The Scarlet Spider

Unless you absolutely need it in package SDCC vision is as simple as taking the new Happy Hogan and sticking any MCU Vision's head on it. Edit: and hands! XD

I've said it before - we definitely don't have what I would call a definitive Johnny Storm. Some of the sets are good but I want an all in one - Normal Johnny/Flamed Johnny and enough parts to make him half flamed like DST likes to do. Even if he was his own 2 pack I'd be okay with that. Then get Ben/Doom - a really good Doom. I like the ones we have but I feel like mates have come a long way and he could be a bit more menacing. Maybe they could also include like a white Cloak for him. Reed/Sue - hopefully some good pieces for Reed. Invisible woman hopefully still comes with both of those hair pieces from wave 48 as well as a new type of forcefield accessory. Gotta keep that mullet piece. Maybe the Controller for the last pack? Eh @Kostisfire? And then maybe Franklin with Valeria as a chase?

I get that the wave needs anchors. I'd be more apt to complain about the Vision or Goblomination

Dang I woulda liked a new Sigourney Weaver mate and Madame Gao is in need of one too.

I completely forgot about Walgreens 6. Definitely looking for that White Tiger pack.

If people wanted could they do a starting wave? 4 two-packs and Tru?

I've heard multiple complaints about the QC issues on Facebook as well. It seems like the paint is consistently applied poorly as well as the webbing being visible through the eyes. I believe @TheKrisLyons also had trouble with the food hand pegs fitting in as well. When you're already on the fence about the set because it feels uninspired and then you hear these complaints multiple times it kinda puts you off from getting it.

Yeah after hearing all these first hand experiences on how shitty the SDCC set is I don't think it's worth picking up to me even if I wanted something else off of TRU's website to get free shipping.

Yeah I don't even have one that's not for a custom "Right here we'll apply the paint... anddddd $20 mistake" I know this isn't the wishlist thread but I'm still waiting for a supernatural comic wave that coulda been a great release near the Strange movie. Another Dormammu would be great and an updated Blade.

You're not wrong. I would definitely Have a hard time finding that skirt.

Or make them impractical banks.

Has anyone else been thinking this with that one face? @Kostisfire?

I just don't know why they wouldn't since they obviously have a decent enough relationship to have the KH license for both Vinimates and Minimates, and a Marvel minimate license, as well as making statues/banks for Marvel . I mean it's not like fans have been clamoring for Maximates for a while now... even the static ones. Those sentinels can still go for a pretty penny on the aftermarket... if they were to make 8" Vinimates like that for sentinels I know I'd be trying to get my hands on at least 8. I'd probably even get 4" vinis of Wolverine and Spidey and DEFINITELY Hulk, Juggernaut, Rhino, and Thanos. With Infinity Wars so close I don't know how a Thanos Vini could NOT get made if they were able to make them. As well as the fact that people like myself who want bigger articulated mates would probably buy bigger characters in multiple poses if they made them. Like if they made one of the Rhino charging forward as well as one of him rearing up.

So are we never going to see even unarticulated vinimates of huge marvel characters we've been asking DST for since... forever? No (Gi)Ant Man or Fin Fang Foom? Or Sentinels? Just nothing?

@Mirymate that's a great way of looking at it. I'm a bit older than your son but secret invasion and civil war were among my first big events although I have fond memories of my childhood and seeing what I now know of some of Michelinie's stories and Carnage, Shriek, and Carrion in comic book shops. Mullet-esque Parker is one of my favorite Parker looks. Although going back and seeing stuff like Virtual Mortality's artwork and some of the jumpy scenes of the clone saga is eye opening now. If any of you comic veterans have any good classic trade paper back recommendations Im always game to hear em! Might help me get some new wish list characters.

I wasn't griping about the distribution on this, just of some exclusives like TRU and WGs

Pics!

Whoaaa office supply area or what?

Blind bags* and yeah I know exclusive distribution isn't DST's fault but it's frustrating nonetheless. I agree this wouldn't make me wanna quit but glossing over the tmnt thread we can see just how many minifanatics who wanted nothing else but to support this company yet had to go out of their way to spend their money so hard they quit that specific line.

You mean like the blind BAFs or exclusives that have terrible distribution? DST is much better at distribution than say Hasbro from when I collected BS 6" but it is still aggravating. Sometimes it feels like a chore to try to give them my money when as the consumer you'd think it should be easy to do that... but such are the times we live in.

There was a Mr. Fantastic WG mate?

I'd definitely love an updated fantastic four wave. I'd prefer their blue costumes but Thing's red and black costume is cool too

Awesome, I wasn't sure. I figured that was the case but context is lost on the internet XD Last thing I wanna do is bring down a thread too, that's a bummer.

@SCW snag me Ozy/Silk? My PayPal is ready!

Hope you keep your favorites and stop by once in a while @pk13!
