minimadman Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Is this the mate you are calling Arnold? It is actually Van Damm and the jacket he is wearing appears to be the same one on the Punisher War Zone Frank Castle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WookieFodder Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 You're right,I forgot about Jean Claude. Is that Castle's jacket for sure? I thought it looked different. I like my Gunner custom better than the actual one. I used Sgt Rock's face and Frankenstein shoes to make Dolph appear taller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsMarvel fan Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Could they not get jean claude's likeness rights? He definitely doesn't look like the actor the way the others do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobsterman Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 It was recently revealed that Minimates do not require likeness rights....no nose Really? That is possibly the best loophole in the history of loopholes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBomb Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Should have my TRU set today thanks to Luke's! I can't wait to see all of the weapons included! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Oh boy. I hope these sets do well enough that DST can offer these other fine performers from the upcoming The Expendables 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Sign me up for a Nicholas Cage, my collection could use some more bat-shit crazyness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 They should be talking to Adam West's people for the next film. He'd be all kinds of awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I think they need to go into space for the next movie. And fight William Shatner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtd20_2000 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Any update on the new Expendables set? I thought DST listed them to come out this past wednesday, but nothing at my comic shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Series 1 is out Luke has it in stock. Series 2 I think is Oct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Not sure what happened there. October might be the new August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I saw #2 last night. Holy crap, I cannot wait for these Minimates. I'm storing everything but Marvel right now because I'm trying to pack to move, but that Chuck Norris ("Booker") 'Mate is coming out the second they're in my hands, I don't even care.

groundhog7s Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Set #2 is up at tru.com right now also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'm kinda bummed that Booker doesn't come with his baseball cap (he doesn't take it off the whole time he's on screen), so I'll hafta get an extra Glenn or Shane. And I'd like a Billy the Kid {SNIPER RIFLE!!), even though he doesn't last long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky_dive Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Hey TA how was the movie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I only saw the extended Director's Cut of the first one, but I loved it. And I loved this one even more. More funny lines (Chuck Norris tells a "Chuck Norris joke"!!), great action. 50-cal sniper rifle turns heads into mist. Van Damme is scary-looking, and not the way they might've intended. He looks like he's wearing a bad JCVD mask. And his triceps are saggy. Still kicks like a frickin' Hitmonlee, though (compliment, lol). The final fight is brutally bad@$$. It's a touch cheesier than the first one, but a movie like this needs to be, y'know? There's some great dialogue between Arnold & Bruce. Of the old guys, Willis has aged the best. JCVD, and to a lesser extent, Schwarzenegger, the worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquis de Carabas Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) Of the old guys, Willis has aged the best. That statement implies Bruce Willis is merely a man. I'm convinced he's far more than that. I want to see Expendables 2, but if the buzz about cramming more celebrities into a third movie is true... that just seems like too much to me. I still like Nicolas Cage well enough, but I don't remember the last time I watched a movie of his and really enjoyed it. It seems like everything he's in nowadays is a failure, unfortunately Edited August 24, 2012 by Marquis de Carabas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroic Slacker Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 You didn't like Cage in Kick-Ass? I loved that he was channeling Adam West JCVD will always be my favorite action star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'm kinda bummed that Booker doesn't come with his baseball cap (he doesn't take it off the whole time he's on screen), so I'll hafta get an extra Glenn or Shane. And I'd like a Billy the Kid {SNIPER RIFLE!!), even though he doesn't last long. Hmm?? I thought he had his hat in the control art. I figured it was an alternate piece like Sarah Connor.

DSTZach Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I was wondering about the hat. Hope it's still in there. 9/5 for specialty set, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 The movie was great. Only thing I didn't like was how Jet Li was basically not in it. Can't wait for the new mates, though I wish the JCVD mate had sun-glasses. He wore those things inside; in the dark! :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
