  1. its kind of wrong headed to use douche for a woman's product and then power tool for your example of a mans product. A man would NEVER use a douche on himself (unless he miss understood what it was for and tried to clean his ass or something), but women, believe it or not, DO use power tools... maybe Frozen erectile dysfunction pills is more the example you wanted? Like Tony Star selling douches, it includes a built in joke about cold effecting wieners without the unintended (I hope) sexism that women dont buy power tools. I mean Frozen Power Tools?! Whats next Superhero Cookware?! http://www.geekalerts.com/marvel-cakelet-pan/
  2. Big Hero 6 made $600 million world wide, Frozen made over a BILLION knocking Iron Man 3 out of the top 5 all-time highest world wide earners. deal with it kid, Frozen deserves and will get minimates before Big Hero 6. (But let’s not fight: I WANT BOTH, DAMMIT!) Next time post it here: http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.php?showforum=4
  3. This thread makes no sense since the new license is Frozen anyway
  4. How can they make DC Selects though? Mattel has such a hold on the license NECA couldn’t release their 7 inch Keaton Batman as anything but a freeium DVD add-on. As to what else can support that much product: Frozen Everyone’s making a ton of Frozen products these days why wouldn’t DST want a piece of that pie, especially when they have the NBX license already and it appeals to the same Hot Topics crowd. -Selects: Elsa, Anna, Olaf... and like every other company who makes Elsa her nose will be wrong so I won’t buy her and be angry I’m again denied an Elsa and Loki (sh*t... is there a Select Loki?!) in matching scale. -2-pack: Coronation Elsa and Anna (I’d say child Elsa and Anna, but that’s probably more likely in a 4-pack with their parents as series 2) -Box Set: Elsa and Anna, Kristof, Hans, Snarf-style Olaf
  5. F**K YEAH ZOISITE SAILOR MOON AND SAILOR V!!!!!!! I’ll get excited about Pluto once she’s painted... it’s like they’re saying “oh we didn’t forget her, we just know Tuxedo Mask and some variants will sell better”
  6. I can do without Super Sailor Moon (or any upgraded Sailor Moons really, the original is fine by me) but I’m happy to see her because it MUST mean Sailor V is on the table...
  7. its not really that hilarious (Jesus stops looking like Jesus after like 3 minutes, thus ending the only joke the movie had)
  8. They choose the bigger set for Ghostbusters (as opposed to the set that was just an Ecto-1) but it never amounted to anything but an Ecto-1 (I want my f**king modular Ghostbusters firehouse Lego!!!) I’m excited for Doctor Who legos, they can hang out with Abe Lincoln, Doc and Morty... but now someone needs to find a way to make Bill and Ted into a viable set.
  9. I signed up for the first month... I want that 6 inch Hulk Buster Pop (it’ll look great in my minimate armory, like as a giant robot) I’ll probably drop it after that since it’s nearly $10 extra with tax and shipping and I don’t wear novelty shirts (which eats up $20 or so of “$50 value”) I’m willing to spend $35 on the Hulkbuster because I know it’ll be more on eBay, but I can’t imagine an Ant-Man item I’d *need* so bad I’d be willing to spend $35 on. One of my co-works gets Lootcrates and she seems happy with it, she gave me an ugly Joker-as-Batman-Batman (what the product was seriously called) Pop! from one of them because she didn’t want it... but she wears novelty shirts though, so to her it’s probably “buy a T-shirt get free stuff” and not “buy a T-shirt you don’t want to get a thing you do want for slightly over market price instead of eBay’s CRAZY OVER market price” which must seem like a better value.
  10. I like to think everyone who has found them is just too shy to say anything I think it goes a little like this, played out in hundred of homes across out great land, in fact the guy who goes to the very TRU you also shop at and left a full wave on the pegs is thinking this right now: “well I should let everyone know they’re out... but I don’t want to brag, plus I’d feel bad if my TRU got them first and someone else has to wait two week... plus, my phone doesn’t take good photos and I’d be SO embarrassed if someone said ‘pics or it didn’t happen’ how could I defend my gentlemanly honor?! You know, I’m sure someone else will say something in an hour and I can chime in with a ‘me too!’ and that’ll be enough” THREE WEEKS LATER (read in the Spongebob time narrator voice in honor of the new license!) “Gee Wiz, still no one I can reply ‘me too’ to! Ah, golly, I don’t want people to not check their TRU’s if these are out, but I REALLY don’t want to send them to TRU if mine just got a sample case and everyone else won’t get them for another few weeks... plus I got a better phone but I already swapped around parts to make my perfect Vision and Quicksilver so I’d feel really bad having to explain why my pics aren’t accurate versions of the character... awegeeeze! what’s a guy to do...”
