groundhog7s Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 There's some First Class news in AA's blog today confirming movie series mates. It states to look in the gallery, but so far there's nothing yet. After seeing the Beast, I'm not sure how I feel about these. Maybe seeing them all together will change my mind.

MINI_MYTE Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Looks like there saving on tooling and reusing a lot of part with Beast. I see Wolfman's hands and feet and a Logan hairpiece. I bet the majority (if not all) of mates in this wave will reuse existing parts.

undeadpool Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 i dont know if its just me but i think they are trying to make these fit in better with comic book mates. the costume is still the movie version but the styling seems more like something we'd see in a comicbook wave. personally i LOVE the look of this beast and i cant wait to see more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthFLGuy Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 http://www.artasylum.com/gallery/x-men-fir...lass-minimates/ pictures are up. I'm a bit meh on them. I will probably get the Sebastian Shaw one though. I also dig the Emma and Mystique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronotrigger Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Meh. They're kind of boring design wise. I'll probably only get a loose Emma on the cheap to make a modern Colleen Wing. Other than that I'll save some cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) So how do you guys think these'll get distributed? Two 4-packs or four 2-packs? P.S: Sebastian Shaw looks Elvis fat to me. Very funny. Edited February 16, 2011 by MINI_MYTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronotrigger Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Oh and azazel's(really??) claws for a Zoidberg custom! Edited February 16, 2011 by Chronotrigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawcanada Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 To be honest I'm not too fussed about this movie or these minimates, but I might get Beast, Azazel and MAYBE Havok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronotrigger Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Yeah the movie sounds like a hot mess. To be honest I'm not too fussed about this movie or these minimates, but I might get Beast, Azazel and MAYBE Havok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Somehow the thought of minimates of January Jones and James McAvoy is making my lungs burst from laughter. And I'm sorry, but that does not look like Kevin Bacon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthFLGuy Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I know there is a SKU for xmen first class minimates in the TRU computer system as I mentioned in the other Xmen First class movie mates thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 ok i have never had say a bigger MEH in my life, these are bland and uninteresting, having said that i will buy everyone of them, though the reason i will do this is so i can make comic accurate teams using the movie costumes. seriously though this could have been a great wave, even with previously released peices, they could have atleast given azazeal mehphistos hairpeice so he wouldnt look stupid, and i would have much rather gotten an updated white queen than anotrher emma in tights. and my final problem is that DST finally had a window to (atleast their faces) give us banshee!! and they didnt take it having said all that...sebastion looks pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) These look cool. I'll get them. I think everyone is really apprehensive about the movie but I think it'll be really good and these'll do well. Just so long as they don't flood TRU like they did with Wolverine. I STILL have some of those there. Also, I love movie mystique. Edited February 16, 2011 by TM2 Dinobot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkerbean Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Yes.... just what i wanted to see, i agree they're all pretty much the same but with new headpieces but they all look fantastic loving Azazel & the new Mystique the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Are those claws on Azazel or retreads of Saalak's hands? Also, I hope Mags comes with his helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkguerilla Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 While I don't normally get moviemates, I might just have to get that Emma Frost. Not because I'm overly excited about her, but because I think it would make a great Sharon Carter QC. Man, if this wave comes after the Thor and Captain America movie waves, this is going to be a really light year for me with minimates. Here's hoping that they announce some more comic waves by the time we hit San Diego. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniFiend UK Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 After the great showings of Thor Moviemates and I would say Cap Am mates as well. These look MEH. Will I buy them, yes but wont go out my way if there are others around at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it, Fox rushed the movie to keep the liscence...minimates can re use existing parts, and in this case slap a tampo on a blank body and BOOM x men first class mercendise in time for movie release... but as said above, when the bar was rasied with thor and cap...these look. well cheap... moc847 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwoosheyman Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I look forward to buying them to use the parts for customs when they go on clearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I really dig the Havok for some reason. He just looks neat as a figure with that psychedelic circle on his chest. Other than that, dull and uninteresting as I have come to expect from Movie-Mates in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 atleast these could come with loads of accesories...that would make them worth while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
