Prowlar Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Bloody hell! I checked less than an hour earlier and I completely missed them. Who or whatever is in charge of stocking TRU.com needs wake up and realize that not everyone can make it to their physical locations. I actually made the trip last week, TRU wasn't the reason I had to make the trip but I made sure that I went there anyway, and it cost me a little over $160 in gas and four hours of travel time. I realize that TRU sales support the line but with very few exceptions I've never had a problem finding the LCS waves without having to pay overly inflated prices. Yeah, I know that in a couple days the wave is likely to be back in stock but even then it is likely I'll never be able to get the exclusive packs. Just for once I'd like to see that little silver exclusive sticker and "exclusive" text slapped on the packs that come in greater numbers when the entire wave is limited. It's things like this that have made me abandon toy lines in the past. Sigh, now that I've vented I should be good for a while. However, just to be sure, I think I'd better add an extra fifteen minutes to my daily meditation for a couple of weeks or until I'm able to get a new batch of minimates to work with.

youbastards Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Finally got my hands on the LCS wave, and I LOVE them! I didn't have any major QC issues, and both Merk and the spider are standing fine for me. My 2 1/2 year old is currently playing with the scorpion and spider, and she just told the spider "I love you, spider" and gave it a kiss. I have to say, my expectstions were low, but I am very impressed and REALLY want to see more from this line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Collector Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 My 2 1/2 year old is currently playing with the scorpion and spider, and she just told the spider "I love you, spider" and gave it a kiss. Adorable! Glad you haven't got any major QC issues, I'm still on the fence with these, so more posts like yours may just push me off it.

luke314pi Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I can send you an extra if you want. Outside of the humans, he is our least popular loose character for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I've yet to see Battle Beasts in northeast Pennsylvania either. I just read the first issue (thanks, Luke!) and am now kinda drawn to them a tiny bit. I may pick up some if the design is appealing... assuming I ever see them in the wild.

Captain Paco Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 So went to my local TRU and got there about ten minutes after they opened. I was very upset that they have yet to get any Battle Beast minimates. I was told last week that they said they would be in this week. They didn't even have any new Marvel or Walking Dead mates either. All they have is the same stock they have had for almost a month now. They need to clearence out the stock they have as Halo, SFvT, MvC and the spidey movie mates are starting to collect dust there. I so want to get the Moose & Bat set and then I will be happy until the Star Trek mates make their return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 For anyone who does have the Moose & Bat set, can anybody post some pictures of the Bat with his bulky chest-piece removed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountDestro Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Found at TRU in Bakersfield CA with wave 15. It was perfect timing, they were stocking all the action figure sections up so it was buffet of all new stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogi Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) For all I know, it may not come off! Thanks for trying! The bat Chest Piece comes off, it's friggin hard, but it'll come off. I haven't gotten the moose chest off yet. if no one takes a pic before I get home tonight I'll post up a chestless Bat pic Apparently my phone was able to take a good pic (I didn't think it'd work so well) Here's the Moose and Bat chests: You have to heat up the chests to get them off since the head ball joint plugs into the chest itself Edited February 16, 2013 by Shogi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Nothing yet at my TRU. I was told the truck will be Tuesday and that they should be able to tell me late Monday if they'll be in or not.... You have to heat up the chests to get them off since the head ball joint plugs into the chest itself Tampo'd. Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
