  1. Gotta say I'm pretty passionate about the minimate brand - I've been a fan for many years - 95% of my collection is just minimates and I've even made my own spreadsheet to keep track of extra's that somehow I wind up with (Something in the range of over 700 extra 2 packs) I go to NYCC specifically to check out the DST booth so ya when things like this happens it's a little upsetting I really hope this all gets squared away with the asm2 wave at TRU
  2. I also could not find TRU Wave 18, I did resort to ebay for those but because people were buying them for $3 or less the markup on ebay wasnt too bad and they came out to regular price more or less plus shipping Years ago I collected JLU figures - It got to a point where they were only releasing at Target and became super difficult to obtain - I sold my whole collection and the rest is history I've spent ALOT of time and money on my minimate collection and don't feel I need to be resorting to paying $60 for a wave of walking dead minimates.... When that starts to happen It's time to move on because either something is happening with the line or the distributor You may say walking away completely is a little drastic but I'm sure there are other collectors with the same OCD that I have where you have to have the entire line or nothing at all
  3. I've thought of the ebay route, problem is I buy at least 2 of each series and if they are this hard to find and this expensive now I can't even imagine what's going to happen going forward
  4. I don't follow the show or the comic but I was a fan of the minimates - I'm pretty bummed that I can't find these in NJ and it seems like the option of ordering online is long gone so I'm probably going to stop collecting these I was waiting to see if I could find TRU Wave 5 before buying Specialty Wave 5 but ya it's not happening
  5. I love minimates because... They are awesome! I've been collecting since the beginning and I was immediately a fan. I love the amount of detail they put into such a small figure my hobbies have changed alot over the years and I've given up on alot of lines and even collecting comics but I can't see myself ever parting with my collection of mates Thanks for holding the contest!
  6. Alot of the Jersey stores are clogged with past waves
  7. I love the way this set looks - Even though it's a little pricey I'm sure it will generate a ton of interest in the line
  8. Do they have a special way of locking together?
  9. Yep, that's right, I only did the symbols. I did them all for two reasons, as a precaution, and it gives a sweet shiny glasslike look just to the symbol. I'll try to get a picture of them. I use a tamiya clear brush on. It only takes about a minute to do them all. Just one dip, get the excess off, then one stroke across the symbol. Hope this helps Which one works best? I'm seeing that they have gloss - semi glass and flat.... Thanks in advance
  10. I've been on the fence about battle beasts for a bit, I've spent a bit getting all the color variations only - but I think this gold one sealed the deal for me and I'm backing out from purchasing this line - Just canceled my preorder for the 2 pack exclusive from bigbadtoystore
  11. Femme Fatales is in stock, I got my order notice earlier today... why it’s taking them so damned long is a good question though, I’d also like to know why. I've been wondering for quite a while now why it's been taking them so long to get stuff in... also sometimes they just get a few in then back to preorder it goes... The only thing I can think is that they are having financial trouble and their suppliers have them on a cash in advance status
  12. Customer service is definitly lacking zach... for 3 months I emailed pictures of a bad excalibur set I got I also sent in a email through the art asylum page and on facebook and no one ever bothered to send me one reply.... I'm a loyal customer too so it sucks when this is the service one gets
  13. Got my online order today... Angry Pufts You'd think someone else would have found one of the happy ones by now! I've also seen numerous angry pufts in TRU's in the area
  14. Bad Apple comics used to have sets of these available on their ebay store... I believe I've seen series 1 locally in one of those machines too if you need help with them
  15. Do you have recovery disks? If you do those will format your system and reinstall the factory image Alternatively there may be a built in recovery partition... when you turn on your computer hit f9 or f10 and that may bring up toshibas recovery utility which would allow you to format the drive
  16. In repairs I've done most customers neglect to install updates for java or adobe flash which leave security holes that are exploited by code on certain sites
  17. You should boot into safe mode.. that is the easiesg way to run those utilitied without issues... malwarebytes will remove this... when its all cleaned up make sure you update java to access safe mode hit f8 when you turn on your pc.... if your running vista or win 7 right click and select run as administrator on malwarebytes
  18. Not sure if this was mentioned or not I am at the con at the moment and the heroes and adversaries set is supposed to be exclusive to an online store called toy brigade and ya....its chaotic here
  19. I don't think deadpool is 100% the identical to Wave 28 .... The mask details looked a little different I was kind of bummed that there was no DST Promo exclusive for NYCC And ya it seemed like every booth selling toys had the AOA minimates Juggernaut is sick... great minimate
  20. Thanks for taking the time to check that for me I appreciate it!
  21. I'm going to try to hit the con all 3 days
  22. Thanks everyone I appreciate any help
  23. Thanks - I'll be sure to check that out it's not looking good though
  24. Hey Guys Just unpacked a C3 Batcave and something doesn't seem right. I have a Bag marked "Console" & "2F" and the bag with the base plates... am I missing a bag? Thanks in advance
  25. They poped up out of no where this morning and all were sold out
