Onyx_6 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Is it too late for a SDCC set? That missing 2-pack? Or a box set with them and ... Thor? Or a 10-pack with Warriors Three, Friga, Sif, Thor (lightning hammer), Loki, Odin, Heimdall, and the throne of Asgard? Please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zylek Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 So the Thor and the character that comes with him will be in both TRU and comic waves and also appear in half the box set? Â What I'm asking is that to get the other two characters in the box set we'll have to get an identical Thor / Other Character? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you buy the box set, don't buy the duplicate two-pack in the other assortment. There may be a different display option for both, but it is not a required double purchase.

DSTZach Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 And it's not a "comic wave" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Are you saying that there will not be an LCS wave, Zach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Box set at comic shops. Two overlapping assortments elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stack32 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 An assortment somewhere besides LCS or TRU? I don't like the sounds of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Disney Store exclusive? Haven't seen one of those in a while. Unless there's a reason for their absence I think that's a plausible option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 We're just happy to have Marvel Movie Minimates in another retail location besides comic shops and TRU, although obviously we hope it does not present an insurmountable obstacle for international collectors. Whenever a change like this happens, it's always done with the long-term health of the line in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloDelorean Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I hope the LCS box set has a strong lineup, as that will likely be the only thing I can easily obtain. I'd say the shared figures are either Gladiator Thor and Gladiator Hulk, or regular Thor and Hela. I'd prefer the latter, as I need a standard Thor for my Avengers display.

Zylek Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Yeah Gladiator Thor and Hulk are likely it as they'd ancor a box set quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Zach, are the 2-packs equally distributed at the retailers not yet revealed, or will there be short-packs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermatt Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Could it possibly be, that minimates are coming back to Target? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd be a dream, but Hot Topic or Disney Store are probably likely given that they already sell DST product.  I also thought Walgreens but I think it would get too mixed with their Animated stuff.

stack32 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I know people like to hate on TRU but it's hard to imagine a different retailer is going to be any easier to deal with, and probably much more difficult. Hopefully the exclusive will be something like this movie's equivalent of Battle-Damaged War Machine and Guard from Civil War. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 My ideal lineup for the box set would be standard Thor, Hela, Loki, and Skurge or Valkyrie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
