  1. I really do agree that DC minimates were ahead of their times. When I look at them I really do see them as laying alot of the foundation for the way the newer marvel designs. The one thing that Marvel has yet to adopt is going to the 3 inch Minimate for characters like Apocalypse, Abomination, Wendigo, Etc. and I hope they reconsider when they renew the license and review the restrictions.

  2. I still cannot believe how fast the TRU Modok sold out on TOYSRUS.com! I thought that new minimums were put on mates so no one could buy more than 10 at a time. That sucker sold out like Hulkbuster Ironman did.

    All I need now is for Digger to give one away for free to the loudest complainer... than scalp the figure on ebay.... cause I wanted to buy something else! :rolleyes:

  3. If you are logged into the account that you used for the $108 pledge, what happens when you click the Manage your Pledge button? I just checked mine, and I can still change it.

    As for the ninja, that was a specific character from Agent 88 that Digger offered to our store. The minimum quantity was 500, and to fit within the cost restrictions, it could only have a face and chest tampo, and one accessory. The design has to be approved by DST, and as I understand it, for anything to be approved for production in this campaign, it has to be either a promo blank from an Agent 88 supporting company or a planned Agent 88 character in the series.

    This ninja minimate was a stroke of luck in that it fit into this license within this Kickstarter and through Digger, as usually the minimum quantities are 3,000 for a license that DST already has, and 10,000 for a new license (again, as I understand it from my Diamond rep).

    I still have the Manage your Pledge button. Click on it and you will find that you cannot actually submit a change. I could change my pledge $ and gift, but it would not accept the change. It also does not accept cancelations. I was going to cancel and start a new one, but the damn site doesn't allow you to rebuy under the same email address either at this point.

    Good score on the ninja mates. It's more jealousy and envy I need to get past.

  4. Is something wrong with the site? I can't upgrade my 108 pledge to 138.00 for the ultimate minimate collection. Totally sucks that they keep adding new minimate prizes but seemed to lock out the changes or manage your pledge option.

    I have to cry foul to the last miniute change in gifts and not letting you update your pledge. And that Luke Toy Store Ninja really does piss me off a bit too. I've been wanting a limited run/release minimate for some time, but all I got was a single custom for over $1,000.00. I know politics play a role but I believe in the almighty dollar should be the final decision maker.

  5. I've only ever seen people abbreviate The Dark Knight Returns to DKR. Even Dark Knight Returns Again is just DK2. TDKR actually DOES mean The Dark Knight Rises. So, you should go watch the movie again, or I don't know, read some Batman books. Not sure why everyone else's posts were a problem, they were making very obvious jokes. :rolleyes:

    ANYWAY, love the Scarecrow, Rocco. What torso is that?? It's perfect!!

    Loved his costume in TDKR. The hay was great; if he had his mask it would totally have passed for a comic Crane.

    Thanks Two Face,

    But I don't think we need to address his inaccurate comments or correct him any further. Let's just bring on that Batman Begins custom and share the recipe!

  6. Fodder, Ra's is the main villain in the first Nolan Batman Begins movie and the person who rescues the mutilated protector of Talia from the pits and trains him to become Bane.

    Also, best not to discuss my comic book collection... Do not want to make you any more jealous or Trollish. Let's just keep to this thread and comments on these great customs.

    I want to see the Batman next!

  7. Can anyone here show me the link or Thread that has ButtHeadMates Collection? I believe this senior member is the only person with a collection larger than mine on this site and I am in the process of wrapping up my collection pics. Unfortunately I had to break them up into lots to make them all fit in my pictures to still show detail.

    Very Curious how one would show case huge/complete collections. I personally had to take my mates down and lay them out in my living room carpet. Otherwise it would have been like 25 pics of small sets/displays on the wall.

  8. Bane was reborn or born again in prison in the movie and in comics is basically born in one. U guys can't take a joke? Roller,I know you specifically can buy a sense of humor with all that cash money. On a side note, tom hardy was actually born in a prison.

    No, seriously.... We are referencing TDKR, and TDKR customs, not the Vengeance of Bane One Shot Comic...

    Bane was merely imprisoned in the pit in the movie and acted like a loving "Protector". It was not until Ra's Al Ghul rescued his badly mutilated body from the pit that he actually joined the League of Assassins and became reborn as "Bane". Watch the movie, Bane's mask or training did not begin/occur until he was rescued from the pits...

    And great custom Scare Crow mask!!!!!
