The Avengers Movie: 3.75" Wave 1 Complete Review!!!

And it begins!

The countdown to the May 1st release date of the Avengers here in Singapore has begun!

Why now, you ask?  It's not because the Rangerlord sounded me out a week ago that the toys were out.  It's not because I walked into Toys R Us five days back and saw the 3.75" figures, the Quinjet, the Deluxe figures, the masks, or Captain America's Frisbee shield.

It's not even because later that same evening, I was picking up my wife at the nearby mall and she texted me "You're gonna wanna check out the department store.  There's lots of Avengers stuff!"

No.  It's because I walked into that very department store and saw these!

Oh, and if you've read this far, Happy April Fools! ;P

Yes, as you can tell, these ain't no action figures, nor are they 3.75" tall.  They're just, well, Mini Muggs!  And this is a review of the complete 1st wave!  (Gotcha!  Maybe.)

There was a set, only one complete set, and I had to snag it.  Sure, some other guys will probably pick up my leavings of a couple of Nick Fury and a Hawkeye or two, but I, I have the complete first wave of The Avengers Mini Muggs!  Mwahahahaha!

And here I review it. :P

7 Faces of Optimus Prime (Part 4)

Face 5!
















Face 6!















Ok, ok. So these guys don't transform. But they are Optimus Prime. And they're cute.

As far as articulation goes, Mighty Mugg Prime is like all MMs--head rotates, arms rotate. The Robot Heroes Prime, probably only the head. But they're cute!

Muggs Prime comes with his laser rifle, and as with all Muggs, the paint is very well done. I wasn't planning to get him, though. But my brother had and extra from a set of wave 2, so he sold it to me. Check out what is says on the back of his box at the bottom! :)


And as for the Robot Heroes Prime, I got him in the US, at Target I think, for under S$10 while attending a wedding last year. He comes in a 2-pack with Unicron, and he's opening The Matrix, so how could I resist? And at about 2 inches tall, he's just too cute. :P

I won't rate these guys, cuz they're technically not action figures. But if you're a fan of Prime like me, then it's worth getting. Don't pay more than $30 for the Muggs Prime--there should be more than enough to go around from 2 waves. For the Robot Heroes Prime, it's harder to find nowadays, but don't pay more than $10 for the pack of 2 on Ebay.

Did I mention how cute they were? Ok. Shutting. Up. Now.
