I have Hawkeye in my Amazon cart right now. I'm getting some ink and took another look at him and can't figure why I just don't get him. He's $23 right now, and I know if I wait he'll go up too high for me to bother. It's amazing to me that for only 3 or 4 dollars more I can get a badass Select figure, instead of a smaller Marvel Legend. Though I did see Red Skull at Walmart last night, and he looks awesome.

You know you won't regret it, but I'm all too familiar with being indecisive on purchases. His base is almost a whole other figure though, how cool is that?

He is mine. Well, technically he is. Not in my grubby hands yet but he's on the way.

Sweet, I see now, I misread that as confliction when you were just explaining your "why the hell not" reasoning. Nice addition to the MS collection yo!

Why is Winter Soldier so much more expensive? Amazon and BBTS both have him for $40, and he's even more on eBay. Is it because it's a Disney Store exclusive, or just because he's awesome and everybody wants one?

On the bright side, if you can get to one, the Disney Stores usually have a surplus of the exclusives. And they treat you like a magical prince.

DisneyStore.com has Winter Soldier for $25. I know this because I just ordered one.
Only thing is now I'm gonna want a MS Cap to go with Mr. Barnes. The Legends Face-Off Cap figure is awesome, but he's out of scale with the Selects.

Sweet, think you'll go for a comic or movie Cap?

I like the comic Cap from a couple years ago, but it's another Disney exclusive and it goes for like $50. Too steep for a 7" figure. And the base isn't nearly as cool as Winter Soldier's. The new movie Cap looks pretty good though.

Gamestop.com has a cool lookin' one for $19.99, but it's Bucky Cap, I guess that defeats the purpose. Whoa, they have Ultron for $4.99. Probably just to mess with frin since he just had to buy a new PS3.

^ I looked anyway. lol He's not available online. It'd be a good companion piece for the Hawkeye that's coming. Kind of a before and after. $15 for Avengers Hulk, Magneto and Daredevil are also great prices.

Hawkeye is suicidal. I regularly find him on the floor, no matter how I tweak him to stay in place. Dick.

That's how my Ultron was. Got fed up with it and got rid of the damned thing. Got it used so may have had some issues with the joints. Waiting for my local shop to get one in packaging then rebuying it. Loved the base on it

Yeah, I've complained about floppy joints on a couple of these before.

Winter Soldier's ankle joints are a little loose, but his feet plug onto the base so it doesn't really matter.

^I thought it was just mine, his loose ankles make him lean forward a little. It sucks a little.
