  1. I really miss these guys. I wish we'd bet costume variations (like this!) instead of just random elf hats. But I still want more. Why are these so hard to get? What's with the general lack of promo mates all together lately? The Zombie Mate is about it for the last 3 years. :/

    Didn't we just talk about these in the Q&A thread? We've batted some ideas around.

    I totally missed that. Oops.

    I will say that the Comics pro is one of the few that I'm still missing. But honestly, retailer or con exclusive, I don't care how they get out there. More minimates are always a good thing!

    Didn't somebody here link to where you could buy the ComicsPRO mate a few months back?

  2. http://www.dockingbay93.com/

    10% off everything in the entire store, and if you buy 2 or more statues/toys/miniatures you get 25% off the entire purchase. The sale started today and ends at the end of tomorrow.

    There are Marvel Legends, Marvel Universe, DC Universe, Amecomi statues, Bishoujo statues, and plenty of other lines in stock. Tons of video game and anime figures.

  3. Wave 11 is:

    - Fantomex / Mr Negative (TRU Exclusive)

    - Betsy Braddock / Nightcrawler (TRU Exclusive)

    - Wave 41 Bulky Hulk / Iron Man

    - Wave 41 Green Goblin / Unmasked Spider-Man

    Hopefully this TRU Wave 12 will tie in with Series 42, meaning a Thor/Cap comic book wave.

    The funny thing is, over the weekend I sculpted the face I was going to use for my Beta Ray Bill custom.... :(

    I'll post pix when I get home from work.

    Eh? I didn't take those pictures.

  4. I cosplayed a couple times before I gained weight (I'm a little chubby, it's not like I'm obese or anything):

    Here I am as L from Death Note:

    And Hobo Phoenix Wright:

    I stopped cosplaying because nobody likes seeing fat people in costumes. I'm working on losing weight so I can cosplay again though.

  5. Which is sad, because I was really looking forward to buying Mr. Sinister. I guess I can buy it online, but I wanted to buy it in-store, support the LCS, and not pay for shipping. I can understand why he's not ordering new waves anymore, since I'm one of two people that buys them and I think the other person stopped collecting. He has a whole spinning rack in the toy section just sitting there with Minimates on them, but they're mostly shelfwarmers since most of the good ones have been bought already. I've done my fair share of buying so I don't think I can like, buy all of the ones he has expecting new ones to come in.

    Has anyone else had their stores stop selling Minimates?

  6. Medicom actually produced 2 waves (wags?) of kubrick dogs & a Maine Coon cat, 6-7 years ago & mine have grown on me over the years . They are known as Bawbricks which I assume is a Jap bastardisation of the words Paw & Brick. The 2 chase figures are the Disney dog Pluto & the Sony metal-robotic dog that I recall from the old Sony ads. Kubricks take some stick from people here....rightly so a lot of the time... but in many ways they had been light years ahead of Minimates.....until Ghostbusters came along

  7. Just got Nyan cat and arcade hoops for iPad,both are fun time wasters,but arcade hoops is awesome!Oh and handsome evil whats your PSN name?

    My counselor says that all video games are time wasters XD I'm currently playing Golden Sun: The Lost Age after beating the first Golden Sun. I can't wait to beat it and move onto the DS one.
