Trekker 42 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 (edited) The new blog post has the Hulk movie minimates as being released today and Diamond's store no longer says they're a preorder. Can our West Coast brothers confirm this? Edited September 29, 2008 by Trekker 42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkerbean Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 i have a hunch they'll be showing up next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm 1:08 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Nope. I did not see them over here in San Diego. My store always orders them for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllStarMatt Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 (edited) Sorry guys! They were supposed to be in stores today according to our estimated dates, however it looks like next week will be the new ship date. The Hulk Minimates are here, just couldn't get shipped out to comic book stores in time to go on sale today. Rest assured, they're coming VERY soon!

rx78jj Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Iron Man being pushed back aint half bad. Gives me time to save money. The Hulk wave seems to feel a little lack luster IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fo Shizzle Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) Yeah I hear that, after looking at the photos some more I think I am just going to go with Blonsky and the variant Gen. Ross 2- packs. Edited September 25, 2008 by Fo Shizzle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murderofcrows Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 that is 2 more packs than me. this wave is a pass for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Was visitng my local CBS and my buddy who works there showed me the shipping list for Wednesday Oct 1st, 2008 and sure enough, "Marvel Minimates Hulk wave 22" was on it. Booyah! More MMs for my mini empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Somebody apparently already has them?!? http://cgi.ebay.com/MARVEL-MINIMATES-SERIE...id=p3286.c0.m14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fo Shizzle Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Somebody apparently already has them?!? http://cgi.ebay.com/MARVEL-MINIMATES-SERIE...id=p3286.c0.m14 Given that it is the weekend it looks like they are trying to make it look that way. In the description it says "item will ship within three days of receiving payment. Making it on or around Wendesday. But according to what I have noticed going on around my comic shop, they close aroung 11 or 12 on Tuesdays. That means there is a strong possibility they do get them earlier that day and re arrange everything that evening to put new comics and toys out. My theory at least....

Alpheon Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) My comic shop gets their stuff Wednesday, then catalogs it and releases it Thursday. ...but what's a little extra wait? Because I'm a loyal customer, , my middleman Phillip will hold anything I want, special order anything he can, and hold whatever I want for as long as I want. But how can you guys pass up an entire wave? I mean, yes, they are lackluster--but my "problem" (not something I'm particularly proud of) is the simple fact that if I see Minimates I don't have, I simply MUST buy them. I have that little self-control. There's probably councilling for that... I even bought the Abomination/Smart Hulk 2-pack, without even thinking about the plastic monsters that were inside. I quickly realized I had just brought into my home the most awful Minimates ever made (to my knowledge).

Trekker 42 Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 I even bought the Abomination/Smart Hulk 2-pack, without even thinking about the plastic monsters that were inside. I quickly realized I had just brought into my home the most awful Minimates ever made (to my knowledge). Hey... I like Abomination! That's harsh. Sure, he's a little huge, but so what? He's fun to play with. But yeah, Smart Hulk sucks. In facct, I only use Smart Hulk to make a story where the Leader is created. Once the Leader creates himself, he looks for the Hulk to attempt to get some blood and use it to make himself stronger. It works and we get the Smart Hulk, who is then killed by Abomination (who is not an enemy but a friend to Hulk. He's like Rick Jones. And he's SHIELD"s second-in-command directly under Nick Fury until the accident.) End of Story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, I meant keep...you know, if they have Minimates for me, they'll hold on to the Minimates until I come pick them up. Eww.

lastmaximal Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 doesn't seem to be listed for next week, oddly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 The Previews website shipping list isn't updated till Monday after 5:00 PM EST. Comic book shops on the other hand are e-mailed a shipping list for the upcoming Wednesday on the previous Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 For what its worth, Stuckakid said I could expect my order in this week, so they do seem to be arriving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 I pre-ordered mine with the Avengers Box Set, so I have a bit longer to wait. Its just one of the many ways I drive myself crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastmaximal Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 hopefully an update does add them to the final list in time for ordering; my LCSs don't seem to be listing them either... meh, if all else fails i'll just get this and the iron man movie wave at the same time.
