Lobsterman Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) It's been a solid two months since we heard about a new wave. DST kind of spoiled us with a veritable firehose of new pics and information back in the spring/early summer. Think they're sitting on something new, or are they cooling their jets for a while?

Mirymate Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hard to say. It seems there's usually some kind of "surprise" announced around the holidays. But I get the impression that with some of the shakey shipping schedules and weird distribution of the LCS waves, coupled with the just plain odd TRU handling of all things mate, that Chuck, Matt and the gang are sitting back for a sec and trying o see how the next few steps shake out before announcing anything new. I'm sure they're throwing character cards in a hat (or however they put these waves together. come on, look at 29s line up and give me a better explanation) to work out 33 and 34 already though.

gambitron Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I hope they announce more new stuff of course, but my wallet is ok with a little longer before the next announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cesium salami Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) We really have gotten spoiled. We know what's coming a good 6 months from now, and we're wanting more. I actually would like to hear something more about Battle Beasts, though. We've got one figure included in a playset as a bit of a sneak peek, but nothing else since. EDIT: just to clarify, I wasn't being negative. I'm ready for some more news also (wanted: new box set).

murderofcrows Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Im ready...bring on the news!!! Not to thread jack, but do you think when marvel minimates hit their end, DST will do a STFU wave? just a huge group of obscure figures hardcore fans have been clamoring on for...as a last hurrah or do you think it will be just no news after the last wave hits? moc847 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBT! Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 You sure that you weren't told, "Spoon," TBT!? Nope def not! I've shared a hug with DST Chuck before but turned down every advance they've made regarding spooning! T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velvet Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 the molecule man minimate i saw a pic of here (at least i think it was here)... is that one going to be included in a future TRU 2-pack, gang? and has there been any release date mentioned for that cool warpath/angel 2-pack yet? i KNOW i saw the prototype pics of THAT 2-pack here. oh, yeah: i finally scored a bullseye/moonstone 2-pack at the TRU in lexington, KY today! woo-hoo! i was THIS close to just breaking down and getting bum-raped on ebay for it, too...

Captain Minimate Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I'm sure they're throwing character cards in a hat (or however they put these waves together. come on, look at 29s line up and give me a better explanation) to work out 33 and 34 already though. That wave seems to me like some kind of anti-hero wave... Black Panther, Wolvie, Moon Knight... Bob () ... But I guess we'll never know, 'cause that would kinda spoil it more. I think DST is gonna take a break. Just wait guys, as long as the minimates come, we'll be fine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I move we revive the Minimate Withdrawal thread before this turns into another Wave 33/34 wish list Yeah, I agree we've gotten spoiled rotten with all the Minimate news we've heard since before SDCC. Of course all that is well and good until you realize how long it'll take to run them through the whole production process before we can hold them in our grubby little paws To quote a great boardie's ubiquitous signature: "The waiting is the hardest part." Am I the only one here becoming increasingly paranoid over how Disney will affect the future of Marvel Minimates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 OK follks, I've MOVED all the off topic DISNEY/MARVEL talk to the appropriate thread, the next person to take this thread off topic is going to get a bollocking! T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franklin and Valeria? Damn, I can't believe how soon we're getting these. Stop spoiling us DST!* EDIT: Spoiler, spoiler, spoiler!!! EDIT2: So Lobsterman takes his spoiler tags out while I put mine in? We're gonna be at this all day. EDIT3: If Lobby changes his spoiler tags one more time, I'm gonna lose it. *I don't really mean that Edited September 18, 2009 by NorthRaider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
