Netglow Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I wish you had posted something first MM, I literally have both on my desk at work because I was contemplating the same thing! I was going to upgrade Abomination with either of the hulks. Didn't fit the color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I don't think Abomination matches with anything. Found Banner/ War Machine today (Moline, IL). Banner is cool and the extra head is a great addition, just need to figure out what parts would work for a somewhat movie accurate hulking out look. War Machine isn't very exciting if you have the IM3 version but the likeness on the head is much improved and it's a fitting expression for the character. If you have matching hands putting them and the head on Shingen's gray suit gets you close to a movie accurate celebration Rhodey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPC Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Is the Banner hairpiece new? It's so very curly. One of the TRUs near me had all three sets, but only one Hulkbuster. Still not sure I need that, but it does look cool. I picked up an extra Banner/WM set hoping someone would be interested in trading for a regular AOU Vision and Wave 62 Apocalypse? Just looking for those two figures out of these two lines. PM me! Also, I wanted to give DST props on Klaue. That likeness is EXACTLY Andy Serkis. The hairpiece isn't right, but it works well enough, but that face is perfect. Just wish that character had more importance, and surprised he made it to TRU and not Vision.

stack32 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 The hairpiece has been around for a while, most recently on Ripley. The exact color is unique though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Pablumo Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Is anyone interested in trading/selling the Ultron from the SDCC 5 pack? Thanks. Edited August 29, 2015 by Pedro Pablumo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Got my TRU packs! Hulk buster is a thing of beauty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribble_WC Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Found Banner/WM in Memphis. No animated mates at that particular store. Looks like I'll be making a drive in the near future. Thanks for the update! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjl80 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hmmmm, do I risk waiting and checking my nearby TRU tonight? I'm in the western IL burbs, which unfortunately has some of the minimate resellers nearby. So risky if I can find one. Considering ordering the Banner/War Machine set from TRU.com (BACK IN STOCK RIGHT NOW!!!!) but they charge an ugly $5.99 shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Of course it comes back in stock today. I just bought a set on ebay for $17 shipped over the weekend. But I'm okay with that price since it would be about $14 from TRU.com so a little extra for the seller's time. But yeah that's kinda the story of my life lately. Oh well. Good luck to those that are taking advantage now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I finally found the AoU TRU 2 sets. I got only the Banner/War Machine packs. I got three of the four I saw on the peg. I passed on the other sets because I got one custom case form Luke and had those included in that assortment. Now I have all the AoU (Avengers 2) Minimates released by DST. I may get another Hulkbuster Armor Iron Man set down the road if he is still at TRU next trip but not necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysterious Stranger Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Got my Banner/War Machine set today. War Machine is, as we've seen, almost identical to the IM3 version. The AoU version is more of a darker black color while the IM3 version is more of a dark gun metal. And the AoU version (at least mine anyway) is missing the Air Force emblem on the left arm. With those 2 very minor differences this version of War Machine is underwhelming. Banner though is a great figure. The transforming face is great but it makes me wish we'd have gotten some extra parts to go with it. A ripped shirt torso and non labcoat arms would have been perfect. But its just nice to get an official Banner figure to go with the rest of the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shogi Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) I just haven't had luck with knees lately. My Spidey 2099 figure had a lot of excess paint sticking one knee closed and I just opened the AOU Banner pack to find he's got two left legs! What's really interesting is that all of the copyright info is still all printed on the back of the figures (even though that's technically the front of the duplicate left leg) Already contacted DST but I don't expect a reply until Tuesday or so due to the holiday Edited September 6, 2015 by Shogi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
