Scythe Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Thank you, Luke! Going to read it now! Thank you for being so helpful and overall fantastic customer service right there. It means a lot. Edited April 28, 2014 by Scythe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I think Lizard looks amazing. I kept picturing what these would look like in my head when they were announced, and everything looks exactly like I imagined. I hope we get more product of this quality in the future.

Scythe Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 As do I, I already told everyone I possibly could about this set, even people who aren't collectors of any sort but generally like little, odd toys that're especially Spidey fans and yeah, already two of my buds would like to get a set along with me.

boyd Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 You guys should have seen Delta eyeing up Lizard at the party, and plotting his next epic Battle Beasts custom. He's not the only one. Those new Lizard and Carnage hands have some great custom potential (Reason #31 Why You Should Order Another Set). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Gonna get four. Want the extra's. Want to help Luke. Lizard and Dock Ock are beautiful! I also love that Doc Ock has standing tentacles. I hope he comes with another two to display him reaching out with all four. And it also says that Lizard comes with a classic head in the description on Luke's page. I'm keen to see what alternate look that is, as it's mentioned in the same bit about extra parts. Maybe a new, non-sculpted head? Edited April 28, 2014 by Mystery Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Sorry people don't like the Lizard head. Maybe a Battle Beasts snake head would do the trick for you. Comparing Minimates to Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark costumes only makes Turn Off the Dark look better.

The doc ock tentacles rotate and removable ( had the pleasure of popping one back on for extra pics at the meetup) unless things change, you'll be able to swap and move them around.Just want to add, I really like the lizard, looks great in person Edited April 28, 2014 by Nervous Rex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Another reason to buy an extra set, you can never have enough tentacles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I think that was BHM's cue for an off-color joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pappymojo Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I think the promo package shows the Lizard from the wrong angle. If it were looking down, the size of the head would be less blatant. I hope, hope, HOPE that Doctor Octopus comes with at least one tentacle that grab another minimate figure in some way. How great would that be?

youbastards Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 He needs a cue? Mark my words, this set will sell out. I don't think it's coming with alternate tentacles, but I was able to get Ock into a cool pose and have it stand in place without using a display stand, the thing in an engineering beauty. The first Doc Ock toy with moveable tentacles that can actually stand on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Another reason to buy an extra set, you can never have enough tentacles. I thought the Sailor Moon license was still under wraps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Yeah, he only has the four tentacles. But he can definitely stand without bases, if posed right. Bases just help a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostisfire Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 After seeing the newer pics I have to say, I'll be surely buying 3. My plan is pretty much this: Set 1: Regular looks. Set 2: Alternate looks for Lizard and Sandman and quick customs of normal Cletus and White Suit Ock. Set 3: My versions of the regular looks (Bulked up Lizard, Muscular Ock and Monster-Ock).

VulcansFury Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I don't mind the Lizard head, its his hands that look out of proportion and bugs me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that several new pieces were sculpted for this set, including the Lizard head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a new, non-sculpted head? If you get two sets, you can swap out the tentacles probably to get that look you want. I think the Classic head is the Connors (non Lizard) head.

Nebraska Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I love this set! Definitely buying 3. I can't wait to use an extra Cletus head to make a regular inmate Cletus before the symbiote atttached itself to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pk13 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 This set could be filled with pieces of broken glass and banana peels and I would buy one to support Luke's Toy Store. The fact that it has four great figures with nice alternate looks and great QC potential means I'm in for two or three to open. And even though I'm an opener, I'll get one to keep packaged to commemorate the great accomplishment by LTS of getting an exclsuive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 It's a ballsy move to have a spidey set with no spidey but this was definitely the way to do it. These did look great and I got to see Luke playing with the prototypes at the meetup. They are very "partsy" and I suspect we'll need at least 2 sets to satisfy our "Can I display him that way" urges. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogi Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 How does Doc Ock's arms attach to the figure? Do they plug into the back like Hope's Jet Pack or do they have a piece that connects around the neck or waist? I'm trying to figure out how easily I can use a Kingpin torso for White Suit Doc Ock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonel America Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Well I absolutely need one, but now I have to see if I can justify buying three for extra goodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
