Hulkbuster! And a few more of his friends from Avengers: Age of Ultron.
As you can see, here he is paired up with Spider-Man. (Wait a sec! Spidey wasn't in AofU!)
Okay, Thor and Captain America were.
As were Iron Man and Hulk.
This Sci-Fi series of Kids Nations may in fact be a bootleg. I could only find this on the net, though similar sets went for 20-100 bucks, my friend snagged this set in the UK HK for around 10 bucks thanks to some haggling. (Oops, he found them in Hong Kong, not the UK.)
As you can see, their stands interconnect. I'd like to get the whole lot. Looks like I'll need to take a trip to HK soon. There is probably all sorts of this stuff there.
Purely by chance, the day before I met my (figure) dealer, I found this Iron Legion figure from a similar set.
Cool, also by chance, the Avengers Ultron Revolution is on one of my Cartoon channels.
My Hong Kong connection has supplied me with some more dust collectors, only this time they are magnetic so I can stick them anywhere metallic. Unfortunately, the gimmick to obtaining these foes of Ultron is by collecting a bunch of stamps and then redeeming them for a randomly boxed character. Therefore, it's expensive and nigh-impossible to get them all. Here are the 5 that she sent me.
This Hulk is a favourite yet he appears more Lou Ferrigno than Mark Ruffalo.
I think Tony had beans for dinner!
How do I get this :M*th*r-F*ck*ing disk off my back?
Nice to see Black Widow wasn't excluded unlike most American merchandising.
Hawkeye is a suave looking bowman.
Speaking of Hawkeye, here is a video showing his unboxing. (Warning: video is very dull, skip to the 7 minute mark for the unveiling.)
Here is the entire set. If anyone sees any of the ones I'm missing and wants to pick them up for me, I won't object.
Since I had to pick up my goods at the Post Office, I was halfway to Natori so I decided to do some shopping on the Nerd circuit. (Toys Am Us, Hard-off and Mandai). At トイザらス (toysrus), I was mainly checking for new Star Wars stuff, but I'll show off those findings in a later post. At 799 yen each, these cars are a little out of my price range, so I sufficed with just snapping a few pics. I may break down later and buy a Groot-mobile.
I did buy some more Avengers disks packs since they were on sale. When I got back to the car, I discovered they were only EIGHT YEN EACH! I would have gone back and bought up their entire supply but there were only two left and I had cleaned them out.
Spider-Man and Tiger Shark.
Crossbones and Captain America.
Over to Hard-Off (that sounds rude so I'll refer to it as Hobby-Off.) Slim pickings but I did find two plush figures from the "Kawaii Art Collection". Somehow I missed these when they were in the UFO Catch bins, I landed Spidey and Cap but missed out on Thor! (The search begins.)
Over to Mandai, I only found a Spidey-head on a chain.
A tad disappointing but I also found this cool kaiju nemesis. I don't know exactly what series or movie it is from but I like it.
