stack32 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I like the look of these quite a bit. The Spartans may need a little bit of a wash to bring out the details in the armor though. I'm sure I'll end up with enough 'mates of the Master Chief to give it a try. To those of you who dislike them: How would you like to see them put together? Honest question, I just don't see how they could be done much differently and still look enough like the characters to be worthwhile.

ironfist1234 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 a worker at TRU said that he was into halo and that they should be coming next week at my TRU so try and ask around see what people say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onnebot Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I'm starting to worry that Halo minimates' head might be without basic head. They might be just helmet without a blank head within it.Especially for the Spartans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fwoosheyman Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 When Art Asylum shows the packaged pics on their website it usually takes 5-6 weeks to show up in stores. They showed the TRU 2 packs, boxset and Warthog all in late Oct so that puts for a early/mid Dec release. Currently Amazon lists the Halo boxset for a Dec 1st release and the Warthog for Dec 8th.

GOD I HATE TRU!!! You hate them...for taking a month to get in the wave...even though they actually have this one up for pre-order unlike most minimates...and the fact that they misspelled one letter of Master Chief. Well...to each his own i guess. The fact that i can guarantee getting them, get them before Christmas, and not have to search stores for them puts me at ease. Especially since i wanted a team of all Active Camo. i LOVE Active Camo. Besides, you'll have the Warthogs and Boxset to (hopefully) hold you over for two weeks.

Twisted Two-Face Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 (edited) "Jersey Jerk." I like it. Anyway... I wasn't able to pre-order yet, and may not with Mattel's two upcoming sales this month which i completely forgot about, but i may just make the "Christmas present" excuse. Or just leave them in my cart for a few days and see if i can actually buy King Greyskull and Grizzlor before they sell out; in other words, there's a highly-probable chance that i'm pre-ordering these. EDIT: Much thanks to BrobotC for saying what i wanted to; i wasn't in the mood to start a fight. Thanks, Bro.

fwoosheyman Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 TRU.com strikes again. Just got the dreaded cancel email for my Warthog order. Funny how it goes from being listed "In stock" to they never had it at all within a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
