the license as I understood it was no vehicles.
and menace or goblin, why would they say yes to one but not the other. Especially when one is an iconic character that's vehicle is quite an important element of the character

YB when was this glider conversation cause we've had gliders since 2007.
the first in the Spider-man 3 wave, then Menace in 2010 and the actual Goblin Glider in 2011. its been 8 years since the first and 4 years since the actual Goblin glider, the waiting so not pushing his luck seems a bit hard to believe

Was able to pick up the GOTG Milano from the Hasbro(?) 2.5" line for £8.99 wish is over £15 cheaper than Amazon. Am going to use it to display my GOTG mates, gonna try and hang it above my other Movie-mates in the new display cases once I get them. After seeing how well this one goes with mates, i'm tempted to buy the other three in the line, just not sure i'd have the space for them.
It's a great looking toy, my only complaint is that there's only space for three figures, which leaves Groot and Rocket clinging to the outside.
Have to say Luke, i'd suggest carrying these in the store, cause they really are quite good accompaniments to minimates.
So here's the guardians relaxing and about to get attacked by Nebula and then the three mates inside the cockpit. Am just waiting on pieces and paint to modify Star-lord for a short jacket so he can sit in it properly

Plans could've changed, but considering the blue kraang was mentioned as being in series 2 on facebook, I assume he'll be one of the retailer exclusive figures....here's hoping he's at TRU
Zak has already said. They would do Kraang again, not necessarily in the second wave.
-
There are 18 of them in the case ....... = Specialty?
from what I understood both the Mass Market and Specialty wave 1 bags had 18 so.. Zach lil help?
-
so is this the mass market assortment, will TRU and Specialty be getting some different releases *coffcoff* Mutagen Donnie *coffcoff*

might want to try the stores thread, for a quick answer

Finally About to get some proper display cases for my mates next month so have started deciding who is get displayed and who isn't. mostly doing teams and even though I am only missing warlock and magik from my New Mutants team(if you have them contact me). after putting them all out and deciding how each was posed I realised that karma looks really boring compared to the others. even those with no accessories can be posed based on their powers and make it visually interesting. I decided to grab some card and pink pens and after some experimenting I finally got a psychic halo that kinda works. I also added some elements to her hands just to make her pop a bit more. I know they're not comic accurate but I think they work quite well with her. also made some extras in different shapes just cause i was bored

If anyone can help a Uk collector get a kraang, message me please.

cause of my tendency to get multiples of mates that can have multiple looks, I have two transforming Grey Hulks from the best of 3. i'm wondering if the covers from my spare will colour match the legs
-
Finally picked up the TRU 8 Thing and a second TRU 15 Transforming Thing to have both Thing and Ben Grimm. I felt like the oolder thing was showing its age(can't believe it came it out in 2010) with the old style chest busters so used the left over pieces from the Ben grimm figure to make it look a bit like modern mates.
-
Luke if you announce Farouk, I can guarantee you will have sold at least two of that boxset
-
Seconded on a moira sticker, also is there gonna be a non screaming banished face?
-
I got my sentinel for -5 dollars around 2010 on Amazon. I don't think the 3rd party seller realised what they had when they listed it cause it was already going for over a hundred on eBay even then

pm me that link please. I'm about to move and have some room for bigger dioramas.
Also if anyone is aware of an avengers mansion, stark tower or Xavier institute let me know.

On page 32 Joeycrypts "I'm thinking the wave 6 machine hair piece for it. No head band and no painting required."
What is the wave 6 machine hair piece? Do you know if Minimate Database has a picture?
Using my phone so it autocorrect Michone to machine. The figure isn't released yet so no it won't have a picture but just Google the walking dead minimates wave 6, I believe it's the constable Michone. Dreadlocks zombie dreads looks to flat imo for Celia.

These costumes first appeared in Uncanny vol 1 258 designed by Jim Lee (in the comics Forge made them)Can anyone reccomend a graphic novel with the x-men in these outfits please?
They became par the course for years and in Uncanny 275 after the X-Tintion Agenda they became the unifying identity for the fragmented team. Logan, Betsy, and Jubes had just arrived from fighting Mandarian. Banshee, Forge, Jean Grey, Beast, Gambit & Storm had just reconnected before the crossover. The team had just put them on when Lila Chenney appeared to take them into space to fight the Imperial Guard and the fake Skrull Professor X. The team wore these throughout the space mission and through the Muir Island Saga which lead to the relaunch with the Blue & Gold team. The X-Forcers were thrown in them when they were in "jail" for a bit. Jubes wore it before the Generation X storyline. New training mutants like Cecilia & Joseph also wore them until they "earned" their custom uniform.
Oooh, good call!
Deadlock zombie is a perfect hair piece. And Michonnes are populous enough to be able to get one for cheap I'd think
Maybe TWD Michonne head and Dreadlock zombie hair?I'm in for a case of these now. Any good ideas for a head/hair combo for Cecelia Reyes?
A few questions:
Which Michonne head would be best, facial expression wise?
Anyone willing to paint my Dreadlock Zombie ears for me, if I send them the head?

My only issue with the Michonne hair is that headband. That white headband can be an issue. I have been using that hair piece on Photon/Spectrum/Captain Monica for a while.

I picked up four sets of the deadly 60 stuff at my local Toys R Us. Thanks for the heads up joeycrypts
No problem, I'm gonna try and get some the other character building lines next. there's a church set that I think would look great with daredevil standing atop it.
-
well I got the Deadly 60 sets for £2 each at a shop called Home Bargains. the HALO set was TrU for £7.
don't know where you'd get them in America. Amazon has the smaller sets like the underwater and mountain sets, along with the artic and jungle sets(which I don't have) for $20-$25 and the larger sets for about $25-$30 don't know about shipping. If there's any left I can see about buying them and sending them out if its cheaper than amazon and you can paypal me the money. all i'd want is cost and some feedback in the Flea market section here
-
the Water set looks great, but is quite fragile cause of the "water" piece and the plants have trouble staying in place but they do look great when they do.
The cryo set is my favourite thing right now. gonna pick up a couple more. I wasn't sure about the mega bloks stuff but after seeing how well the Cryo tube works i'm thinking of picking up some of the dragon and castle sets for some asgardian characters and more halo for iron man, avengers and Guardians of the galaxy.
The call of Duty Zombie stuff look pretty good for a walking dead diorama but i'll wait and see if the price comes down first
-
Picked up some of the Character building Deadly 60 and Mega Bloks Halo sets to see how they work with minimates and if multiples can be combined for larger and unique dioramas
First is the Mountain Set, took two of the same set and created this
then I combined two of the rainforest set
then the under water set, have two but only used one so far, until I work out how I want to combine them
finally is the Halo Cryo Set, perfect for the winter soldier, although he only fits in when you remove his feet
let me know what you think?
The Next Through the Ages Boxset
in Marvel Minimates

so 4 years is too soon to push for a second very important vehicle. I have my doubts
