Didn't want to start a new thread, recycled. I'm getting the brown suit Wolverine Select figure, but I can't decide if I should get the Hawkeye preorder now, which comes out in March, or the comic Thor standing on the boulder. Other options are Thanos, Avengers Hulk, Rulk, and Ultron.
Homies Orbz thing... Me either. But my MIL has a comic store she goes to and finds me figures and stuff as gifts. This year she sent me a 5 Orbz booster pack (3 blind picks) and I'm guessing she got these from there because the package looks brand new but has a 2004 copyright. LOL Mostly she finds something pretty damn cool, but there's an occasional miss. I can't find much about these things. Seems no one collects them or sells or buys them anymore. It's just marbles with Homies faces on them.

LOL The box showed up today and we figured what the hell. I have no idea what the hell to do with Homies marbles.

They're both cool. Hawkeye's the more interesting one with his kickass arrow-filled robot victim base and expressive headsculpt, and he's the character that's more up your alley; so if it has to be one that's a no-brainer. Thor's nice too, but the only thing that really stands out about him as exceptional are his giant detailed muscle arms that put NECA's Arnold figures to shame. Optimally, I'd get Thor now and hunt down Hawkeye in March.

Thanks. He is definitely up my alley. Always been a favorite. That's Ultron at his feet BTW. Oh, wow, I didn't know Wasp was sitting on one of the arrows. Cool. I love the vibrant colors and simplicity of the Thor, but I also like the other Thor with the super arrogant sneer and metal armor. Not the movie one. However Thor has never been a big draw for me. I don't read his books, just when he's part of something else. So it'd be a pure style poser choice.
I did put Hawkeye on the side. I've been filling, refining and deleting shit from my cart for a while now. Right now it's Thanos, brown Wolverine, new 52 Supes and Gorshin Riddler from the Batman TV show. He's always been a rare favorite from that ridiculous show. I like the Lee Supes redesign a lot, and I always tell myself I need a Superman figure, but never get one. That's about the 10th change so far. LOL

Avengers Hulk is a really, really great figure. The plastic they used feels a bit brittle, but the articulation is great. Best Hulk figure ever.
Beware though, if you get Hulk you're gonna want more of the big bulky Select figures. Juggernaut and Rhino are also quite awesome.

The big ol bigguns I've seen in person are really appealing. They take up the whole dang package. Amazon had Abomination for $11 and I almost got him.
The Avengers Hulk face is the best to me, which is the main reason for choosing him over the rest. Not much of a fan of Juggy or Rhino, so the Hulk lineup is more up my alley.

This is cool! Someone popped a Hyperion head on the new Winter Soldier and it makes for an awesome MS Cable. I was tempted to get Winter Soldier just because it looks like such a good figure, but not knowing much about the character was holding me back. Now I kinda want to find one, I mean the outfit doesn't quite scream Cable but it's close. Maybe I should get that ML Hope too, didn't realize the scale would work.
