Xybot Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Hi gang! Been a while ... hope you all had a super Valentine's. Just got some GREAT news. Both wave 19 and 20 Marvel MiniMates are scheduled to ship to us next Wednesday, February 20th. How awesome is that?!?! Can't wait to get Ultron and Vision. Aww, who am I kidding? 90% of this wave are incredible. Have a good one! Xy (For those who don't know, we are located on the US East Coast. If that means anything to you ...)

Rad Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 (For those who don't know, we are located on the US East Coast. If that means anything to you ...) Which would normally mean those lucky sods on the West coast USA would have already had theirs but I haven't seen any reports. Maybe the bubble's burst and they'll get them at the same time as the rest of us schlubs! Cheers for posting this Xy, I was well happy this morning when I saw my e-mail from Stuckakid.

benbacca37 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Crap in a hat. This is killing my debit card. I still haven't gotten all of DC wave 7. Now both Marvel wave 19 & 20? Jeez well hopefully I can pick up some variants or something and get the rest later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckerus Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I'm on the West Coast, and both of the local comic shops I frequent had no new Marvel Minimates. Just the DC minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minijeff Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Someone ask him for pics! lol I dont have an account there. And whats archangels death mask? I am guessing that it means this mask as an alternate head for him: http://www.incognitocomics.co.uk/_pics/FS_2760001.jpg if true this makes a very cool extra to the figure!

ARE-JAY Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Thanks for answering my question! Now I'm even more anxious to see this wave up close. It'll be cool to see how that mask translates to minimate form! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 There are pics up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkerbean Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 wow :o they look good, i hope apocalypse's arm cable things a bendable, the deaths head mask is perfect on angel hawkeys looks good, the big chest thing looks a little to bulky vision, well i hate the phasing thing and its not like there is any way to fix it other then a new paint job...

MiniFiend UK Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Not liking the hole in the back of ultrons head or the transparent arms/legs on vision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackwater_park Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Not liking the hole in the back of ultrons head or the transparent arms/legs on vision I'm hoping the parts from the extra Loki can be put to good use on the Vision, then it will just be his cape which is phasing, which is kind of cool! Really like Mysterio though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypno Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I'm loving the transparent parts, I think the hole in the back of Ultron's head is to let light pass through so that his eyes and mouth are brighter. The only nits I have to pick are that Ultron seems a bit small and that we're getting a rerelease of Hydroman set Spidey in this series. These though are awesome!

insanespidey Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 that we're getting a rerelease of Hydroman set Spidey in this series. They aren't the same: Boxset Spidey = "Torment" McFarlane design Wave 19 Spidey = Amazing Fantasy Spidey They do look a little similar, but compare the details, color, and eyes and you'll see they are totally different. But AF Spiderman would probably be more recognizable if he had the Web wings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I dig the transparent appendages on Vision, as well. To me, it makes a heck of a lot more sense than a transparent Kitty Pride (who didn't turn the least bit transparent in the comics I remember, she could just walk through things). If the vision has light up eyes, that would be a cool bonus, too. I'm also digging the early 60s Spiderman. Though I know a lot of people are tired of Batman Minimates, this makes me realize that I would love to see how DST would handle an original Bob Kane-type Batman Minimate.

TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 God, no more Spider-Mans, please!! Loving the lightpiping on Ultron! The Phasing Vision should be the variant, not that crappy "2.0"... Man, is this Wednesday gonna be nice for me, DC and Marvel!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 The Phasing Vision should be the variant, not that crappy "2.0"... Surely if you don't like the 2.0 version then its good thats its a variant. That makes the other easier to find, and you don't HAVE to buy it.
