Pants and shoes of your choice of color

Eddie Brock’s shirt http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=486&n=Eddie+Brock

Fantomex’s coat painted brown

General Ross’ face with glasses drawn on http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=572&n=General+Ross

Grey, White, or Orange hair that looks best on him.

So question to anyone who’s found these in stores:

Have you seen them at more than one TRU?

According to the In Store Locator, these have been available at a store about 90 minutes away (that would require commute over a toll bridge) for well over a week but so far none have shown up at any closer stores yet.

I’m worried because it is a sold case of 12 these might be being sent one case per some sort of ‘zone’ and the farthest possible store will be the only one to get these in.

I love how you can tell who hates Chibimoon/Chibiusa/Rini by the fact that they call her Rini.

I don’t mind her (don’t really have much of an opinion on the character really, but don’t hate her) but I still call her Rini... I just think “Chibiusa” is a stupid name.

also, sucks about the gashpons.

Superfriends!

Khal Drogo!

All Star Dark Knight and Boy Wonder cast!

Good to know Winston’s probably coming... I was afraid it was one of those BS things where they assumed Winston ‘wasn’t really an original ghostbuster’ or incorrectly assumed he's the ‘least popular Ghostbuster’ and thus didn’t warrant a figure. (the fact the Pop! Winston only comes with the Ecto-1 worried me, like they felt he wouldn’t sell)

I’m not sure how I feel about a potential lack of Jerry though... The figures they had on display are really great, but it’d be like having a Masters of The Universe display with no He-Man, just a bunch of weirdos hanging around with no lead character to tie it together. (obvious solution is to get Brad Hamilton and pretend Puffy Shirt Jerry went full pirate, I don’t think anyone would notice.)

... also I really like the wall eyes, it’s what makes them very appealing in my opinion. Like they’re all French Bulldogs or something.

great first line up!

Well I’m just gonna say this now, if, IF we don’t get Rodan and King Ghidorah, I’m gonna go on an EPIC gloat fest because I knew from the beginning THIS WOULD HAPPEN! I’ll save it until this line is confirmed done, but I’m just gonna say: DST MAKE A THIRD SET WITH AT LEAST KING GHIDORAH AND RODAN TO SHUT UP MY FAT, STUPID, UGLY FACE!!!

You don’t want me walking around all smug, DST, there will be NO living with me! I’ll be even worse then I am now! Put me place and prove I was wrong!

On a more upbeat note:

Battle Beast snake head looks pretty good on Godzilla if you want an angrier look

Wow I had no idea there were members this close by. Now I know my competition. Lol!

If it makes ya feel better Pinole TRU is really more my stomping grounds, it’s farther way but it’s layout puts the Monster High dolls two aisles from the minimates/NECA figures which really cuts down on the amount of store I need to wander around to find what I want, so I’m not *direct* competition... I just stop in on my way to Safeway.

So I buy a Pop! Every now and then, but these things:

I love these so much! They look like weird Aardman Puppets and Doc and Marty look like Rick and Morty. The only thing I dont like is the lack of Winston (and the $20 price tag stings a little too.) I mean, the fact a line of Seinfeld figures is coming out is pretty amazing.

I also hope this concept piece actually gets produced:

It might just be the greatest thing Ive ever seen.

The Pleasant Hill, CA TRU

SON OF A.... I was just there yesterday and found nothing. Oh well, 8 Iron Men and 6 Spidies... sounds like they'll still be there when I get off work in an hour.

Edit:

Quicksilver was gone when I got there (man they hid those packs well, they probably where there yesterday and I just couldn’t see them.) but that’s okay, I only wanted Spidey and Ironman...

It’s upsetting these are going up in price but Spidey’s face only got one hit so his flesh is SUPER red and that of the four remaining Ironmen not one had clean gold paint... but they’re still nice enough I guess. Mysterio and Ronan are magnificent

We could finally have celebrity mates! Like mark Hamill, Alice Copper, and so on

I would heavily doubt celebrities are included in the Muppets license, and if they are... why include them?!

why introduce an element that keeps us from getting the core cast and is a distraction to the main license “well we only got Pigs In Space Piggy but at least we finally got that Elton John minimate people have been kicking down doors for!"

I hope we can get the main cast before the line starts dipping into obscure characters (as seem to be a trend in recent licensed minimates) I’m gonna be SUPER upset if this line ends after 3 box sets and we don’t get say Rolf but got Viking Pig 3 from “In the Navy” sketch

but tentatively, I’m very excited about Muppets minimates. In fact I’think Kermit says it best:

YAAAAAY!!!!

