SlushyFrog Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Hurray I completed the set! I first bought six packs, after doing some light fondling of the bags to eliminate duplicates. After opening five, I could tell the sixth was a dupe, so I didn't open it and gave it away. Then, knowing which remaining three I needed and knowing what to feel for, I did some more serious fondling at a second GameStop to get the rest.

DarthBurkie Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Harrisburg PA had them. They are all mine now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcg031 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 As I try to collect them all....I realized there's no villains which brings me to my question what would be a good villain ?? Collectors?? Cerberus soldiers??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Well one person could be considered a villain. Repainting/part swapping on Liara, Wrex, Tali, Garrus can net all new friends and foes. But collectors would be sweet, any husk type, a batarian, geth, Cerberus soldiers, all would be great army builder types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) As far as army builders go, we have: 1)Eclipse 2)Blue Suns 3)Blood Pack 4)Cerberus (and all the variations) 5)Geth Troopers (and all the variations) 6)Husks (and all the variations) 7)Collectors 8)Rachni 9)Alliance (and all the variations) + The alien races like the Turians, Krogans, Asari, Salarians, Elcors, Volus, Quarians, etc most of whom have variations as well.

Captain Paco Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Just wanted to let you know, I have purchased 19 blind bags from a total of three different GameStop locations. I would have purchased more at one of the locations but he was chewing me out for fondling the packages because they did not allow that. So I got the four I had in my hand at that time. I got five as I previously posted from my local GameStop. They were Jane, 2x Tali, Wrex and Liara. So the fourteen I got from the two GameStop locations in Champaign, IL included: 3x John, 3x Ashley, 2x Jane, 2x Garrus, 2x Liana, 1 Wrex, and 1 Illusive Man. I was able to get one complete set of 8. I now have some that I can part-swap for some customs I have in mind. Just wanted to share what I had found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 GameStop has a no-fondling policy? Where's the fun in that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I can tell you all the gamestops I've been to didn't have that policy. One employee even had me find him a wrex. That guy was probably just a dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 So there should be a no-dick policy at GameStop. That would have a significant impact on their business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattallica Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 so i managed to find some of these, I felt and bought 5 packs and got five different mates a question on Jane Shepard, what is the difference supposed to be between the two hair pieces?

arnim zola Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Congrats on the good luck. So my friend is a Jane player, he said one hair piece was used in the 1st 2 games, then it was updated for the 3rd game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattallica Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 thanks, I guess what i should have said is can someone post a pic of the two hair pieces as the two i got were identical except for the lack of ear paint on one and i need to know what to ask for from CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 one is parted on the left and has her ears showing, the other is parted on the right and I don't think it shows off any ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonDiablo Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Minor tweaks to Garrus and you could have Saren. Make Shepard in his Cerberus armor and helmet and you could army dump that. Take that Cerberus armor, paint it black with a variant head and have Kai Leng. Collectors and Husks seem like great choices. I still say Zaeed, Miranda, Jack, Kaiden, and an Alliance soldier that could have head swaps to fill out Normandys crew. I know that's quite a bit, but I'm so anxious for this line to do great.

DarthBurkie Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I don't really care if we get any army builders/generic villians. I'm hoping we can round out the rest of the characters - Jack, Jacob, EDI, Miranda, Kaiden, Mordin, Zaeed, Anderson, Grunt, Joker, Legion, Vega, Samara, Thane and the Prothean whose name I can't remember. I think Kai Leng & Saren deserve mates. Hell, I'd even buy a Chambers & Conrad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also agree with crimson Diablo's ideas on army builders. I just want this to do better than halo, which while I liked the mates, it turned into a collection of mates you could set up like you were playing online multiplayer. And there is sooooo freaking much depth to the story it's like as close to star wars minimates as we are going to get anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem was that most figures were repaints, which got a bit boring after a while, since they were just generic soldiers. And yeah, I agree that ME has SW potential as far as character selection goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks to a trip to my closest Gamestop and some help from Dave, I've managed to track down everyone but Wrex. Yay! And now I have a great start to that Tali Corps I've been wanting to built.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minimate-Maniac Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Does anyone have a liara with good paint apps? I have four, three of which are blurrier than Sasquatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I just have the one, you have four huh? You happen to be keeping all those biotic blasts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 One thing I should note, is that I'm seeing quite alot of Mass Effect Minimate pictures on Tumblr, which is a good sign, right? Zach, how are these selling thus far? It also makes the wait REALLY hard. On one hand I want a case to support the line, and on the other I just want the figures now!

Minimate-Maniac Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I just have the one, you have four huh? You happen to be keeping all those biotic blasts? I gave the two best away and I've kept the very best and worst Liara. I keep buying them hoping to get good paint apps, but I don't think I am going to find one I wish to display. I hate blind bags.
