  1. I went to this on Friday and really enjoyed it I liked that they mentioned the first movie
  2. I really want to see Ronan(The FF baddie) and the young avengers hit minimate form
  3. Just got The Hulkbuster and Lockjaw sets on Ebay :biggrin:
  4. I'm also a UK fan man I really wish we could get these over here more easier
  5. I'm hoping Luke will be able to get hold of these if not maybe another of you fine folk could help me out
  6. Also forgot to mention the fact it also has a gyroscope for motion controlled movement Current thoughts suggest a Jap release late 2010 and a US/Europe release in Q1 2011
  7. Yep backwards compatable with DS games Also the 3DS carts will be 2GB and there have been rumours of a Mario Galaxy 3DS
  8. The latest handheld from Nintendo has created a hella lot of interest since being shown at E3 last week with power apparantly on par with gamecube/Dreamcast, a huge set of new features (3D screen, Analog slider, ability to save games to internal memory etc..) coupled with a fantastic line up of games both first party and third including: Legend of Zelda: OoT remake Starfox 3D Kid Icarus Paper Mario Resident Evil Street Fighter 4 Metal gear solid This has the makings of the greatest console ever for more info check out this FAQ Visit My Website
  9. Nice set already put my pre-order in with Luke Shame about Lizard's head but looks like a great wave all round
  10. Can anyone give me an idea of what minimates are coming out over The next 3 Months?
  11. Maybe they'll go with an updated Torment Spidey or Spidey in a sling I'd be happy with either of those TBH
  12. I love how everyone seems to have some kind of personal attachment to certain minimates it makes them seem more than just another collectable series of figures
  13. I was going to go and see it but no time soon I'll wait for the crowds to die down first me thinks
  14. Hey gledzee I may be interested in a few back issues from the clone sage run i'll check which ones i'm missing and let ya know Wow some cool stuff you've got there I used to also get Exploits of Spiderman, The complete Spiderman and Spiderman and Zoids I find W H Smith's are the best bet to pick up MArvel UK comics
  15. Here in the UK we have our own selection of Marvel comicbooks that reprint 3 US issues per Issue they are currently about 18 months behind the US (we are just starting Secret Invasion) but they are catching up quite quick and they plan on being only 6 months nehind in the future, they contain 76 pages, no ads and retail at £2.95 an issue We currently have 7 titles they are: Astonishing Spiderman - (this contains both classic and current stories and is the only title that comics out twice a motnh) Avengers Unconquered - (reprints NA, MA and main crossover stories such as Secret Invasion) Fantastic Four adventures - (Reprints current both classic and current stories) Essential X-men - (Reprints a range of current X-men Titles) Wolverine and Deadpool - (Reprints current Wolverine and Deadpool stories) Marvel Legends - (Reprints Current Cap.America, Thor and Iron Man) Mighty World of Marvel - (Reprints a wide range of current Marvel titles and never print the same titles we've seen WWH, Captain Britain, Inhumans, She Hulk, Hercules to name but a few) Any UK based fans collect these? or any US members ever seen these before?
  16. They look really cool i've never heard of the myclone line before shame I wasn't aware when they were released
  17. I noticed in someone's sig they have pics of some really cool looking mini transformers can anyone shed some light on what they are?
  18. Cell is very well designed in fact the whole line are, they look like they were lifted straight out of the anime
  19. Cheers for all the replies guys Lots of interesting points raised, I would love for the minimate line to grow and expand into different lines and increase the fanbase I just hope that they also supply enough of each figure to meet demand as when they sell out quick thats where the problem arises for example the Wolverine/Deadpool set is a B***ch to try and find because it seems that they never released enough sets to meet the demand from both minimate fans and Deadpool fans thus having to pay $40+ for them Another problem I find are store specific exclusives, being from the UK it's not easy getting all the latest mates (although Lukes Toy Store are a MASSIVE help now ) so when they release figures only at a specific american store it makes it even harder to track down I try Ebay'but the postage is a killer Trying not to sound negative now I do hope the Mates go from strength to strength as they are one of the better action figure/collectables released in years and the bigger they get the more licences they will aquire I'm sure DST could find someway to release the mates in the UK perhaps through an online store like Play.com or Amazon.co.uk
  20. So i've been hunting through Ebay trying to fill up holes in my collection and i've noticed that alot of the auctions seem to always have a high amount of bids for instance 1 auction I found had 14 unigue bidders Now obviously due to this the price of said auction rose to such high amounts that it was out of my budget which is a pain because I really want to fill my collection and after reading through the Ebay thread it seems that other people seem to find the same problem Are minimates gaining alot more attention more than just a cult-type followng? looking at the front page of MMHQ and seeing minimates being shown on Jimmy Kimel can only help gain more attention for the brand Now this is a good thing as the more they sell the more characters/series we'll see minimated but on the bad side it will possibily mean they sell out quicker thus making it harder for us to get them at decent prices Thoughts?
  21. CAPCOM Minimates series would be great Wave 1 - Resident Evil Chris Redfield (RE5) / Wesker (RE5) Jill Valentine/Zombie Leon Kennedy(RE2)/Tyrant Wave 2 - Megaman Megaman/Zero MM Baddie/Bass MM Baddie/Dr. Willy Wave 3 - Mixed Dante/Marinette Ken/Sagat Bionic Commando/Monster Hunter Then so on until we have characters from all over the Capcom universe
