We're moving our office in about a week and a half, so I packed up all my Marvel figures I have here into one box to take home.  Good lord, this is heavy.  If you guys don't hear from me for a while, I'm under my desk, sobbing.  Send help.

Well, found a place that's close that actually has a lot of Eaglemoss' for sale, so I've been able to catch up on some older Marvels. Still don't have everything I want, but I'm getting there and it's cheaper than eBay if you add in the shipping. Nice to find the Fantastic Four, except Sue. Also able to get most of the X-Men, except Angel.

I might just pick up another Venom and Atom and try to build a Beast. I really don't like the kitty one much. Was that Ryan who did that? I might also pick up another Plastic Man and do a JB version. I think it wouldn't be too hard after looking at it.

After seeing Bill pick up a Power Girl two weeks ago and now wanting this Shanna, I'm beginning to think I know what type of girl Bill likes...hmmm indeed!

First look at The Wingless Wizard.  Another yes.  I'm not crazy about the pose, but I love this guy.

Good basic sculpt, but the helmet isn't tall enough.

For Odin, I'm guessing it has to do with a fan sculpt that went up on the figurine forum a year or two.  It was pretty nice, Odin seated on his throne.  Talk sprung up immediately about getting Eaglemoss to produce it as a Special.  Things changed, the throne was ditched, but he stuck as a Special.

Odd that Odin is too big and the Wingless Wizard's head is too small.

I sure hope Midtown restocks these at some point.  They are getting dangerously low on selection and I'm wanting a few that have come and gone already.  Enchantress, in particular, seemed like she was on the website for a very short time.
