DSTZach Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 On a billboard, being held by Digital Underground's Humpty, in his role as the official spokesman for a new chain of clinics that provide cosmetic surgery to animals, called... RhinoPlastic. Or open. I'd like to see it open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrobotC Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Rhino pretty much towers over other mates,as seen below. Heres a shot of the open hatch. Its a little hard to keep the hatch open since he is so top heavy,obviously. And heres a custom Green Goblin Im also working on. I may try to make Norman Osborn,too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Sorry our stuff doesn't look like Brobot's, everyone. Tooling was kept to a minimum to get them to stores faster, and I'm not sure that Rhino would have fit in the box. They ship next week, BTW.

youbastards Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 My TRU order arrived today, and while the 'mates are nice, I immediately noticed the webbing pattern in the white eyes and the ever present off center Spider-Man eyes. The packaging for these is beautiful, very eye-catching. Pix soon, camera charging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Aha! I love that comb-over tampo. Nice little touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) My 2 cents: - Lots of color mismatch on the Spidey's. - In hand, ASM1 'flashback' mate looks better than the ASM2 suit - ASM2 suit reminds me a lot of the Wave 7 Ultimate Spider-Man - Metallic webbing details would have made the ASM2 suit pop - Max Dillon and Electro are the standouts of the wave - The details on Goblin are nice, but I still think the design is atrocious. If anyone wants more specific pix, let me know. Edited May 9, 2014 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The webs definitely don't seem to stand out much on the Spider-man 'mates. I get what they were trying to do but black seems like it would have been a better choice for the webbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Huh. Maybe the Goblins weren't switched after all. Weird. But good, I guess. Hope you like them overall, YB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Collector Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The off centre eyes is proving to be a real pain. On a figure as detailed as Spidey it throws off the whole aesthetic. From your photos YB I can't see it too bad on the ASM2 figs, but that ASM1 mask is all over the place. Electro looks awesome though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you like them overall, YB.Yeah I thought the Grinning Goblin was TRU? Overall? I'm a bit underwhelmed. The paint mismatch and off center eyes really killed my enthusiasm. Hoping the LCS wave turns out nicer, as the production samples on display at C2E2 looked really good. Metallic Electro Is my big want. The off centre eyes is proving to be a real pain.

The ASM1 eyes are really off, but the paint color looks good.Considering the reduced tampo details we are getting on Spidey mates, I really wish there was more consistancy on the final products. I can deal with fewer details as long as the details we do get are better quality. Edited May 9, 2014 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Huh. Maybe the Goblins weren't switched after all. Weird. But good, I guess. Hope you like them overall, YB. Maybe that guy will re-order from Luke because LCS is grinning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I was a little worried about how that grey webbing would look against the red background. I guess it makes the figure looks distinctive but there's not a lot of contrast. Electro and Goblin are great examples of the pure Minimate form. Great tampos. And that comb-over better at least get an honorable mention in next year's Minimates awards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
