Series 20 is not blind-bagged. Two-packs. The difference is in content, not presentation.

One clarification -- it is a one-off change for 20, and not a sea change for TRU Minimates as I previously implied.

Series 21 will be more similar to 19, although it will be shared with comic shops.

I could hug you so hard right now.

Please no blind bags. Securing TRU Exclusives is already stressful the way it is.

I would not be mad if each member of the Wrecking Crew was packed w/a Spider-Man variant.

Wolverine/Sentinel is for sale from TRU on ebay, 97 sets available!

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to grab some extra Sentinels for the army.

That's MK-45 I believe. I'm wondering if the Hulkbuster is 44.

All are happening. I told you we'd make everybody, it's maybe a little more than we've done before. Iron Man 2 and Wolverine Origins both had two series at TRU and specialty, right? Each of those had four packs. Plus, there were some Borders two-packs for IM 2.

Last thing is still pending, but it will fill a few holes.

I've only been awake for an hour & this has already made my day. I'm hoping I can afford to purchase two sets of everything.

I found a full case today. I walked up & down the Marvel isle 4 or 5 times before an employee pointed them out to me an isle over next to the NECA Godzilla figures & empty G.I. JOE pegs. I walked right by them earlier & didn't even notice them.

The 2nd Vision looks to be a "Phasing" variant.

I struck out yesterday as well. I really, really hope these pop up on the website soon.

I have to be honest, I'm kinda glad these are not hitting next week. My body is ready, but my bank account is not.

TRU.com has the TMNT Minimates in stock including Mutagen Leo.

Completely unrelated to anything but this is the first comic I remember buying.

Spidey & Cap vs...THE CATERPILLAR!!!!

I love how the colors on these Minimates pop. I enjoy modern toned down comics, but I miss brightly colored comics sometimes too.

This is Hastings we are talking about. They have the WORST customer service I have ever dealt with. They don't have a central warehouse as they ship items individually from different stores. Annnnnd if they ship you the wrong item, they CANNOT ship a replacement. But you'll receive a refund in 3-4 WEEKS.

How does an online store NOT have a picture of it's own exclusive posted?

Marvel Legends gets a Machine Man & Carol Danvers Captain Marvel. I always thought Minimates would release both before anyone else.

There are three AOU 2-packs for TRU, although not sure what else that's movie-based, and three non-movie assortments TBA. Plenty for one chain.

THREE MORE non-movie waves? ZOMFG!

Please please PLEASE let one of those waves have the remains of Capullo X-force in it (Sunspot, Warpath, Siryn and maybe Gideon & Stryfe just for fun!)

YES! One more X-Men wave wouldn't hurt anyone.

And a giant Galactus Bust Bank done in the Minimate style would rock so hard. It would make such a fearsome backdrop for my F4 Minimates. The same goes for a Sentinel. Imagine a Celestial Bust Bank.

Hastings had a BOGO 1/2 off on action figures today. I picked up a couple of their exclusives for $30.

OT: Those of you who read this series in trade form, did any of you buy the Omnibus' or Compendiums? I have the 1st 10 volumes through Amazon's Kindle Store, but the rest of the volumes are no longer available. I need to desperately catch up, but could use a little advice on where to go. Right now I'm leaning towards picking up the Omnibus' despite them being more expensive. Any thoughts?

I've been buying 2 full sets of Minimates since wave 28 so blind bags don't bother me AS LONG AS I CAN ACQUIRE THEM THROUGH SPECIALTY OUTLETS i.e. Luke's or BBTS. If Marvel blind bags make their way to other retailers like Toys R Us, etc., I'm going to rage because I don't have access to TRU, Kmart, etc.

When I was a kid back in the 80's, ALL of my TMNT came from K-Mart. Then Wal-Mart came to town & K-Mart closed shop. It would have been a nice if K-Mart was still even relevant in my state so I could @ least find a Kraang.

A direct market wave, TRU wave, & box set would be the bee's knees.

Add an army dump to that and I might actually be satisfied with a movie assortment!

Good call. I was just thinking how Ultron drones could be the shared figure between waves, but an army dump would be even better freeing up 2 slots.

I wonder if Rhodey will have a new War Machine armor. If so, there is another potential Minimate.

A direct market wave, TRU wave, & box set would be the bee's knees.

I'm of the camp who believes Klaw doesn't need a costume at all. He just needs his sonic emitter doo-dad.

If we don't get a Hulkbuster Ironman, I'm going to riot.

& by riot, I mean sit in the corner & pout because I'm not that violent.
