I've done this with 2 other figures. Jude Law plays a character in that new Star Wars show, and he has a 6" Black Series figure. I took that head and put it on Yon Rogg from MCU's Captain Marvel so I could have an "no helmet/visor" portrait.

I took another SW figure head from old man Han Solo. His head was placed on a white tux Indiana Jones figure, and this is now my President "Thunderbolt" Ross figure.

I admit it: I'm a geek LoL

Ain't nothing geeky about that, or at least, geekier than already collecting this stuff. Kitbashing is a time-honored tradition. BTW that Tux Indy is the best figure that line released.

Old age LoL I have to use READERS for my cell!

I paid $37.99 for my "Electro" (quotes intentional; that ain't Jaimie Foxx!). It was actually $39.99, but I used my Target card and they gave me a whopping 5% off!

It is WAY overpriced. But I took the plunge in hopes Foxx becomes an action figure in ANOTHER property, and I can just harvest the head and pop it on "Electro."

A Geek maybe. But a resourceful Geek. Nice work. Funny how Hasbro always finds a way to secure the likeness' of the actors from one Disney property yet can't seem to work out all the kinks to do it for another possibly better selling Disney property. Even if it's the same darn actor. Hmmmm. Let's ponder that for a second.

I must've thought I saw someone say $50 in a previous post, must be my old age . But at $35 still overpriced. If there was at the very least a Jamie Foxx head sculpt I could see them trying to push the price that high. But without it just too much in my opinion.

It's all good. I just wasn't sure if you originally thought I was trying to justify the price when I was actually agreeing with you lol.

Awesome....group hug, everyone!

LOL. That's my personal nickname for that Phoenix Deluxe figure they did on the ultra articulated body model that they charged $50 for. They charged for the immobile stand like it was an actual figure. I think the publicity crew actually referred to it as a 2 pack a few times. Though I'm not sure of that for sure. Might be just hearsay but it was insulting none the less.

See, now I'm going to have to start calling it "Phoenix scam pack" ....LoL that's clever

No argument from me. The lack of a decent Foxx likeness is a travesty.

It was $35, though. It's not a $50 figure.

Edit: Ah, unless you're talking Canadian prices. Not sure where you live.

And I'm not trying to come across abrasive. I just reread my post and I was like Damn I must have been heated. Hot flash maybe. But TBH I was angry at this thing from the onset. This is just terrible. Just so terrible. And I do love the double ball joint concept. It is amazing on the G.I. Joe and it's a full time thing with them along with the drop pins in the legs. How they got so far ahead of ML on this front is crazy. And I know it's the difference of a license Hasbro owns versus a license they lease but to me that's always been a BS argument. The accommodations for the price to land the license is accounted for at bid time. The money is already gone. To go throughout the lifetime of the agreement and try to cut corners and pinch pennies to try to recover that money prevents you from making full use of that license. It's just a silly excuse.

It's all good. I just wasn't sure if you originally thought I was trying to justify the price when I was actually agreeing with you lol.

I appreciate it. I guess Ill be paying eBay prices - Im just happy to know itll be manufactured in high enough numbers for scalpers to have it.

Lol. That's a way to put a silver lining on it. I was able to get one myself but I also live in an area that's actually been pretty good at getting most of these exclusives on the shelves. I'll keep an eye out and contact you if I can help you out.

I'll say this again and this has worked for me every time. If you get on the Target website at midnight( I know that can be a stretch) on the release date you will be guaranteed to get one. Now by the morning I'd say 6am it will be sold out again. This has worked for the last few Target exclusive's for me. Hope this helps someone out.

I was on at midnight, at 2, and at 3. No sign of the figure at any of those times. Not that it would hurt to try, its just not a guarantee!

Awww, that sucks. That happened to me on the Danvers Warbird, and I've never seen her. A buddy of mine happened to have insomnia and was up at 2 am when they restocked a few weeks later. On the other hand, this happened to me on Black Widow too. Then the same guy and I were at a random Target and found full racks of Widow on clearance for 12 bucks. Even though they were still sold out online with no real reason to be on sale. So I got two for less than one if I'd snagged it right away!

So don't give up hope, but there really is no telling with Target. They usually restock randomly. Most of the time you'll see some in a store if you have time to hunt. And ebay Will have them, its just a matter of what people will charge. But sorry you missed it, good luck, hope you're able to find one!
