I found these figurines in the Johannesburg Airport Duty Free Shopping
Mall...so I had to make some tough choices and ended up with characters a
bit off the beaten path.

It was a joy to find Beta-Ray-Bill, as he is a favourite..

Then again, I'd much rather have had Elektra...yet her figurine totally
sucked!!! Typhoid Mary though looks great...and I did read those JRJR issues,
so...

It's a good thing that virtually all the figures seem to now be out of stock because I was getting the itch to spend some money...

Slightly tempted by Cap, but he's close enough to the first EM figure and I remember what a sloppy paint job that one had.  Have these hit the streets yet? Just wondering what the quality is.

Although I have sworn off toys due to space considerations, I am slightly tempted by that Cap simply because he's holding his shield outwards, toward the viewer. Are these the same scale as the original run of figures?

I believe the Fact File figures are roughly 6 inches tall 

#1 Thor is out now. Runs about $32.

Hi, guys, this is my first post. In Brazil, the "Classic" (not that classic, as John says) Collection of Marvel Figurines is being released yet. They just put on sale the Invisible Woman. You can buy online Hulk and The Watcher, the only two special figurines released til now. I want so much these Sasquatch and Puck figurines, but I guess I`ll have to wait a good time til it happens here...

Puck and Sasquatch are well worth the wait. In fact, I was quite pleased with how most of Alpha Flight got handled. Snowbird and Guardian were big disappointments, tho.

I'm seeing S&P listed on Amazon, by the way.
