Luke,

If we want to get the maximum use of your sticker kit, will we need to pick up more than 2 full sets of this wave?

Agreed but that didn't make sense to me. Of course they both wanted to stop Aida but it was Coulson who found a way to get Ghost Rider close. I doubt Phil would try winning that argument though.

 

And has Robbie Reyes been hanging out with Doctor Strange? That chain portal he created looked pretty familiar.

Yeah, it did seem a little off. But I suppose when you're talking about a demon who is 'summoned' by people desperate to make a deal, it's to be expected that a deal needs to be made that benefits the demon, not the person proposing the deal...

I can't say that it was my favorite part of that story arc.

Does the Spirit of Vengeance owe Phil a favor for helping to defeat Aida and retrieve the Darkhold book or was it the other way around?

Coulson's demeanor during that convo makes me think Phil is the one who owes the "favor"

which Portland location?

I just stopped by my local TRU (Tigard, across from Washington Square Mall) about 20 minutes ago and spotted them. There were 3 of the exclusive packs when I left

So impressive!  I'm always blown away by your work

I hope DST isn't checking off highly-requested characters if they make animated versions of them. That would be very disappointing.

I seem to remember Zach commenting to that effect back when we got the Walgreens Spidey 2099 - the question was raised if we would get an updated comic version and he replied that another Spidey 2099 wasn't being considered because they had just released the animated version...

Did Castlevania get shot down? I remember some chatter about it but I didn't see anything ruling it out. It's got that new Netflix series in development... 

I had posed the same question to DST a few years back when I first noticed it on all of the Battle Beast mates, and subsequently on the Star Trek Legacy line. The answer I got back then was essentially the same - some sort of byproduct from the molds

That was the "bonus" Secret Santa gift from me. I had Kris send it directly or I would have kept it for myself.

I can attest to that!  I had a really hard time passing the TMNT lair onto you after I saw it in person ?

Kris is an artist, for sure.

NerdyTrev - no rush, but we're all waiting with eager anticipation to see this dio and how you utilize it

Updated the first post to include my two latest Minimate drawings:

Extremis Armor Iron Man


Magneto

In all your adventures photographing Minimate around NYC, have you found a location that you enjoy shooting in the most?  Do you have any funny stories of interacting with passersby while you're shooting?

When I look at the bottom of each page, on the left side there is the "go to topic listing", and on the right side there is occasionally a link to the next unread topic. It's great because it takes me to the first unread post of that thread (as opposed to just the most recent post). However, the problem I keep running into - whether on mobile or desktop - is that there doesn't seem to be consistency with that link. Sometimes it will be there and other times I have to exit back to the main screen to get to the next unread topic. (And yes, I do know that it won't be there if I've read all the current posts. This inquiry is about why the link isn't there when there are still unread threads).

Is there some setting or technique I can use to easily find the next unread post?

For anyone in the Portland OR area; I came across these at the Tigard TRU (Washington Square) this afternoon. They have 2 sets of the exclusive pack.

Snickers Pumpkin

The first few photos are popping up on Facebook

I'd still like to see them finish out the Dark Horizons versions of the other 3 turtles.

This.

DST, please make that complete team happen. Heck, I'd even take a 4 pack of just the turtles in that look - with an identical Raph to the one we already got - if that's what it takes to complete that team.

Sci-Fi

I've been pretty busy for the last several months and missed opportunities to take pics of my hauls. But in the last couple days I got a couple orders from Luke and also stumbled across a few packs in the wild, and couldn't resist the urge to photograph them all together before I finally dig in

i'm about to scope out some walgreens here in Portland, Or. wish me luck!

Good luck, indeed. I've been making the rounds throughout most of the Portland/Beaverton/Tigard area for a couple weeks now and have yet to find any of the latest wave.

let me know if you come up with anything

Not that it matters, but Time Alice is in the wrong outfit. She should be in the other Alice outfit.

I like that you guys made that a variant, though. Creative.

Did anyone buying these actually see this movie? SO BAD. Alice blows up the universe because of her own selfishness. Time is the hero of the whole dang thing.

Well, I guess I don't need to see it now ?

I've seriously been longing for Megazord Minimates for the specific purpose of having them face off against my Godzilla Minimates...

I'm loving these entries. That Enterprise bridge works so well with Minimates, it's just beautiful to look at.

The deadline for this snuck up on me too, and even though I was planning on entering this contest, I doubt I'll be able to pull together an entry in time. But still, the entries in here so far are superb!

No luck tracking these down in the Portland, OR area

Here's the photo from the facebook post. I have no idea what area these popped up in, but I'll be checking my local stores after work today to see if they're in my section of the West Coast...

Edit: These were found in Virginia

I can't say that I have much interest in the show anymore, but I am very interested in knowing how these mates performed for DST. Have we heard anything about whether or not these were considered a success?
