  1. Anyone ordering Vinimates from DST or BBTS (e.g.) might want to add the  various Godzilla Vinimates that are still available  to their order.   Those particular vinimates are really nice ,worth having & pose well with several Minimate characters.

     

    I know I keep on but there is one rule of thumb (pun intended) for a good Vinimate is .....if it has non-minimate type hands then it nigh on always looks great .  I detest the stylised hands which feature on most Vinimates .

    Recalled due to cigs would be weird since as pointed out by another we already had KP's big cigar from the start & numerous other cigs since along with dildos,bongs & blunts (you can tell me Silent Bob is just holding a cig but in my mind he ain't smoking tobacco with that piece).

    "Dildos ,bongs & blunts*

    We'd hear it from the people of the town

    They'd call us dildos,bongs & blunts*

    But every night they'd all come around

    & lay their money down"

    - Cher ?

     

     

    * I couldn't think of anything that rhymed ?

     

    Whilst I'm at it what was the real story behind the 'Bluntman & Chronic " set ? Was it really shelved/withdrawn ?

  3. I'll elaborate on cylonchaney's stuff.  I had received a rather magnificent load of this guy's vehicles , "amazing stuff" thought I  .  Over the next day or so I went back to the box they were packed in , lifting out the ships & studying them yet completely disregarding the minimates that were packed within the box . I do still get a kick out of Minimates but TBQH I just thought  " hey the guy's even packed a few BSG 'mates for me !"  I was totally immersed in the ships .....then ....& only then..... it clicked :banana: ......

    ...they were cylonchaney's workmanship .......they are that good :yes:  

  4. Forgive the necro thread .

    I was inspired to hunt out this thread after seeing an US eBay listing for a Desperately Seeking Susan 2-pack which stated that the pack was ' RECALLED ' .....I don't recall that but I have been known to be wrong ?

    That aside , reading back through a fifteen year old thread was, to me at least, very interesting !  :huh: 

  5. I live in the UK & I often buy stuff from the US , mainly toys that I might see on US eBay etc.  Shipping small items directly (individually) to the UK is expensive so I'm looking for a patient, reliable person in the US who would be willing to become my US 'storage centre' . I don't buy massive amounts of stuff but it is much more practical that I use a US address to get stuff sent to , with a view to re-sending it all, eventually, to the UK.  I am a collector NOT a retailer/seller . 

    It's a bit like a 'pile of loot' -when the pile gets big enough the 'storer' sends the stuff to me , I of course pay the shipping & any other out-of-pocket expenses . I will rely on the 'storer' to store ,pack & ....here's the worst bit ....deliver the stuff to the post office etc.  It could be a big box !  In essence I rely on the sender ....entirely .

    I, of course, don't expect anybody (& wouldn't want anybody) to do this for nothing :no:  

    There have been several people (here) over the years that have done this for me , it has always gone well & I am truly grateful to them.  I am entirely sure that any of them would (if you wanted) vouch for my sincerity/honesty .  

    If anybody is interested , please PM me & I'll answer any questions.

    I have a request that I admit I have no idea of the labor involved. Since we have these amazing wing sets from the new D&D line that do not fit any preexisting wing harness, I was wondering about the prospect of someone designing 3d printed versions that are already set on a harness to be used with other characters. I would love multiple set of Venger-like wings to make different characters with. Does anyone have recommendations for the time/cost of designing and printing something like this? Is there anyone out there doing anything like this?

    3D is the future of Minimates . No joke .

    Another classic about to go by the wayside due to Photobucket. Sigh.

    And also, thanks for all the laughs Mini_myte. Another person I hope is prospering wherever they are. 🍻

    I agree with your sentiments .  

    I often look back through the 'verse , I did it today & many threads have been decimated:huh:
