  1. I checked my local one today. Last week they had for sets on the pegs (1 Thor Ragnarok, 1 Black Panther, and 2 older animated waves). Today there were none there. Ther is no longer a peg labeled for them either so I don't know what is going on. The Marvel Legends figures are still in the same place so I am not sure if they will be placed on and end cap. I checked both ends of the toy isle too just to be sure. Hopefully they will show up soon.

  2. I went and watched it with the family over the weekend. We all enjoyed it quite a bit. I think one thing that people didn't like was that it didn't feel like a Predator movie. It had quite a bit of joking/comedy in it. I wish the tone was a little more serious.  I am a huge Predator fan and still enjoyed it though. The only thing I really didn't care for was the predator dogs. They really didn't serve much purpose in the movie, especially one of them (you will know what I mean after you watch it).

    There were some great action sequences in the movie and quite a bit of gore. Most of it was cgi, which I am not a huge fan of, especially when it could be done using practical effects. Still it is worth seeing. It was a fun "popcorn" movie. There was a lot cut from the movie too. I wonder if we will ever get a directors cut of the movie.

    Oh yeah, I also found it more enjoyable than the last few Star Wars movies, so everyone's opinion is going to be different.

  3. Next up is Juggernaut. Luke was having a sale recently and I saw the Colossus from  Avengers vs X-men minimate and got the idea for this. I still need to find a head that lines up with the eye and mouth holes, but this will do for now.

    A smarter man than eye. I couldn’t deal with Tandy not having her “tattoo”. Also, wishing I had a Crimson Dawn Tattoo Psylocke but that’s a thread for another day.

    Luke designed a Psylocke with crimson dawn tattoo decal a few years back. I still might have one if you want it. I would have to go through all of my decals and double check.

  5. I just got back from watching the movie. I think I enjoyed it more than the first. Also, I think there were 3 stingers at the end, but nothing at the very end of the movie so there is no reason to stick around an extra few minutes, unless you want to listen to a certain song about a villain that is in the movie. 

  6. They haven't released a new best of/greatest hits wave in a long time. I am wondering if that is something they stopped doing. I would love too see it brought back, but specific to teams/superheroes. They could give us a best of Spiderman wave with Spidey, Vulture, Scorpion, Elektro, Kraven, etc. An X-men wave with the Jim Lee era X-men - one wave be the blue team, the second wave would be the gold team. Then do the same with Hulk, Avengers, etc. The only stipulation would be that they would have to be previously released mates, but they could be updated in terms of looks. Would anyone else be interested in that? Maybe 2 releases a year? That would help out the newer minimate  collectors immensely and save them money. 

  7. Some people are comparing it to Empire Strikes Back due to the tone of the film, and I kinda agree with that. That was a pretty dark ending,

    So did Dr. Strange inform Stark of the one scenario on how to beat Thanos before he died? I am going to assume so. I am just wondering who is all going to be in the Captain Marvel movie now? I was expecting to see cameos from the Guardians of the Galaxy, but that isn't going to happen now. Maybe Nova and Adam Warlock?

    Can you adjust the first post so there is a giant spoiler warning? Some people may just come across this as a registered discussing excitement over the movie and not having read the mate thread where you said you would make this thread for spoiler discussion.

    It says right in the title Spoilers.
