Talked to my comic shop, apparently Diamond has a few of the older ones available to buy.  I'm picking up Doctor Octopus, Human Torch, Daredevil, She-Hulk, Invisible Woman, Movie Iron Man, Mister Fantastic and a couple more I can't remember right now, but didn't have. 

I was thinking of two Human Torches, one for Fantastic Four and one for Invaders.  I think I'll pass though, this could be a slippery slope if I start going down that path.  Gee, I think I'm getting too into this!

Just be sure, as I was, to get several Sentinels! You know they run in packs!

Actually, I did pick up three Sentinels on your example.  They look good lording over the X-Men I do have.

Boy, remind me not to invite you two over for dinner when I have Marvel's Strangest Teens Of All visiting. 

"They look good lording over the X-Men" indeed, Brickley. Mutant hating fascist... :)

Almost ordered that She-Hulk from Midtown, but have to pass for now... 

Not a case of willpower (so no Landru pics), but of an HLJ order taking budget priority.

I understand Bill, money has been a little tight for us between Xmas and our trip we took in September.  I'm going to try and get a little ahead this coming year.  

I know.  I just ordered about six lead figurines.  I can't explain, but it somehow makes sense to me.

Well Brad, it was a case of almost putting that Shulkie figurine in my MTC shopping cart, when HLJ sends me an email notification saying that the SF Revoltech Angirus is now on the way (pay us, please)...

They KNOW. ;)

I have mine spaced approximately equally behind all the other figures, X-Men or not.

You know -- Sentinels. Can't entirely trust 'em!

Brad, are you sure you didn't get the Secret Wars variant of Absorbing Man, with his arm chopped off?

Blog update with a couple of sneaks I'm excited about.

First up, Dracula.  Love the sculpt.  I've never read any of the Dracula comics from Marvel, so I hope this is faithful, but I'm definitely picking up this one.
