groundhog7s Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Was able to find one complete set of TRU mates yesterday and found the Boxo Iron Man playset works better with Minimates than the papercraft IMs it came with: It's far from perfect, but I guess it's better than nothing.

Valo487 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Zach, is there any way you could tell us what month we're looking at seeing the boxset released? I'm wondering that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 This mystery "extended" set may be all kinds of awesome or it might suck. If it's all new armors, that's cool with me. I'll buy it. If it's all old armors, that's cool, too. New collectors can catch up and my wallet can take a breather. But if it's a mix... You'll be cool with it. Since a new Pepper is in the set, I'm assuming that it's all new armors plus Pepper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 That's my guess, but the secrecy surrounding it makes me think there might be more to it than just that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vox Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Some more clues would be fun... I really enjoyed the build up to disneys Peter pan sets. Speculation helps fill the time in between releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh2382 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 It really does feel like this boxset is more so tight-lipped than the others we are looking at seeing this year. We already know the lineup of the NOW t-bolts and have actually seen early shots of the Wolverine set, but I haven't seen anything said other than Pepper about this one. I hope to see some idea of a release date or mate number for this set. It's keeping me up at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaipo Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 but will it live up to the hype?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimadman Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 but will it live up to the hype?! Very little does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugo_ghost Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 but will it live up to the hype?! I hope it fairs better than the movie did for me. Crazy hype, leading to so much speculation... and fell flat. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 @ Jaybird: Is that the old Marvel Legends IM accessory? (Nice pic btw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Tony and Pepper are both in the box set. Should be out in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm 1:08 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Found them today at the Emeryville, CA TRU. I only like the IM armors but still haven't warmed up to the War Machine/Iron Patriot molds. A shame as I really wanted to like them but passed them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 And nice setup, groundhog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onyx_6 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Another tidbit about the box set? It is somewhat scene specific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Katz Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) So it's not the final battle? Because that's what it usually is with Iron Man movie mates... Did you see it O6? Actually I take that back, there always a mixed bag, but I do hope it's IGOR or Red Snapper with final battle Aldrich and Pepper Edited May 20, 2013 by zakkatz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vox Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 So the scene is... Igor holding up the iron supports Red Snapper takin' care o' busines Gemeni flying in the background (suborbitally? ) Battle Damaged Tony with bits of armor attached "She's on Fire!" version of Pepper with 1 armor arm Killian the Mandarin with Fing Fang Foom chest art Perfect 6 pack extended box set.. and with it not hitting until July, maybe there was time to review some fan favorite requests.. I can dream, can't I? What do you think? How close am I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I would buy that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TM2 Dinobot Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 If it is a Final Battle Pepper, she should come with a spare head for other Extermis soldiers. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaipo Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 id be down for that. I think Shotgun was featured more in the film than gemini though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Zach, will there be a formal reveal before this available to purchase, or is that up to the store that is distributing the set? Also, was I the only one that kept seeing Val Kilmer from 'The Saint' when Killian was introduced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
