HellfireSamurai

Very careful & slow in trying to separate them. Sometimes heat helps but overall it seems to work better on the older mates & the unpainted ones that are cast in the needed color. I don't use any tools & just grip with my fingers as good as I can & slowly & gently pull outwards while moving the knee joint at the same time to wiggle it out.

I used a combo of the crotch from a Tony Chu & the hips down are from a Barney Ross. Was planning on possibly swapping out the upper left thigh with a battle damaged Spirit thigh & the right thigh for the right thigh of Wendy from Sin City since the print on it would simulate the twine on Eric's leg.

For those that have got the Clone Aga set; did anyone find their Goblin's head/cape piece missing a peg inside? Noticed my opener didn't have one but it doesn't look like it broke off after since the paint covers where a break would be & was just wondering if my set was a one off or if it is standard. I will say despite not having the peg it really isn't an issue since the piece sits fine without it & honestly shouldn't come out of place due to the sculpt. Just asking out of curiosity since it got me wondering if big headpieces/helmets are gonna go back to not having pegs.

Well what might make that worse is that I'm not really even a wrestling fan & only got it for this Eric Draven QC. https://www.instagram.com/p/DHMxMMMMH8Z/?igsh=MWJlanRkb296MThhaw==

So it seems that I lucked out & my LCS got the new AEW set in before other places. Forgive any lack of quality but figured I'd try to post a pic for those interested.

I too need my samurai rabbit. Heed the call DST. Get Sakai on board so you can give us Usagi Yojimbo minimates. Heck even as a seperate line from the Tmnt as it's own thing would be good since then they could hit other characters too

Would have liked an all Foot pack. Granted I usually buy 2-3 sets but that is for the 1 to open, 1 to keep packaged (or signed at cons), if 3 then 1 for if something happens to the open set/parts. Really don't want to have to open a bunch of sets just to have the army builders. Don't really need a bunch of extra open named characters

Feeling old now remembering the Street Fighter Joe line.... Personally, they stay with the other Capcom/game based mates near my game systems set up but I have swapped Guiles head for Jean Claude's from the Expendables every so often

Are claims/requests still possible?

The best upgrade to this set would be GR having a static stand of his motorcycle but alas that will not happen. Hoping we get some chains for him though.

@DSTZach Any info you can give on what kind of accessories; if any; the Tmnt set has other than the weapons?

Well definetly gonna get my spare sets ordered then since my LCBS only had one when I went in. Mainly got it for the 2099 update, thwip hands& web parts. Debating on if I really want to to slice off a Spider-Ham's head to drill a neck hole to plop it on the Itsy Bitsy body.

That makes me think it could be based on a few different versions. 2003, Live-action movie, the bros from the past in Last Ronin or the team from the new Last Ronin 2: Re-evolution comics are the main ones that come to my mind.

So with that part about being before your time; does that mean we can rule out an official DSTZach minimate as part of a 25th promo? Lol Also while it is a long shot; a Battle of the Planets set would be freaking awesome. Just one 6pk with all the heroes & main villian would be a dream.

@DSTZach please say we get some "thwip" hands with this set. "Thwip" hands need to come standard with all Spiders from now on.
