groundhog7s Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 What other Minimate set has had almost 40 extra pieces? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 The Batcave. Seriously......that is some box set Just lately I have felt we are moving into new territory in the Minimate world ..........well-played DST & AFX. I wonder if it will come in different colors as well. Different color per day. Like last years Vorin. It was actually just a clear blue Vorin at SDCC last year. Only 200 of that color were given away every day. But there was that more exclusive gold Vorin that was given away at the DST party and the minimates panel. Or you could possibly get one by handing a particular kind of baked snack item to a very specific person at the booth. Nothing exciting but here's the page it is from. DST will get some good publicity with that exclusive at the top of the list and at $0.00. http://www.comic-con.org/exclusives/diamond-select-toys They gave out a Gold one ? SDCC Promos : bhm prepares himself for the annual lunacy & the inevitable "how many,how much " threads. BTW ....if there's a party FFsake don't mention it to me.

pk13 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hopefully this one will be more along the lines of Blue Vorin availability instead of Gold Vorin availability for those of us not going to SDCC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Shadow Merk will be given out every day at the booth. If it was limited to a private event, I would not have given the info to Comic-Con. That would be cruel. So Blue Vorin availability. TM2, we may have shown a slightly purplish Vorin last year. We were giving the regular blue Vorin to retailers, as well, and I think I converted a red Vorin to almost-blue in Photoshop, because the blue samples weren't ready.

pk13 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Blue Vorin availability. That's great news. Blue Vorin wasn't terrible to find on the secondary market. Thanks Zach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will once again put in a request. We've got Red, Green, Blue and yellow (or orange. I QC'd the other one and can't remember.) Are we ever going to see Orange/Yellow, Indigo and Violet mates to match the other promos? No biggie, just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 That shadow Merk is AWSOME! I have been hanging out for a translucent purple minimate blank for ages. This is almost better! I'd be pretty stoked to see a different coloured translucent animal at each for for the next couple of years. Green Snake, Yellow Scorpion, Pink Spider, etc...

delta chameleon Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Purple Shadow Merk is awesome! I'll have to wait for the secondary market, but really looking forward to getting one of these in hand. That's a really nice color on him. And it's good to hear that his availability will be similar to the Blue Vorin. I was able to pick him up last year online without too many problems. All the exclusives that I have seen coming out of SDCC look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geohound Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Just caught this on SDCC's exclusive list, this year's Minimates giveaway is a Battle Beasts Shadow Merk?! Hmmm... wonder if there is enough there to put together an Ionic-energy form Wonder Man... ...is? Is that a real thing? I just... I can't even... I love you Zach.

groundhog7s Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 There were plans once for translucent blue and red Spidey's. I'd much rather see those made than a purple one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I really wanted a clear translucent Big Time Spidey... after all, invisibility was the purpose of that costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) If going translucent purple and marvel at the same time, the only way I see to go is Wonder Man. Edited June 26, 2013 by The Geohound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freaqualizer Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 If going translucent purple and marvel at the same time, the only way I see to go is Wonder Man. That was my intent, as well. But most of the translucents are featureless..so I just picked a big name in a non-molded mate that could be used to create said Wonder Man.