Primes only in the first wave. Proto ultron is only in the bags (though they seem to have more up their sleeves aside from the secret 2 pack)

then who’s the red eyed Ultron between Damaged Iron Drone and Regular Iron Drone? And how is he different from the red eyed Ultron who comes with Hawkeye?

62 red Ultron is Ultron Prime (or Ultimate, there's a debate), which is the form shown in the trailers. The red eyed Ultron in the Blind Bags is a red eyed Drone, which may or may not mean that Ultron has assumed control of its form. It's the own shown in that magazine cover with Iron Man and Captain America before the trailer aired.

I still don’t get it, they look the same to me.

So wait... is Ultron Prime in the dump and the in the first wave?

I've asked before but never got a reply, are the "Concept Predators" made by Kenner that have been adapted by Neca in the works as well? Thanks!

Also... Kenner Aliens?!?! (pair them with the Kenner Predators, if you’re allowed, and that would make an amazing Blind Bag assortment. I’d say I’d take eight, but again, I can’t find that as a Macro.)

Now we just need DC Universe Classics to come back.

Do you not count DC Icons?

It was a mistake. I do not think he is packaged like that.

Packaged like that or not I only wanted the wave for Forge/Banshee/Jubilee’s hair/the villains, so Wolverine’s getting that body in my own personal collection.

I think the blind bag Predator Minimates will be to cool to resist. Thermal Predator, Billy, Danny Trejo... Whoever you get, he'll be awesome.

Why is there a thousand versions of Fry yelling “SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY” but not one of Zoidberg screaming “I’LL TAKE EIGHT!!!"

Godzilla sets are up on the air. Heavy tooling, specialty-only sales... Not a great combination.

Oh well at least I got my King Ghidora... oh wait

how "_much_" cheaper Thor is, really.

http://lukestoystore.com/marvel-minimates-series-53-thor-the-dark-world/

$3.99 cheaper

As for the Muppets, I guess we'll probably see minimates or selects next year

I bet there's bust, bottle openers, and statues but no minimates

Was perusing Monster High news (MONSTER HIGH MEGA BLOKS!!! hopefully the minifigs are in scale with the universal monster minimates), and saw some pics of the NBX minimates:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/mawphoto/16532237141/

too much Gotham talk for me to scroll through to see if this is old news or not, but there’s that.

Also, who is this Select supposed to be? Is this another original character like last year’s Hellsing or is she some Indie character I don’t know:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/mawphoto/15913769213/

She’s fun, I passed on Hellsing because he was little too cartoony, but she looks amazing... now can we get her and Hellsing as minimates in a 4 pack with the Phantom and Invisible Man please?!

I want more DC minimates, so if this is our only chance to get them, I'm sure as hell not going to let it go to waste. So get to buying fellow crusaders, the journey will be long and hard (obligatory, "that's what she said") but the prize will be sweet.

I love you're already up to bargaining... You're just blowing through the grieving steps today aren't you?

Also, I think DST knows there's demand for DC minimates they just can't get a license for them. Spending all your money on Gotham mates won't get you Nu52 or whatever not Batman 66 or SA or what not any more then buying ALL the Peter Pan minimates would have gotten Star Wars (same company right?)

But on topic, I looked up what the cast looks like... If these aren't cheaply done and have unique pieces made, Mooney and Cobblepot could be pretty cool looking but if these are "well what's the closest thing we got..." like some lines It's an easy pass

Bahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!

Oh man, this is amazing... Not the Gotham minimates, but how soul crushingly disappointing the reveal is!

It's barely DC, it's got Selects because DCC must not have wanted to make figures despite going to town on arrow/flash, and to top it off we were shown all this DCAU merch and told "nopes! No minimates!" (Just like last year with Batman 66)

I'm just laughing at how amazing this is, between just how crushing this is and the Monster High reveals I'm having the best ToyFare EVER

http://www.actionfigureinsider.com/toy-fair-2015-mcfarlane-toys-debuts-final-the-walking-dead-boiler-room-construction-set-tfny/

I don’t know how the Walking Dead ‘block’ figures scale to minimates, but this set screams Ninja Turtle backdrop to me.

It's not a NEW license though so....

shhhhh!!!! they’re also not going to make Big Bang Justice Theory League Selects, it’s called trolling and it’s fun when people don’t point out how it doesn’t hold up!
