QC issues, Anyone else getting a lot of wrong arms?
highassroller replied to TBT!'s topic in Crisis of Infinite Minimates
The only back wards arm I ever had were two Supermans from the C3 line. I have had too many broken joints spanning different Lines. LOTR, Marvel, DC -
New Minimates are here, but where's BSG?
highassroller replied to highassroller's topic in TV, Movie, & Video Game Minimates
Finally broke down and bought a set off ebay. I got all 4 2-packs including the variant figure for $49.95. Was this a good deal? I see alot of 2-pack BSG figures on ebay go for like 15.00 each after shipping/handling. What I really wanted was a bunch of Apollos and Starbucks to make an army of Sheild Regristration Agents. When I tried going to my local Graham Crackers they didn't even order any BSG in. -
New Minimates are here, but where's BSG?
highassroller replied to highassroller's topic in TV, Movie, & Video Game Minimates
So Six is the rare BSG figure, good to know. It's too bad that they are so hard to find. Thanks for the info guys. I work in Chicago by the Loop, which store did you get your's from Amazing JL? -
Hi all, I just got a bunch of minimates of the new X3 and DC wave 2. Is it me or is it very hard to find the BSG minimates at comic stores? It seems that they are very expensive as well. Can someone shed some light on how much these minimates should cost, and which are the variants? I am not a follower of the BSG story line.

Does "Accountability" include making zombie cyborgs from tissue of dead heroes that murder living heroes? And than hiring villians to kill more heroes? And finishing off with imprisoning heroes for breaking a law Tony Stark devised? Ironman has had no accountability thus far, and has done very sneaking low browed tactics (Read Black Panther) to force his position. When the Village People tackled Captain America in the end, it was ludacris and a poor attempt and "proving" Ironman's point. I still say as a master stategist, Cap should have known that there would be collateral damage from the moment he formed the resistance. And what about the dozens of heroes who stood by Cap's belief? They put so much trust and their lives in Cap. Cap would never give up and let them all down. He potentially left all his men in one gesture to be arrested and imprisoned in the Negative Zone. But a Captain always does what he can to save his men. He would never leave Namor and Black Panther screwed. He screwed and killed Wakanda. Anti-climatic.

Marvel Zombie boxed set pics at NY comic con '07
highassroller replied to MINI_MYTE's topic in Marvel Minimates
Why is hulk missing a hand? In the comic, it was Wolverine, Spiderman, Panther, Cap, and Ironman who were missing whole body parts. Did the right hand just fall off the prototype? Very cool stuff! -
The ending was crap. First off, Cap is a master military and offensive stategist, and he didn't anticipate that there would be possible massive collateral damage? Especially since he witnessed Goliath's death by a Thor clone. So he is supposed to suddenly realize this and give up? He never quits, B.S. Also, why would the village people tackle Cap at the end?? He's freaking Cap.

Suncoast Cylon 5 Pack
highassroller replied to AdyCarter's topic in TV, Movie, & Video Game Minimates
I would love a set please. Someone PM me I can pay via paypal on ebay. -
You know, I was looking at the diamond on my Star Sapphire minimate and mine is colored solid black, I also notice pics above where it is also black. But the picks Mini Myte has shows the diamond is reddish. Does anyone else have a black diamond? Is this a factory error like Sentry's missing belt?
-
Wow, looks like there's no need for me to take pics or post any more reviews! You guys are fast. I paid $6.38 for each two pack. I still can't believe my entire Superman right leg snapped off, I hope this was a fluke, but I have a feeling that it is not. I open my minimates with great care and patience.

I'm at work right now, without my minimates. I'll try to post some tonight.

I actually think that they are the same plastic as the target minimates they have been selling. It's basically a softer plastic so be careful when bending the joints, especially those damn knees. I think the previous C3 plastic was great, never had an issue. I hope Bane will still come out to be 2.5

Wow, folks, I was lucky enough to nab all 4 of these DC Wave 1 beauties yesterday afternoon from my supplier friend. Here is my quick review of the figures. Lex Luthor is only a 2 inch minimate YES! Accessories rock and are plenty Omac's color is now a translucent blue and he has interchangable hands Paint apps are great Frontal box art is bland Harley comes with a hair peice and a new civilian face Joker does not come with a hairpeice, only a hat The plastic seems cheaper. My superman leg snaped in half instantly after purchase GREAT NEW CUSTOM PARTS!!!! I also noticed that these are a whole .50 cheaper than Marvel Minimates. DC wins this round hands down.

Thursdays Announcement: She-Hulk & Wonder Man
highassroller replied to AdyCarter's topic in Marvel Minimates
That's an interesting belt fit for Wonderman. Is that a modified Daredevil belt? I hope the final version has actual red cuffs, think Powerman's cuffs only in red plastic. It would make Wonderman look better & bulkier. -
How will Series 16 effect your buying intentions?
highassroller replied to Cyc's topic in Marvel Minimates
I'm really all about the DC minimates currently. I'm glad Marvel saw the competition facing them and scapped any ideas for any more cheesy Wolverine and Spiderman minimates. In the past they seem to think only more wolverine and spidermans would keep the line alive. Hopefully line 16 will sell the best, and finally shut Ast Asylums mouth. I'll only buy 14 & 15 to complete my collection. -

Best series yet. It's like they are actually listening to us!! -
Tuesdays Announcement = Bearded Thor/Loki!
highassroller replied to AdyCarter's topic in Marvel Minimates
Wow... that shut me up. Word is, Art asylum melted down all their failed minimate / maximate projects, and melted them down to make these Thors. Please let Scarlet Witch and Vision be part of this wave... -
Do you truly believe that more wolverine and spiderman variants will sell better than new character releases? Are there salestatistics, that prove this?
-
This is a ridiculous topic. Where are the complaints regarding the fact that my NXM Jean Grey minimate looks gigantic next to my hulk minimates? I welcome any size variations from D.C.
