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

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.

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

They even have those arm things on the Classics 2.0 version.
Hasbro - an A-10 does NOT land in the water !!!

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...

The black-suit spiderman is already out. I saw it last week at my TRU along with human torch and wolvie.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.
Posted by Optimist Prime on November 18th, 2008 @ 9:50am CST
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.

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.

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.

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)
