The Marvel Universe Figures

Does anyone actually collect these? Small ML figures that cost almost exactly the same... seems ridiculous to me...

I think they have or are about to get released locally within Australia. The rumoured price for Oz collectors is ridiculous - I think I can actually order DCUC figures and get them shipped over from the US for cheaper if not at the same price.

I used to be a big Marvel Legends collector but I stopped collecting due to the insane local prices, poor distribution and the rise of store exclusives.

I saw them and I wanted to like them, I really did. But they just don't look that good to me. And the price is just stupid!

Yep we Aussies are getting shafted on price once again. I'm fortunate enough to have a brother who manages Toys R Us so I get a good discount

Just saw them at Target yesterday. Of course they did not have the Hulk wave so still looking for both of them. Yeah, price is a little crazy. $8 used to be the Legends price back in the Toybiz days a few years ago.

I have the grey hulk but I have not found the green yet. Normally, I pick-up a few of these - but after seeing price point on them - I don't even really want to pick up one...
