  1. I seriously doubt they'll be called SHIELD, namely because the new SHIELD already exists and is run by Coulson and for the most part not accepted by the public. My guess is they're related to the Iron Legion or like Trekker said, they could be SWORD.

    Coulson is leading what is left of the old SHIELD, struggling, disgraced, and left in the shadows.

    However, if the Avengers rebuilt SHIELD and brought them back into the light, I could see it still being SHIELD and not something new.

  2. I don't think this will be a reboot a la DC.

    Marvel has been consistent and proud of their continuity universe. Based on their 10 year sliding scale, and that they work changes into events, they doesn't need a reboot and they know it.

    This will be more of a "crisis" event; changes will come out of it, sure, but it won't make any stories "invalid" or non-canon like DC did.

  3. Waaaaaaay back when, K-Mart carried the DC C3 Minimates.

    I'm an old fogey, though, so I may be the only person who remembers those dark, old days.

    One of the coolest things about that though was my sister could walk into a Target and buy me a Riddler Flyer as a gift because she saw it while shopping where she normally shops. No matter how much I love my family and they love me, they aren't going to go find a comic shop to get me minimates.

    Minimates at retail stores is great.

  4. There's supposed to be a 6" C3P0 coming out in the next month or so, right? I haven't seen pictures, but I guess there was a shipping manifest leaked or something? Is that confirmed?

    The list was of UPCs in a store's system but no, he's not supposed to be out soon. Hasn't even been announced, just the 3 3/4" figure. The next wave is Yoda, TIE Pilot, and Clone Sergeant.

    any idea what the 4th figure is?

    does Yoda come with a ton of accessories to make him worth $20?

  5. It will not be out relatively quickly, but it will be most definitely be used down the road, as it is a character we would want to make more of. Make of that what you will. As long as there are future TMNT Minimates, I'm sure you'll see him again.

    ...But if you want him SOON, go to Sears/Kmart. Because thy are the only ones who have him at the moment, along with Mutagen Mikey.

    I realize I am probably not the norm, being within commuting distance of NYC, but I have 5 Sears stores and 6 Kmarts within 25 miles of me. Vacuum sales not withstanding, they seem to be doing okay.

    You need to add "in some parts of the country." to the last sentence.
