Jay Tigran Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 RGB MMs 1st Look!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Looking very good. Bright and colourful like Minimates should be. Lots of interesting ghosts too. These are gonna fly off the shelves, as long as Ghostbusters fatigue hasn't set in, but with the new ghosts, I think the line will be OK.

pawcanada Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 All of them are everything I was expecting AND more. And glad to see the GB emblem has finally been made as a minimate. I can hear my wallet crying on the desk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny B Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Very beautiful mates, all around! Though I can already hear the cries of fans who don't recognize many of those ghosts as "minimates" ... and I see there is no apparent size restriction with these. Boogieman's head by itself is the almost the size of a standard minimate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boogieman's head by itself is the almost the size of a standard minimate I'm loving these but yes I'd say that they are unrecognisable as 'Minimates' but I came to accept that as soon as I saw Slimer Many of the innovations with GB & RGB are totally brilliant which makes the fact ridiculous that we have pathetic attempts to remain within the stupid size limitations of the Marvel licence.

So true. And while I have been an avid Minimate Purist for the longest time, I do believe that certain characters need parts that take them beyond the basic MM body... But that aside, I think it could be said that even Slimer still maintains the Minimate likeness because of the arms. Sam Hain, on the other hand, has nothing "Minimate" about him (visibly, anyway). Had I seen it standing alone, with no knowledge that it was part of the RGB line, I may not have guessed it was a Minimate. That being said, I think Killerwatt is my favorite of all the characters in this line, and he's barely recognizable as a Minimate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slythe Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 The Boogeyman is insanely awesome! It looks like he has backwards jointed legs, so I'm guessing that his giant head/coattails will act as a balancing weight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like he has backwards jointed legs, so I'm guessing that his giant head/coattails will act as a balancing weight? IIRC, his legs work roughly the same way as the Halo Elites... and yes, I would imagine they'd need something elaborate to counter-balance the weight of his giant noggin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacksun1520 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 This sucks... I didn't want to like these, but I do, now I need to figure out how to pay for them and where to put them all Slimer with the proton pack is too awesome for words, his expression is priceless BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawcanada Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Is it me or does it look like Slimer with the Proton Pack will be part of the boxset and regular Slimar part of the TRU wave? I thought it was going to be the other way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was going to be the other way around. They said it would be the other way around. They could have either changed their minds or just put them in the wrong place in the display.

pawcanada Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I'm hoping they changed their minds as I do feel like they've saved all the awesome minimates for the TRU wave and are putting the extras in the boxset, which is frustrating as the boxset is the easiest thing for me to get (at least at a decent price).

minimadman Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I am kind of done with the Ghostbusters line. I don't care the look of the animated ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwoosheyman Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 RGB Wave 1 is up for preorder at TRU.com They won't ship until the end of June but it's easier and potentially cheaper than driving around searching for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Sadly, they are now enforcing a 'one per order rule' on these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
