@BuffaloD - you had to buy multiple of wave 60 to complete the team too. That's why I pivoted & suggested a "New Mutants Sentinel" army builder with M/F Hellions as the swap figs. You buy multiple, but at least you get army builders out of it, rather than e.g. multiple Pyros.

What I meant was that you'd have to buy multiple one per case variant sets.

I'd be beyond excited for a Runaways show, but I'm not sure I'd be willing to get Hulu for it.

The problem with that wave idea is you'd have to buy multiple variants to complete the team.

Kurt's sword is a fantastic addition. I can't wait for this wave.

My LCS has them, unfortunately while I'm out of town.

Jetstream seems to have a very inconsistent skintone, from whiteish, to not quite white, to grey (!), to black.

It's a shame he wasn't wearing some kind of torn yellow jumpsuit.

Yes!

They'll need a couple box sets to cover the Defenders season as the heroes will cover a box all by themselves!

I think we 'll actually be getting a wave when that comes around.

Not bad but I'm seeing more than one flesh color on that team. We'll need multiple chest blocks, too.

Yeah, the same chest block would work for the girls, but all three of the boys would need a different chest block. Although, Proudstar is bulky enough that he could use a chest cap to cover one of the other skin tones.

Ripley or the APC? APC will be damaged, since Ripley damaged it. 

It'll be a variation on Jumpsuit Ripley, who was never available at TRU.

 

Oops, sorry. I meant Ripley.

Or instead of Karen. Much rather have everyone else in that 4 pack than Karen. 

Eh, I'd say Karen is a main character, certainly more so than Stick or someone who shows up in the shadows and a fight scene. I'll be a bit disappointed if we don't get her. (Although I guess there's always S3.)

TRU will get a BD APC with Ripley.

 

Will it be a new version?

There will be a Daredevil Season 2 box set. I've seen art.

And Punisher has his own series coming up, maybe we'll revisit him then.

 

Oh, that's great!

Season 2 box set? Battle damaged Daredevil, Karen, Elektra,

Nobu

 

 

This sounds about right. The only other thing I can imagine would be Stick instead of your fourth character.

I'd like to see a new Jewel minimate because of Jessica Jones' newfound popularity. Danny, Matt, and Luke have all been rereleased in Greatest Hits wave 2, so she's the only Netflix Defender who doesn't have a currently available comic counterpart.

They look great, but I'm not sure why they had to be SDCC exclusives. I could see a whole wave based on Daredevil S2:

Daredevil/Karen

Elektra/Stick

Punisher/Hand Ninja with Nobu parts

Prison Fisk/Hand Ninja with Nobu parts

And then the exclusive could be battle damaged Daredevil/Prison Castle,

I believe he was.

I'd guessed the response would be something of that sort.

Happy Birthdays!

Nope, they've never put them on their website... Also fair warning to others; DO NOT look up Minimates on the Walgreens site... It brings up very, very, VERY bad results. namely products for ladies... enjoyment.

 

Can we just pin that or something so people don't have to keep saying it?

Do we have an unfinished teams thread?

Maybe we did before the Purge, but even if it's still there it hasn't been used in a while.

That's weird. What does it look like then? If anyone has a picture. Is it a new sculpt or just something old that DST threw together.

It's overall the same mold as the original bow, however, it has a hole in the place of the notch for the arrow. I think the notch is an additional part that is glued into the bow. I thought it was just mine, but it seems multiple copies of this pack lack the notch piece.

EDIT: My mistake, it's still missing the arrow notch, but isn't the "Best Of" mold. It's the mold that was used by the first Hawkeye minimate.

I agree. I loved the Purple/Yellow uniforms, gave the team an actual unified aesthetic. It hasn't really made it's mark on history, though, for sure. I doubt it would be very high on the list of minimates to be made.

 

Especially since we already have two unfinished 90's X-Forces.
