Marvel Superhero Showdown (MSS) is a new action figure collectible card board game thingy, jointly produced by Toy Biz and Upper Deck. I picked up the Spidey/Thing starter and the Captain America, Iron Man and Doctor Doom booster figures on Friday, since I had cash in hand and my Rocketmen box hadn't arrived (Alliance allocated my store down to ZERO boxes, grr).
( More behind cut. )
Do I recommend picking this up? Ehn. It's too expensive for just the figures, and I suspect the game will wear thin after a half dozen playings (games with a "physical challenge" never seem to go over well with adult gamers...if we had good coordination we'd be playing sports :) ). If you have a burning need for 4" superposeable action figures, you might try grabbing a couple.
