I found the whole playskool heroes line (star wars, marvel, transformers) at my local target. I bought the lanspeeder and each of the star wars 2 packs... no sign of the marvel wave 2 though

They're at Toys R Us and Target now. I'm still on the fence about buying them as they're so darn puny compared to Imaginext or their previous iteration. They're just a tad bigger than SHS but smaller than Imaginext. If they were just as tall I'd buy them, but instead they look so wimpy.

I found the Blackbird at Target, it's $20 with Wolverine and Iron Man which seems a touch too high for my tastes.
What was worse was the fact that the price tag referred to them as "SHS 2-Pack"

We only JUST got them here - and only @ some Targets, no TRU. Got the landspeeder and thats it. Dont plan on getting anymore. But the fact that the price tag referred to them as "SHS 2-Pack" as jester said (plus NO SHS news @ SDCC), reiterates what I said earlier - its the beginning of the end. And I still havent gotten Hercules or the last wave.

Did anyone actually find Cap and Wolverine? I can't find them anywhere... were they delayed? I think these look more like the cartoon than the actual squads, which is bassackwards, but I liked the squads better. I LIKE these, a lot, but I can't decide to make a complete collection.
I need the Cap, so if you see one let me know!

I found some of these at Target last night and I grabbed 4 of the Star Wars 2-packs. I really like the articulation on these (neck, arms, legs and wrists). I am really impressed so far! I saw Some of the Marvel figures but I only collect the X-Men related characters so I'm holding off until I find Wolverine. I DIDN'T like that Spiderman didn't appear to have any of his weblines painted in though. And Hulk seemed a little skinny for my tastes. So far I'm giving the Star Wars line an A, but with what I've seen of the Marvel line so far, I think I'd only give them a B-.

FYI - I saw the spidey playset for this line in TRU, but it was next to the SHS - NOT with the rest of the figures (which are by the Imaginext area).

I found the Blackbird tonight and after hem-img and haw-ing for like 15 minutes at Target I finally decided not to buy it and just wait for the figure release. Maybe if it was like $12 but for $20? Not worth it!

So I came across the jet again at walmart and gave in. I really like the Jet, and really would have loved it if it was released in it's original colors.
For those of u who've boughten the set, what are u planning to do with urs? I was thinking of painting it like it should have been.

Yeah, I just don't get it. Why can the Star Wars Jedi Force line have so much good detail and paint jobs while the Marvel line is way too simplified in design and sloppy looking in paint quality? While I think Jedi Force can successfully replace Galactic Heroes, Super Hero Adventures are a far, far cry from what SHS was. I'm starting to think I'm not going to bother with it at all.

Wave 2 is Spidey & Doc Ock, Wolverine & Cap and Iron Man & Silver Surfer, right?
