That looks great, Onyx. Well done. 

Thanks! I am happy to share the process if anyone wants to try it themselves.

Technically we can get sets like those. The bikes just need to be stands with static, non-spinning wheels so they don't qualify as "vehicles." That's how other licensees get around the category. Mezco offered Batmobiles as "accessories" with their Mez-Itz figures and the wheels were fixed in place so they didn't turn to become a functional vehicle.

DST has to jump through a similar hoop with DC Vinimates by fixing the figures' heads so that Mattel doesn't get their action figure toes stepped on.

Totally. I would love for the Minimates to come with static ‘riding’ legs that can be swapped out for the lower torso or for bikes to have the legs sculpted to them. That way it  could be ‘alternate motorcycle look’ included.

And see, for the $500 price tag, here I was naively thinking this was a 6 inch scale Sail Barge. That would seem worth it.... not 3.75 inch, though.

Too bad we can get sets like this for Minimates: http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/70250

Widow especially looks great!

I made one out of foam board and poster board:

Funny, because thats a big part of the show soon. Coulson has some weird alien disease and if they try to save him, Quake will....well quake apart the world. So yeah, I guess they are gonna wrap it like that.

 

But, again, I just really want this to come full circle and tie back into the MCU.

You mean LCS Box Set.

Wave would have been nice with Outrider Army Builders.

About 14 years ago we had 2. The East side one went out of business and became a dedicated BRU. That is the one that may, or may no longer, be closing.

Yes, Marvel seems to rarely be restocked at Madison, especially Marvel movie waves. Not sure why.

WINNER!!!

How about a knocked arrow arm? A solid arm piece with the upper and lower arms at, say 135 degrees. Allow a regular hand to fit in the end and you can even use it for a character getting ready to throw a punch.

Genius!

I hope March 1st....

That happened to me with the first set I found of the Black Panther mates. It just means they didn’t get a price put into the register. At least I am pretty sure that is what it means.

Pics?

They were on eBay, although I guess what I saw was the Vanity Fair covers, but without text: https://wdwnt.com/2017/11/vanity-fair-gives-us-first-look-heroes-avengers-infinity-war/

It doesn’t show her with powers, but when she was on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, she kinda implied that she still has her powers from IM3. I’m hoping. She would be more welcome, especially with powered up parts, than repeats of 4 characters we got in the last month, or even Ant-Man and Wasp, who appear to be identical to their upcoming movie looks.

After seeing promotional posters, I hope we get Powered Pepper Potts.

@Gillbob316 I don’t know for certain, but I would be willing to bet that Spidey and Hulk are the TRU/Walgreens shared pack. IM/Thanos will be everywhere. Rocket and Groot at TRU. Widow and Bucky in the LCS box set.

Walgreens mate’s for me have always been between $7.99 and $8.99. Lately, though, they have been $8.49 or $8.99, depending on the store.

So, for those of you who have found these, did they ring up as part of the BOGO sale? And were they with the other Minimates?

Just picked up 2 extra TRU packs to flesh out my Dora. They rang up at 9.99 before the BOGO sale.

Don’t worry about it. Expect the best, assume the worst. The people looking to steal from the Madison TRU look for game cards, not Minimates.

Comic ironspider is supposed to only have 3

I was thinking of the Scarlet Spiders: Michael, Van, and Patrick. They have 4 and if this Spidey has 4, it will be easier to make them win this new harness and the TRU Iron-Spideys I have.

I would have preferred Laurel or even Sarah to Dinah, myself, but maybe they will be variants. They all look great, though.

zombie bass player/zombie accordianist (plastic packaging has been stapled to card -- clearly somebody was trying to steal)

All of those sets were falling off the card from the beginning. I was there when they put them out.

If anyone has a spare nakia/okoye set they'd want to sell for cost or do a trade, let me know.  The West Towne Madison TRU was pretty scarce on BP stuff last nite.

Just visiting? Or are you now in the area? Madison hasn’t restocked BP since I bought from the one case they got in. No wave 25 yet, either.

Holy shit, didn’t even notice the back of the package shows spidey with the waldoes!

Better yet, he has ALL FOUR of them!
