Ady aka Apocalypse!

Yes! Good one.

(You disgusting perverts. You know who you are.)

Guilty!

Who transformed Nathaniel Essex into Mr. Sinister?

Victor Shade?

Ha! He finally found us...

Welcome!

The Wendigo?

Yep! Good job.

What villian and mythical creature does Paul Cartier (a prevoius unknown camper/hunter) become?

rx78jj, I think you meant MOJO, while the are doing M.O.R.D.O.C.K. I think he's part of the first waves from the Hasbro line

Actually, its M.O.D.O.K.

I need the right foot to complete my Giant Man. I only have Galactus, Sentinel & (most of) Giant Man. My son has them all.

This will probably mean no more exclusives, but there will still be other entities picking them up and of course we can always hope the Cons get new exclusives in years to come.

Welcome Matt! Good to have you around.

Don't be a stranger cale.

The Medicom Cereal Kubricks were indeed released in the USA. In fact, the last time I saw them locally was at Tower Records who dumped the last of their stock several months ago for $1 each and still had trouble moving them out.

As far as a third wave goes... Medicom tends to keep their release numbers on these small and there are plenty of Kubrick collectors who will buy some of them.

I had 2 of these myself. Tony the Tiger is on my desk in the building I used to work in (being renovated after Katrina) and the other was the Gorilla that I dissected for parts.

Now, on the other hand, if they make the Monster Cereal mates (Fruit Brute, Boo Berry, etc), I will buy those, but only because I am a freak. I still would not see them being good selling material.

Sorry. I just can't get excited about this property.

As a premium, maybe. But as a retail product? Nope.

Neither can I! I like minimates, and all, but sheesh...

Medicom already tried this and it bombed. Why would AA even attempt this I wonder.

My 2 cents is availability...

Where were they? How could you find them? Most of us are web savy and can track them down, but what about people who don't know they exist? What about the younger folks and those who just aren't as active on the net?

I know it's a bit churlish from someone who collect block figures, but I will never understand the "big head" bobbler/Superdeformed style of stuff like this.

It's just wrong.

I am right there with you Danny. I don't get it either...

I'm also interested in the set with Aragorn and Twilight Frodo, as that Aragorn has his cloak like the others (I'd switch the head for the other one, though, so he isn't screaming).

I have this Aragorn loose but unplayed with if you want him.

OOh, might need that one. If that office were bigger and an actual office instead of a cubicle, it would look like my digs. However, I can't get away with jeans and a t-shirt...

BTW, that corporate zombies set is a must-have for me!

Blind Packaging is addictive!

Yeah, but can also be depressing and downright temper flaring...

These cereal mates were a tired concept back when Medicom did them as Kubricks...

Survey completed, now bring on the Tom Baker Dr. Who!!

Hey Bubba! Its good to see you finally speaking up. I'll see you next month and I will bring more minimates with me pal.

Also, I have been telling a few of these guys what a great artist you are. You will need to show off some work one day.

I want their jobs. To be able to work so closely with toys, get paid even for fucking up, and still be okay with killing fledgling lines and pissing off fans.

Hey, I am no ass kisser, but lets try not to bite the hand that feeds us minimates.

^^^ That's part of Brandon's response - and my question is: first, why wasn't he completely open in the past? Isn't that his job?

And secondly, why doesn't AA have someone with actual access to information overlooking the forum? What's the point of having an admin team that knows less than the members?!

You should post this over there and see what they say...

Ouch! Funny these things never get brought up at Cons.

"Thanks for all your volunteer work! Love, Digger & Company!"

Now that made my day...
