The Logan-Hawkeye looks blurry so I will have to try and take another pic. (blame it on my right hand)

I'm not sure what to think about Logan's tampon? It seems ...well...not needed.

Anyways, the Iron Man....etc...pics coming shortly...

I just got home...you will have to bear with me cause I am doing this with one arm (my dominant right arm is severely sprained) here are some pics of the packages...then I'll will post some out of the package in the upcoming minutes.

I got mine today (as well as the series 5 TRU sets) and luckily mine only cost $13.99!

First for the good news:

sku #'s:

Extremis Iron Man & Titanium Man

699788727263

Captain Marvel & Black Bolt

699788727270

Cosmic Silver Surfer & Swordsman

699788727287

Logan & Hawkeye

699788727256

Now for the bad news:

When I found these there were 7 packs left:

2X Extremis Iron Man & Titanium Man

2X Captain Marvel & Black Bolt

2X Logan & Hawkeye

1X Cosmic Silver Surfer & Swordsman

So if you think about it, it looks like the Cosmic Silver Surfer & Swordsman comes one per case & the Logan & Hawkeye come two per case.

(no Scorpion & House of Spider-Man sets were left, not that it mattered, cause I had already got them when I got my series 30 set)

I'll have to post pics tomorrow. My wife had the digital camera last, I have looked for it, but I can't find it, and I am not waking her up.

(she wakes up to get ready for work at 4:30 in morning and I am not going to get her up just to ask her where the camera is)

So don't worry i'll take some pics tomorrow.

They are out! I found them at my TRU today......

Now this is what I'm talking about!

I finally got a couple of mega blok sets today in the mail. When I get them set up, I'll take a few pics.

Nice looking minimate but I was still hoping it would be Sebastian Shaw.

(#$%! we need some more villains!!)

Black Queen Jean (sounds like a Southern Rock song) is a villain. . .sort of.

I agree she is "sort of" a villain, but I just think the Hellfire Guards would be better along side a Sebastian Shaw (I guess I can always dream they will make a box set with Shaw, Pierce, Leland, etc...)

On a side note when my wife saw a picture of the Black Queen, she said Jean looked like a tranny due to the middle crotch piece.

Pardon the possibly stupid question but does anyone know when TRU usually puts new stock on the shelves?

The new stock arives on trucks. They vary from TRU to TRU as to what day they come in. There is not a set date when they arive, so you just have to ask a manager to find out what day the truck comes in and hope the minimates arrive on that shipment.

Nice looking minimate but I was still hoping it would be Sebastian Shaw.

(#$%! we need some more villains!!)

What I hope the 3 are:

Mohawk Storm

Mr. Sinister

Sebastian Shaw (chase)

(If I recall correctly the cartoon had an episode with a future Storm that had a mohawk, this would be a perfect time to release the mohawk storm, which should have been made for the Secret Wars Set!)

What I think it will be:

Brown Wolverine

90's Jean Grey

Black Queen Jean Grey (chase)

If this DOES end up being a Jim Lee themed wave (which it most likely wont), i wouldn't say 'no' to an Omega Red as well. I'm pretty sure Jim Lee designed this bad-boy for X-Men #3 or #4?

Omega Red is CLASSIC 90's X-Men. Long Hair. Should Pads. Maximum Awesome. Even though i'm gagging for a Sinister MiniMate - if it were a 'Jim Lee' series - Omega Red would make more sende, since Lee actually desihned him.

I like that idea, how about this for a line-up:

90's Cyclops-Jubilee

Omega Red-Juggernaut (re-do)

Mr. Sinister-Hellfire Club Guard (army builder)

Sebastian Shaw (chase)-Hellfire Club Guard (army builder)

With this line-up we would finally get some more villains as well.

Why Kang?

I say "yes" to Kang because we need more villains!

The more villains the better.

It is interesting that some of you are saying that their TRU Terminator mates are peg warmers, while here in Houston they actually sell well (along with the ghostbuster mates and obviously marvel mates) the peg warmers here were (and still are) Battlestar Galactica.

I myself can not wait till the new series comes out.

Awesome figure! Hopefully we get this line-up:

90's Cyclops-Jubilee

Banshee-Juggernaut (re-do)

Mr. Sinister-Hellfire Club Guard (army builder)

Sebastian Shaw (chase)-Hellfire Club Guard (army builder)

I try to have 5 or 6 of the army builders.

So far I have 6 A.I.M. agents, 6 Skrull's, 5 S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, & 1 Vault Guard.

I'll get four more Vault Guards when the series comes out and i can not wait for the Hydra's! (At least 6 of those)

Remeber you can always see reference pictures on the Minimate Database.
