spidermatt Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Has the Beetlejuice minimates shown up yet? Did they come out today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Hill Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I saw some of the box sets appearing on eBay, I think the official release day is tomorrow though (10/18), so a lot more might be showing up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roccothegreat Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Saw on Instagram these hit toys r us, what cool looking sets. I need to track them down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 These are out! I'm glad I didn't have to buy that 4-pack just to get the 1 Beetle Juice I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuisporQuake Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Donny B, check Jansen Beach TRU, they have Marvel 24 AND the Beetlejuice. ( Beetlejuice is on the end cap of the aisle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattallica Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) I found the TRU sets today in Seattle, are the mates in them identical to the 4 pack ones? they sure look it, so you can buy the 4 pack for $23 or two 2 packs for $15 and get the same 4 mates?

I have yet to purchase the TRU packs, only the boxset. While the Maitlands clearly have their stretch-faced heads, I can't tell if the striped Beetlejuice has his carnival gear.

JRSly Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 It is kinda ridiculous when there seems to be a boxset "convenience fee" with some lines. It's never really made sense why they're $20-25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 The same thing happened for Dark Tower and Watchmen, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkguerilla Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I found these in the suburbs of LA yesterday. They are amazing and I love them. If DST is going to pull mates from movies, this is the kind of movie I want them to pull from; one with great visuals, lots of colors, and memorable looks. Less Dark Tower blandness and more Beetlejuice wackiness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a Shrunken Head Guy and a Miss Argentina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, one small nitpick. Betelgeuse was clearly wearing boots with his pants tucked in when in his striped suit. A little black paint and it is an easy fix.

Mattallica Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 his hands like most? minimates have 3 fingers and a thumb yet the "hand shape" made in his scary head (that he made by sticking his hand up in it) has 4 fingers and a thumb like a normal human Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked up the TRU sets today. Aside from Tuxedo BJ and Otho, the rest look pretty much the same as the boxset. Interestingly, at one of the local TRUs, apparently someone stole all the BJ minimates the day they were stocked. Also the Mulder/Scully 2-pack from the new series was on sale for $0.03! The checker rang it twice because he thought it was an error! It took me about 20 minutes after I got home before I customized a red wedding dress Lydia to go with Tuxedo BJ, it will work as a spot filler until DST releases an official one: Edited November 8, 2017 by Joe Hill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Great. I already paid for the box set at BBTS, and it's past the time when I could return it for store credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire series has an excellent likeness to the actors/characters, I was pleasantly surprised. Wedding Lydia is series 16 Scarlet Witch torso, Alice in Wonderland Red Queen dress, and the frilly top and veil was made with red translucent sculpy (it looks more see-through in person).

Onyx_6 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I was thinking those were the parts used, but I couldn’t place the sculpy parts. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I found these at Tru today and was trying to pick up the Otho set and they were all gone. Then I see one and the card was ripped off the plastic. Just the blister and the mates, the card and other Otho sets nowhere to be found. Just so I'm sure, are there supposed to be any accessories in the Otho set? It doesn't look like it in mine but can't tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
