WOOT, NEW DOCTOR STRANGE! Pre-ordered 2 sets!!!!!!

Weren't previous army builder dump cases numbered X of 500? That's probably the minimum. I wonder if Luke could get an exclusive? Maybe run a Kickstarter to fund it so he doesn't get stuck with unsold merch? From what Zach told me, they could do a run of army builder for an authorized reseller. I wasn't clear what the minimum quantities involved are. Perhaps if Luke could get enough pre-orders, he could commission a set of AIM, HYDRA, SHIELD, etc.

He seriously needs a re-work/bulking up. (Actually, the Darkseid Minimate needs it even more...it's just pathetic for such a mega baddie)

Can I interest anyone in Pink Pearl?

Madame Hydra / Viper Enchantress Justine Hammer (in 3 variants...bio whips, Detroit Steel Armors 1 & 2) Titania and... Girl Ultron

Which one, girl or boy Quasar?

I'm not going to let a defrosted corpsicle tell me to wank it. He and his neo-imperialist buddy Nick Fury can go play Super Soldier / Infinity Serum fluid swap if they want, but leave me out. HAIL HYDRA!

Captain America commands people to wank it?

I just got my army builder box (2, actually) of movie Hydra guys with Red Skull, and as cool as it is, it just makes me want AIM, SHIELD, and old school Hydra builder boxes even more. :thumbsup:

So when does the second set with Sasquatch, Shaman, Snowbird, and Aurora come out?

Yep, that's correct. After the whole Malice affair, and her miscarriage, Reed condescends to her (as usual) and Sue basically tells Reed to go f**k himself (which, being Mister Fantastic, he actually can) and changes her name to Invisible Woman. Reed is my second-most-hated team lead after Cyclops. They're both just anal-retentive d-bags, but at least Reed is a genius, while Cyclops is just a holier-than-thou asshat.

I think you need to create an Immortus minimate to sort this out.

I don't think doing so would turn it green.

Okay, I'm going to modify undeadpool's guess to say: Thing Silver Surfer /Annihilus Firelord/Airwalker Morbius/Spiderman Blade Hulk/Absorbing Man (fear itself versions)

But a Hulk head on a Hulk body would just look like Hulk....

Okay, figures are a snapshot in time, named after what they were called during the time period the minimate is modeled upon. That makes sense. So, if that's the case, why is the Secret Wars "Captain Marvel" labeled as "Photon", when she was never called that during the Secret Wars?

New Avengers, Vol. 2, #8. Released January, 2011. Note that her Current Alias in the Marvel Wikia is listed as "Power Woman". http://marvel.wikia.com/Jessica_Jones_(Earth-616) They must have fixed that (hey...look...they can fix things!), as the version on Amazon says Sunfire:

Errr, but that article supports my point. "Doombot" is a retired term for the Servo-Guards. That's like saying the Power Woman minimate should called "Jewel", because she used to be called that.... errr.....WAIT....!!! OMG THERE'S MORE MISNAMINGS!!!! :ohmy:

So I'm reading Jack Kirby's Fourth Wold Omnibus, Volume 1, and there is a bit in there where a clone of Jimmy Olsen is turned into a giant, super-strong, Kryptonite-enfused baddie who looks just Jimmy Olsen's head attached to Hulk's body: Obviously, this is a perfect candidate for a custom minimate. I have plenty of Hulk bodies, but what should I use for Jimmy Olsen's head?

can anyone identify some of the other partially shown characters? In the very lower right-hand corner is Starfox's hips/waist/upper legs. But nobody wants a Starfox minimate, do they?

Agreed, If we deleted/closed everything that annoyed someone, we'd have about half a dozen topics and about the same number of members. In fact, we should hold this thread open and hostage until DST issues a statement recognizing their error and offers to sell those round Minimate stands in batches of 100.

So, uh, where do you get those lingerie Barbie dolls with the thigh-high stockings? Just, you know, in case I need to get a present for my niece....or something....

Sharp's should follow DST's example and relabel this ale as a lager, just to see if anyone cares or notices....

In that case, it's time you stopped slacking off in the publicly mockery department and do your duty!

But think of the children! You and I know they're not really Doombots, but what about all those young kids who get one as a present and learn the wrong name? It may sound harmless now, but fast forward 20 years into their future when they attend a ComicCon, use the wrong name, are publicly mocked, and then despondently descend into a vodka-fueled rage against the world and either turn into Whiplash or die of alcoholism.
