Don't know of any at this moment.
My order from BBTS arrives today, so I'll have an extra set.

hasbro emails have not had a promo code for quite a while.
jester, if X doesn't want your extra set I'll take it. my car is not running well enough right now for me to go hunting all over nj for these, and my kid really wants them.

You can have them b3n, I was looking at HTS because I wanted to grab some of the Wolverine packs I missed with the new wave. Plus, I've got three old 2-packs at my house I don't need, so once I see the new wave in stores, I'm just going to swap them out with the receipt.

Wow, I made it to Hasbro before they went out of stock. It's my lucky day.

Got my Wave 18 at Walmart (N. GA) today. Left the Shocker and Jean Gray as I had em.
I heard that HTS still takes Thanks10 as a a one time 10% of total order promo code, you can't use it twice from the same email/account. I used it in early January so I'm not sure if it is still active.

Just got my Wave 18 set today (from Amazon.co.uk), though I'd have to wait months for the wave to reach Uk.
I'm really impressed with this wave, new figures or new molds, no repacks!!
I love the Abomination (bout time for a comic version, don't collect movie figures), Scarlet Witch (I can put my custom Scarlt Witch on my enemies shelf as she started out as a baddie and did kll some Avengers) and Dr. Doom (I like the mask and sword).
Can't wait to hear about future waves, personally I'd like more X-Men and Avengers (new characters, not repacks/remolds).

Just got wave 18!!!
I love Scarlet Witch. I have her displayed with the brotherhood, but that may change depending on what color suit they decide to paint Quicksilver. I keep the Magneto kids together.
Thor looks really nice, too. We haven't had a classic Thor since Wave 1, so this is a welcome addition. Some people think that he looks a bit stretched, but you need to consider that Thor is pretty damn huge in the comics. He's over 7 feet tall. I replaced the original without much hesitation. I only wish that his hand wielding his hammer could rotate. They gave Abomination a rotating hand, but not Thor. It makes no sense.
Reptil was kinda cool. I added him to my display, as he has made an appearance in the comics. I do love dinosaurs, too. I just wish they gave him a dinosaur head instead of the goofy red face.
Dr. Doom looks kinda cool too with the Infinity Sword, but I received my Doom's castle today, too, which has a far superior Doom IMHO.
Overall, I'm really happy with this wave.

I saw an interesting old assortment at Target today but was thrilled that it had Ghost Rider with Flame Cycle. It's a different mold for ghost rider than what I was used to complete with chain around the torso and a much better flaming skull.
If any one has an extra Thor from this new set and is using it for a custom minus the arms I could use the arms.

I hit the Target that hasn't had anything new in a while expecting to find nothing, Strangely enough, it's like the person who stocked the isle knew I was coming since there was one of each pack of wave 18 (except two of Scarlet Witch) and Shocker and Marvel Girl packs. Some strange things about this wave, like why does Abomination get wrist articulation, but Thor and Doom don't? And when I first saw Doom and Thor I wasn't exactly thrilled but they look much better than their wave 2 and 3 counterparts. Now I just need Hasbro to rerelease Shang-Chi and Kang and I'll be pretty much set for now.

It's funny. I found Shang Chi and Kang a long time before I found Marvel Girl and Shocker. Also, I found with a bit of work, the turrets from the playsets can fit into Abominations hand. But if you're worried about damaging it, you may not want to take the risk.

Picked up Abomination/Thor and Scarlet Witch/Spider-Man yesterday at TRU Southcenter. Also took their last Spider-Man/Tombstone. The Abomination pack is noticeably heavier than just about every pack.
I keep thinking I should buy those Bucky Cap/Motorcyle packs I see at Fred Meyer because I haven't seem him anywhere else.
