buttheadsmate Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Cool, thanks for sharing. What's with the holes in the heads? Are they for Krusty Krab hats? When I read that earlier I had no idea that you were being serious & was about to enter into another 'why do Minimates have holes in their heads' rant . Now that I have done my research on all things Spongebob ................ ......................I want me some Krusty Krab hats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetton517 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I haven't watched a lot of Spongebob in quite a while, so I'm not sure if it's related to a particular episode. Why a giant head for Plankton and nothing else? I know with proper scale, doing Plankton wouldn't really work. So the answer is just to make a normal sized Plankton head? Too bad Rocket don't get the same treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I think if we just made Rocket as a head, people would have been upset. Hats are a possibility down the road, not sure if everyone saw the Glove World versions at Toy Fair. Luckily, Spongebob is a sponge, which makes the hole appropriate.

Lobsterman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I think if we just made Rocket as a head did anything at all in relation to any license, ever, people would have been upset. Fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 My YouTube vid Excellent! The TRU.com site's inventory still remains ominously empty .......... so please if anyone feels that their local TRU is being clogged by this set then I would appreciate a PM to engage in conversation as regards to relieving them of ...er..some .

youbastards Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 as far as I know they haven't hit stores yet. Maybe it was just a sample case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Nope, they're in stores. Found the 4-packs yesterday in the same aisle with the SpongeBob toys. BHM, I'd be happy to grab some sets for you. Send me a message if you're interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lastweaponmaster Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hi. Just wondering if anyone else in Canada has had this experience. Had order the Spongebob minimates series 1 through my local comicshop and they were scheduled to come in mid-April. However I then found out that Diamond had cancelled the order saying that they were unavailable to be shipped in Canada (rights issues?). Can anyone confirm this? If so, I guess I have to find them through other means. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) My shop did not get them either (I'm located in Ottawa BTW). They did not know why, but said they would look into it. Rights issues eh? Hmmmmm.... This is the Tomb Raider minimate fiasco all over again. Edited April 19, 2015 by MINI_MYTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Found the box set at my TRU today, and got the set with Sandy from Luke yesterday. So that's all the main cast, yay. Overall I really like these guys, with Mr Krabbs and Sandy being my favorites, I think. The only one that I don't think translated all that well is Squidward. And Plankton's too big, but the fact that he's a Minimate head, meaning I can put him on, say, an extra Spider-Man body is pretty keen. Overall a bright, fun colorful set.

TENIME_art Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Okay, so is the TRU set 100% unique from the LCS 2-packs? Any shared figures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 All 4 shared figures are identical between TRU and LCS, Plankton is exclusive to the TRU set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Do both versions of Mr Krabs have the little mustache design on his face? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Lol, that's awesome! Do both versions of Mr Krabs have the little mustache design on his face? I believe so, but would have to find my dupe to compare. Did you get or see one that didn't? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I haven't gotten either one yet. I really just wanted to know if I could skip the two pack with him and be okay with the TRU set, or if it's a variant decoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
