Cause I suck and don't have a scanner, and my mother-in-law went for an accidental swim with my digital camera.

Those are all fine excuses. Does anyone have a photo of this?

I can confirm but can not provide a picture of the piece. It is a totally knew sculpt that looks like the moment of impact on top of dickless's head. It is in the full page ad for them that is separate from the other DST ads.

Why can't you provide a picture? WHHHHHHHHYYYYY?

I got my email two days ago, but I only found it in my spam filter today. I was one of the twenty questions. I wonder how many of us will make up the bulk of the people winning one...

They're back up on Art Asylum's website, see:

I have found that I prefer the look of them holding the neutrino wands by the "barrel" as opposed to the stock - this does force the hand open a bit kind of the same amount as the grip on Sarah Connor's rifle - anyone think this will do damage?

Nah, it's fine. I like to pose with both the stock and the grip at the same time XD This reminds me of a puzzle...

Worth 80 picarats

How can you have a Minimate hold the wand with both hands?

By pulling one hand out of the socket?

Incorrect. Please look over the clues that have been given to you.

72/80 picarats

Hint 1 (costs one hint coin)

From the way that the wand is shaped, you must have at least one hand vertical and one hand horizontal.

What clues? I buy a hint.

ah, awesome, thanks man, i'll have to check it out this weekend

Sure thing, two months ago, they had an endcap full of Wolverine Origins, BSG, T2, and that's we're the first wave of Ghostbusters were, as well. I just got Wave 2 at La Cienega, so the lambs will finally stop screaming. They had another full set, if anyone else is thinking about going by there...

i talking about when you were in north bergen dude, sorry should have specified. 17 = Route 17

This one:

2819 Kennedy Blvd., North Bergen - (201) 330-0829

Does anyone have the item numbers for series 2 ghostbusters so i can call around to find them?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can go here:

And click around, or simply:

Item Number: 810005

which tru did you go to ufemizm, i was up on 17 this weekend and couldn't find a TRU?

I don't know what you mean about being up on 17... I've gone to the one in Torrance, Hawthorne, Culver City, and the one on La Cienega. Nothing.

I just moved back from the New York/New Jersey area to my home in Los Angeles. I've gone to a bunch of Toys R Us stores, and I haven't seen any Terminator 2 sets, or Ghostbusters sets. I've seen marvel sets, and even the new BSG sets (wave 2), but no T2 wave 1, or Ghostbusters. Now, I know these are a bit old, now, but there was no trouble getting them in New Jersey and New York, back when they were first out. LA minimate people, did they ever make it out here? Was North Bergan, NJ an untouched minimate paradise? I'm starting to think I might have to kick myself for not pre-ordering the second waves from toysrus.com when I had the chance. But, at the same time I'm thinking - c'mon, it's LA, we've gotta get them... right? Oh, collecting.

So, I got my set, today, and I'm very happy. Miles' ears are black, but, and I don't think I've seen this anywhere else, so is his blood (!) I think it's a nice touch that they included this wound under the jacket, so I'm almost OK with it being the wrong color, but I still think if you're going to do something, get it right.

Right, that's what I hope, but I also hope I don't have to pay $20 for toys that just came out...

Has anyone received anything from these guys? I ordered the Ghostbusters 1st boxed set and got it, but I haven't heard anything about the SDCC Pete Venkman Stay Puft exclusive and I need it. I just tried to call them, and their number has been disconnected... oh, collecting.

I just got a report back from my crime lab, and I believe the "ear" was in fact a sesame seed. I admit this with embarrassment, but I hate unsolved mysteries - even so, I'm still not entirely convinced, and I really do want Blue Velvet toys. Art Asylum is releasing toys of lots of movies form the 80's - so why not be a little more esoteric? Blade Runner's been listed before, and I'd buy That for a dollar! Also, that.

I think I discovered an ear of a minimate on my desk, today, but I can't seem to find who it belongs to... this ever happen to anyone?

Also, does anyone else wish there was a third 4-pack with the busters in their blue suits, and maybe a work-out Dana with TV or maybe Winston in street clothes? Look at all those accessories...

Just got my box set in the mail - I'm glad that the Toys R Us ones are doubles because I can be more picky about paint, but more than anything else, I'm really happy that I finally have Ghostbusters toys. A long time coming. Everyone already has pics, but here are some without the top piece that everyone was curious to see:

Also, some ersatz Stripes Toys.

I know, I know, I need to dust, but I'm moving, so screw it.

They also bumped the big Stay Puft bank back to August 5th (originally it was planned to ship alongside the first minimates box set)...

Also, ufemizm, unfortunately the Delorian is not in scale with minimates.

Then I will not be buying it.

Thanks for the note.

This was posted on Art Asylum's blog, yesterday. I have edited it to only include minimates, as well as the BTTF Time Machine, because maybe it will be in scale... Sadly, this does not show when the Ghostbusters two-packs will appear. You can find the whole post here:

Wow. I know Toyrocket has him in-stock right now if you're still looking. Of course, it's been instock since last Wednesday and my order hasn't been filled yet so I really don't know what they're doing right now.

I pre-ordered with Toyrocket, as well. I called them to see what was going on, and even though I actually spoke to a person, I don't think I understood what the status of the toys were. The woman was very nice, though, maybe you'll have better luck. The reason I had called was to ask about the Ray and Slimer two-pack that is now listed as back-ordered, instead of pre-ordered (Which she explained to me was fine, and still pre-ordered), but as for my Terminator stuff... Well, I want it now, but I still don't know where to put all of it.

Chris is the dude. He answered my second email about Rocky's hair, too. Now if only they could include the things that are supposed to come with the toys in the first place...
