The box pictures are up now at art asylum!

spin his head around, he came with 2 faces.---a pretty cool feature i think...

So does anybody know where all the stickers are suppose to go?? I know where the names go, but I'm not sure about the rest... is there pictures anywhere with them all on the ships?

Maybe sales are good and TrU wants to do another wave or something...who knows

If my ordeal concerning the first series of Ghostbusters minimates can serve as an example, then a well crafted email to their customer service department will likely net you a refund on shipping. (for those not following at home, I had my 5 GB sets mailed in 5 separate packages)

Judging by my shipping notification for Ellen/Simon, it seems that as interesting as my suggestion of shipping everything in a single box was, they've opted to go with the "mail it whenever and however we feel like" plan again.

I smell another hateful rant coming to MMHQ soon.

Do they send a tracking # with each shipment, or how does it work? I have 3 sets that have been located in stock for days now with "anticpated delivery" between the 26th and 28th, and I'm wondering if they are really being sent within that delivery time span???...

They have new pics of the next wave up on AA site---with Molecule man and Spiderwoman included!

Well, it looks like wave 2 is processing. I recieved an email that 3 of the sets are being sent.... I guess the other 2 will ship seperatly. Finally the wait is almost over for these!

The Viper & Raider packaging pics are up now too on AA's site.

Wave 2 packaging pics are up on AA site now.

Finally, pics of these guys in the package, not much longer and they shall be my hands!!!

There were doubts that these would ever happen, and I for one am very grateful they have!

pics are up on art asylum now for 27.

I'll wait to hear concrete word on this before I get to bummed about it.

I just want that final wave. The flyers will be a bonus, but I'm praying that final wave makes it.

I think that the final wave and flyers are a lock to hit retail. Past that I doubt anything else is produced.

I agree with ya both, and according to latest Q & A posted on AA today wave 2 will be in stores soon and he said somethng about the package shots for the flyers being up soon too---so thats pretty good confirmation, and it eases my mind about wave 2!

Maybe they could do a wave or two of few old characters mixed with the new the t.v. series that coming up too...who knows.

So is anyone as happy as me that by the end of the month, hopefully, we will finally have all the skin jobs! It totally excites me to finally have almost every main character from my favorite show!!!

mine are also on the way ---- to be delivered Wednesday ---- oh happy day! :biggrin:

DST is pouring the love on BSG right now. WOW. How long til it all come tumbling down?

Everything after wave 2 at TrU is just icing on the cake. I just want these first 2 waves to become reality then I'll relax.

Ironically, it seems the majority of complainers had no intention of supporting this particular line regardless of how they looked. So of what consequence is it then?

It is of consequence insofar as Minimate collectors hoping for future vehicles might now expect them (if they ever come) to look like bumper cars. I don't know if anyone here was really "complaining" about these, though, so much as questioning/criticizing DST's decision to release dull-looking figures that probably won't sell.

A minimate is a minimate---I'll buy them all. As far as the BSG Mates are concerned, I'm more excited for these guys than any almost any other minimate produced so far.

Even if I wasn't into these as much as I am, I'd still buy them cuz they are minimates.

I've bought almost every mate there is, and I have no idea who half of the marvel characters are (thank god for wiki), but I still buy them, and don't complain so the line keeps going and everyone can maybe get what they hope for someday!

check out Toys R Us website---series 2 is up along with a couple of ships for our mates! whoo hoo!!!

Cool, thanks for setting me straight!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!!! Welcome back, BSG Minimates!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally, after all these months, we see the glorious, wonderful, spectacular news that BSG minimate willl be coming to TRU!! Now while they are still the 5, 6, and NC set minimates, they have undergone quite a few changes. Also, there are new Tylium Cylon, Bill Adama, and Stealth Cylon Exclusives.

Pictures?? Hells yes!!

Thoughts:

Lee: Looks better than ever; hopefully he'll come with a suit-jacket.

Doral: Just awsome. Better than the proto.

D'anna: Niggles with the face again, but it may be the old Lucy Lawless licensing lissue. Love it either way.

Stealth Cylon: Finally a Stealth Cylon i can open. Nice variant to a great figure.

Tylium Mine Cylon: Not needed but totally welcome to the ranks.

Cavil: Sweetness! John gets his poncho and hat!! Here's for the hairpiece still with him.

Razor Cylon: Random, but okay??

Adama: This is just made of win. Season 4 Adama FTW.

Leoben: the old minus a jacket. Shame; it looked nice.

Kara: Um...ew?? What the hell happened to her face?? The old one finally looked like Sackhoff, and this is just all wrong.

So yeah. This is turning out very nice. Can't wait to see what's planned for the proposed second-Wave.

Long live Galactica; So Say We All.

Isn't that Natlie pictured and not D'anna?

Nope. Natalie wore all black and this is D'anna from Season 3 when she

met the "Final Five" before we knew them to be the Five.

Of course, this is just because my fav character is D'anna, and my fav Six was Natalie, however short her part was. Some things ya just gotta know.

I dunno-I guess I always thought minimate in black was D'anna, and the white one was Natlie. The one in black looks more like Lucy Lawless...

Isn't that the Natlie mate they have pictured, not D'anna?

This is the best birthday present I could've of asked for, since I was one of the ones "beating a dead horse"!

Thank you DST & Toys'r'Us!

My guess its something to do with the new BSG spin-offs. Caprica or The Plan. (hoping so anyway)
