  1. oh! I found a perfect gif to for the Unarticulated Rocket topic:
  2. that’s an unfair statement.I bought every set from SFxT, Universal Monsters, and BattleBeast. Those all ended before I got all the characters I wanted.... meanwhile I’m very picky choosey about which Walking Dead sets I’ll buy and that line is THRIVING (thankfully). So clearly what I buy doesn’t encourage DST one way or another. I can want to buy the figures put out but also worry some customers will balk the idea of a $20 4-pack with only 1 or 2 characters they want. You can buy this at TRU http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=21435036&cp=2255956.2273442.3574079.11291509&parentPage=family it’s 6 figures for the price of 4 minimates, it’s mostly big names (they got Ghidorah and Mecha-G in the same set...) you have to spend $60 to get the same four heavy hitters in minimate form. Now I know why the minimates are better product then those little things, but do swappable parts and 14 poa mean anything to the guy who just wants cheap tiny Godzillas on his desk?
  3. I bought that for my mother-in-law, she watches Sy-Fy movies because they’re stupid in a fun way, and she was raving about how funny Sharknado was, so Christmas shopping done!
  4. Nope, to where I said just because Ghidorah is designed doesn't mean we're going to get him. Look I want this line to succeed so I'll smile and hope he's in wave 3 and I'm buying the first two sets, but my Universal Monsters and Street Fighter collections leave me worried I'm starting another collection of C-listers that took spaces heavy hitters that should have been made but were saved in the name of longevity the license couldn't support
  5. ..... ........ http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.php?showtopic=12706&p=305114 I’m... I’m just gonna go lay down.
  6. Well technically Venus has been active the longest of all the scouts, before even Usagi/Serena/Moon so if it’s really bothering you just display her on another shelf (wearing her mask since she was operating as Sailor V at the time) until after Jupiter arrives then have her join them... ACCURATE!
  7. Took me so long to write this it’s already been said better. So *SNIP* BAF’s are a TERRIBLE idea for minimates. They’re not going to be bigger, they’re just taking away accessories and forcing you to buy 8 characters you don’t want for the one you do. (and even if that doesn’t seem likely, eventually it WILL happen. And you’ll be like “oh I’ll just trade for him” but since BAF’s requite more effort to acquire they're pricier to obtain on the secondary market even if they’re the same size.)
  8. They’re to a smaller scale, gaming minis are about half the height of a minimate (most ‘heroes' are about the size of a Thundercats Bearbil.)So unless the scene was supposed to be scale free (like a forest) or huge (like a cathedral) it will probably need to be rescaled.
  9. This seems like the right thread for this: F**KING MARIO MAKER!!!! I thought I could live without a WiiU, but this is something I *neeed*, especially if there’s an option to download other people’s uploaded courses... of course in a perfect world this would draw from “Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario 3” (yeah, it had a weird title) where it has ALL the power-ups currently seen in Mario games (or at least all of them that would make sense in 2D) available for use, vegetables from Mario 2 and Yoshi being able to be included in the levels, and a wider selection of enemy types beyond the Mario 1 set... I would certainly love for Luigi (and dare I say, Toad or Peach) to be playable as well with his (their?!) unique move set, but I’m sure they need to make sure I buy the DLC/sequel that included that feature...
  10. all the Marvel figures look great and Maleficent is getting a figure too. *sigh* you win Disney Infinity 2.0, you can have my money ... if only because Elsa and Rapunzel doing motorcycle flips is something I need in my life.
  11. How did it compare to the original Clerks cartoon?
  12. Is it a possibility though?Since this new Godzilla is the first of a trilogy (because of course it is) when part 3 is being released you’ll have (hopefully) made most of the classic Monsters... can you guys re-up your license and make 201x Godzilla, MUTO 1, MUTO 2, whoever’s in part 2, whatever part 3 monsters they give you control art for, etc? Or is there a weird legal thing where Legacy Godzilla and Toho Godzilla are basically different properties?
  13. BREAKING BAD!!!! I didn’t think it would happen since Mezco had a master license... and they have the exact ones I want too!!! (Heisenberg, and yellow suits Jesse and Walt) Happy Day!
