Is that Galactus bust based on his appearance in a video game? Remnds me of the 90's when things were changed to look better but just looked worse in my opinion. And Sideshow are such a great company, I would have thought they would have gone for as much accuracy as possible.

The Wolverine costume is from X-Force and the Iron Fist costume is Danny Rand's most recent costume in the new Iron Fist title.

Wow, that's a big collection!

The Marvel 3 3/4 collection would have been perfect when I was a kid. GI
Joes were my favotie figures in the 80's due to the fact that they fit perfectly
in my hands and were highly posable, allowing me to have them do the
kung fu moves I wanted them to.

This Marvel colleciton would have been my biggest fantasy; today, however,
I merely display figures, so I'll stick to the full sized guys I already have.

The real litmus test will be if all the figures are equally available or if they short print certain one's for the secondary market or have some kind of gimmick that make them collectibles as opposed to toys.  I would really like it if kids actually played with these things.

Opening the boxes and taking them out would gives you lots of room. :)

Not really - all the shelving around the room is pretty full with the original figures and books and comics from the 70's. They would pretty much become a jumbled mess.
