Why Did I Not Look At These Before?

So, my fiancee and I were out at Toys R Us this weekend.  Actually, we hit four different ones in a 24 hour period, but that’s a different story.  At the first one, we happened to notice the new Marvel Universe 3 3/4″ figures.

Why did I not pay more attention to these before?  These things are awesome!  Yeah, the larger size of Marvel Legends figures means more detail, but man, these suckers look extremely playable.  Plus, the smaller size might mean the ability for more characters, especially if they take a book out of G.I. Joe and Star Wars and parts-swap.

Wow.  These things suck in only one way — they have the ability to suck money straight from my wallet if I’m not careful.  Check them out next time you’re in the toy aisle.
