Hi Rob

When I heard 'When We Stand Together' by Nickelback and thought it make a great song for the Avengers Movie and so I did a YouTube search and surprise surprise look what turned up from FirsTimeLord001 has created "Avengers Stand Together" one using The Avenger EMH anime rather good have a look see ;)

[ComicToyReviews]

@UltimateHulk32011 Cool, they did make officially the Spidey 1 movie song. :-)

[UltimateHulk32011]

@ComicToyReviews Hi Rob yeah I remember it was big hit ;)

[UltimateHulk32011]

@UltimateHulk32011

Hi Rob the FirsTimeLord001 has had his channel closed but another similar version of this video has appeared from RassilonPrime01 ;).

[UltimateHulk32011]

Hi Robert

Sorry for the slow reply as was busy with work ;) I agree both figures are great I have the Heroic Cap. Local UK big name toy stores here are not going beyond wave 1-2 in the Marvel lines our American cousins are Uber lucky in this regards.

[UltimateHulk32011]

Hi Robert

Yip Hasbro are sneaking out a few Ultimate MU figures the likes of Magneto and Spiderman :)A lot of the folks where shocked not to get a Thor Comic Series may be BRO are saving themselves until Avengers lol ;).

I'll have to pre-order Beta Ray Bill from BBTS as theres not a hope in hades of seeing him in either Toys R Us/Forbidden Planet /Smyths in N.Ireland.

Heroic Age Cap and US Agent aren't peg warmers their infact they're paying rent to Iron Man 2 movie lines lol :)

[ComicToyReviews]

@UltimateHulk32011 Thanks :-) I got to review the modern Cap and Agent both are great figures.

[UltimateHulk32011]

Hi Robert

Looking forward to getting a proper MU Incredible Hulk in 2012 as them first issues heads are just are a waste of plastic Gentle Giant have upped the game plan.And I'll likely pick up the She Hulk and may be one day a MU Ultimates Hulk and Thor,as I have the Ultimate Iron Man comic series from Last year and the Ultimate Caps WW II and Modern from the Movie comic series.

Ah who knows may be an Ultimates boxset due to Avengers next year. Beta Ray Bill is a worthy must have for 2012.

[ComicToyReviews]

@UltimateHulk32011 I think the Ultimate line will get here :-) They really should have made a comic series on the Thor movie. I'm sure Ult version would have made it in that line. I'm sure Beta will sell out fast, looks great! But I suppose the whole line will sell fast, cause recent waves are gone fast. I go to the store and see near empty shelf space a lot. Or the one or two figures no one wants. lol

[UltimateHulk32011]

@UltimateHulk32011

Hi Robert

I seen last night on Marveliousnews that we are getting our Ultimates team members as we both thought Thor and Hawkeye look very comic actcurate roll on 2012 ;).

Did You manage to snare your Compound Hulk ? :)

Hope you enjoyed your High adventures at NYCC ;)

[UltimateHulk32011]

Hi Robert

Glad to hear that Hasbro has given the sculpts to Gentle Giants of the MU to design now an especially this Classic Hulk ;) I'm really happy got mine from BBTS in June :)

[ComicToyReviews]

@UltimateHulk32011 Great to hear, didn't know they were sculpting MU now. Their stuff is some of the best in the business. :-) The MU stuff have really improved in quality in the last year. It's great to know they realize fans want more and are upgrading the line.

[UltimateHulk32011]

Hi Robert

True they'd gave us all a heads up on any variants but you never know with Hasbro they sneak things out under the radar lol ;)

I see the Future Foundation boxset has appeared in the Marvel Toy News in Toyark for sale on ebay nah not intrested myself.

[UltimateHulk32011]

Hi Robert

I really enjoyed this box set review ;)

As regarding the changes I only found out about them my self about a month ago ;).Ah the Golden Avenger does look fine in the Comic series hall of Armour :).

I wonder shall we be treated to a variant of this box set with a Grey Hulk or Full sized Ant-man and Wasp as Hank's heading our way in 2012 from MU.

keep up the damn fine reviews my Friend :)

[ComicToyReviews]

@UltimateHulk32011 Thanks :-) That would be a great idea for an alternate set. But I don't think they have plans or the last convention would have made mention of it. Though the FF will have a variant set in their current costumes.

[DavidLeeT]

I like the Little Ant that comes with Antman its a nice touch, great review bro. love the classic ironman look :)

[ComicToyReviews]

@DavidLeeT Thanks :-) I like that little ant as well, they just needed more of them! You can't have enough with a character like Antman. lol

[UltimateHulk32011]

Wonderful review Robert

Iron Man MK I recieved a new helmet and neck collar and antenna and for all those who asks why Golden in early stories he rescued circus goers from escaped Lions and his grey armour scared them so he did a repaint.

Thor is a new head/helmet&wingst/hair and your correct it's the same secret wars body.

Hulk has a new head the classic Jack Kirby sculpt with new forearms and fists and lower legs and feet, torso,upper arms and legs belongs to MU Juggernaut

A GREAT SET :)

[ComicToyReviews]

@UltimateHulk32011 Thanks for watching :-) And thanks for all that information. I didn't have the figures ready to compare what parts were changed. And that gold Iron Man armor looks great with all the other comic based armor suits. :-)

[kjhulk]

really nice set.

[ComicToyReviews]

@kjhulk Thanks, thought you would like that Hulk in the set. :-)

[maddwoba]

Great review and great looking set---I really like the classic look on these figures.

[ComicToyReviews]

@maddwoba Thanks :-) And totally agree, that Hulk figures face sculpt looks to be as good as any Legends sculpt.

[DumbAssReviewer]

Great Review Rob,I Really Want This For Ironman And Hulk,Now I Got To Get Both Loose On eBay,Thor's Probably The Worst In My Opinion

[ComicToyReviews]

@DumbAssReviewer Thanks :-) Totally agree, the Modern Thor figure looks so much better. This set really is about getting that cool Hulk and classic look Iron Man.

[MaximilianXanadu]

Looks cool

[ComicToyReviews]

@MaximilianXanadu Thanks for watching :-)

[devilstoysuk2]

Great in depth review :) The Hulk is the only one I really wanted and I dont wanna pay that price so Im hanging around for now..lol.. But I will pick this up one day. That Iron man is a must for my Iron collection. love the hulk. Thor really looks like the secret wars one I already have. I cant really ask for much different as thats his 60s look I assume, but I notice a different hair and face. I guess I could trade one of my Thors

[ComicToyReviews]

@devilstoysuk2 Thanks :-) It's a good set but yes Thor is the weak one of the set. The Modern Thor looks much better.

[AUTOCONS1]

awesome review, I've been meaning to get this for a while now, I need to get my lazy ass on ebay and buy this

[ComicToyReviews]

@AUTOCONS1 lol Thanks, great set and I don't think it will disappoint.
