• Northstar & Aurora Marvel Universe Figures Shown At SDCC *UPDATE*

    Marvelous News have published some photos taken from SDCC 2013 of the newest announced Marvel Universe figure range that include Northstar & Aurora:



    The price on the display card indicate that they will be released seperately rather than a two pack, but this isn't confirmed yet.
    Either way they mark the third/fourth Alphans in the line after Puck & Guardian.

    With thanks to Marvelous News.

    *UPDATE*

    The packing shot seems to imply that the two figures are interchangeable in one packaging:



    Mike Deodato has published the full artwork for the packaging on his tumblr:

      Excellent! Looks like they're slowly releasing the whole team.
      Note the pointed ear on Northstar!

      They're still TBD but there are two more waves to come out first, so it'll be 2014 sometime most likely.

      Shows what I get for not paying enough attention... somehow I thought we were on the Puck thread!

      I'm seeing reports of these out and about in the wild. Or at least the US.

      From this year's SDCC it's looking like the Northstar has been pushed back to 2015 rather than missed completely:

      Excellent. I'll have to keep an eye out for him, too.
      Still don't have my Aurora yet.

      I wish they'd released him with his sister (which makes more sense than a year later)....Sigh.
