Exclusive Marvel Legends Ultron Variant Available with Subscription to Marvel Unlimited Plus

Marvel Unlimited Plus Membership Kit 1 Marvel Unlimited Plus Membership Kit 2

Our good friend Paul wrote in that you can get an exclusive Marvel Legends Ultron variant by subscribing to Marvel’s new Marvel Unlimited Plus membership. Marvel Unlimited Plus expands on the access to Marvel’s digital comics library with discounts on digital comics and on merchandise from MarvelStore.com, and also promises access to special events and promotions related to the various comic conventions.

For action figure fans, Plus comes with a collector’s kit, including the Marvel Legends Ultron, a variant copy of Age of Ultron #10,  and a personalized letter and membership card, all in a collectible Age of Ultron comics box. From the pictures it looks like Ultron has a more metallic paint deco than the version that came in Iron Man Legends wave 2, and also has a bright blue color in his mouth consistent with the Age of Ultron look.

Marvel Unlimited Plus costs $99, which is a $30 upsell over the regular Unlimited subscription, if purchased annually. If you subscribe monthly, a regular Unlimited sub would cost you about $120.

Border Patrol: Transformers – the frenzyrumble Edition

This week, I was amazed to see three separate frenzyrumble Transformers customs up for auction, all going like gangbusters. There were two previously owned customs going back on the market, and one directly from frenzyrumble – we’ll start with that one.

Transformers Masterpiece Soundwave by frenzyrumble – folks have started finding the new Masterpiece Soundwave at retail, but only one of you will have this customized version, with Soundwave and all five minions receiving detailed paint jobs – Soundwave also gets a red LED to light up his visor – ends Aug 29, 2013 09:28:27 PDT

Hasbro Star Wars Black Series Wave 2 Pre-Orders Are Up at Amazon.com

I had previously written that Star Wars Black Series wave 2 is up for pre-order at Entertainment Earth and BBTS. You can order cases there, which will come with one of each figure in the wave. Our pal Rodney wrote in with the heads up that Star Wars Black Series wave 2 is now available for pre-order on Amazon.com – on Amazon, you can order the figures individually. That’s useful if you already have a Boba Fett from San Diego Comic-Con, for example, or are only interested in specific figures from the wave.

They have an ETA of November 25th and are listed at $22.99. Wave 1 was first listed for that price, but eventually was lowered to $19.99. With Amazon’s pre-order price guarantee, there’s no risk to putting in your order now, because they will honor the lowest pre-order price automatically.

Pacific Rim Battle Damaged Crimson Typhoon by sabretooths_workshop – I love the battle-damaged paint job, but what really takes the cake are the motorized spinning blades and the light up eye, complete with separate switches and replaceable batteries – ends Aug 25, 2013 19:36:37 PDT
