  1. Ok, so here goes... Tetsuro Shimaguchi is a "Samurai Sword Artist" who did the sword play choreography for the movie and was given the role of 'Miki' by QT. The girl Crazy 88 was played by Julie Manase and was referred to as "Crazy 88 #6" or simply "#6". She was originally called in to teach Japanese stage combat to the lead actors and QT offered her the role. It's also kinda cool to note that her father is Sonny Chiba.
  2. I'd have to say a original Four Horsemen set with a updated Apocalypse or X-Man in his original blue and yellow outfit.
  3. I went to visit my hometown and found two of the Cap through the ages packs for $1.78 apiece at the TRU there. That was the extent of their minimate selection.
  4. Damn,when i heard about Angela I thought we were finally getting Spawn Minimates...
  5. My store is the exact same way. Only they have "buy one get one 40% all ironman figures and playsets" on the ironman minimates with them at their regular price.
  6. Finally found them in northern california today. The only janeway/seven pack had the messed up face seven so the cashier decided to knock 10% off my purchase.
  7. I've been thinking about using a extra wolverine to make a Darkclaw with.
  8. I checked my store here in northern california yesterday and saw nothing but then when i went there today they had four empty peghooks with the tags for them on a end-cap that had just been put up. I asked the floor associate and he left and came back a few minutes later and said they didn't receive any but to keep checking back each day
  9. Yes! Just take Mr Negative's body, Agent Zero's chest and hands and then use the Khan head to make a Mr Roarke!
  10. Found em here in northern california yesterday.
  11. I wonder if this sale would drum up enough support for a Golden Girls Gone Wild boxed set of 'mates.
  12. Ripley must've been in hyper-sleep too long, cause she sure needs to shave.
  13. The Borg with Picard kinda reminds me of Hugh from the episode 'I,Borg'
  14. I was reeeeally hoping the Borg Queen would be included in the TRU assortment. My LCS isn't very dependable when it comes to getting in minimates.
  15. I've been getting the same thing from firefox on Marvelousnews for the last few days.
  16. So far the only store around here that has them is TRU and they had alot of em. I picked up the Loki's escape with the S.H.I.E.L.D. truck since i could handle the $2 price increase over the $10 one for the Quinjet. Everything i saw referred to them as 'alien soldier'.
  17. Found a case on the pegs at my local TRU this afternoon. Managed to get two sentinel/ryu sets and one of each of the others. I really didn't care for the spiderman, but i wanted that chris redfield
  18. i went to my local store yesterday and they had all minimates except the marvel ones (and the only ones they had of them were the fantastic four series and the stiltman packs) on clearence. there was a $4.98 tag for the halo mates but it was empty and the only thing i found halo-wise was the warthog for $9.98. i managaed to get the MAX special ops set for $3.98 while the smokejumpers were $4.98 too
  19. maybe they're finally going to make World of Warcraft minimates
  20. I work at a store here in northern california and i check the computer regularly and haven't seen them yet.although we have 24 as 'pending'. did get the halo mates in and sold out of the two packs in one day and have 3 warthogs left.
  21. I had started collecting minimates since the first 5 packs at toys r us and had almost a complete set with variants and all the C3 sets and had just gotten a complete set of series 18 and 19 with variants and the sisko variant star trek pack when i went on a trip to housesit for a friend.while i was gone my former sister didn't bother telling me the man buying my parents house where i was living stopped paying the mortgage and it got sold at auction.the day after the auction the new guy who bought it broke in and threw everything of mine away and let his mexican cleaning crew take all my electronics (including my desktop) and dvds and even let them take over $900 in legos.needless to say i had a box with maybe 15 minimates in it that was in my car and that was all i had left.i was lucky i had my Apocalypse(my favorite) but his hoses were in another box and i lost my archangel variant
  22. Finally got a chance to get to the TRU nearest to me and found one set of hb/gh which i snagged,and three sets of lj/bb along with a bunch of sets of the others,and two pegs full of iron man 2 second series.They also had new ghostbuster minimates in about 3 different spots
  23. heh i won something through their 'free toy fridays' on myspace in 2007 and never got anything luckily i never hold my breath for customer service from anyone.
  24. I found em at the store here in the roseville,ca area. I picked up Thor/Loki and Klaw/Storm. I really like the Storm and had been looking forward to getting her,but I was kinda not very interested in Klaw til i took him out and looked at him The Loki is great too,but I don't like Thor's new chest/cape piece.It's too bulky and makes him look like the old Kingpin minimate. I hafta say the Ultimate Thor is my favorite
