pk13 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Does that mean that the one per case figure will have an alternate look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonpr Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Generation snowflake has made its way to the verse. Don't put people down for complaining about exploitative, anti-consumer crap. i think companies should be called out for this kind of bullshit, even if you are too scared or cynical to do it. And if you don't realise this change of sales model is to make us, the fans and avid collectors purchase excess unnecessary product, your a sucker. Impulse buyers don't care about collecting all the characters or which character they get so this kind of distribution is focused on exploiting us. The benefits of blind bagging and short packing flow in only one direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Spider Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 lol maybe it's a sign from the minimate gods saying f--k blind bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Alternate looks are a must for blind bagged Minimates. Â Blind bags still suck. Look what the gimmick did to Hastings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

undeadpool Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 definitely gonna have to track these down, Silk, Ironman, Venom and Wolverine are must haves. Im very impressed by the prosthetic legs on Flash but disappointed Ironman doesnt come with one his cool new pixelated weapons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannii Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Wolverine could come with alternate parts for her time with the New X-Men team. She is the only character missing and I doubt we'll ever get that look... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 sincerely doubt that considering that would require a whole new body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capcom set her New X-Men look? http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=1437&n=X-23 or are you talking about the black and yellow team from Messiah Complex? Doubt we ever see those New X-Men looks. Outside of Prodigy and Laura has anyone from those books been on panel in the last 2 years? That whole Childhood's End story is soooo good though...

undeadpool Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 i assume he meant her All-New X-men uniform Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I'd like an ANAD X-23 as well, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 An ANXM X-23 would be great, but she would need way too many alternate parts here, and she's unlikely to be released anywhere else. (Except, maybe, an X-Men "finish the team wave") From this wave, I'm definitely in for Tony, Laura, and Miles, and maybe Gwen and Flash. As I said pre-Purge, I'd be happy to try to find Silk for anyone who needs her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannii Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Yeah, I was talking about the All-New X-Men uniform... Looking at the pictures I'd like to have them all but Gwen, since she's basically the same one I got from the last TRU wave. But at the sime time I'm not going back to paying a lot for Silk like I had to do for Bullseye, Moonstone or even Gambit and Psylocke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermatt Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 These look great! One question, does the X-23 wolverine come with alternate bladed feet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 yeah - there's a few characters in there that i want. I suspect their the same ones that everyone wants (X-23, Silk, Venom) - but i really don't want to have to pay insane secondary market prices from scalpers. I think i'm going to have to expand my 'i'm not buying more MCU minimates' policy to also include bling-bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostisfire Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 36 minutes ago, Nessex said: But - we already have a bladed foot piece, right? Different sculpt. This one has Wolverine-esque boots, whereas the already existing foot is just a "shoe". Hence why they'd need a new boot sculpt.  In truth, I'm not that bothered by it cause as someone else already said, she rarely uses it in the books.
