Nano Metalfigs

Just a heads-up for anyone looking for cheap figures for customs: Wal-Mart has started selling die-cast licensed figures pretty cheap, including a bunch of Marvel and DC characters. I picked up the Guardians of the Galaxy pack because several of those characters don't have cheap Heroclix options. The Nano Metalfigs are *slightly* larger, but not terrible. The GotG pack of 5 was less than $5, and they sell certain characters as singles as well.

Yeah we talked about these back during the summer...I personally use the Hulkbuster figure as it works great and is a ton cheaper than the Heroclix figure. Killer Croc and other figure that should be larger also look pretty good on the map with Heroclix. I picked up Groot as well. I may look again to see if I can find more than these three.

Human figures look a little wierd sizewise but hey it's a game so it's probably not an issue to some.

Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those.

Not any weirder than Dum Dum.

I found out that they were selling the Marvel figures the next town over (none here in Kzoo) but they were almost entirely sold out.

I don't have Dum Dum so there...

What figures are you looking for and I will see if we have them here.

Re: Nano Metalfigs

Have to look them over. I got all the combo sets, Guardians(5), Spidey(5) and Avengers (10). So I got a Hulkbuster. If you have an extra Groot, I would be interested. I have the baby version in the pot.

Just a bummer I did not head out that way earlier as I picked up at least one of pretty every other figure including WWE, Harry Potter, SF and Disney. Mr. Incredible and Animal from Muppets are pretty dope.

Oh, I saw some perfect Mario figures. They are for Monopoly and sold individually.

I saw some Mike and Sully figures from monsters inc...they would probably be perfect for the Heroes of Fiction guys since those figures don't have a "scale" exactly. Mr. Incredible would have been cool too but I think he was a little too much on the large size.

I'll look for a Groot for you. I think the potted one only came in the combo or I would have got him as well, haven't seen him in a single locally. Having different sizes would have worked great for the C3G Groot card...switching them out as he gets cut down to size.

Re: Nano Metalfigs

I have baby Groot. I believe that one only comes in the multi-pac, which I have.

Just found them at Target. They are not in the toy section but by the dvds. Still no Marvel though.

Seems like the Wal-Marts and Targets in my area have decent selections of these, including Marvel - last time I looked at least. Any figures in particular you are looking for along with grown-up Groot? I'll take a look next time I'm in the store.

Re: Nano Metalfigs

Is there actually a Grown-up Groot? I've only seen the Baby Groot at a couple of the Targets near me. (Philly area)

Re: Nano Metalfigs

Thanks mac. I will take a look.

A loose Hulkbuster would be sweet.

Re: Nano Metalfigs

I pieced together a Groot out of a couple Mage Knight treefolk after seeing someone else on here do it. Just gotta repaint him and he'll be cool.
