The dark Spiderman is awesome, I've never had a venom figure
before and this more than makes up for it...just awesome..added the web blast that came with super articulated MU spidey to jazz him up a bit. Dark Wolverine looks deadly, they even made the
Muramasa Blade (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muramasa) claws silver like in the comics. I would have prefered that they used the wolverine mold from the wolverine line...better articulation and all that but it is still really cool.
The cyclops still has the gimpy little arms that the secret wars cyclops did he just has the "comic" highlights for his muscles.
Dark Phoenix is the exact same body as the other phoenix figure but has a new hair sculpt...looks great, I added human torches hand flame to "empower" her, lol.

I saw a secret wars thor 2 pack last week and thought that someone scammed walmart with a return from another store, lol...
guess I was wrong,lol.

Huh, is this the first time WM has carried the comic packs up here? I remember seeing them carrying the comic packs down in the states.

I believe it is the 1st time. Previously only Zellers and TRUs carried the comic packs.

This is good news, I hope the Sentry/Spidey 2 pack makes its way here...
