homestar17 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Mine arrived Sat (I think?) & it's amazing!! Thank you again so very much! I haven't taken it out of the baggy yet (which is weird for me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Mine arrived Sat (I think?) & it's amazing!! Thank you again so very much! I haven't taken it out of the baggy yet (which is weird for me). I cant bring myself to unbaggy mine either. I think its because I only have one. Normally I'll try to get a couple of each blank, one to open and one sealed. The unwritten gentlemans agreement seems to be you only keep one of these and share the love as much as possible with other members. T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacksun1520 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Mine arrived a few days ago and I'm completely conflicted on weather or not to open it. Awesome mate either way and I love how it has the tampo on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whywing Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I took mine straight out of the bag, how else was he supposed to hold Mjolnir? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vox Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Wow.. $50 on ebay.. I hope the seller becomes allergic to plastic and is never again able to smell the sweetness of a fresh opened two-pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastweaponmaster Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Well it took a little while but I finally received the C2E2 blank minimate up here in Canada, and coincidentally on my birthday. How's that for karma. Anyways, just want to thank TBT and Shane again for arranging the contest and sending out the prizes. May Minimates live long and prosper!

Kostisfire Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Mine arrive today as well (not sure if this is the contest i took part in but oh well) and i just have to say thanks to all of you for these giveaways. It means a lot to the people who can't make it to the cons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 We always had our fellow members in mind with this figure. I hope everyone that wants one, is able to get one without paying for it. So far, mission accomplished. Thanks for letting us know they arrive. Hopefully, one will touch down in Brazil soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, mission accomplished. Thanks for letting us know they arrive. Hopefully, one will touch down in Brazil soon. I'm ok paying to get one but I'm kinda hoping some become available for cheaper than $50 on ebay. Ouch. Zach mentioned that some of these were given to a retailer for possible sale? Anyone know who? Did Zach ever say how many of these were ultimately produced? I'll just throw this out there as well - I don't mind paying $50 for one if I know the proceeds are going to cover the operating costs of MMMV. Running a website isn't cheap and I appreciate being able to hang out in this corner of the Internet with like minded people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja Mate Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) If you're patient, they don't sell for $50. as a matter of fact, one (BIN) sold for $40 and another (BIN) sold for $45. An auction sold for $16.50. Edited May 29, 2014 by Ninja Mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm flabbergasted with the 'retailer' comment.....where'd that come from ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 No one should pay for these and NO ONE should be selling these. No retailers were given these for sale, to the best of my knowledge. That was never part of the agreement. If a retailer is given some and they include them in a sale, I can't stop that. There should be no need to buy one from Ebay or anywhere else. As for production, I don't think I am supposed to divulge that. Lets say less than 500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) I'm pretty sure Zach said he gave some to attendees that made big Minimate purchases at DST's C2E2 booth to help promote the site/community. I think that might be what Jatta Pake is talking about. Edited May 29, 2014 by youbastards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) I'm desperate to buy one (I almost won that 16.50 one, lol) but not $50.lol I have the worst luck, otherwise. Edited May 29, 2014 by Zexion_Armando Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I would love to have one of these too, but I'm not very lucky with contests or anything, so my only hope is ebay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prowlar Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I received mine today and I have to say I was actually conflicted as to whether or not to release it from its bag. This is a first since I always release my toys from their plastic prisons. It didn't take long for that to end and he is now hovering (with a Spider-Man stand) on my computer. Thank you, Shanester, for the Multiverse and the contests that allowed this minimate the freedom to fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
