ImABarRoomHero Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Just got my case pre-ordered even though I'm not interested in any of the Capcom figures....guess they will make good trade fodder.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawcanada Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I don't see us getting a throne, but would say there are better than even chances of getting alternate colored figures (either red, or white, or whatever Phoenix) because everything else stays the same, making it an extremely cheap option for DST to release extra figures. Didn't DST imply they'll be able to do more than just the main roster, i.e. characters added via DLC, maybe alternative costumes (such as Ca's Super Soldier and Ryu's SF1 look, fingers crossed?) and maybe the alt colours? Having said that, I think I remember them getting a bit confused when someone asked them about the alt colours... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I read somewhere that the license allowed for the full MvC franchise, which would suggest that alt looks and costumes would certainly be included in their license agreement. . .

pawcanada Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 That's what I thought I read as well (too bad it won't cover the earlier games though ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 That's what I thought I read as well (too bad it won't cover the earlier games though ). I'm almost certain that it does cover all the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as Spiral goes, it better come in a Mojo pack or I don't want it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 They did say anyone appearing in the game was fairplay, which suggests alternate appearances and cameos, such as the characters showing up in the endings. That being said, I imagine they play this one conservatively. Street Fighter II died partly due to variant fatigue, with no fewer than 3 Ryus available during the first run of the series.

TENIME_art Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Marrow, Blackheart, Silver Samurai, Spiral & Onslaught GODS, YES, PLEASE. I'd be less excited for Onslaught than the rest, but I'd still welcome one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Just got the case breakdown from Diamond: Dormamu/Trish x2 Phoenix/Morrigan x3 Deadpool/Dante x4 Iron Man/Arthur x3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I guess since they're offering God Cases now, Diamond doesn't feel the need to pack things evenly anymore. Which is fine, I guess. But wow, those case packouts make me afraid that retailers are going to get stuck with a bunch of Iron Mans and Deadpools hanging on their pegs.

karamazov80 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Possible. As I may well be stealing all the Arthurs out of those packages and leaving IM by his lonesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobsterman Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Interesting breakout. Are they overestimating Deadpool's popularity or underestimating Arthur's potential for army building? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Someone explain god case to me. Please and thankyou. God cases (formally called custom cases) mean that every 2-pack in each case is packed evenly. For example, in a standard Marvel case you would only have one variant pack, and thus it would only be possible to get one full set out of the case. In a custom Marvel case, there is 3 of each pack, including the variant, so you are able to get 3 full sets out of each case. Most retailers are only able to order the standard cases, as the custom cases require not only a very high minimum order quantity, but also other ordering requirements as well.

ImABarRoomHero Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) Possible. As I may well be stealing all the Arthurs out of those packages and leaving IM by his lonesome. Kara you can have my Arthur if you like. I have everything pre-ordered and I do NOT want any of the Capcom pieces. So if anyone wants to trade let me know.

Chronotrigger Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I really wish Jean didn't come with Morrigan. I already have the past 2 Morrigan. This one actually doesn't look better than those to me. I wanted Jean packed with a character I didn't have like Arthur or Dante. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I ran across this on the net and wondered if any of these other ones are going to happen? Kinney Pride Blog Link Yeah - designs and protypes for a great deal more than this first official wave have been shown at previous toy fairs/comic cons. Here are some of the Prototypes. So far, only the Wave 1 Specialty Store wave has been announced. If the first wave does well, i'm sure AA/DST will release all the characters that they have previewed so far, and hopefully one or two more. (MODOK - i'm looking at you!)

Lobsterman Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I keep wondering: how would they do a minimate MODOK? A big sculpted head with regular-size arms and legs hanging off? I can't imagine how it would have any resemblance to the core mm body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine how it would have any resemblance to the core mm body. I think it would be something similar to what you've described, taking the path that some of the RGB stuff has: Very over-sculpted headpieces and bodies with just the arms or legs to carry the minimate 'spirit'.
