Infinite Heroes Checklist

The Infinite Heroes checklist has been updated to reflect the Entertainment Earth pre-orders for various waves and revisions. There's also notations to indicate differences between Entertainment Earth pre-orders and Action Figure Insider's shots of the placards shown at SDCC indicating which figures are coming when and in what wave. Atom and Black Hand have been spotted quite frequently on eBay, while carded Hush has been spotted a few times, also on eBay. Apparently depending on where you live (isn't that always the case) Atom and Black Hand are easier to find.

Wave 11 at Entertainment Earth too!

Entertainment Earth has Wave 11 up for pre-order too! Shipping in December is the first set of cases, featuring:

1x Black Spider-Man & Doc Ock

Wave 11 up for pre-order

Big Bad Toy Store has Wave 11 of the Super Hero Squad (Ronin, Ultron, Mystique, Skrull Soldier, SHIELD Agent) up for pre-order ($30 for the set, another $8 and change for shipping and suggests that the figures are shipping in November.

And interesting to note, this is the first wave since way back when 5 and 6 shipped together to feature a 2-pack where both characters are new. Who knows when the next pack will come out, since the Black Widow wave and upcoming Hulk Wave 3 are all 1 previously released character and 1 new character. The Skrull Soldier, while making perfect sense in terms of Secret Invasion, still came totally out of left field when the SKUs were released back in February. While popular guesses for the set included Winter Soldier, Hydra Soldier and AIM soldier, nobody guessed Skrull Soldier until he was shown at SDCC.

Hulk Wave 3

Rick and Alex wrote to point out the $61 price tag that a Vulture set recently went for and also to point out some of Hulk Wave 3 hitting eBay. While our semi-official policy here is to not link to currently ongoing eBay auctions, many of you have probably already seen them for yourself.

Entertainment Earth still has complete cases of the figures scheduled to ship in August (this month) for $80.00 so we should be seeing more of them at retail soon!

One interesting thing though: The pictures (both for eBay and of the packaged figure from SDCC) show a Green Hulk, and not the Red Hulk that both Entertainment Earth and Cmdstore list. Whether this is a last minute change or whether we'll be seeing Red Hulks in later assortments, who knows, but at least these early packs appear to be green Hulks.

While we wish we had prizes to give out for news submissions, hopefully Rick and Alex can settle with a no-prize (no official relation to the Official Marvel Universe No Prize, tm Marvel Entertainment Inc.)

Blade, Red Skull at Hasbro.com

The Abomination 2-pack for the Hulk movie wave 1 is available for pre-order now at Hasbro Toy Shop and today they've added the new Blade, Sentry, Red Skull and Electro 2-packs.

Those last 4 aren't up for pre-order yet, but they've got entries which is usually a good sign that pre-orders are coming.
