Oh, one more remaining item – who will be the build-a-figure for the wave? I figure we’ll find out at San Diego Comic-Con in a couple of weeks.
The Avengers movie is set to have another record-breaking weekend, setting the second-weekend record with an estimated $103.2MM. And to cap this off, we’ve got the third and final part of Avengers: New Evil, the latest from Bill’s Comics.
