  1. Good luck if you try to get any of them out. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but I think I have the same stuff, and I tested it out by pouring a bit into a Minimate slipover mask, which I destroyed when removing the solid piece.

    But, on a positive note, Civil War Cap also looks really good in the ice.

    I know what you are saying. I knew what I was getting into. I like 'em the way they are. It's not like I play with my minimates in the bath tub...er....ah...wait...we never talked. :whistling:

  2. Ooh... tough luck on your CW Cap. Still, those look pretty swank!

    Maybe if you cut one open you could hollow out the mate, create a negative mold and recast them again, this time so that they open. Then you'll have an iceberg that won't hurt your mates.

    Yeah, it sucks but in my eyes I still have him and no need to buy him again.

    Wait..hollowing..negative mold...icebergs. Slow down. This is as good as I get. ;)

  3. This was my first attempt at a easy custom. Not much but I like 'em. I poured a clear polyester casting resin (Hobby Lobby) in a plastic tray. Threw in the minmate and then added a catalyst. Wait to dry and then break it out. I started these before the suspended animation Captain America was out. When I got the suspended animation Cap I cast him and that's the one I like best. Now my Civil War Cap is frozen forever. :(

  4. My army of 2.5" blanks arrived last night, along with some nudes and some clears!

    Thanks Jaycen!

    I bought 2 of the 3" all white blanks from him too. I was going to post a pic but I'm glad I didn't cos your army puts mine to shame. :blink:

  5. You would think the buyer would contact you and ask if it's ok to bid. I have had that happen to me in the past. It's a pain to go thru this but you got to be safe and protect yourself. The worse part is the buyer has zero feedback. I personally would go thru the eBay process and get your fees back and relist the item. That's just me.

  6. Today I finally found all of wave 9 (in Houston). Now I can start saving my nickles for wave 10.

    I wish TRU would put all the minimates in one section. I have to check 3 to 4 different areas to find 'em. You have to check The Iron Man section, the Spiderman area, the misc DC Super hero section and the universal monster/battlestar/ghostbuster section. Maybe this should be in a new topic thread. But right when I think I have an idea it was posted many moons ago. Better play it safe. :P

  7. Hate to burst your bubble, but BBTS is just wonky with how they list stuff. DC Mates will not be coming back and their site will show them for pre-order for a long time. For instance, they showed the Ghost Rider wave for pre-order for a couple years after it was cancelled before finally removing it. If you notice, Marvel Zombies and Marvel Wave 28 are on pre-order also and will not be re-released either. That should (sadly) answer all your questions.

    There is no God.

  8. I have just started collecting the DC minimates and I have a few questions. I have always been a Marvel minimate guy but I'm trying new things. Side note, I have googled my questions and lurked here but I still have not found the answers, so here goes.

    (1) I thought the DC minimates line was canceled? But now I see DC Direct has wave 2 on sale for preorder at BBTS. Which I have preordered. So are the lines going to be the same?

    (2) Do they plan to relaunch all the waves with the same figures in the sets? I understand no one knows how long a line will keep going. Is the plan to re-release all the same figures in the same waves?

    (3) If so, will there be any changes to the mates? Are they from the same molds?

    (4) Will the old DC minimates be worth the same amount as the new DC Direct ones? Are they considered the same?

    Or am I totally off and BBST is just selling old stock? I would hope I have not created all this in my mind.

    If all these questions have been answered, please send me to the right place. No need for the internet rage. ;)

    Any and all info would be appreciated.

    Kisses, :P

  9. I know that eBay can dictate behavior of sellers, but can it ban buyers for their behavior? I sold something this week and am dealing with a nasty buyer who has made the transaction a personal attack on me and I'm wondering if eBay will do anything about it. I won't post details until it's resolved, but has anyone had experience with this before?

    Sellers can`t leave neg feedback for buyers. This is the reason I hate eBay now. This rule makes no sense. eBay needs to protect the sellers but they choose not too.
