Got Spider-Woman yesterday, and she looks good standing with Power Man
and Iron Fist--while the others are divided into teams and families.

That's where she's going to end up for me too, Thomas, after I pick her up today along with Super Skrull. Spider-Woman with the Loners and Super Skrull with the villains, 'natch.

So, with some extra money burning a hole in my pocket, I finally decided to break down and start collecting these little guys -- starting with Spider-Man and his rogue's gallery. Much to my surprise, there are very few of them listed on eBay. So where's the best place to get these in the US?

Your LCS should be able to order them. If you don't want to go that route, try Midtown Comics. Their selection varies depending on availability, but they generally have a good number of them. Search under "Action Figures" then "mini figures". They haven't had Spider-Man for quite some time. Popular character and an early release, but they do have a number of his Rogues Gallery.

Thanks, Matt.
Turns out there's more on eBay than I originally thought. I was searching by "Eaglemoss" which didn't turn up much, but "Marvel Classic Figurine" reveals quite a bit. I ordered Spider-Man on eBay, plus Black Cat, Kraven, Sandman, Mysterio, Electro, Vulture, and Rhino from Midtown. Now I just need a shelf ...

I need to get Sandman and Super-Skrull, and I still need Angel and Black
Panther among the heroes.
Matt - You and I must have similar organizational brains.

JB, did you ever post a finished version of your commissioned Hulk from page 14 of this thread? (I thought I saw it before but I can't find it now)
Also... you were talking about "colors not found in nature" last month when the topic of Iron Fist's costume came up... a blackbird that landed on my feeder yesterday was totally reflecting green in the sun
first thought... heeeey... Iron Fist!
second thought... man I need to get a life =P

There has been an unavoidable delay in the delivery of the commissioned
pieces, but that should be rectified soon.
And, bird's feathers! Yeah, they often reflect unexpected colors. "Not found
in Nature" is not entirely accurate in any case. Just about everything is found
in Nature!!!

can't wait to see the finished piece
re green things not found... I'm so stoked that Bowen is doing a Super-Adaptoid MB... hoping for the Tales of Suspense 84 / Marvel Double Feature 8 look & pose :) (there's a new poll at the cmfc site for figurines 105-120 and S-A has 6 votes so far... fingers crossed - he's my favorite villain)

Agreed, and Avengers 45 is one of my favorite all-time covers

I can't wait to see JB's finished commission either!
Finally tracked down Super Skrull on Saturday.
Here's me fooling around with my camera this morning:
I like the sculpt. I don’t mind the ‘smile’ so much, especially at this angle.

I ordered a few of the older figurines from Midtown this past weekend, but still have quite a few to get. Does anyone know if Midtown backfills their inventory with older figurines? Thanks.
