Just got back from my LCS. Picked up a Green Quicksilver. Didn't ask if there was a

specific assortment but they had 3 Quicksilvers, 2 Yellowjackets, 1 Jean Grey, and

2 Thors. (Variants versions of the first three) $14.99.

At first i thought i scored, thinking someone must of sold them to the shop, then

i remembered this post.

nice to know that IM toys are coming out quite early... time to start saving some cash!

Ghost Rider Dropped around Dec for a theatrical release in Feb.

Sounds about right for me? What I wanna know is; Why are they limiting the amount of lines that hit shelves? One series every quarter... with specialty line coming in the mid-points.

This assortment of action figures from the

I didn't realize these would be based on video game character designs also. Any idea what villains will be in the video game other than maybe Iron Monger?
