DaveOMac Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Really like the new juggs. Here's the copy from PREVIEWS. A Diamond Select Release! Art Asylum design and sculpt! Fans have long been clamoring for the designers at Art Asylum to tackle the classic Excalibur team, one of the most popular eclectic assemblies of heroes ever. Featuring new takes on classic characters, this Minimates box set features: Captain Britain, Nightcrawler, Juggernaut and an exclusive Megan figure. Packaged in partial window box packaging (the same as past Marvel box sets) and limited to the specialty market, this 4 pack is sure to be a hit with fans and collectors alike. Look for them in shops by January 2011 with a SRP of $17.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Meggan Kurt and (I'm the) Juggernaut (,Bitch) are all superb, but that Cap B could have been a lot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 these are everything that makes minimates great... bright, bold... not too simple or over detailed. Love 'em, can't wait to get this set. If I had too nitpick at anything, Juggernaut does look a little like he's wearing Tudor trunk hosen (or pumpkin pants). Fantastic set... 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Looking good! I like how they tackled Juggy's eyes. Everyones gotta have a gripe so Ill go with Kurts hair. Too bushy and it looks like his ears are too far forward. I'm still VERY happy to welcome one of my favorite X-Men to my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 The pics look great & it would seem that it could be a nice set . It would be really nice to think that Captain Britain will get some ears this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Finally, a good shot of Meggan. She looks absolutely wonderful! Juggernaut just looks happy to be there. Funny expression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 And I wasn't even going to mention how nice their teeth looked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Nice boxset. Liking the Juggernaut lots and nice to see a new Nightcrawler for those that haven't got him. I agree they do look a jovial bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Funny thing is, I think Juggernaut's gritting his teeth. It just looks like a big toothy smile in the mask. This set is awesome, and the reason I ordered my Excalibur Kitty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I'm wondering why the TRU Thing didn't get boots like that. The squared off edges realy make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binaryan Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I'm wondering why the TRU Thing didn't get boots like that. The squared off edges realy make a difference. Wow! Meggan is the unexpected standout here. She looks really amazing! Loving the updated Nightcrawler and Juggernaut as well. Captain Britain is the one that just seems off. The smile doesn't really suit him and the design on his helmet looks a bit too rounded. They were always drawn as diamond shapes, IIRC.

undeadpool Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 these look outstanding. i cant wait everyone in this set is a must have for me, even captain britain. nightcrawler and juggernaught are on my top 10 list of "redoes" ive been waiting for. i never read the excalibur series but id love to add the team to my collection, since i already have kitty. i really cant wait for this set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos_ Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Yeah, cant wait for these !! I agree Cap. Britain is the weakest of the set, but we cannoy win in everything ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Based on this pic, I'd say Juggernaut is the weakest. He looked cool in pics from NYCC, but here something looks off. He looks like a marshmallow, and not the awesome evil kind. The breakfast cereal kind. I actually think Captain Britain looks pretty good, and I love Nightcrawler's hair. As long as Juggs looks like what we saw at NYCC, this set is perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 They look better than in-person!! How did that happen?!?! They looked amazing at NYCC, but wow. I wasn't even this in-awe when i saw them in the case; Meggan looked amazing, not nearly half as good as this. I guess that's all for lighting and whatnot?? They look incredible, and Meggan is by far the standout; if anything, i'm buying it just for her. While i'm all for the "more sculpting" side to Minimates, it is absolutely incredible how great a basic Minimate can be done with the right colors and parts. I hope nothing gets lost in translation. These are amazing, and might be my vote for Boxset of the Year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Magneto ,A o A,promo looked amazing at SDCC . The first Cap Brian (31) looked amazing as a proto & still does on the packaging but looks 'earless & unfinished' in the flesh. These look great in the picture. Who knows what we'll get ? What will be missing ? When will my patience snap ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainChunk Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Still quite excited to get Juggernaut and Nightcrawler, even with the photo discrepancies. My daughter will love Meggan, and Capn Britain looks decent enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Meggan looks AWESOME! She could only be better if she were given a reversible feral face and a spare set of clawed hands. But even if she doesn't - i'm so fraking stoked with her. what a great hair sculpt! I can't believe i got to cross THREE X-Women off my most wanted list this year! Colour me stoked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
