thereasonsy Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Well after trying the water Trick my Rogue left knee gave out. Whomp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OvenproofBug6 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Just picked up the Rogue and Cyclops pack from my mailbox today. After I got them out of the package; I have to say this is one of my favorite two packs in recent releases. I'm an X-Men fan and these costumes definitely cater to my interests as I was pretty invested in Bendis' Uncanny X-Men run, sue me. Anyway, thoughts: I like that they didn't give Cyclops a slip cover, I think the base head looks really good and so does the rest of his costume. He complements Marvel Now Magneto quite nicely. As for Rogue, I like this costume because as above it can be used as classic or modern, and I feel it was executed well. I do wish that the paint applications for the hood weren't as sloppy (as I believe was previously mentioned in the thread). She also pairs nicely with Marvel Now Scarlet Witch and any modern Wolverine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kotter Comics Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 If anyone is looking to sell their Rogue, I'd be interested. I could quite justify the cost and shipping for just the one figure. And, unfortunately, the rest of this wave didn't speak to me enough to order all three and distribute shipping costs across more figures.

Gillbob316 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) @Zach My Madame Masque has 2 right legs. Considering the weird circumstances for this series, figured I'd ask: Can Diamond supply replacement parts for this wave, or do I need to take this one up with Walgreens? Thanks in advance! EDIT: I see on the previous page I wasn't the only one with issues, sooooo... nvm! Customer service it is... EDIT 2: Sent! Pics attached. Mentioned the forums. I also took the opportunity to bring up the fact my Ebony Maw ordered from Luke has 2 left arms. Because he does.

DSTZach Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 You should never have to return a set to Walgreens. We should usually be able to help. I've already responded to your e-mail, I just may need to wait for the CS rep to come back from vacation and check the parts bins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) I just got my order from Walgreens. I placed my order yesterday at like 11 AM and I got them today before 1 PM, so that was fast. I ordered two of the Cyclops/Rogue packs and two of the Spot/Iron Spider packs, but only one of the Hologram Tony/Madame Masque packs. I am happy with everything except how they were packaged in the shipping box. One of the Cyclops/Rogue packs was bent back. It was okay as I was planning to open one of the two, so that is the one I opened. I am liking them and may try to order more if I can come up with the funds to pay for them.

Has anyone else been specially selected to take their survey about their experience with Walgreens.com? I did and gave them high marks. On top of that I recommended they offer free shipping to stores. Check your email for the survey. The more feedback, the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was eager to give positive input on what they did with this wave, and to encourage improvement on Minimate availability. and I absolutely second the suggestion for everyone to fill out the survey if they get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENIME_art Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Left knee was fine. Right knee snapped while I was delicately testing the joints as I do with all action figures straight out of the package. Boiled the pieces, removed the pieces of snapped peg, and replaced it with a peg from a Payback Wolverine, as I'd had so many extras from army-building Sentinels.

Both of my Rogues have bum left knee joints for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Freezer trick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowlar Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 The problem is that the green paint from the upper leg got into the joint and dried locking it place. It took me a bit of very careful work with and exact-knife to free up the joint enough to get it to "break free" without breaking the peg.

Donny B Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I can confirm Prowlar’s statement. Mine had a glob of paint holding the joint together, and I freed it up with some careful cutting. Good as new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) My Rogue had stiff knee joints, but after carefully bending them, they work fine. Gave it to a friend already otherwise I would offer her up here. Edited November 28, 2018 by Turtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I am beyond delicate with my action figures, especially when testing joints, so when something snaps, there was literally no other outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I cringe every time I see a video review of someone manhandling an action figure right out of the package like it's some sex doll that likes it rough. How about some foreplay, buddy?

MisterPL Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 This assortment is 30% off for Cyber Monday Week. If you haven't ordered it or want more, get it before the sales ends this Saturday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I just want to find Animated Wave 9. I don't like that I've skipped over it & lucked out with the releases that came after. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Who made the quick custom of A Brotherhood Rogue with this figure? I remember seeing it someplace but can’t find it for the life of me now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
