Marvel Legends 2-Pack Kree Soldier and Skrull Soldier on New Sale at ToysRUs.com

At the start of the month, we noticed that the Marvel Legends Kree Soldier and Skrull Soldier 2-pack was being priced by ToysRUs.com to move at $13.98, just about what we used to pay for Marvel Legends back in the day.

Now they’re on sale again, but you’ll have to be an army builder to take advantage of it.

>> Marvel Legends 2-Pack Kree Soldier & Skrull Soldier – $19.99 (buy one, get one half off)

In fact, there’s nearly 500 products that are part of this BOGOHO deal that lasts through 9/25.

This deal works out to be just a little bit more than the previous sale, but hey, who’s gonna complain about pennies if you missed out last time. We’ve got new Marvel Legends 2-packs targeted to hit this fall, and Hasbro is aiming to relaunch the Marvel Legends line in a big way in 2012 – so it’s time to clear the warehouse.

For more pics, here’s my review of the Marvel Legends Alien Armies 2-pack from just about a year ago.

Expect these 30 sets to be gone pretty fast. Friday night by the computer, clicking refresh, sounds like fun!

Alright, you already know that Action Figure Xpress will be selling the 2010 New York Comic Con exclusive Outer Space Men: Beta Phase waves characters – Astro-Nautilus & Inferno at their NYCC booth (#1977) for just $24.00 per pair.

You also already know that Toy Tokyo will be selling the 2010 New York Comic Con exclusive Outer Space Men: Beta Phase waves characters – Metamorpho & Xodiac at their NYCC booth (#2871) for just $24.00 per pair.

You’ve also read below that the sales of all of these figures at the New York Comic Con will be limited to only 300 pcs. per figure!

What you may not have heard, or only heard rumors of, is that this Friday at 9:00pm EST, 30 full sets of these extremely limited figures will be sold exclusively through our online retail outlet – Store Horsemen!

That’s right, even if you can’t make it to the New York Comic Con (Oct. 8, 9, 10 – 2010), the owners of AFX & Toy Tokyo have graciously agreed to allow us to sell an extra 30 of each of the four OSM characters (Astro-Nautilus, Inferno, Metamorpho & Xodiac) as a set so that everyone will have a chance to own them!

Sales through Store Horsemen will be strictly limited to one set per customer for the first 24 hours. If, after the first 24 hours, there are any sets left to be sold, sales will be opened to unlimited amounts per customer.

After the alloted 30 sets are sold, any accidentally sold sets beyond the initial 30 will be cancelled.

You do not need to be registered to FANtastic Exclusive to purchase the sets this time. You just have to be there on time and be quick on the draw.

I’m very excited that the Four Horsemen have been able to jump start production on Gothitropolis. Scarabus looks great, but I’d like to find out what’s going on with the Gothitropolis variants, as there were a couple of pretty cool ones that were in the works.

The winning character of the 2008 FANtastic Exclusive vote, and the main character from the Four Horsemen’s property – Gothitropolis has finally gone into production! SCARABUS APPROACHES!

We received the first tooled samples last week, as you can see from the photos below, they look spectacular!

As production moves along, we should have a better idea of when the figures will be finished and ready to ship, but we expect to have things ready to go around the beginning of 2011.

Check out the images below, and be sure to drop by the new Gothitropolis section of the FANtastic Exclusive message boards to discuss the evil that is Scarabus!!

A shot of Scarabus with his evil little minions, the TIME KEEPERS! The Time Keepers are available RIGHT NOW through our very own online retail outlet, Store Horsemen!

And this final shot shows Scarabus hanging out with some already produced characters from the Four Horsemen’s property, 7th Kingdom. From Scarabus’ right are Xetheus, Queen Alluxandra, Scarabus (with Time Keeper) and the mighty Ramathorr! Ramathorr & Queen Alluxandra are still available through our online retail outlet, Store Horsemen!

Masters of the Universe Classics Chief Carnivus

I have come to dread the months that Sandman doesn’t pick up the Masters of the Universe Classics figure(s), because it comes to me take the pictures for AFP. And honestly, with MatthewK producing awesome shots each month, including yet another new custom diorama for Chief Carnivus, I’m at quite a loss for what to do that he hasn’t covered. But I’ll give it a shot.
