?

The robot modes look good. But the alt-modes make me wish I was color-blind.
Re: Marvel Crossover Wave 3 Images (835854)
Posted by Optimist Prime on November 18th, 2008 @ 9:50am CST
Poor Thor. They took the spawn of Odin and made him look like the spawn of Playskool.

Captain America looks pretty good though. A hummer is an apropriate choice for his alt.

Love the Carnage alt. It's too bad the robot mode looks so contorted.

The others, whoever they are, are forgettable.

Because it's a better way to fly than his regular method: throwing his hammer and holding on for dear life.

Okay they should stop making any cross over references with superheroes, obviously the coloring (not to mention robot design) for this poor sap are horrible (especially carnage and Thor).

The only good thing (for me) coming out of this cross over is only Venom. Thanks for the plain black coloring with white spider symbol on the hood gave Venom a slick look. While carnage red color really doesn't cut in with the design.

I'd just ask if Hasbro lower the prices on these things. I'm not too sure they are worth the price between Deluxe/Voyager

Agreed. The only reason I haven't gotten any of the Star Wars TFs yet is that they are too expensive (19.99 in Canadian Stores). Save for the awkward price point I'd own several SWTFs by now, and I'm considering some of the Marvel TFs.

Posted by Blurrz on November 19th, 2008 @ 8:07pm CST
Aye dishing out a Green Queen for a TF of that size is ridiculous. I'd honestly be buying every single on of these figs(cause Marvel is cool), but I just can't afford that and I'd rather hook myself up with Deluxes that are seemingly only $7.50 at Canadian Wal-mart and TRU.

Deluxes in my area are 14.99 regularly at Wal-Mart/TRU.

You sure? They are regularly 14.99 too, and then TRU and Wal-mart whipped out the big Sale sign and they are all knocked down to $7.50(well Universe/Ani Deluxes at least)

Wow those things are laughable IMO. I bought the Hulk-tank and that thing is a brick. Totally cheap and useless. I have had mini-cons that were more stable and transformable. Hasbro has to stop with these atrocities. :lol:
