Rheul Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Forgive me if this is common knowledge but I've been out of the game for a while. TMNT, will they be at TRU or specialty shops? Godzilla is looking mighty cool too. These days I need to be very selective about my toy purchases but TMNT is a must for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Turtles will be blind bagged to specialty and other retailers; TRU is still in the works. Is that right? I realize that I actually have no real idea what exactly is going on with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 TMNT will be available at both TRU and specialty as well as other retailers. Much more info here. I think TRU is one of the retailers that requested the blind bags in the first place, if I'm not mistaken, so they damned well better be at TRU!

hellpop Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I thought that Zach said that TRU was still up in the air... but again, I really don't know, it seems like so much has been said and speculated about this line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 So....anyone else a little frustrated by the lack of news today? Hoping DST has a Hail Mary ready for the weekend... Seems like that Chicago (?) con where the MMMV blanks were given out was the place to be for Minimate news. I actually like the idea that Minimates can get a real focus at a smaller con, so it feels a bit more special. With SDCC, you get so much other new stuff that it would be easy to overlook Minimate stuff in the shuffle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBMM1 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Sorry guys, I've been busy with the con. I'll take pics tomorrow and post when I get back. I'll also recap the panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 New Minimates on display: Mass Effect Grimm Fairy Tales Sin City 3 Pulp Fiction 2 Kill Bill 4 Godzilla 2 Sorry if people were expecting more. May show off Infinity and 60/19 at the panel, but we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Thanks Zach. No new Walking Dead? Was wave 6 even on display at SDCC? No ALIENS series one 2-packs either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'm perfectly content getting most of my Minimates news right here. Cons are a fun place to see the product for the first time, I suppose, but after giving it some thought, it's pretty cool that we're so spoiled here.

May show off Infinity and 60/19 at the panel, but we'll see. I guess the fact that we've seen control art for many of those takes away a bit of the excitement of seeing the mock-ups here.

hellpop Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 To be fair, there were two licenses that would be new if people here hadn't discovered them from retailer listings in the last few weeks. Now, Mass Effect doesn't do much for us non-gamers, and Grimm's Fairy Tales would have been a massive disappointment, but they would be new nonetheless.

From the official press release: • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Minimates Series 1: The cast of the animated series has been transformed into a series of 2 -inch block figures as part of the wide-ranging Minimates brand. Each figure in the line features interchangeable parts as well as their trademark weapons. Characters include the four Turtles, April O'Neil, Shredder, Foot Soldiers, Foot-Bot, Kraang and Exo-Armor Kraang and are available in blind bags and two-packs. Sold at comic shops, specialty stores, Kmart, Sears and Toys "R" Us. They're anticipating a September release.
