Re: The Wolverine 3.75" Figures Released in Canada

TRU Hamilton got them and they really do look like POS toys.

Yeah, these showed up at my local TRU as well. I bought the ninja figure for $5.17.

I can use the accessories and the head for a ninja custom. Otherwise, the toy sucks. The ninja isn't much of a ninja compared to GI Joe Red Ninja figure. You would think they would give the ninja more points of articulation.

The head sculpt for the Wolverine (X-men costume) figure isn't bad and I kind of like the claw slash attachment, but that is about it. I may pick up that figure when it goes on clearance.

why do they keep doing this, this is a step down from the amazing spider-man line which had like no leg articulation

Because the "kids" want them, not because it's cheaper to make

Re: The Wolverine 3.75" Figures Released in Canada

I get more angry about these garbage figs every time I see them taking up peg-space... this is a dark time to be a collector.

Hell, even the good shit that does come out is unevenly distributed, sparsely supplied and when it does show up gets scalped in a bloody hurry.

I've been trying to streamline my collecting for a while now, but I never thought that the big two would be the ones making it so easy for me.
