Marvel Universe Nick Fury First Look – TheFwoosh.com

Pablolobo at TheFwoosh.com has acquired an early figure of the Marvel Universe Nick Fury exclusive figure.  Upon closer examination, it looks to use the Daredevil / Bullseye body from Marvel Universe wave one.  Don’t be taken aback by how the mouth is sculpted – it’s shaped that way so you can give Fury a cigar.

Normally I avoid those ebay auctions where a figure falls out the back of a truck in China. But for some reason I felt the need to take a chance on a auction for the upcoming Marvel Universe Nick Fury. Without further ado I give the first look.

Marvel Universe Nick Fury Exclusive Offer Goes Live

The Nick Fury offer went live, at http://marvel.com/digitalcomics/nickfury, and it was just as described by Fwooshers who got some of the first figures of Marvel Universe wave 4.  There are some rumors right now that this will not be the only way to get our favorite cigar-chomping SHIELD agent – but nothing that I’ve heard directly, so take that with a grain of salt.

AFP’s Hasbro Marvel Q&A Roundup – 5/29/9

The Hasbro Marvel team checks in for the latest round of Q&A.

1. We’ll start off with a couple of questions about Marvel Universe. Now that you’ve got a couple of waves of MU at retail, what have you learned about the 3 3/4-inch market for Marvel? How might that have influenced the line for 2010?

The reception for Marvel Universe has been tremendous and we’re already hard at work on our plans for 2010.

2. Will the Marvel Universe Fan’s Choice picks be made as single carded figures for retail, or are you thinking of other options?  For example, Winter Soldier could be part of an “Evolutions” set with Bucky and the Alex Ross-designed Captain America.  Archangel, Mystique, and Havok could be part of an X-Men box set or be comic-based figures in the Wolverine line.  Mary Jane would seem a more likely pick as a show exclusive.  Any hints for the two bonus picks?  (One guess is Psylocke – are we right?)

We’re leading off with the first Universe box set at SDCC…so we’re definitely looking at other possibilities outside the realm of single carded figures.  Just take a look at the slate for Fall exclusives: 3 different multi packs and 2 Gigantic Battles!  That’ll give you a good idea for where our heads are at.  Hint on one of the runner ups – you don’t want to mess with him.
