Was a Thanos a Skrull? Discuss.

Wait, there are more than one Thanos!? 

So, 

Boxset: Spidey, Hydroman, Happy, May

Walgreens: Spidey/Big Hydroman, Peter/MJ, Nick Fury/Mysterio, Another Spidey/Ned

Or do they skip the boxset, cut a Hydroman, a Spidey, Ned, and MJ

Trailer looks good!

No 9 and no 10 yet for me. Barely 2 full sets of 8....

Haven’t seen the movie yet, but I assumed she was tinkering with Predator tech

Desmodius is now in inventory on the DST store. Some of you may balk at our UPS shipping prices (we're looking into other options), so you may want to think about shopping for others or getting some MM stands to make it easier to justify. We still have a couple of the early Gotham Box Sets, if this is your Man-Bat.

Do you plan to bring any of these to C2E2?

Me too, but no shiny versions yet.

I still say to bring back Minimates Max, but as articulated figures. An 8-inch Minimate base body, with the above mentioned parts, as needed. Include 2 standard Minimate pilots. Aim for a $30-$40 price point.

What about Doc Ock from Spider-Man 2? That and a pair of Deadpool movie waves are what I would want the most.

I’m a little disappointed that we didn’t get a Flashback set from the tWo Spider-Man 3 waves we got with Dock Ock and Power Ranger Goblin.

Look on, I think, page 8 of this thread. Spot was the first character Zach shared, and the shot of him has the stands out and the jump stand; it looks great!

Just placed my order. Did we ever see a picture of the Spidey from this wave? I was just scrolling through and didn’t see anything. I was surprised it was a dark Iron Spidey. 

I didn’t mind organizing it last year, but I missed getting to participate. If anyone else is able to organize, I would participate 

I caught 5 Shiny Beldum and many more regular ones. I evolved 2 regular and a shiny to Metagross. Of course, as soon as the event ended I hatched a pretty high IV Beldum from an egg. oh well.

I caught an 80% Giratina yesterday. We had 6 in our party and hit 2 Giratina raids. 2 people were in a car, so I didn't have contact with them. Of the 4 of us that were out, I was the only one who caught Giratina at the first raid and no one(of the 4) caught it at the second. Mine was a nice throw on the first toss and it stuck.

Not sure, we're working on it.

But yes, Series 9 is in stores, I have heard. Can't remember if I saw it in Brookfield, CT when I was there. 

Not... sure...? ?

To the 'is' question? Or to the 'soon' question?

Gen 4 is out! I have caught an evolved form of one of the bug types, already. Others are around, but not close enough at the moment.

I haven’t gotten an invite yet. Everyone locally who has has gotten a Raid at 1pm on a Monday.

Very cool!

It’s too bad that we aren’t getting Minimates based on either of the new Marvel animated projects. I would love mates for Into the Spiderverse, so many different options there.

An assortment for Marvel Rising would be great too:

Quake, Ghost Spider, Ms. Marvel, Squirrel Girl, and Patriot could anchor.

Target and Walmart both have large spaces for these properties....

The Arrowverse doesn't really have as many viable characters, though.

I mean, aside from Huntress, Kid Flash, Elongated Man, Black Canary, Black Canary II, Black Canary III, White Canary, Black Siren, Vibe, Killer Frost, the Atom, John Constantine, Ra's al Ghul, Talia al Ghul, Deathstroke, Deadshot, Zoom, Grodd, Captain Cold, Superman, Arsenal, Speedy, Wild Dog, Mr. Terrific, Bronze Tiger, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Spartan, Katana, Wildcat, Artemis, Vigilante, Dark Archer, Firestorm I, Firestorm II, Reverse Flash, XS, Jesse Quick, Gypsy, Thinker, Heat Wave, Jay Garrick, Trickster I, Trickster II, Vandal Savage, Peek-A-Boo, James Olsen, Martian Manhunter, Red Tornado, The Ray, Rip Hunter, Vixen I, Vixen II, Steel, Isis, Jonah Hex, Connor Hawke, Hourman, Obsidian, Doctor Mid-Nite, Stargirl, Mon-El, Brainiac 5, Miss Martian, Silver Banshee, Saturn Girl, Reign, Batwoman, Metallo, Lex Luthor, General Zod, and multiple variants of the title characters, what else is there?

Maybe if you shoehorn some of the Black Lightning cast in there you might be able to fill an assortment. Maybe.

You missed:

Lana Luther, King Shark, Amanda Waller, N’isa al Ghul, Lois Lane

But, I get it, women and a giant man-shark would never sell.

Salaak was produced ten years ago ...would he have been the first Minimate with a non-cylindrical moulded head ? 

When was the Silence of the Lambs set released? Both Hannibal heads were sculpted.

Yes you would need comic Mandarin's green hips, as both costumes will be color matched to that. And then you would need flesh colored legs and arms, and something for the ankle wings - I will be custom making the ones for the figure, but you could use Namor's or make your own. Mine will be white sticker paper on top of clear plastic that is cut, folded, and punched. I could make an extra set of those upon request for anyone who is assembling a 2nd body.

I would take an extra set, please. And by flesh colored, will your Agent 88 mate’s work, or will it be a different color of flesh?

Unfortunately I don't have the extra parts to be able to offer that this time.

Can you tell us what parts we would need, so we can start checking our parts bins, please?

After failing on the EX Raid, I went up with the people who were there to try for a Regirock. We defeated it, and I threw 4 Excellent Curveballs and 2 Great Curveballs, all with golden rasp berries, and he broke out every time; I didn't get him.

So jealous! I keep trying to get my new group to hunt Mewtwo locally, but I think everyone else has like 10 already.... 

Reached level 7. I also hatched a Mr. Mime from a gift egg! Just need Kangastan and Mewtwo. Plus a few evolutions to finish Kanto!
