Saturday at Wal-Mart I actually saw 1 each on the peg of Hulk, Iron Man, Black Panther and Daredevil. Just couldn't convince myself to spend $10 a figure. If they were $5 then yes, but just a touch too pricey for me. Rather have 10 Hotwheels! There, I Said It. It's the cheapest any action figure line has been in years now, but that's still a fair point. I'm making close to what I was making ten years ago while everything I pay for has gotten more expensive... I also consider that at around the same pricing a POP figure has maybe 3-4 times the size/worth of plastic. Feels like the Marvel figures you are paying a higher license cost for them? The DC figures at that similar size also have a better sculpt or design to my eye. Marvel retro look at me my arms go up and down while I stand here like a soldier at attention just doesn't do anything for me. The Hasbro Marvel figures circa 2014-2015 looked better while having accessories. Have a few of those on the wall.

No such luck for me, but my nearest Wal-Mart is remodeling and I suspect they're holding off on stocking quite a bit of the toy section until they're closer to finishing.

I really like that black costume Spidey.
I need to find the regular one.

Those look awesome! Are they real previews, or a fan thing?

Those look awesome! Are they real previews, or a fan thing? They were revealed at a Hasbro video conference or some such earlier this week. It should be noted though they are digital mock ups, not pics of prototypes or production models. -M

still.. those designs and character choices are great, so this would be for wave 4 I take it? (since wave 3 was announced earlier?)

Yes, these are wave 4.
I notice Black Spider-Man has a different right hand than the original.

Still nothing at our local Walmarts (or really any action figures at our local Walmarts, the action figure aisle was 80% empty and the collectible section of action figures in the electronics section was completely bare except for Funko Pops. There was a couple of pegs of Shang Chi figures, 3 pegs of Star Wars, a couple of pegs of Spinmaster Batman figures, a couple He Man figures, and a few other scattered figures in the toy aisle and that was it. IT almost like they are doing away with an action figure aisle completely the way it is stocked.
