  1. am I just missing it in the pics? but where is the Boogie Man? Hope he is still coming out.
  2. I can confirm as well. was on the invoice of my LCS for next week.
  3. ha, I feel ya. I just want Panthor. Battlecat is probably one of the best "action figures" I have ever seen.
  4. This is the way I have always been used on every other forum I have ever been to.
  5. nothing new any my TRU for several weeks now. and they only have about 3 spidey packs left out of 9.
  6. So I ws browsing the interwebs for toys and stuff and came upon this little gem. My heart probably skipped a beat a few times when I saw toys I used to LOVE when I was a kid but had totally forgotten about. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=358381 Some of my favorites: Mask StarCom Fireball Island Voltron Thundercats He-Man Gi Joe Star Wars MUSCLE Army Ants just way to many to list.....
  7. thanks for this. I was actually going to put somethign up on my site for reference.
  8. So I stuffed the first box with all my "bagged" mates. Any mate that comes sealed in a bag I usually leave it there unless I have more then one, then I take one out. I also store the rest of my mates in little bags so I dont loose any accessories. SO with that said.... Everything still fits very well. The first case I put all my promo, rare, whatever, mates in. Any "normal" mate fits no problem. Unbagged you could probably stack up to 3 mates in one slot. On the bottom tier I put all my battle beasts and more promos. The battle beasts are probably going to be one of the biggest figures next to Hulk Buster Iron Man.So I stuffed 8 Battle Beasts in there. there is a bit of protrusion so the lid doesnt sit totally flush. You can see there is about a 1/4" of buldge. however if you were to take all matesout of the bagsyou could probably position them just right so everything sits perfect. Yes Dock Ock fits no problem without taking him apart. Yes you would have to take angel/archangels wings off for him to fit. Otherwise the only thing I had that doest fit is Phoenix's base, and the 3" mates. I am still happy. I like the cases. And the Battle Beasts makes them a sweet deal. Something I forgot to mention. the Battle Beast that come in the case arent black. I originally thought they were. The armor is like a really really dark Olive green/black. Or black with a tiny bit of gray mixed in. Either way still an awesome minimate Edit: I realized that the the bottom section lid is recessed into the storage wells making them not as high as in the top section. So if I were to move the bulky figures / battle beasts to the top section there would be no overflowing buldge. problem solved.
  9. ya, generally I dont open anything bagged unless I have 2 or more. I bought 2 cases so I could open one. ok I'll see what I can do. Doc oCk might fit, but Archangel definatly needs his wings taken off. I dont think that is unacceptable. If a battle beast can fit in there no problem, then there should be plenty of room for almost all the charactors.
  10. There is already pics of KITT. will try and dig them up. http://www.artasylum.com/gallery/knight-rider-vehicles/
  11. I get my local stuff at a comic book store near my house and just down the road from the Greenwood TRU. Its called Comic Book U. It used to be a Branch of Downtown Comics but he broke away and became his own store. Its a great shop. He is my local minimate hookup. I promise you guys wont be disappointed with this case. I think its well done. I have way to many minimates to store in the 2 cases, but I will be putting my rare, exclusive, promo's, etc...in there.
  12. I disagree...... ...However, initially when they (DST) announced the Carrying Cases months ago, I thought it was a lame attempt to sell another product. ...but.... I picked up 2 today. I must say that they really did a nice job on the cases. The come wrapped in glossy paper/vinyl? kinda like a book cover. when you slide out the case. its latched shut via magnets. inside there are two trays each their own lid which snaps very tightly with the base so no loose accessories can fall out. Secondly, every other pocket on the top tray is recessed deeper for some of the bigger figures. All of the wells in the bottom tray are deep wells. Next the bottom tray's lid has recessed grooves to fit the top tray so the trays do not move around inside the case. The tray inserts are made with rather thick plastic. they are not wobbly and dont feel like cheap plastic. I feel like its really well designed and made. and to top it off with sweet Battle Beast! Nice Job DST/AA. Thank you.
  13. WE want to know!!!!! If nothing else I am getting them on my way home after work.
  14. I think they only show non-TRU stuff at this one, since it's for a showcase for potential buyers? Most of the MAX stuff seems to be going through TRU. Also, loving Sinister, roped Spidey and BAMF, but that Hulk minimate hurts my soul... but just about half of everything minimate here is going through TRU ya but they may not have the little shiny sticker.
  15. I think they only show non-TRU stuff at this one, since it's for a showcase for potential buyers? Most of the MAX stuff seems to be going through TRU. hmmm.......so based on that logic, there could potentially be mates they arent showing us!!
  16. I'm more concerned how I'm going to fit him into my plastic storage container. Yikes! you mean....cardboard carry case
  17. What I dont understand is why do all the minimate vehicles have to be cartoonized like they came out of Roger Rabbit? Can we get some real minitureized vehicles please?
  18. where is there info on the Knight Rider Mates? Seems like speculation to me.
  19. Would you be willing to pick up the three X related sets and send them to me? If you have paypal or something I can send you the money. Thanks, ARuloff Its my understanding that they are all gone now. but will check today.
  20. Just read this....."No promotional minimates at Toy Fair 2011" http://battlebeasts.blogspot.com/2011/02/b...quite-dead.html
  21. not my favorite, but the more I look at them the more I like them.
