This link is where you can buy almost all the waves of Marvel Universe. The figures are 3 3/4 tall, obviously the Hulk is slightly taller and I'm sure there might be a few other too, but I have not seen any over 4 inches.

Ah, thanks ZedHatch. That makes sense now. Cuz the selection I saw had Proudstar, Sunfire, Electro, 2 spidermans and a couple others. The OLD figures that are gathering dust were Blade and the fire guy from Fantastic Four. Either way, thanks for that heads up of why the codes are dead.
Btw, according to my ruler, Red Dynamo is over 4" tall. Like he's closer to 4.5".
Sunfire is a touch over 4" but that's cuz of his mask.
Proudstar comes in at the same height as Red Dynamo. CLoser to 4.5" than 4.25"
As for Deadpool and Maverick, well...

Dynamo (and war machine as well) make sence to be so tall cause dynamo was huge in the comic (WM was as well but coud have stood to be a bit shorter for the fig). Warpath (Proudstar, wish I could find him) would make sence as well. Again as the teams "Strong Guy" he is a bit taller than the rest.
Deadpool and Maverick what-
Also which Deadpool (Moive one is shorter).
The Wolvie Line in general had better scaled Wolvies IMO, the MU versions were just too tall. However nothing yet can beat the Superhero Showdown version of Colossus, try to find that if you want one (and can't find the MU or WO versions). One of the most excellent 1:18th superhero figs ever produced. (and is around 4.5 but not too tall, for him I mean)

Might just have to get me one of those Punisher figures. He's the only comic I ever read.
That and Nomad, but I don't see Marvel putting out a figure for a guy that only had 30 some odd issues.

One of the two versions of the punisher I have. The first version makes him look as old and crusty as Grand Moff Tarkin in Star Wars and this version makes him look too "Cartoony"....I wish they would make a version of him from the Movie "The Punisher: War Zone" I think Ray Stevenson had just the right combo of weary and menacing to him to bring the Punisher to life!

While true about the number of issues Nomad is still a popular character, he has had more of a supporting role though (Along side cap mostly) where I think he fit much better anyway. Hey they made a bucky and he has had NO comic series (can't count his run as cap since he was filling in for Cap IMO). Also they made a Guardian as well, has he ever had a solo series? And crap they did Union Jack, hardly anyone knew who he was at all.
Also the reason the comic only ran 30 issues was the poor writing. I think they expected the speculative market of the time to carry the series and of course that fell on its head.
Characters I want ASAP
Rouge
Darkhawk (From the sounds of things he actually has a chance).
Sasquatch (Yeah I am an old school Alpha Flight fan).
Demi-Goblin (OHHH obscure there LOL)
Drax
Original Captain Marvel (AKA Mar-vel)
Moonstone (and no the Ms. Marvel head swap doesn't count)
Songbird
Giant Man (Gigantic Battles of course)
Ultimate Thor
Invisible Woman (I mean complete the FF already)
Red Guardian (I am hopeing in the cap line with his movie)
Ares (why not more Dark Avengers).
Dr Strange (Hello Defenders need completed too)
Ghost Rider
and to be totally obscure
ZZZAX
In gigantic Battle format LOL
OK the last one was a joke, but I would buy it if they made it.

Yeah, I'd love to see Nomad with a baby Bucky straped to his back. I'd also love to see Jake Gallows aka Punisher 2099, and one from the UK Marvel named Motormouth. Those were the only titles I ever read with regularity.
From DC, I'd love to see Lobo, barely got in to him when I quit reading comics. I'm sure they make a figure of him and I could have sworn I saw a poster for a movie coming out.