  11. (let’s see if photobucket link works this time or if it’ll just merge my link with the quote again... EDIT: About time f**king Photobucket)
  12. BBTS says Sailor Uranus is in my Pile of Loot... that was unexpected, I thought she was coming in Late February (with Neptune coming in early March)
  13. Other people already explained what was cut from Nancy, but Hartigan’s face wasn’t the problem it was the hair it lacks Willis’ receding hairline he’s had since the 80’s and while he does have longish hair for Bruce Willis in the movie, the piece used is down right shaggy. It combines to make the face look less like Willis then it should, it looks like a generic action guy, or maybe if you’re generous what Bruce Willis THOUGHT he looked like in the movie when he grew his hair out. If you put Senator Rourke’s (that’s the other guy who’s not Nancy, Hartigan, or Yellow Bastard right?) hair piece on him his Willisocity shoots up 70% and he looks pretty decent, the receding hair line gives him the Willisy hair shape we’ve seen for years and then you start to see the Willisiness in his eyes and mouth. But I shouldn’t have to sacrifice one character from a box set to save another (granted, I have no use for Senator Rourke, since the lines not going to deliver EVERY citizen of Basin City I don’t need the few minor screen time ones we get on my shelf, if you like them, cool, we just have different views on the world and that’s important and awesome. But just because I personally would have thrown Senator Rouke into my spares bin doesn’t mean I should have HAD to just to save Hartigan.)
  14. OH SNAP! AMAZING ALTERNATE FACES! I wasn’t thrilled with the first Sin City set (Nancy had a lot of parts cut making her very plain, Hartigan looks NOTHING like Willis) so I was expecting this one to be meh too, but I guess I was wrong (heads over to BBTS to add a second set to his order)
  15. Good news! Tina Fey is working on “Untitled Witch Movie” which she describes as “in the vein of Ghostbusters” (you may remember hearing about it when every news site on the internet reported it as “Tina Fey NOT making Hocus Pocus 2”) http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/movies/tina-fey-star-witch-movie-disney-article-1.1855459 so we may still get to see Tina Fey and Amy Poehler fighting the supernatural yet! (unless “Sisters” and “Ghostbuster (2016)” flop... in which case, oh well.)
  16. Since he’s probably a prototype or still just a render it wouldn’t matter anyway, we saw Wave 1 in full with no hip-holes up until they showed pictures of the production samples a month before they came out. I’m much more worried we haven’t seen any production samples of Joker/Ivy/Robin/Man-Bat (Man-Bat we’ve never even seen a finally articulation version of yet, they claim he’ll have 18 points but haven’t shown anything besides the 5 point mock-up) they said they would fix the problem before “the next wave” I’m beginning to fear they meant the Harley wave and wave 2 still has the peg holes.
  17. That poll *has* to just be a “generate excitement about figures we’re going to make” poll and not a “we’re judging to see if people actually want these characters” poll because there’s no way they wouldn’t make any of them. That said, the fact Dark Knight Returns Batman and Robin are on the list fills my heart with joy, not just because I love DKR but because it means they’re considering one-off character designs... I’m hoping this means Tygrus is on the table for a future release.
  18. Got mine today... One of my chickens (the only one I’ve fully opened so far) is very poorly made, knee peg isn’t inserted properly and he popped apart at the middle... the paint’s really sloppy across the board too.<br /><br />My wife likes them enough, so eh, money well spent... but I probably won’t be as generous with the Mythic Legends Kickstarter (if I even go at all.)
  19. Gargoyles are animals according to the creator (although he meant that in the theyre not magical creatures way, he also says humans are animals)... of course its not Gargoyles though, because that would be amazing and if DST had the Gargoyles license maybe Jean St. Jean could sculpt some amazing Gargoyles Selects and then I could die having a life with no regrets or unfulfilled dreams. Also its weird to me they wouldnt have Elisa or Xanatos in the first wave, I know Demona could fill both roles as a love interest and a villain but she was secondary to both humans in that regard, plus who wants Demona without MacBeth?! Thats like saying Oh no Macaroni for me thanks, this big old bowl of neon orange cheese sauce is all I want for lunch!.... it would also mean no Human Demona variant, and now were just throwing money away! See, Not Gargoyles, because I never get to be happy...
  20. good pictures! (I like that it looks like Vegeta’s being an a**hole and just kicked Wolvie in the face for standing behind him... haha! classic Vegeta) I’m sold... if DaTong does their second run of SS Vegetas before Bandai announces a Cell Saga Vegeta they’ll be the ones to get my money.
  21. As a weirdo who only likes things as ‘sets’ I’d say leave them in their packages. Leo and Mike on their own aren’t as fun as all four, but two promos in their bags look neat... then if they make a red Raph and purple Donnie this year you can get them and open all four at once and have a lovely set. (or leave them all four in their bags... I guess my answer really just sort of kicks the can down the road rather than answering it.)
  22. F*********************************CK!!!!!!!I already have two Shredders, did you really need to show me this so I got to go find a 3rd?! Well done, sir!
