minimadman Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) I guess we'll know for certain in a couple of hours when the Diamond final shipping list gets posted. **Update** No Minimates on the shipping list for this week Edited February 22, 2010 by minimadman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Poodoo! I was really hoping for something this week! I guess I can just hope (and probably be let down) that TRU wave 6 shows up this week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vox Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Nothing showed up here either. What are the odds for next week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velvet Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 i have my fingers crossed for next wednesday. the guy at my comic shop said he won't know until monday if they'll be gettin' series 33 and 34 next week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I think wave 34 is not actually coming out till april according to Lukes. I think AA/DST mentioned staggering the releases a little more to give our wallets a tiny bit of relief. If memory serves, the gap between 33 & 34 should be the first actioning of that plan.

Nessex Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 It wouldn't be the first time that the waves were released out of sequence . . . I think the Wolverine Movie wave (26?) was rushed out a couple of weeks before wave 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vox Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I want 4 or 5 Sentinals.. but I have no problem taking Iron Man movie mates first.. just bring on the mates! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I'd be more excited for Sentinels if they weren't Mini Me version. And overall, waves like this are cool because they flesh things out a bit for the Marvel U., but I think overall I prefer themed waves (X-Men, Iron Man, etc). But I still can't wait for these and hope they show up next week so I can finally justify shipping my Pile of Loot through BBTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I'd be more excited for Sentinels if they weren't Mini Me version. I thought it was just me. I'm not at home at the moment ,if I was I'd show & share my 2 latest acquisitions from a certain Minimate Pimp....proper 3" size Goliath & proper 3" size Ultimate Giant-Man....instant incontinence :tongue: Seriously they are bloody awesome !! 2" Sentinels .....scary If we are going to get Diddymates WTF can't we get the proper big bastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 The Marvel license is what it is, though. Would 3 inch versions be better? Sure. But it's this or nothing for the Sentinels right now, and I like them. They are colorful, iconic, and cool. We even have the Max statues of these if scale is a concern.

Mirymate Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 If the world were just and righteous, minimates would have a Transformer sized fan following. And like Transformers, there'd be some enterprising bunch of fans scratch designing and doing limited production runs of "proper" sized Sentinels, Watchers, Pym Particle partakers, etc like the transfans get Ultra Magnus armor, triple changers and combiner upgrades. But then, when you look at what they have to charge for these fan-made toys, production costs must be insane, and you'd need a transfan sized rabid base to consider such a thing. Until then, I can live with mini-Sentinels. And hope one of you geniuses hurries up and figures out how to fan produce statue-mate sized articulated minimates in your kitchens.

velvet Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 well, since i don't plan on getting the iron man movie 'mates (i just like the comicbook versions of 'mates... i never get the movie tie-in ones) it really would be a nice break on my poor wallet if series 33 and 34 didn't hit until april--- but i still want 'em NOW. sheesh, these things truly are addictive....

Seriously, I've had a plan in place for to-scale sized giant mates for a couple years now. the only thing I've been waiting for was a new house that would give me the space needed to work on them. Now that I've moved and have the space... Edited February 27, 2010 by groundhog7s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fwoosheyman Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 AA/DST needs to put up a new blog post on release dates. Series 33 and now the Iron Man 2 minimates will miss their release date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Series 33 and now the Iron Man 2 minimates will miss their release date. ...which is totally par for the course for DST. I've pretty much just started adding a month to the last published release date for any given wave of Minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
