...a Marvel ICONS 12" unmasked Captain America figure?

It cost me 19.99, so that plus shipping...

I just want to check with the folks here first before I put it up on E-bay.

Thanks!

Dump him fast as you can.. unmasked Cap is clogging shelves already.

Masked cap and gold IM seems to be the most popular figures, and series II has already shown up in CA! (Venom really lookes awesome!)

Also, they are #14.88 at Walmart, as opposed to Tru's $19.99.

yup that sounds about right, and i don't know if the masked ones and Gold IM are the most popular so much as toybiz are morons and actually packed the variants in higher numbers then the non variants IE the masked ones

I just hit another local walmart, since they are all doing their rests this week.

All Icons were present at least 4 deep, except variant gold IM.. and there were actually 5 unmasked CAs there.

I wanna find one of those Icons Venoms though.. I'm not a huge fan of th character, but the figure looks just awesome!

Oh! also saw the POTC Black Pearl Zizzle playset.

Capsule observation: way too little detail, crappy masts, and way too much for what's there.

I guess I'm spoiled by the megabloks ships, but IMHO if Zizzle want to release something similar for for larger scale figures, they need cloth sails, the masts need to be about 4x thicker AND taller, and a flat black paint op just ain't gonna cut it with me.

I was hot for it, till I saw the box, and larger pics.

I'll still snag the megabloks Flying Dutchman as soon as I see it on a shelf though!

See, that's funny because I haven't see ONE Icon on the shelf in ANY of the TRUs, Walmarts, Targets, etc. that I've been to.

Whatever, just thought I'd ask...

Wal-mart is JUST doing it's resets this week.. they are in the plan-o-gram, so they are getting them in stock.

If you check RTM's forums, you'll see post after post of people complain that they can't find masked cap, but unmasked is clogging the shelves.

Honestly, if you still have the reciept, I'd just return him and save the hassle of ebaying him.

yea but what might be warming the shelves in one place might be something that you can't find in others... like the unleashed leia... everyone but florida seemed to have her.

The TRU's I've stopped at either have nothing or a single yellow Ironman....

I picked up a Hobgoblin for Jor - but he already has one so I'm looking to offload that

Do the Ironmen? [img]tongue.gif[/img] you've seen have the mask on or off?

All of the Icons iron man have the mask off, and it's on the side of his head displayed.

(Unless it was not packaged, or dropped in the box.)

The only variants are unmasked Wolverine and Cap, and gold IM.

from what I hear the variants of series II already hitting shelves are eddie brock headed Venom, and gray hulk, but I haven't seen pics of a confirm on those two.

They *are* selling quite well here, too!

Rumor has it Icons Thing and Lizard have been dropped.. and I REALLY wanted a 12" comic looking Thing.

Yeah, I think they are gone.. the message was supposedly posted by Jesse Falcon, the Toybiz guy. Hasbro killed them off.

Personally, I'd rather see more Icons then Marvel legends!

I figured I could use the rotocast FFs from the movie, and replace the thing with the true comic book version.

Mr. Yac

i could go for more icons then legends, only problem is that i highly doubt icons will ever dip into the even remotly obscure characters, and thats something legeneds does at least evey now and then.

I'll be doing a different wal-mart run today. Are you looking for regular IM, or the Gold variant?

That's kind of what I have planned.. get a gold one, return the yellow/red one, and then repaint the red in metallics.

Well, now that you say that, if there is another gold at same price I would like it....If only yellow is available, I am fine....

i sure as hell hope not, but it makes sense as i might have actually purchased the Thing and Lizard and thus they are perfect for being canceled [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Ok, snagged the Yellow IM, and the masked Cap. I have the pick o the litter on Cap, but there was the only 1 yellow IM there.

I've got a payapl account if you want to do it that way, or whatever else is good.

I'll need your address, and I'll give you the toal with shipping once I send them. (I'll have to find a box for them as well, since they aren't small, unless you want them unboxed for cheaper shipping. (Learned that trick from Shiner.)

I also saw the titanium big BattleStar Galactica, as well as a lot of clearance stuff due to their reset, and ended up picking up that Sigma Six big Dragonhawk, just because of the excellent reviews, and the fact that it looked uber cool.

The wife snagged a Kitty Pride ML as well, mainly for the tiny Lockhhed in the package.. >sigh<.
