    Ummm....so was that it?  TRU wave and BC avengers to Walgreens. Nothing for any other line?  Nothing new for speciality?

    all in on a drug store while NECA now has a section in Target to replace their TRU loss?

    Please tell me you're not surprised,  DST is not known for making good choices.

  2. I've been speculating on the end of  Minimates  for awhile now, with diminishing amounts of different lines, some major ones like POTC, and Aliens reaching their ends  and distribution issues plaguing it,

    mostly i was met with jeers, and cries that "the sky is falling" type comments.

    And all that was before the Major retailer(Toys Were Us) for MM went belly up.

    now no convention exclusives and more issues with Walgreens which we are being told could be our Savior  next large retailer.

    I think DST has mostly written off MMs in favor of Vinimates anyway

    Id be surprised if we see many more releases.

  3. I think we can all see the way this is going, eventually (soon) Walgreens will decide that Minimates are not worth the shelf space, and they will discontinue them.

    If only we had someone,  who maybe worked for the Manufacturing company, that ultimately stands to get or lose our money due to walgreens carrying or not carrying  minimates,

    who could be proactive in discussing these problems with Walgreens.

    1 separate SKUs for waves

    2 discounting older waves

    3 having Minimates be available to order on  their website

  4. Anyone playing this?

    I just finished it up 100% in 25:03( though in reality it would be alot less time as there were plenty of times that it just sat on while i was eating or using the bathroom, I wasnt really concerned about the time element)

    its a bit easier than the last few Lego games but still fun, they made the flight controls better than the last few games  too

  5. I havent seen any more of IW2 since i got a set 5 weeks ago, none at any of the other Walgreens and the store i found them at now has tons of Ragnarok sets again, still no sign of the latest animated series either

    Actually, at least on several piece's, the top half is its own hollow piece glued onto a "ridge" around the belt line. Then for some licenses the necks are a large type of ball joint, where others like DC vini's have a round platform on top of the neck that the head is glued onto.

    I don't know if the DC ones also have the ball joint as I haven't had to pop one off yet. The arms are glued on, but  on the ones I have messed with I have no types of joints

     

    yep, i totally forgot about the mid section, i only own a couple of them and was going by my memory  of  the Kevin smith one that i bought back in the beginning of the line,  with the intention of customizing and never did.

    From her power. I'm pretty sure she was confirmed to be Surge.

    NOPE!

     

    When actress Shiolo Kutsuna was first seen in one of the Deadpool 2 trailers swinging around an electrified chain weapon, it was speculated that she was playing Surge, a member of the New X-Men. But Deadpool 2 co-writer Rhett Reese clarified to Comic Book Resources that Kutsuna's character was just an altered version of Yukio, saying:

    She's a super-minor character. The character's name is actually Yukio, an assassin --- but who's an adult assassin, so we just aged her down. She's such a minor character, we thought we could pretty much get away with anything.

  8. sorry Rob,

    i was just so excited about Rose being the old lady and jack drowning despite all that floating debris and then how rose throws the diamond back in the water and the alien ship that rises up after as the diamond was the ultimate power source that they needed to conquer the universe and then the Joker falls from the ladder on the helicopter and dies and and and  ......oops i did it again sorry

    Was it a typo for may 1st release? my store just got two black panther waves in.

     

    i dont think so, as i posted a page back i found a complete set of IW 2 but no sign of the wasp wave

    I just got my Infinity War boxset in the mail.  My son and I excitedly sat down to open it up and finish off wave 1.  We were both disappointed when Winter Soldier's leg stayed in the packaging when the rest came out.  Thanos was missing the upper right-hand slip cover.  Basic QC issues can be a real bummer.

    that sucks!
