HOLY CRAP that is SWEEEET. The first non-Hasbro, Superhero Squad accurate 2 packs. I can't wait. Is this all of the info we know?

I hope these aren't too pricey....I need to have that Abe and Hellboy 2 pk at least .They look like they'll fit in PERFECTLY with the SHS line. If so, this is the kind of thing Mattel should be doing with DC as well! The crossover appeal will be enough to drive the line alone....they'd sell a ton of them!

Well, I wouldn't say it was the first. Isn't the Doctor Who ones SHS-like?

I picked up a Red and Abe 2 pack at Newbury Comics today...best part? Got it for $5 change! And they're great little figures...perfectly compatible with SHS! I honestly prefer the HB from the Golden Army Soldier pack more ( Better pose, plus I prefer the Samaritan over the Big Baby as a weapon) but I needed little Abe so this set was a no-brainer. though if anyone buys multiples of the pack with The GA Soldier for army building, I'll gladly take one of the Red figures off your hands!

Was walking around Boston on Monday and saw all of these at a comic shop in a mall area near Quincy Hall, if you know where that is. They also had two or 3 of the Dr. Who 2 packs. All were $9.99 per IIRC.

Because I'm timely if not anything, I got a review of the Hellboy 2 B.P.R.D. Buddies up today! I did Red & Abe. Full review: jestergoblin.com/?p=2467These two figures are well done, with great sculpts and above average paint applications. Stylistically, they fit in well enough with the Heroes and Action League lines but the big problem is price. This two-pack cost $9 for these two figures. While Galactic Heroes and Super Hero Squad can cost upwards of $8 a pack, Combat Heroes retail at only $5. I know the cost of licensing and lower production runs increase the overall cost, but I don’t know if I can say that these figures are worth almost $5 a piece. I’m glad a have a mini Hellboy and Abe to hang out with other heroes, but at that price point I’m not rushing out to get the other three sets. Oh and for comparisons of scale....

B.P.R.D. Buddies Review: Hellboy & Johann Kraus These two figures are decent and the paint and sculpting is much better than most of what Hasbro releases but that premium comes at a price. I just wish the articulation was better. If you can grab them for a few bucks off retail, they’re worth it but I still have a hard time recommending them when they go for almost $10 a pack.

FYI - I stumbled upon a two-pack of these in clearance at Toys "R" Us for only $2.25. It was Mr. Wink & Prince Nuada. So customizers may want to look around them.
TRU is about to do their big reset, so they're clearing out stock and putting a lot of older stuff on clearance so you might get lucky! I'm still looking for the Hellboy & Golden Soldier pack...
