  1. Double checked just to make sure. My comic guy will never ever be getting Minimates in. So, yeah. Looks like I'm on my own if I want these. I knew I should have konked Matt over the head and stolen his prototypes! Just kidding Matt. We still love you! I'm still confused. What is the "downloaded Cylon"?
  2. If it makes you feel any better, most of the major boards I go to have been having serious problems with spammers. I think some one just gave Decepticon grade weaponry to a terrorist organization determined to take over the world with spam.
  3. He demands brains. Or virgin Japanese school girls. Which ever you have lying around.
  4. Understood, sir. Sorry, I really didn't mean to sound that insane and/or excited. I sort of was, but not as much as it came across in the posts. Whew. Deep breath taken, now I am going to bed. Again, thank you for your support and help, I am extremely sorry if I alienated any of you with my esctacy. Good night. Heh, okay. I was afraid I'd have to get the tranq gun. If you've got any questions, feel free to ask. I'm kinda the resident transformers fan.
  5. Gahhhhh! Last pic too old! GAHHHHH!!! THIS pic too old!!! Notice the Carnage hentai ability...
  6. Ok first question, no headphones with any of them, I think headphones were released with the diaclone version back in the 80s but thats it second question differences between the 2 ok The first one is soundwave single tape drawer so he only can hold 1 tape in his chest he is a dark blue color now in the cartoon I believe him and blaster had a fight where they were both were left really banged up, so his tapes had him rebuilt and thats where we get soundblaster... same look but all black, and holds 2 tapes instead of 1 Bingo. Got it all the way around. Although the "Classics" Soundwave will have Soundblaster's door, allowing him to hold Ravage and Lazerbeak at the same time. Alph, Calm down. Seriously man, you're going to get a heart attack. My advice to you is to wait on Soundwave. he'll be out in a few months. If you want Blaster and/or Twincast, check Stuckakid and Big Bad Toy Store. Start there and work your way out to other stores. If worse comes to worse, try Ebay and the TF boards. Seriously, I step out of here for a few hours and a transfan comes wondering in more lost than a man on the moon.
  7. Okay. This is a very simple question. WHY did DCD go ahead and decide to use the 2.5" body. I'd have much rather them done 2" all the way across. It's no secret that I'm not a fan of the 2.5" body, but I have to question their logic on the line up. Observe. In series 1 we've got 2. OMAC and Lex Luthor. Personal preferences aside, OMAC I can accept. Lex Luthor makes no sense however. Why should he be 2.5"? Granted, he's wearing battle armor, but that's not much of a reason. If the average 6' character is 2", then by golly, his head should be in 2" scale also. Bulk him up, give him molded battle armor, longer legs, something. But don't take his out of scale. All of a sudden you're telling me that Lex is 7.5' tall in real life? That makes no sense! Wave 2, Brainiac, eh, he's a robot, I'll deal. I would have much rather preferred an animated 2" version however. Wave 3 irritates me. Killer Croc is the only one that is logical. He's in scale, I'll give him that. Ocean Master and Ares though. WTF? Both of them should be 2" high. Ares especially. He's a 6' tall man. He wears a helmet. That's it. Unlike Luthor, that armor doesn't make him 7.5' tall. He should really be the size of the rest of them. I know what it is. So far every one that's taller is a bad guy. They want to have big bad guys Vs little super heroes. Regardless of the fact that I don't like my Minimates that size, their scale is off on these. I'm just wondering how much attention DCD was paying. Or if they just wanted to snub Diamond because they CAN'T use the 2.5". I don't know.
  8. Bingo. I hope you needed that one. Sorry it couldn't be more, man. If you look at the label, I actually messed up putting "Bond. James Bond." on there. Tried to throw you off. Didn't work.
  9. HA!!! I formally apply for the previously claimed position of Master Detective, now left vacant by your utter failings! To think, it was I, poking you in the eye the whole time, not hiding AND in plain sight. The famous Holmes.... uh I mean Xybot shown to be a normal human like us all, who CAN be stumped. Oh hey and btw. it's a liitle flexible pencil with the pencil sharpener, not a magnet.... uh I mean NOW I SHALL DESTROY UOY but not completely cause I have 2 cases of Cylons on preorder with you! ROFL! No way! I want Master Detective! Okay, I have NO idea who mine is from. I received a nice package via Xy, in which there was a Christmas present. I took one look at it and knew it was the 2 SF MM packs. Elated, I promptly wet myself and opened them. THANK YOU SO MUCH MYSTERY PERSON!!! So, yeah. No name, no address. I got nothing. Master Detective... moving on.
