  1. Will the other boxset include the micromates as well? My SDCC boxset was missing Ant-Man's.
  2. I think there was talk of a new Nick Fury and for one more numbered Iron Legion minimate, so those two could possibly be half a boxset. I hope Mark 45 is in there too.
  3. There's the motorcycle seen here: http://stinkhead.blogspot.com/2005/01/ghost-rider.html It's from the Mega Bloks Alien Agency Burger Barn. Looks like the handlebars need to be trimmed to fit Minimate hands. I can't recall seeing any other compatible motorcycles that have been successfully identified like that one.
  4. Quake's arms are made from Terminator 2 Endoskeleton hands and Halo Shipmaster (Rtas 'Vadam) shoulder armor.
  5. Woo's chest piece is from an Expendables 1 Barney Ross, though I've been meaning to replace it with a new one because mine is oddly missing some detailing and seems a bit faded. The alternatives I considered were Ultimate Nick Fury and Vigilante Spider-Man.
  6. My favorite SHIELD agents Top Row: Clay Quartermain, Jimmy Woo, Gabriel Jones, Kate Waynesboro Middle Row: Alphonso MacKenzie, Valentina de Fontaine, Nick Fury Sr., Dum Dum Dugan, Alexander Pierce Bottom Row: Daisy Johnson, Sharon Carter, Nick Fury Jr., Maria Hill, Phil Coulson, Jasper Sitwell
  7. The green one is a "Super Food Robot" with its sticker worn off http://www.ebay.com/itm/Robot-Super-Mart-Gumball-Vending-Machine-Toy-Sign-/270750521372 http://www.littlerubberguys.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=22768
  8. The shuriken must be from Ninja Spawn then. They attach to a couple of pegholes on one of his outer thighs.
  9. They're in stock online: Prisoner Wolverine and Ninja Harada * Street Fight Wolverine and Boss Shingen Black Suit Wolverine and Hand Ninja Yukon Wolverine and Ninja Yukio * * TRU exclusives
  10. Squirrel Girl for me as well. There are many characters I do want more than her, but they each belong to a group of characters I want and I really won't be content just getting one and no other.
  11. I've bought two sets recently with either two left or two right arms on a single minimate. Then one of my Maria Hills has some surface warping on the torso. Also the occasional ill-fitting peg and that's it for the two packs. Nothing big. Its the boxsets that appear more prone to problems. Tampo details faded, sometimes rubbing off, unusually flat finish, warped belts, gloves, & boots, cloudy paint, malformed torso inner structuring, etc. Problems I've never really had with the two packs. Primarily impacted for me were Thundercats 1, Femme Fatales 2, Spider-Man Friends and Foes, X-Men First Class, and Curse of the Mutants. Also comparing same minimates from the Universal Monsters boxsets and two packs, the two pack versions look just slightly better with better tampo transfers and glossier finish. Fortunately I've had no missing accessories yet.
  12. The jumbled mess of a "Product Description" on each set details the whole wave along with UPC numbers, which you can match up with that of each set listing under "Additional Info". The two exclusive sets do appear to have sold out after verifying numbers.
  13. I think that just started with Onslaught. Hasbro has been doing this already for any character that has conflicting trademark for an existing toy out there. For Hawkeye I think Spinmaster makes an RC helicopter by the same name.
  14. This is my favorite incarnation of X-Force and probably my most wanted throwback X-team after 90's X-Factor (inc. Forge and Random). However it's all or nothing for me when buying throwback teams for me. This boxset + Rictor/Boom-Boom leaves four. Hopefully they're come quick or I worry they won't come at all. I was surprised we got Alpha Flight so quickly and even more surprised it didn't perform very well, so I don't know what to expect.
  15. The UPC# under Additional Info for "Marvel Minimates Assortments" is the correct one for the Hulk/Iron Man set and it went live with the other 3 sets. Couldn't really be anything else. I've ordered two of it and the Cap/Witch sets. Might arrive tomorrow.
  16. I'd buy a Melinda May and an updated Coulson. Not sold on the others yet. Maybe Fitz and Simmons if they come with cool gadgets.
  17. I had forgotten about these. Only saw the Teen Titans one before. Pretty tempted to buy those X-Men related ones. So yes, I would buy these in minimates scale, but I also suspect DST's license would not cover. Maybe build-a-base pieces would then get around it a la Marvel Select danger room?
  18. Yes it's flesh colored, no it's not the first, I know Nina Myers from a 24 4-pack is flesh colored, too... and I know this because minimates in dresses/skirts are a usuaully a good source for solid white or black crotch pieces for customs.