  14. I like my name triggers an eBay link to the Spider-man variant figure. That’s fun.Also stretch goals announced for Reading Rainbow! if it gets to $5 million more 7,500 schools will get it for free and the app will be put on the XBox Marketplace and Playstation Store.... this is amazing because if they can get the app onto game consoles it will create an entire generation of Hannibal Lectors who’s Xbox’s made them super smart from all the easy access to all the books and super murderous from all the easier access to all the first person shooters!!!
  15. I honestly don’t care if this fixes education or not... honestly the original Reading Rainbow didn’t do sh*t either, I f**king hate reading (books... bah, books are just comics made by someone who can’t draw so they need to spend 3 paragraphs telling you what could be shown in one panel, they say comics aren’t really books, I say comics are book for people who’s time maters. Web-sites?! Your information better be in handy listicle format or F**K THAT SH*T there’s naked ladies on the internet, you think I gots time to read 50 paragraphs and GUESS where the vital information is?! and subtitles?! F**king dub that sh*t man! If I want a chore while I’m watching a movie I’ll to do the dishes don’t make the movie my f**king chore!)and I watched that show every morning before school. Nope, I gave my $10 (at a $5 level since I don’t want any of the prizes... although I considered the picnic because that sounds like it’ll be fun, it wouldn’t be since no one ever wants to sit outside and eat mediocre food with 50+ random strangers but ‘picnic lunch’ sounds fun on paper, but decided I’d rather eat $1,500 in a bowl with ranch dressing while watching TNG on Netflix to simulate the experience) because like I said... WE ALL *OWE* LEVAR BURTON you can not give if you don’t want to give, but when it’s all said and done it’s you who has to look in the mirror and know you let America’s LeVar Burton population down.
  16. I usually love this kind of relationship guide, but this one with it’s super graphic representations of the characters AND being unlabeled makes it harder to follow than it should. And no it’s not a “read more comics” thing, I already knew for example Wolverine was cloned to make X-23 but her icon looks like DoFP Movie Quicksilver since I don’t like her mask and don’t instantly see it as part of her design. Also the “confused? read more comics” leads to heir of elitism as I was aware Xavier has a son and Sabretooth/Mystique have one together, but both of these lads’ names escape me... I could have learned them if this had any kind of markings on it.
  17. Help some kids: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/readingrainbow/bring-reading-rainbow-back-for-every-child-everywh LeVar Burton wants to bring back Reading Rainbow for the digital age, and after all LeVar Burton has done for you don’t you owe him at least a couple of bucks?
  18. 6/4?!?!?! (checks calendar) eh I guess that’s basically next week...<br /><br />I want a scale pic of Goku and the scouts when you get him... if he’s in scale I might want him too.
  19. grrrrrrr... F**KING CAPTAIN AMERICA 2 MINIMATES SHIP ALREADY!!!!
  20. RACIST!vampires aren’t a kind of zombie any more than zombies are a kind of vampire, they’re both a kind of UNDEAD.
  21. it’s a tabletop game (so actual physical role playing game), and it’s a fairly popular one at that as it’s an expansion on D&D 3.5 released when Wizards of the Coast released Ver 4 so it’s sort if when DC released the Nu52 another company came in and started making new classic DC stories, some fans chose to be loyal to the original company despite some changes they didn’t like, others chose to stick with what they thought to be a better improvement on the old even if it meant switching companies.... except unlike in my example here Pathfinder uses none of D&D’s copyrighted material, it’s got it’s own characters and world setting, it just uses the same rules from an open use license. So yeah... if there’s any tabletop shops that sell Diamond merchandise (all the comic and game shops around me are fairly segregated) These should do very well.
  22. is Hulu gonna stream the new dub too? cuz all that’s up right now is the sub and I got sh*t to do and can’t be reading my TV all day.
  23. So do we have a release date for the Captain America 2 minimates yet?!?! Because Venus is sitting in my Pile of Loot waiting on those SOB’s before I can ship her.