  10. Live! LIIIIVE! I call upon this thread, to draw forth from the dead thread! IT'S AL-LIVE!!!! Ahem... Big chest Juggernaut and a Transformer named Electric. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/Twist...ashes/elee1.jpg
  11. Actually I changed mine to Remy LeBeau. There were too many Spidey characters for me to pick.
  12. All I thought there was was Gold, silver, black and battle damaged. I don't see the battle damaged one. How much per figure roughly?
  13. Only one? Only ONE?!?! "Dear DST, Spiderman. The entire universe. Especially the villains. Thanks."
  14. http://video.vividas.com/CDN1/5029_paramount/en/web/ http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/transformers_hd.html I will leave my opinions unheard, as they contain words unsuitable for children and non-transfans. I will say this though. "Jurassic Park 2 meets The Hulk" Take that as you will.
  15. *Kisses DST's feet* I love you guys! 1) Long shot here, but how about branching out into Japan (and here) by picking up the license for The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya? 2) Build-a-figures? Yes? No? Maybe so? 3) Exactly how heavy is the fan interaction and input with the Minimates lines? Do yall actually listen to us? 4) THANK YOU for the Marvel line. It got me into Minimates. There's so many things you can do with it. Please don't let it die. 5) Convention exclusive blanks. Where have they gone to? 6) Any chance of a Minimate Multiverse exclusive? (you guys knew some one had to ask it) 7) Will Minimates now be pumped out faster and cheaper than before? Will we the consumers see any kick back from any said change? 8) Any chance of any more IndyMates? I would truly love to see more IndyMates, with new figures. (Arwen from Sojorn, Mermin from Cavewoman and Jane from Painkiller Jane are names that jump to mind) Also, what was the deal with this last set? Witchblade, one of the most anticipated figures was a total cop-out. The molded parts were nice, but her paint applications were shoddy at best and her physical issues of joint structures were horrible. They extended not only to her but to the rest of the figures as well. The prototype images indicated something quite different then what we got. Magdalena showed full removable swords. The parts used are wonderful, and I'd desperately love to see a Witchblade repaint done right. Mayhaps in a Witchblade meets Wolverine crossover 2 pack? 9) Can you guys reuse parts from the LOTR, DC and Cereal mate lines, even though you guys don't own them? 10) The actual DVD that came with Darktide was awesome. Any chance of a longer Minimate movie? Also, what's with the package variation with big chested Juggernaut? 11) How about some 80's lines? GI Joe, He-Man, Thundercats, Star Wars and Transformer Minimates? Enough said. 12) There have been a LOT of quality control issues lately. Parts that don't move, snap off, ect. In the past, I'm sure a major concern has been shoplifting. But now you guys are having serious problems with the actual figures themselves. I'm wondering what steps yall are taking to correct/prevent this? 13) Seeing as how many people have reported legitimate breakage of their minimates straight from the box, I'm wondering if yall are going to do a replacement campaign? Perhaps if there are any broken minimates from was 12 & 13 (some one correct me if I'm wrong, this is the latest and when problems started right? --TM2) and up, people can send them in and you can replace them? I don't know if that's doable or not. It's something to seriously think about. 14) I have an idea for a Marvel Minimate. What aout a Stan Lee signature edition Minimate? Marvel's most famous writer, idolized in minimate form, with a random amount of them autographed. It's something to think about. 15) What are the chances of a deluxe box set? Something like an army building set or screen capture sets? A great one I can think of would be the Sinister Six, with nice packaging with 6 of Spiderman's villains attacking him. Exclusive accessories could be included such as the Goblin Glider or Carnage's tentacles. You could even go so far as a repaint, such as the Hobgoblin. While a bit more expensive, the window would hearken back to allowing collectors who like to keep their collection MISB to still be able to display it. If you threw in a accessories or even a repaint or 2, it would be a way to reuse old molds and make more money. 16) When is there going to be an "Ask DST" panel at a convention? Will you be doing more of these "Ask DST" threads? (please! ^_^ ) Once more, THANK YOU
  16. This thread is useless without pics! Clonetroopers have had there day. I demand pics of army building Cylons! ARMY BUILDING CYLONS!!!
  17. The Sinister Six Pack was released under the Marvel Legends label which in turn I don't see as Spider-Man Classics. (Yes even if they use the same mold.) You funny man you!
  18. What do you mean everything else spiderman? I thought we were just talking about the SMC toys?
