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

Iron Man 2 - 3.75" (Nick) Fury of Combat 4-Pack!

Well, at least most of it. ;)

I actually bought this off a guy at the local Sunday toy "flea" market."  He'd sold off one of the Ground Assault Drones and he gave me a real good price of S$38 (US$29) for the remaining 3 figures...which was awesome because I managed to get the much coveted Nick Fury and one of the Assault Drones!

 Finally!

What of the movie-accurate painted Iron Man Mark VI, you ask?  Well, it has a missing left hand and a twisted right leg.  -__-  Yes, this was a factory packed, sealed, MIB package.  But hey, I got a big-ass discount because of it. :).  Actually the guy charged me for the drone and Fury and threw in the Mk VI.  But some hot water should fix the leg, and a spare hand can be easy found, either off my old Mark VI or an old GI Joe figure.  I'd probably just have to repaint the hand that but it's only a tiny part so it's all good. :)

Then weeks later, The Rangerlord finds this very 4-pack for S$60-ish (US$46-ish) but he only wanted the Fury.  So guess who snapped up the Ground Assault Drones from him?  No, not Chuck Norris.  Me! :P


So is the much coveted Nick Fury worth, well, coveting?  Is the Ground Assault Drone?  Well, we're just gonna have to take a closer look, aren't we? ;)
